I'm currently playing a HiBore 10.5 with the stock stiff shaft and while I like really like the clubhead, and I'm really straight with it, I also hit the ball sky high. I tested the NV65 in stiff at a demo day and I really liked the feel of the shaft but the ballflight seems to be on the opposite end of the spectrum; a whole lot lower. In reading up on this brand, it appears as if the NVS might be a happy medium between the stock shaft and the NV, is this a somewhat accurate statement?

I don' have specfics on swing speed but I can tell you that I have an average tempo, if anything my take away might be defined as a hair slower than that. I realease my wrists between mid & late and I do not pause at the top although I come close...

Am I even looking at the right shafts to begin with?

I have the OEM NVS on my FT-3 and lve it. I don't get a ballooning ballflight, but it is higher than my previous driver (TM R7 Quad) with the OEM stiff shaft. I also prefer the more mid/high-torque shaft as I have a smoother type swing. I did have an NV65 and to me that was waaaay too stiff and didn't like the feel at all.

    • Shot a +1 73 today. Pretty pleased with the round even though it could have been 3-4 strokes lower without hitting it much different. 1 topped tee shot, a thinned wedge over the green from 40yds, and 2 putts that hung on the lip all could have made this a phenomenal round. 4 birdies total. Had an interesting back 9, 3 birdies, 3 pars, 3 bogeys and a penalty stroke. Birdied 1 and 18 so that was a fun way to start and end the round.
    • Try some Tour Balatas and an Alien wedge….😏
    • Fresh out of the box. Grooves look fine.
    • Day 17 (18 May 24) - after band rehearsal this morning got home to a rainy afternoon so no outside stuff today.  Had some things to tackle in the shop, so I took the time to roll some putts on the rugs in the shop.  Able to work on tempo and distance control as I have a rug that rolls really well…so it makes for some fun work with the putter. 
    • What ball were you using and how fresh are the grooves on your wedges? I practice chip shots with my gamer, and while it's a lower spin ball I'm still able to hit it. Not necessarily the one hop then stop on a dime, but a low one that hops once with a ton of spin and trickles maybe a few feet.
