Hey,

I'm looking for a new shaft for both my nike SQ hybrid and my TM Burner 3-wood. I would like to keep it below $100 per shaft, so a decently not expensive shaft, but I definately want a good shaft that fits me. What shafts should I look at? Just some info so you guys can help me...

The reason I'm getting a new shaft is because I have been hitting these clubs too high, so I want something with a lower ball flight.

I'm not a smooth swinger, more of a fast-tempo. My SS is around 105-110.

My handicap is about a 5.

Thanks.

Grafalloy Prolaunch red should work to get you that lower trajectory. I'm actually about to pull one out of my Adams A3 hybrid in stiff flex in favor of something that gives me a higher launch, if you're interested PM I'd be willing to let it go well within your budget.

What about the UST Proforce v2 hybrid and wood shaft?

It seems like for a long time they have been a really popular shaft for players looking for a good mix between price and performence.

Would it work for my swing though? I've heard it works better for people with more smooth swings though?

I think the Proforce V2 may work, it's not especially known to be a lower trajectory shaft more mid.

I would try the V2... its a great shaft that will give you mid launch and they are only $70 a shaft, but you might be able to get a deal if you find a good club fitter. I'm looking to put one of these shafts in my driver as soon as my club fitter gets one in stock.

    • Day 29 (9 Dec 25) - PW dink and rolls as well as low flighted chips.  Dink and rolls - set up with club head toe down/heel up to promote low flight, plenty of roll out.  Low flighted pitches - club flat on the ground to get ball up a Rick more and check more.   No more than 10yds total distance - focus on getting the ball to finish near (within 10’ dia circle) the target “pin”…

    • Only ever used ShipSticks and never had a problem. It's really nice because you can ship to anywhere not just courses.  No matter what you use, I take the extra care of the clubs and wrap them in something before putting them in your bag and into the shipping box.   
    • Practicing my putting after work. I put five balls on the carpet and a mug on the other side. Once I make 3 out of 5 I can stop. If I leave any short or they go to far and fall off the rug, I restart.  Focusing on speed and hitting my mark 3 inches in front of me. Trying to gain consistency and discipline in all aspects of my putting game.
