Grafalloy Pro Launch Red

[Focused8]

Ive been trying to find the Grafalloy Pro launch red shaft online at sites like ebay where I can possibly get it cheaper and Im just looking for any possible sites that may have severely discounted golf equipment

lets be real...shafts are the most important part of a driver or club for that matter. I usually luck out finding shafts for cheap on eBay, but the ProLaunch Red might be tricky because they haven't been around too long so there isn't a large supply everywhere like the Blue's.

Paying the 50-75 bucks for a shaft can mean the difference between an ok drive and an OUTSTANDING DRIVE! If you've been fit properly and this is the right shaft for you, don't hesitate to pay full price. I personally like the ProLaunch Blue better, but that's the way my swing is...Good Luck with your search!

Either way, here's a few links that I came up with for the Red...

silkysmooth,

Sticking with the realistic theme, there is not one single most important factor in a club (outside of your swing). The shaft and clubhead are equally important. The head is there to dictate launch conditions and is the major factor in launch angle, spin rate, and direction. The shaft's only job is to deliver the clubhead in the proper geometry with respect to your swing. All three (swing, clubhead, and shaft) are needed to properly and efficiently launch a ball downrange. I haven't bounced it officially yet, but from what I've tried, the Pro launch red has an incredibly stiff tip, in fact, it's stiff all over, it'll be a good shaft for the highest swing speed players who are really struggling with spin rate and luanch angle. Tough fit for most guys.

Sorry but I don't agree.

Clubhead loft and design is much less of a factor than a shaft's flex/weight/stiff tipness/torque etc....the clubhead is just what touches the ball (yes I understand loft), I could give numerous examples of my clubfittings and what took place, but I'll save it.

Now, this shaft IS DEFINITELY a tough fit for most guys, exactly. And many players that don't generate enough clubhead speed shouldn't even be looking in the direction of it. Why do you think it's been a winner on tour? Because those are the type of players that use a shaft to these specs.

The counterpart, the ProLaunch Blue, gives the added high launch angle that a larger variety of players (ie most every amateur) would benefit from, not the LOW LAUNCH STIFF TIP RED shaft.

Either way, being fit properly is the only way to know for sure. So my advice is to look into it before just buying a shaft that might not be the best for your swing.
