The Shaft is still an enigma to many golfers and today we are excited to unveil an event that is going to fit, educate and help people enjoy this side equipment more than ever before. This is the 2023 Project X Experience.
When and Where
Dates: 9/11-9/13
Location: Dormie Club West End, NC
Cost and What’s Included
Cost is $499
Driver Shaft Fitting with Keenan Phillips from Project X
Custom Shaft for Your Driver
Multiple Rounds of Golf at Dormie Club (54 Holes)
Cottage Lodging Onsite
All Meals and Drinks Onsite
Forecaddies For Golf
And So Much More
You will play golf at this beautiful private facility with Keenan Phillips and another team member. The 2023 Project X Experience kicks off with a driver fitting the day before golf at the range of the Dormie Club and you will put your new driver into play the following day. 54 Holes of golf will take place along with amazing meals, luxury accommodations and a Shaft Knowledge Boot Camp (which is a refresher to understand what shaft tech means). Post Event, a custom version of the shaft you were fit for at the Project X Experience, will be created and sent to you.

So we are playing 54 holes of golf in essentially 2 days? Are we playing on Monday after the fittings? Is it 9-27-18 on MTW?
[/QUOTE]
No sir. Monday will not have golf after fittings.
Tuesdya morning, break for lunch. Tuesday go out again.
Wednesday morning.
Can’t wait for this to start at Dormie Club.
I will be following this closely. Project X always puts on a first class experience. Plus, seeing the guys playing Dormie Club makes this an absoute must follow.

There is a second round on Day 2 where those that would like to play again can. We urge THPers to play with those that they don’t get a chance to in the other two rounds.
Getting closer and closer gentlemen
Those are some hiiiiiiiigh quality pairings right there.
Really looking forward to teeing it up with everyone

Yeah seriously, the forecaddies at Ballyhack were exceptional at finding errant balls and the tall fescue there was no joke if you really missed the fairways. They weren’t any of mine of course….just sayin :LOL:

I know this but sometimes I don’t think the ball does.
I hit the ball straight but sometimes trees or water get in the way. Also, the wind will sometimes cause my ball to hook or slice.

no belt loops – which I have determined are not golf viable, despite being golf joggers.
No one loses here.
I’ll tell you one thing, I am SUPER excited to hit some of the PX shaft lineup again.
Still 100% convinced that the OG yellow is the ultimate golf shaft.

I loved the Evenflow Blue from 5 or 6 years back. One of the best shafts I’ve tried. I didn’t get the same warm and fuzzies from the blackish-brown one. I picked up a Riptide MX on a lark and have had good luck with it. I’m excited to see what is coming.

I have tried the yellow as an alternative to the blue I was fit into. Did not work as well for me. I still have it with a Titleist adapter if anyone wants me to bring it. [ATTACH type=”full”]9203172[/ATTACH]

So that’s actually a smoke yellow, which is a later version of the yellow.
My favorite is the original, that was a totally yellow shaft. I still have a couple around the house, maybe I’ll shaft one this week back into Cally or into a Titleist adapter for my TSR4.
