Dynamic Gold S300 Review – Specs, Flex, Weight

Golf is a game of moving parts.

From your shoulders, to your arms, to your hands, to your grips and to your shaft, movement has to be precise if you want to to play with any semblance of accuracy.

As much as possible, you have to dial in the variables of your swing movements; including the shaft you use. A lot of newer golfers overlook the importance of the shafts that they use but make no mistake about it, your shaft can make or break your game.

Even if you are a new golfer, it’s likely that you’ve heard of True Temper shafts. True Temper makes some of the highest-demand shafts in golf because of the advanced technology they use in production. Of course, all the technology in the world would mean nothing if the shaft doesn’t perform.

It’s time to start scrutinizing the shafts you play a bit more closely. Today, we will help you by taking an in-depth look at the True Temper Dynamic Gold S300 steel shaft: one of the most recommended steel shafts for average golfers. Is the Dynamic Gold S300 the right shaft for you? Let’s talk about it.

Dynamic Gold S300 Overview

The Dynamic Gold S300 is a steel shaft that is very commonly used with irons.

It features a high bend point, firm tip and comes in a variety of weights and flexes to suit the needs of many kinds of players.

In general though, the Dynamic Gold S300 is ideal for players with moderate to fast swing speeds. Because it has a relatively high bend point for steel shafts, it is often recommended to average skill-level players who need good accuracy from their irons; but also a bit of flex for forgiveness.

The Dynamic Gold series uses variable wall technology to impart a high degree of both flex and control. Couple that with a tour-proven step pattern and you have a shaft that is extremely consistent.

Why is Dynamic Gold So Popular?

Because of the emphasis on low, penetrating ball flight and high flex, the Dynamic Gold series is extremely versatile.

It appeals to a wide variety of players which is partly why it is such a popular shaft.

How Does the Dynamic Gold S300 Perform?

What struck us hardest about the performance of the Dynamic Gold S300 was its consistency.

Whether you are using it with your driver, irons or wedges, you can expect a subtle kick in the mi-butt section and very little deviation even on full swings.

Of course, the Dynamic Gold S300 will be a less popular choice for drivers; but some people do actually like using it with their driver because it can certainly handle your 100 MPH full swing from the box.

Dynamic Gold S300 Shaft Specs Table

Specs	Dynamic Gold S300
Available Flexes	Regular, stiff, extra stiff
Length	36.50” – 40”
Available Weights	127g, 130g
Butt	.600”
Tip	.370”

What Flexes Are Available? What Swing Speeds Do They Suit?

You can get the Dynamic Gold S300 shaft in regular, stiff or extra stiff flex.

The regular flex version would be ideal for anyone with a swing speed at or under around 88 MPH. Stiff and extra stiff should be reserved for people swinging 100+ MPH.

What Weights Are Available? What Swing Speeds Do They Suit?

The Dynamic Gold S300 comes in a 127 gram and 130 gram version.

If you are getting high club head speeds, the 130 gram version will most likely suit your needs better than the 127 gram version. The 127 gram version would be a good fit if you are swinging your irons between about 88 and 95 MPH.

Why is it So Good?

The Dynamic Gold S300 shaft has endeared itself to many players who are looking for strong ball flight, low trajectory and more overall accuracy.

It has been known as a shaft that is able to get players over the hump so to speak and break 100. It’s pretty much the shaft you’ll most likely want once you’ve made the breakthrough into mid handicap range

Dynamic Gold S300 First Impressions

The first thing that an experienced golfer will notice about this shaft is the minimal life.

It doesn’t vary much in terms of kick point whether you give it a full swing or use it on a knockdown shot.

Key Features & Performance

The variable wall design is the most important feature. It’s what gives the Dynamic Gold S300 a high bend point while still imparting consistency across almost all club heads. The performance of this shaft is marked by strong ball flight and low spin.

Dynamic Gold S300 Wedges Review

The Dynamic Gold S300 works amazingly with wedges. So long as you use the right flex for your swing speed, you will get an amazing amount of control and accuracy out of this shaft.

Dynamic Gold S300 Irons Review

Again, amazing control and accuracy. Our only gripe with using the Dynamic Gold S300 with smaller irons is that spin is naturally muted. Of course, you can combat that by pairing the Dynamic Gold S300 with irons that have robust groove design; but it’s still something to take note of.

Dynamic Gold S300 Driver Review

You’re only going to want to use the Dynamic Gold S300 with your driver if you are consistently getting club head speeds of 100+ MPH.

But if you are, you can expect neutral balance and a piercing shot trajectory.

Dynamic Gold S300 Pros & Cons

Pros:

Not butt heavy
Not tip heavy
High bend point
Great for irons
Low spin

Cons:

Low spin works against it in wedges and scoring irons
Not great for slow swing speeds

Overall Score: 96/100

Who Should Buy it?

Pretty much the only group of golfers that the Dynamic Gold S300 is not for is high handicappers.

If your swing speed is under 85 MPH with your irons, you won’t unlock the full potential of the Dynamic Gold S300. However, if you have a faster swing speed and desire low launch and better accuracy, the Dynamic Gold S300 would be a great fit.
