I still kind of wanna see what would happen if you cut one to 44.5
@@steveallen648 LOL this is a good joke ur funny steve
i would like to see you guys bring the shaft to the course and if you actually gain some strokes off the tee at your home course ith it
You can contact allthatgolfkorea@gmail.com for inquiry 🧐
Bryson DeChambeau is already cranking it 360+ yards with current shaft tech.
How far do you thing he could drive a golf ball using this shaft in his length?
“I know I’m gonna peak at some point, I just don’t want to do it this early”
I’ll take ‘Things you might say in either the bedroom or a club fitting’ for $500 please, Alex. 😂
I live for this
"Low in the face". Hits it 349
"Made my glove fall off ... I swung out of my glove!"
@@thatguymark8381 That is the first time I ever heard that remark.
just commented the same thing before I saw yours. lol.
Need to see this shaft hit by someone who's not a monster like Matty. Someone who normally hits it between 230-260
I know a few older guys that have enough money to buy anything but youth, club head speed and ball speed. When I show them this and your last video post of this golf shaft shaft I can't wait to see the gleam in their eyes come back. Yeah they are going to love this, please get a senior player into the lab that still has a single digit handicap, so we can see what this shaft can do for him. Great video guys.
I think I am joining the queue :-)
I would be the perfect guy for this. 53 years old, 225 to 235 carry with driver. 0 to +2 index when healthy. Hit my buddy's the other day and fell in love with the shaft.
@@davidober1199 I'm still 69 and 70 this summer, down to 200+ carry of the driver with some roll out, total 220 yards tops last year. I have 2020 Cobra SpeedZone Extreme head the Autoflex would look very nice in. Maybe Santa will come this summer early.
@@davidober1199 I'm going to add two links from a guy who has purchased two Autoflex shafts, one link tells two ways to buy it, the other link is his actual testing of his Autoflex shaft a PGA testing facility, so.
czcams.com/video/IhYaETejGBg/video.html czcams.com/video/TWIsT6eZZ1Y/video.html
Both CZcams links are very interesting..
You gotta try this shaft at 48”
I’d love to see how much distance you can get out of it.
I just did my research in Korea and found out that these shafts already has 7 years of presence with good recognition from amateurs and pros. Although the brand seems new, female pros such as Ji Hye Shin, Jenny Shin and Eun Hee Ji already won their LPGA tours with these shafts proving that it works at all stages. Autoflex is the descending models from previous Autopower. Look forward on your next review Ian and Matt!
On the back of these videos I have bought one. Have hit it a couple of times on the course and range so far. Seems to work. Don't have any stats yet but managed to hit some really long (for me) drives into a strong wind of around 35-40 kph. This surprised me as I thought it might spin up too much into the wind. Look forward to getting it onto trackman to substantiate any differences. I'm 60 years old and s/s with driver is pretty much on 100mph. Driver is a 9* Mavrik Sub Z set at 8* and previous shaft was Fujikura green Pro 65gms. Oh, I bought the new shaft in the SF5 strength.
What was the price if you don’t mind me asking
@@nacksr I'm in Australia. It was priced in Korean currency which worked out to $800USD but I got killed converting from AUD. Then there was freight and paying for it to be setup, sleeved and gripped etc...It's a crazy purchase but I suppose if you work it out to each time you use it and divide that by a small dollar figure, then so long as it does what they say, you are ok to pay e.g. $2 per drive if it's 10-15 yards longer and more often on the fairway. So far, so good. :) ps...it turned up in under half a week so that was something to commend.
@@333pg333 I would be very interested in any of your numbers after using this shaft. 800 usd is pretty crazy in a sense but like you said if it works and you break it down per drive it makes sense. I appreciate your response hopefully you can post some number if you do please tag me if you can!! Thanks again!! Good luck!!
@@nacksr Happy to do so. I just need to get to a Trackman. I'll take my old shaft (Fujikura Pro Green stiff) for comparison. I'll reply to you when I get this done. Not quite sure when this will happen. One thing I've noticed is the sound off the clubface seems a little different which seems odd. I 'think' it is because my swing speed is up and the ball is just coming off faster/louder. Not a bad thing of course. Hope to substantiate that soon!
@@333pg333 well I went to my local golf shop today and messed with a few shafts and talked about the autoflex, the guys at the shop seemed not so impressed lol but on the other hand they haven’t seen any reviews or have done any research. Back to the shafts I’ve noticed A) my shaft is great for my swing and B) all this time I was trying to swing like Matty boy at txg lol which isn’t gonna happen. If this all goes down at a group discounted price I might pull the trigger. But I’m still highly interested in your numbers comparison. Hopefully hear from you soon!! And thanks again stay well and stay safe my friend!!
Can't believe how much quality this channel has. Feels like a robbery to watch this free.
These guys are literally the o my reason I get on CZcams. Fantastic
Then don't! Become a member :)
🤫🤫
Love seeing the process of changing the heads, adjusting loft, weight locations etc. Awesome content!
This is an incredible display of technology, combined with fitting & skill by these two
This is the first new golf equipment news that I've been actually excited about in a long long time.
I think this is will amount to a watershed technology development.
Thank you gents for bringing us this content.
That much distance and that accuracy - incredible. Very cool to see the adjustments that were made and the end results through Matt's swing! So cool!
I’d like to see this auto flex with a mid handicapper, see how consistent or inconsistent this shaft helps this kind of player
You guys are having way to much fun with this!! Super cool, very interested in trying this concept out. Best golf channel on YT.
That shaft is unfreakinbelievable. The amount of bend and yet, incredible dispersion. Speechless.
Formal request: course vlog, you two strapping young lads with autoflex shats in the drivers, full send off every tee. Does the Bryson, bomb and gouge approach really work. Go low or take up tennis.
Wow!! What a shaft and what a performance by Matt. It would be interesting to see how the shaft works for slower swing speeds. Excellent video, as usual. Thanks.
Love it. Can't wait to get back to Canada and get in for a fit, promise my expectations will be a little lower. Matty is a beast!
Matty boo was walking out of those shots like Sammy Sosa banging home runs.
Zack Newman awesome 1998 reference...
i love how as a fitter when ian said 'let's try another head' and I told myself 'try a sim head set to higher with the CG moved to the toe to match toe impacts and try to eliminate the right side' and ian does just that... love it
This shaft really catches my attention so awesome in the tech y'all can come up with
I had to watch this twice to believe what I was seeing . Sooooooo Long yet SO straight great video guys thank you
Unbelievable shaft....Matt is hitting that ball... awesome.
I was admittedly very skeptical of this shaft...now I want it lol. Thanks for the video guys!
I am currently using autoflex 405...and love it..
I ain’t the sharpest tool in the shed ... or the channel but this isn’t over by any means bring on Rockin Ronnie! 👍
I’m buying one! This is like auto tune for golf. Swing as hard as you can and it bombs straight on the line! Love this video! I’m sure many customers will be asking for this shaft if it makes it on the wall!
What a great exhibition and insight into the art of fitting and the swing wasn’t to shabby either.Autoflex what sorcery is this 😳
Love the vids, guys! Thanks for the great content!
“This was a lot of fun!” Couldn’t agree more, Marty boy!
Awesome video guys. All I could do is sit here and giggle at Matty getting pumped up. 👍👍
If you need a mid handy capper to give that shaft a go,I’m game. Ian you fit me for my Rogue SZ a few years ago and it was an awesome experience.
I watched Lee Trevino at 82 years of age use it today. Obviously he is a professional that knows how to put the club on the back of the ball. He hit it amazing with incredible distance.
That was a really good one gentlemen!
I would love to see a more "average" golfer get fitted in this. Would be interesting
Agree. Idk why they can't do something like that. I'm sure there will be no shortage of volunteers. They did one with the average swing speed with Matt swinging slower - but that is hardly representative of the avergare golfer. Matty is a beast - when in full swing - and an absolute robot when he slows it down.
This vid was fun to watch. Great hits.
Great vlog boys! Loved seeing Matty at full tilt. What about Ian having a bash on the old pink shaft! 😉🤣😂
This is fitting at its finest.
Can’t wait for Monday chat, I’d say if TXG members put a bulk order in for a bunch of these we’d get a good deal ;)
Stepping on it today Matty, great stuff!
Such a cool video, loved it!
Matt isn't this the best efficiency you've ever had during a driver test, I don't remember seeing 1.44 - I could be wrong? That is nuts how efficient and straight it goes.
i hate you guys so much for making me super interested in a $700 shaft LMAO.
How do you even get your hands on one?
@@steveblee456 no clue lmao but if there's a will there's a way
@@steveblee456 good question. I'm curious too
Book a fitting with TXG!
I know how
Wow, great video.
This shaft is really something.
Once fitted by an expert fitter it’s long, fast and straight.
What’s not to like. 🤷🏻♂️
I wonder how this would go with Ian or the average 10- 15 handicap.
The golfing world must be watching this shaft with bewilderment. This could be a game changer if it were to work in the hands of an average player.
Great work guys. 👍👏🏻👏🏻
Absolutely insane! Need a course vlog with that in the bag
Matt needs to be playing that setup....absolutely insane!!
I want to try this shaft!
That shaft is full of som wizard magic! Matty needs to put that SIM combo in the bag ASAP and film some reactions from some unsuspecting golfers!
I look forward to testing this when i come for a fit off you guys
Matt is half robot. Unreal. So awesome. Great video guys.
When you mentioned it being a long drive club, it made me think how I would love to see you guys have Kyle Berkshire on the channel (when travel restrictions allow) whether for an AutoFlex Round 3 or a full bag fitting. The guy is putting out great content on improving his game, plus I'd just love to see what you guys can produce with someone with his skill set.
He would break the simulator haha ball straight through the screen. Would love to see him on though
He's sponsored by Callaway already though, I think.
@@aaron_b. True, but they've had videos of fittings in the past where they only fit to one brand. The two I can remember were Mizuno fittings, but I imagine they could do a Callaway fitting for Kyle.
Sorry to burst your bubble but Kyle Berkshire is not the longest driver on this planet it's Joe Miller from London England he carries 50% of his drives over 400 yards he has the fastest swing speed ever recorded and long drive at 157 miles an hour look up Joe Miller you'll see the second best long driver ever behind Jason zuback Who won six World Championships
@@ricktwist1935 I think he just got one upped 🥴
Awesome stuff guys.
Thanks for giving us what we want!
Great Stuff guys!!!!
What a great episode. Maybe I need a trip to TXG. 💪🏼
Put this shaft in the hands of big Al!
Nice vid, keep up the good work.
5 minutes in and watching that put my back out 🤦🏽♂️ cheers.
So freaking impressive.
Madness. Love it.
Just awesome.
Goodness that is some speed!! 340yd carry is silly 😂
Awesome new setup - hope to be able to visit once the travel restrictions are lifted!
Game changer. OMG!!!! I think I will have to pick one up one of these. Swing harder and not lose control or spray shots. What happens when the Tour boys gets a hold of this shaft. What happens when Bryson gets this bad boy at 48 inches? 210+ ball speeds easy.
He just posted a IG of him with a 211 ball speed and 400+ yard carry. Not sure if he's using the Autoflex though.
Weird Science with Dr Ian. More please!
Mattie’s 360 yard fairway finder! Different game! 😳🤘🏼
That was just plain old fun!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Matt have quite as much fun smashing drives! 😂 And that dispersion?! Ridiculous!
Take it to the course!
love the new insignia!
Ian, you need to pop one of these on the SIM and see how it does! Edit.. I should have just kept watching for 20 more secs before commenting lol.
Goosebumps when he buttoned that 372.
Holy crap.
Wooooo crazy new camera angle in new location...
2:12 that actually looked pretty good...until it didn't :D
great job gents! love the videos!!
It really goes to show how important keeping that spin in a playable range is. 1,500 is fun and everything until it starts sneaking into the tow just a little bit. That whole setup really became ridiculous when you had it 2,000-2,300. Awesome stuff guys!
Patiently waiting for these to arrive at fitters in Florida.
Awesome. Would definitely love to see a mid to high handicapper take some swings with it!
That was sick!!!!
I cant get enough of these Freaky Pinky segments. I really would love to see what its like if you hit this thing easy, curious if this thing solves a specific issue, that is some of the super stiff shafts, you always have to go 110%. Cant wait for round 3 and TSI.
I just got my AutoFlex shaft. I got just the X as I’m nowhere near Matt but still can swing around 112-115 when needed. Can’t wait to play now so I can see if there is any difference in distance from my normal spots I hit into on my home course.
This crazy shaft is really, really fascinating. I am dying to know how this thing works and how it promotes so much strike consistency with that kind of flex.
You have to take this build out on the golf course surely as the next test and video!
Time to bring in a 10 handicap to get fit for one of these. I'll go ahead and openly volunteer my services.
Booooyyyyyzzzzz take it out on the course before season end plzzzzzzz!!! 🚨🚨💗💗💗
YES!! I want to see the starting at 90/95MPH player!! :)
Matty hits it 345: “that was fun.” 🤣 Yeah I bet, dude. You guys are gonna sell A LOT of those shafts!
If I only lived in Canada I would love to do tests with TXG.
Awesome! Just fit Matti for a chipper putter and he will just need this driver and a chipper putter for those "short" 370yd par4s and par 3s.👍👍💪💪
when we're allowed to travel, I want to see you guys for a fitting!
Hurts my back just watching Matt swing like that . Lol. This is crazy stuff.
Yes! Another vote here for 90-95mph player fitting
I ordered an sf505 in Rainbow late Tuesday night which was probably Wednesday for them. It was just delivered before noon on Friday. Looks cool and excited to start fitting a head to it!
what head did you pick and what are the results? Is it worth it?
I have a TM sim on it. Using jumbo max lite grip with tour lock weight to get swing weight to D1. Results are fantastic. Dispersion is cut in half and I only have to make what feels like a 3/4 swing to keep my normal swing speed of 105mph. If I make a full swing then it’s closer to 110mph. The shaft seems to keep you from overcooking it left or right. The only down side is hitting precision hard cuts and draws is more difficult because of this. I am beyond happy
@@ryanmichael1401 Wow! This was type of feedback I was looking for as I have a similar 105 MPH SS. What length did you make it?
I didn’t cut it down so it’s playing at 46” or 46.5” I believe. When my tour fitter gets back from AZ in April then we are going to really dial it it and possibly take it down to 45” or 45.5”. Although hitting the longer length hasn’t been an issue
Wow impressive! 💣💣💣
Check out that shaft at about the 15:45 mark and beyond when Matt is holding then leaning on the driver. I had to rewind and watch it a couple times. Thing looks like a wet noodle!
I need this!!
Should use that quantix control ball that y’all tested a while back with that to pick up some more yards! Great content!
You guys make golf look to easy! Atleast in the bay.
I live in Korea and I am about 20 handicapper.
I tried this shaft (SF505X) once, and it felt really good. I normally hit 220 yards with my driver but with this shaft I hit around 240~250 without too much effort.
But I didn't buy this, because I was not sure then if the price I had to pay for this is really worth it...
Which is your driver swing speed ?
Cannot wait! I need to order one
Order me one too plz
@@tufph I second that, order me 3
New testing results show more exciting 🧐 Can’t wait to see what’s coming next and especially testing an average golfers 🏌️♂️. I can definitely will get an Autoflex fitted for longer and straighter shots even it’s $800 🤣
Come home and get that magic shaft 😆 its cost around 700$ but flight ticket not included 🙈
Deadpool I love to buddy 🤣 but 2 weeks quarantines gives me a second thought 🧐 Happy Chuseok to you and your family 😊
man this thing is crazy intriguing. how did they accomplish so much flex yet so much stability and consistency? we need a video with a couple other people hitting to see if it’s the real deal.
On average each drive was about 100 yards further than me... Such a joy to watch, but so depressing at the same time 😃...😕
Cheers 🍻
Amazeballz!
Oh Matty, those are some unreal shots, when are we taking it to the course, lets fit Ian for a driver too, and take it to the course.
Wow! I want one 😁
I plan on getting fit for my long game sometime next year. Man I would love to try this out. Unfortunately when I just got fit for my irons and wedges at my local club champion I did not feel like they tried. It just felt like they wanted to get me through it and the paperwork done. Didn't explain anything really. Thank goodness I watch you videos so I knew somewhat. Why do you guys have to be so far away? Open up a store in the Milwaukee area (more than likely you would do Chicago I know. I would easily drive there)
