I'm looking to upgrade the shaft in my Ping G10 9* to a higher launch shaft than the stock 129D (just to low for me). I'm looking along the lines of the Aldila NVS as far as flight because I have it in my hybrid and like it a lot, but I wanted to get some opinions since I have not tried a whole lot of shafts. I play stiff flex shafts and my ball flight tends to have a slight fade/power fade. I also found a shaft on eBay by Aldila, but I've never heard anything about to speak of, Aldila HM - 40 Tour Gold 65 UL stiff flex w/ .350 tip. Any suggestions?

It seems that you have a few shafts in mind. Why don't you find a retailer or club fitter that has them? Set up a session where you can hit a club with those shafts.

When I went to my fitting, I found the perfect shaft. However, I was not going to purchase it at retail value. I found it on ebay for nearly half the price. I then took it to my fitter and had it pured and installed.

You might want to go this route.

As far as actual model shafts, I would suggest anything from Accra. They make a great shaft. They are distributed by UST. If you go to their website, you can see the specs of all their shafts.

Titleist 905T Accra SC75 M4 Shaft

Nike SQ 4W Accra T70 M4 Shaft
HB001 17* Hybrid with Mitsubishi Diamana Thump X Stiff Flex
Baffler Pro 20* Accra Axiv 105 Tour Hybrid Shaft

Taylor Made 24* Burner Accra Axiv 105 Tour Hybrid Shaft

Mizuno MP-32 5-PW Black Oxide Finish Project X 6.0 Shafts

Vokey 52* Oil Can Finish TTDG S400 Shaft

Cleveland 588 60* TTDG S400 Shaft

Rife Bimini Blade Putter
