I used a set of Mizuno mx11s with graphite shafts, an earlier version of Dion's new sticks for 10 years, and they were great. I now use Taylor Made Speedblades with graphite shafts, which are fantastic clubs. Both are regular flex. For aging golfers with lower swing speeds like me, graphite offers more distance and forgiveness. They helped my game. The trade off is less feel and feedback, which I'm fine with for my mid cap game.
