UST FOR SURE! I have never a club with a shaft i like better than that. It's in all my hybrids along with my driver!

However the Aldila is a great shaft as well.

Thanks, E. In my earlier post, I described what I was looking for in a new shaft, and was hopeful that folks here could share their experiences based on shafts that they had used. In reading those replies, I hoped to find one that may best fit my needs.

I've just had the Aldila NV put in both my hybrids to match my 4 wood. I notice you're already using the NV in your 3 wood, so if you're happy with it in the 3 wood...

Personally I love the Aldila NV, shots don't balloon in the wind and it just feels so solid.

Posted
If you want a lower ball flight I would go with the Proforce shafts. But there is nothing wrong with the Aldila NV's.

I put in other becasue you should try them and see which one fitts you the best. I might like the Aldila shaft, but it is not for everyone. Heck, I am not even sure that I am 100% sold on the shaft that I have.

I went with the the V2 HL in mine. One warning, though....the hybrid shafts are more stiff than I thought. I love the siff versions in the driver and fairway woods I've demo'd...however the hybrid regular flex would have been best for me.

I put the V2 hybrid reg flex shaft in my hybrids. The V2 shaft will play stiffer than it rating IMO. They are tip stiff so you can't hold back on your swing. What I like about them is they are tip stiff so you can't hold back on your swing, oh and they feel good.

Are you looking for a higher launch, lower launch etc? For high launch I vote Prolaunch blue, for low launch I vote Prolaunch red/V2. I'm looking to re-shaft my 2 hybrids with Proalunch blue regular flex as they both have stiff OEM shafts in them right now that don't work for me (Prolaunch Red and UST SR3).

I am not allowed to start a new thread here. Maybe because I'm a relatively new member. Anyways, I could sure use some help. I just got 2 hybrids to add to my hogan forged set and r7 3-wood. I got Adams A2 OS and am having a HARD time controlling them. They are regular flex graphite shafts and I swing usually around 95mph, though I slow down for the hybrids.

I find myself pulling these a lot, and then i try to correct and don't know where it'll go.

Any help?

thx.

p.s. my hogan apex's have a #3 shaft and they work flawlessly.

Clubs:

Wedges: Mizuno MP Wedges 52 and 58 degree
Irons: Wilson Staff Ci7
Hybrids: Adams Idea Tech OS 3Woods: Taylor Made R7 draw 3-woodDriver: Pinemeadow ZR-1 Regular 10.5Putter: Odyssey White Steel #1

    • I think 95% is more accurate. The leader of our course rating program shot from the hip and said 90%, but I recently read elsewhere that it is more like 95%. So we spend 4 hours or more on a course with a team of 6 to 8 people to figure out the last few rating strokes as to whether they exist or not due to difficulty. I credit this site/forum for getting my interest up in volunteering for my state association. I am marshalling for the US Mid Am qualifier later this morning 15 min from my home. We get shirts, hats, 1/4 zips, a cart with our name on it, a radio, lunch and unlimited snacks all while watching some great golfers. πŸ™‚

    • Day 2: August 12.  I did 25 balls of the ruler drill from LSW for putting.  24 of the 25 stayed on the ruler through 36" but some were smoother than others.  I suspect if the ruler (and goal) had been 48" far fewer would have stayed on.  I'm trying to go by sound, and not look, since when I attempt short putts, I don't want to look (although now I wonder if that's conventional wisdom that turns out to be wrong).
