Newton Motion Golf Shaft

leezer99 · February 8

I normally wouldn't come here to promote a product but a friend of ours who has a 9th grade daughter has started using this shaft and in one day turned her week high right drives into buttery draws. Mind you, this girl is a highly ranked junior golfer and could get any shaft she wanted sent to her at no charge but they spent the $250 on the Newton Motion and it's night and day. Bunkers she was short of before she is now carrying. I have no idea what voodoo is in that shaft but holy cow it works.

Motion Driver Shaft – Newton Shafts

I've been hearing / seeing some good things on these shafts - would def be a worthwhile test to compare to my current driver shaft (Ventus Blue TR). Based on my quick review of their site, they seem to be "simplifying" the shaft choice a bit...not sure how that will translate to performance / sales though.

I agree but a premium shaft with grip and adapter for $250 is a pretty good deal.

Totally - which is why I think it could be a great way to test / compare to other options.

I ordered 5 Dot for Darkspeed LS. It will be 45" long. I'll report back after it arrives on Tuesday.

This price seems to be more on the beyond fair side of the $, my kid is using the Black Ventus tr, so I am not shy to spend the money if it improves even going one club lower on his second shot. So this carrying the bunker that she wasn't before, how many yards improvement is this? Sounds to me like at least 10 yards? If not more? If this is so.... I am going to have to place an order NOW!

Yes. About 10-15 yards for her.
