Hi,

I was just curious to see what you guys think about shafts and their

manufacturers...

IMO, Fujikura is one of the best.

Hi,

ipark1303,

Accuflex, Matrix, Harrison, Graphite Designs, Fujikura, Mitsubishi Rayon, UST (including Accra and Harmon subbrands), Royal Precision, True Temper (including Grafalloy), and Aldila all make equally great products. The key is finding the one that fits your swing, game, and budget.

I have been asked this question so many times from so many customers. Matter of fact that is the most asked driver question I get.. I couldnt agree more with gas can on this.. That is the reason why there are so many too choice from, so you can find the right one for you and your swing..

The most expensive shaft may not be the best shaft for your swing, if your buying a new shaft get fitted for the right one.

I was just curious to see what you guys think about shafts and their manufacturers...

You're asking a pretty broad question and I'm inclined to agree with gas_can's remark about finding the best shaft for your swing, game and budget. Too many times I see people let marketing, tour use or their friends guide their purchases.

Accuflex, Matrix, Harrison, Graphite Designs, Fujikura, Mitsubishi Rayon, UST (including Accra and Harmon subbrands), Royal Precision, True Temper (including Grafalloy), and Aldila all make equally great products.

Ditto

I've always goofed around fitting different shafts and always come back to UST. In my R7 I have that Fujikura RE AX that has been pretty good. I'm sure if I start to lose confidence with that shaft I'll switch it back to the UST Proforce 65. In my fairway woods and hybrids I use the UST Irod.

    • LIV golf was pretty close to me in 2023, at the same course that hosted the 2023 Senior PGA.  I didn't go to either one.  I do know a few people who went to the LIV event, and they said it was pretty well attended and pretty well run.  If I had free tickets, I might show up, but I'd probably have to drive 10 miles to park to get a shuttle to come back to within 5 miles of my house.  
    • As long as "in town" means a drive of less than an hour, I'd probably go.  I've never actually been to a pro golf event, so it would be a novelty. Presumably, they'd be playing on a course that I'm not normally allowed to visit, so there would be an interest in just going to see the place. My tolerance for traffic is pretty minimal, so if massive headaches are predicted it would dampen my enthusiasm.    
    • I would definitely buy tickets and go watch a round or two.
