Hi, just a quick question for the instructors and those interested. Recently I was talking with a fellow player at my league and he spoke of going from a super soft tip to a medium and found his potting skills to get improve. He concluded that he was making fewer mistakes as a result of unintentional spin applied to the CB.
Now this conversation got me thinking, I went from a standard maple shaft to a Mezz WX900 12mm shaft (medium 1st gen kamui brown tip) and I can honestly say this has helped my game immensely. It's allowed me to reliably use side spin at low, medium, and high speeds however it got me thinking that I may have taken it upon myself to advance a little quickly. My question is if any instructors would agree that going to a 314-3 or perhaps OB-1 shaft would help advance at a slower pace. To not bite off more than I can chew as it were.
To be clear sometimes when I miss a shot I think back and say to myself: didn't account for throw/deflection properly, didn't stroke the ball smoothly, didn't take my time and commit to the shot, or even that I simply missed a shot with poor accuracy for that angle. I'm at the point where I think perhaps taking a step back and downwards might be beneficial rather than trying to play above my skill level and compounding errors.
Any advice is most welcome
