This turns an already expensive experiment into something even more expensive. If that's not a possibility (which is probably the case), please prepare to tinker with different weights and heads. Please don't buy this shaft without swinging it first or getting a proper fitting. "Cody, how could you rate everything else so well and this category so poorly?"ĭon't be dumb like me. That is a huge improvement from last season when my best days sniffed 80. Since switching to the AutoFlex, I have partial wedges into most of the par 4s, and I reached the shortest par 5 this season going driver/8-iron. My home course is generously listed at about 6,200 yards from the back tees. Rather than repeat myself, the short summary of the AutoFlex's on-course performance is that I maintained roughly the same level of control, added 20-plus yards to my Arccos Smart Distance and hit more 300-plus yard drives in the past two months than I had in the previous two seasons of playing. This combination produces high, tight baby push draws when I'm swinging my best.

Only after purchasing a Callaway Max LS head, and subsequently removing five grams of weight from the head, did I start to reap the benefits of the AutoFlex. I did not have great success, and I was considering selling the AutoFlex midway through the season.

I started my adventure by pairing the AutoFlex with a standard Callaway Mavrik head. I also hit a career best 320-yard drive this season with a little wind help with the 505X in the bag. My Arccos Smart Distance has increased to 288 yards recently.

After months of swinging it, going back to any other driver shaft is an odd feeling. If I wanted to drop some (more) cash, a custom blacked out or pink/black driver head would look nice with the shaft.Īs advertised, the AutoFlex feels very whippy everywhere but on the downswing. The serif lettering of SF505 screams "Times New Roman." If I'm being nit picky the font selection is not my favorite. The pink/black combo isn't going to be mistaken for any other shaft. I still would not classify driver as the most reliable part of my game, but there is something special about this pink and black shaft. Currently, I have about 25 rounds on its final configuration (more on that later). I've had the pleasure of playing the AutoFlex 505X for the majority of the season. With my season nearing its end, I've updated the main post with my final thoughts on the AutoFlex and also have posted them below.įinal Review: Dumina AutoFlex SF505X Driver Shaft - Oct.
