Timo, It makes sense that the AP2 would be less inclined to go the left with the two shafts you tested as the are heavier than a CS Lite, the 105T a little and the DG a lot. In addition the AP2 has less offset which helps also. I would normally have suggested the NS 970 shaft as it would most closely match the CS Lite, but as you were able to hit the AP2 higher than the G5 I would actually think the NS 105 or DGSL would be best. I have had had people say that the DGSL feels a little hard/harsh whereas I have had good results and feedback with the NS 105. I would say that it sounds as though the AP2's with the NS 105's would work best. Be sure to confirm length and lie so that you get best results. Ping STD length is 1/4" shorter than Titleist which at your height may be a factor. Have your local pro check length and lie at the very least, although I would strongly suggest a fitting to confirm all spec's. Good Luck, Craig Allan Sea Island Golf Learning Center Manager/Clubfitter

Just a quick update. What can I say other than AP2's are amazing. I picked custom fitted clubs yesterday. Today I hit 40 points in first competition with AP2s in my bag. Higher shots, longer carry and less roll compared to old ones. Couldn't be happier with my purchase desicion.

Timo, well done. The advice you recieved for the Titleist people are great. they are true to the Titleist Brand but will give you independant and great advice when it comes to fitting and shaft selection. Hope you play well and improve fast now that you have bought proper clubs. G5's good for gardening. the day Lee Westwood realise that I 15 Pings dont have enough consistancy, maby then he will win some big events.

Thanks for all input. Excellent points regarding off set, weight and cast vs. forged. I was thinking along those lines and now I'm convinced. I hit a morning round with AP2 6 iron in my bag and used it every time I was around 5/6 iron range from the flag with excellent results. I did not miss any greens left side like I used to do and I reach greens with six where I have typically hit five iron this year. After the round, I went to local fitting center and we used flight scope. I tried PX5.5 (5.0 not available), KBS, etc. In the end of the day, stock dynamic gold was the best fit. Longest carry, avg. spin 5000 and shortest roll (little bit fade, but it was consistent across the hits). To cure my fade, fitter gave me tips regarding my right elbow path. Its still hard to get it to right path (I'm recovering from "iced" right scapulor shoulder blade, but thats another story) 1/2 inch shorter DG produced perfect lie angle (longest carry and avg. spinrate little bit over 5000) I selected Tour Velvet BCT Cord grips and I'll get the clubs later today. Tomorrow is the first competition whit new clubs.
