TaylorMade is giving away 20,000 free Burner 6-irons

I have X20 regular steel shafts now. Decided to enter for a regular graphite shaft for this 6 iron... My swing speed is a little slow I think because I use my 6 iron for 150. Never hit graphite irons and it would be nice to try out.

For people with slower swing speeds, Im not so sure that graphite shafts will affect anything but increase lag. Are you looking for increased distance with your irons?

Yes and no. I went from a 30 year old set of Wilson blades that were my dads to the x20s. My distance hasn't really changed, while my flubbed shots have dropped dramatically. I'd like to have more distance, but I certainly don't want to sacrifice a straight shot. I figure if it is free I'll try the graphite shaft.
I'm really still a golf newbie; shooting in the 90's is good and low 90's is a great day for me. Been playing 2 years now.

Hitting blades is a big difference from hitting cavity back irons. The cavity backs have so much more forgiveness and allow you to hit off the sweet spot some.
