Excited to hear the review on this.

 

I'm hoping to test it at my local sim within the next week. The initial and highly sensitive garage waggles seem to be a sign of a good feeling shaft. More so than my current shaft that feels like a stiff and thick piece of wood.

 

Notification that mine will be delivered tomorrow. Now time for Mother Nature to cooperate a little here in the east coast

 

Just got ANOTHER 6 inches here in SLC. I posted a picture on Reddit this very same time last year of me golfing in February. :swoon:

Thanks to a rare warm and non rainy day here in DC area I was able to run over to the driving range at luck to hit some balls an get some swings in with this in my G400.

 

Initial thoughts are the looks of the shaft is relatively simple but slick. I like the color scheme.

 

As for the shaft I have been fit into stifff or x flex depending on shaft brand and head. I currently have the 76g 6.0 hzrdus yellow 1/2” short. The combonworjs for me but the feel of the yellow is just ok. I got this shaft to same length. Swing is still in winter mode so timing is a little off for me right now as I’ve swing a club including today twice in the last 3 months.

 

Only got about 10 swings with this. Feel is very smooth and balanced. Even though the shaft per fujikura has an ultra stiff tip to me it really didn’t feel like that was hurting me in launch or ball speed. The ball felt like it jumped off the face. There was a pretty strong wind on the range today from left to right so it’s hard to say how much a small fade was actually being moved it to the right.

 

First impressions have me excited to get more time with this.on the course and some more range time.

I commented in the other thread after a had an indoor range session. It feels phenomenal. You can feel the load in your hands but the stiff tipping section feels firm and exact. I want to get more sessions in and slated to go somewhere warmer at the beginning of March. I'll play 36 holes and will feel better about a review at that point. So far it's great though.
