Sorry this is my umpteenth post on here tonight, just discovered this forum and it is great!

Anyway, shafts....

I am replacing my old Taylor Made Tour Burner Irons of the past 11 years and getting some new toys. I have hit the Callaway X-Prototype irons and they are brilliant. In the UK we are very limited as to what shafts we can get as a custom order but I am visiting the USA in a few weeks and can get some delivered direct from Callaway to my friends house. But I was looking at the shaft options and there as so many! At the moment my irons have the early S-90 rifle shafts in and they are pretty good, I don't think I need anything stiffer and I am not the fastest swinger in the world but I can give it a good rip. So I guess I will go with the rifle shafts again but can some please explain the difference between the following (I looked on the Royal Precision website and it didn't explain very well):


Flighted Rifle Steel
Project X Steel
Rifle Steel

Thanks
