Why Pros Use True Temper Dynamic-Gold Shafts?
Many golf pros prefer to use Temper-Dynamic Gold shafts due to the variation in shaft bands and resilience of the brand. Very experienced pros can notice slight differences in the launch and spin aspects.
Some other reasons include the following:
- Accurate shaft weights
- A tremendous feel to it
- Launches balls far higher than other shafts
- Availability of many sub flexes and sharp flexes
- Increased ball spin
Macintyre, when comparing himself to Bryson Dechambeau, acknowledged that he still needs to learn from this dominant player and how he uses his driver to achieve top ball speeds.
