Anyone have any recommendations on a good, light-weighted steel shaft for my 3W?

I'm not getting the desired accuracy and am having trouble hitting it off the deck due to the flex of it. I don't care much about distance of my 3W, as long as it is longer than my hybrids(which are also steel-shafted), I just want ACCURACY.

I was thinking of going X-Stiff graphite, but it'd be much cheaper to go w/ steel.
What I Play:

Driver: Sasquatch SUMO² 9.5º Stiff
Hybrid: HiBore 16º (3W replacement)
Irons: Staff Ci6 3-PW StiffWedges: Vokey Spin Milled 54.10 60.04Putter: Newport Studio Style 35"Ball: Pro V1xAge: 15

two good choices, depending on your preferences

heavy: http://www.golfsmith.com/products/2003W

lighter: http://www.golfsmith.com/products/2007W

two quality made products, obviously sensicore will give you some vibration reduction qualities

either one of those shafts will give you control... the sensicore comes in around 125 grams and when compared to a standard graphite wood shaft (think around 90grams is typical) that'll give you some control

will hit distance a bit as your clubhead speed will drop but like you said above you're stressing the control aspect of the club

fairways hit mean more than distance
