Aldila Rogue shafts - January 2020

[Russ757]

Maybe. But when you're a tweener it does. Regardless I glued it up and heading to the range now

I'm referring to whether the profile works for your swing. In terms of find tuning, yes 1/2" can change numbers slightly. Hit em well!

[Russ757]

Nope. Too much for me

I have a question for people out there who know. The Rogue white 130 msi that comes stock in the new MAVRIK line is it the same shaft as you would buy after market from Aldila??? Very confused, hope someone has some good information.

[Morry]

Agree

same question

betting it isn’t

 

[sbolitho]

Yes!! I agree, I hope someone can chime in and help us out.

TollBros commented on this in another thread. It’s a rogue white 130 msi from Aldila, however only offered in stiff and extra stiff. The TX version of the rogue white is the Tour only version and will have higher end materials (typically), stiffer overall profile, most noticeable in the tip section.

[sbolitho]

Thank you. So it is a real deal rogue white 130 msi as offered on the aldila website? There is no TX version offered on the website like the silver and the black profiles. That would be amazing since the MSRP from Aldila is $350 and say the fairway retails at $299 that is crazy good.

[KevCannon]

Based what I have heard from different people, yes. Again, the Tour only TX version is a higher end version. I agree it does seem to be a great deal, but unless somebody who works for Aldila can chime in, that’s the info I have heard.

[Warrick]

They have a separate fairway wood specific shaft for $50 cheaper?

 

i don’t think so

[sbolitho]

Interesting. Thank you for all the responses :)

[xGameOver]

Yes it is the real deal shaft.

Aldila puts goofy retail numbers on their product and their pricing in general is just strange. For example the X Torsion says MSRP $350 on the Aldila website and Golf Works sells them for $150. I've got a trade account and I can tell you that their wholesale numbers are just as goofy at times.

[sbolitho]

So in terms of a quality shaft and comparing it to the silver and the black that comes in TX, TS and TR the white is not even close???? The silver and the black are expensive shafts so the white was essentially "made for" (haha, had to do it) the Callaway MAVRIK line???

[Russ757]

No there are all tour versions (better materials) of the black white and silver. Those will have to come from a boutique or some other place. Aldila also makes a non tour white (that is still 130 msi) for the mavrick lines and wouldn't be surprised if we don't see them in some other lines down the road.

All the whites are 130. NO DISRESPECT but you have NO IDEA WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT. Yes, weather they want to just come out and admit it or not the R, S, and X version of the white that comes with the Cally driver is a better if not best or "Higer end LIKE" MADE FOR SHAFT that may have ever been maid for that purpose. But I ASSURE YOU THAT ONLY THE Tx version is that "High end, Tour version, Elite level" shaft you speak of IN THE WHITE LINE SPECIFICALLY. The Black and Silver are ALL TOUR VERSION SHAFTS (I should say ALL FOR SURE WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION of R flex). If ANYONE tries to tell you different they just FLAT OUT WRONG.....SORRY.

Now I AM NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE NOT GREAT SHAFTS BY ANY MEANS. bUT, are you playing the exact same shaft materials in your white X that you see the guy on tour play.........NO. If that what you want in the Rogue White then you have to get the Tx version. All the whites are 130. NO DISRESPECT but you have NO IDEA WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT.
