I have a nickent evolver driver with interchangable shafts. swingspeed with 76 gram shaft averages 92.8 mph. my 55 gram shaft averages 93.4 mph. the heavier shaft goes 15 yards farther!! how can this be?

Re: swingspeed and shaft weight
I would think that f=ma. You have more mass now. The question is can you accelerate it consistently. -
Re: swingspeed and shaft weight
The problem with f=ma is that m is nowhere near the point of percussion (ie sweetspot). If m was in the head, it's a little more applicable.Originally posted by GregJWillis View Post
I would suspect that the extra weight is forcing you to engage larger, more powerful muscles to generate the "same" swing - allowing you to effectively swing faster.
Or it could be that you're now doing something in your swing that's allowing more efficient movement allowing more energy to be available for speed.
Video of the two driver swings would help.Comment
