Aldila NV

The Aldila NV Shaft is an excellent Shaft AND is a proven winner. You still see the NV in the Pro's clubs on the PGA Tour, Seniors and Nationwide Tour. Still one of my best sellers here in my Shop. When the NV is Pured/FLO'ed it produces laser like shots even in the most exotic heads out now. I've put quite few in the new heads offered this year and especially in the Titleist 909 Series replacing the stock shafts offered by Titleist. And, the NV doesn't cost an arm and a leg, which isn't all bad either.

You know the NV gets ragged on by a lot of guys that probably can't break 80, yet it is played by countless club pros, world class teachers, and pros on all 3 tours. But let's listen to the broccoli choppers that say it's inconsistent or whatever. Great shaft if it fits your swing.

Im using the NVS hybrid shaft 105s in a FT 18 degree hybrid and love it

"BROCCOLI CHOPPERS"

I hope I can use that without paying royalties!

That's AWESOME!

I was playing it in my Titleist 905S and loved it. If the pro's are playing it, it's a good shaft. THink about it they have access to every shaft under the sun.

The NV is just like any other shaft , if it fits your swing it'll work. I've tried it in more than a few OEM clubs and always felt that it played soft to stated flex. The quality/consistency of the OEM NV shafts was pretty spotty too IMO.

I think many were disappointed because of all the initial hype for the shaft. That, combined with the fact the shaft was way overpriced, its no wonder many dislike the NV.

With their new lower prices the NV is a pretty decent deal now.

I pulled the Voodoo out of my 909D2 and put the NV75 in. LOVE IT!!!!!

I've always liked the feel and ball flight of the NV as well. I'm currently gaming a pink NV 85 in my 3 wood and it's perfect. They are also available at super cheap prices.

The NV works very well in my fairway woods and hybrids. I liked it with the FT-5 as well. I didn't like the shaft in the SQ Tour.

I love the NV! I have hit quite a few different shafts and I can't really find anything that feels and performs quite like the NV. It is the magic wand for my Driver. :good:

broccoli choppers is right up there with shankapotamus in my book

I've got to get those words into my daily golf vocabulary on a more frequent basis

I keep wanting to deny that the NV is top notch, but the longest hitters i have ever played with ALL play the NV 65X....... In a variety of heads. They have 983k, Cobra 440, Cleveland COMP (2 different guys), G5 and FT-9. I really need to put a stick together w/one to test it out.

It's not the smoothest shaft out there, but it's tight and stable. I still play one in my hybrid, and I love it. You still see plenty of NVs out on tour in fairway woods and hybrids. Very few graphite shafts have had that kind of staying power.

the NV is a great shaft because it can provide you stability without the boardiness feeling.. responds great to swing changes and keeps the trajectory you want. very smooth shaft without the harshness.. if it fits your swing you should stick with it.

I had one in a 905r that was pured and it was unreal. But I just dropped it off to get a prolaunch red tossed in with an X flex shaft. I wanted something a little tighter than a stiff.

My sig says how I feel about them; it is to the point that when I am looking at woods on ebay I search NV first to see what is available in an NV shaft then look at whole clubs next. Bought 2 585h's last year and immedialtely reshfted them w/ NV 85 hybrids. Been looking for a 3 wood all weekend that had one already in it but no luck-ordered a MX700 w/ factory shaft-they say the Mizzy shafts are pretty good-if it isn't I'll be gettin' on Golfworks quickly to buy one already pured/floed ($68.00 I think right now). Think I may try that NV75 Fairway out.

Jeep,
How do you like the Prolaunch Red compared to the NV. Im looking at both for a new 09 Burner I got for Christmas.

Good news as ones in the J33r 420 I got.

[quote name='pmang' post='1574620' date='Mar 23 2009, 06:52 PM']With all the new clubs and shafts out there for 2009 is anyone finding the NV outdated? I kinda want to try one in an 09' Burner (retail). I have my Titleist Voodoo in my 909D2 10.5* and I like the smooth feel of this stock shaft. It kind of reminds me of an NV. What are your thoughts? Thanks.[/quote]

I have the 85 grams version in my fairway woods w. f60 heads and they play super for me. smooth swinging and very tight dispersion and the ball jumps for me. I am between a reg and stiff shaft, a smooth tempo swinger and the NV regular supports my swing and doesnt feel sloppy in any way. I hit the ball too high with the NV in a 65 grams regular shaft in a driver and the stiff feels a litttle tight to me, so i am using the dvs shaft in a stiff and that is working out great as the tip is a little softer but the shaft plays firm and tight because the butt end is so stiff. the DVS isnt talked up around here, but that is a newer shaft and plays great IMO if you want something newer. I have another 85 grams NV that I may stick in a driver head. I dont think you can beat the price/performance ratio of the NV if its launch/spin characteristics suit your swing.

When ever I get set up for a new driver or jut want to hit a bunch of drivers on the Trakman I always get excellent results with the NV shaft. For me I just like how it unloads but they always seem pretty soft to stated flex

NV 65 in my Titleist 909D2, as well as NV's in my 909 15.5*, 909h 19* and 909H 24*. Not disappointed in the least.
