    I just recently was gifted with a set 714 MB 5-PW stiff (S300) XP 95 True Temper shafts and the ball flight is too high. When we did the fitting in the booth at a Titleist fitting center the machine suggested the XP shaft and it felt awesome, we then took it (6 iron) outside and hit it and was awesome again. The ball flight was perfect outside for me (mid) even with a high flight shaft, but when I received my clubs from the factory and I took them to the range they flew high, losing yardage. I received the clubs as a gift so returning them is out of the question, is there anyway to hard step them or cheap option available?

    Jeffery, I have the same problem with the XP95's on my new 714 AP 2's. My specialty store owner is attempting to get the TT Dynamic Gold (low launch) shafts to replace the XP's. We'll see how it goes.

    Bill, keep me posted on how they turn out. A couple of club fitters suggested that same shaft to me and they are steering me away from stepping them because it may not work well. I just hope that the DG shafts do not feel clunky or they are too heavy and take away from the feel that these xp shafts have.
