It can be either. Most driver shafts are 46" uncut. Rock Bottom is a reputable dealer. Just make sure it is the right size tip diameter for whatever you want to put it in. You can find that stuff on the manufactures websites.

Thanks very much haha :)
Yea, when I seen 45* I thought it could have just been a fairway wood shaft, I always have my gear fit for me and I fit it myself. But when i do that every thing is labled haha :)
Looks like a nice shaft to put in my backup driver!

Sorry for bumping this bit I have another question.

Could I buy that Prolaunch Red shaft, it's 45* and get it cut down to 43* would that change the stiffness of the golf shaft. this is if I ended up putting it in a 3 wood.

ProLaunch Red is designed for stronger swingers seeking a boring, penetrating trajectory. ProLaunch Red incorporates Grafalloy's proprietary Micro-Mesh Tip technology to strike the perfect balance of top stiffness, stability and spin control while preserving critical feel for drives that fly long, straight and roll forever. This shaft is designed specifically to optimize ball flight in today's high-performance fairway woods. from their web site

I believe the stiffness only changes if you cut from the tip, as long as your cutting from the butt you will be ok.

Clearly a driver shaft. I've actually got the exact same one sitting next to my bed as we type. 65g is a bit light for a FW. you want it a bit heavier man.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.

      I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
