I have a question. How can some sellers on ebay sell brand new shafts for so cheap? Like they have Adila VS Proto shafts on there selling for $50/new. These retail for almost $200.
How can it be possible? Warehouse bulk sale? Minor Defects that the consumer won't notice?

They are not fakes. I have purchased over ten Aldila VS's on ebay with no problems. Graphite design Purple Ice and PM702 also not cheap shafts at the local shop go for a fraction of the price on ebay. I have purchased 20 shafts on ebay and they are all legit from a place in CA Proshopwearhouse.

Some of them are pullouts, so they might have cosmetic sctatches, but other than that there are no differences. It's always good to buy from a authorized dealer with a high rating though.

There are now a lot of fake shafts on ebay. Another site has a number of threads on how to identify them. Be very careful.

I've bought clubs from proshopwarehouse, but this one is in Ohio. I don't know where they get their stuff, but their clubs usually have replacement shafts or "custom" shafts. Maybe they pull the good shafts and sell them separately?

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
