I have been thinking about old clubs I have owned and in particular a Taylor Made Burner I once owned with an Aldila HM40 graphite shaft. I could hit that club further than anything else I have ever owned. This was 20 years ago so I may have slowed down a little but does anyone know of a great shaft that should be brought back.

I have requested so more information about the HM40 to golfclubshaftreview.com who have helped me out in the past for obscure requests. Does anyone have one knocking about in their garage? If so, go try it out again.

While not an old shaft I think the fubuki alpha, is the best shaft ive ever used.


I have been hitting a Callaway Razr fit 10.5 driver, I purchased 2 other shafts to try other that the stock shaft... absolutely love the project X 5.5 blue shaft. I get great distance with this club, but what impresses me is that my nice little draw is almost always in the fairway... I'm thinking about ordering a new Project X shaft just to try out their newest offering...

previous favorite shafts were by Diamana, I normally don't like the factory shafts on any drivers.


I had success with a couple of Fuji Speeders in the late 90's - 550 somethings - in driver. Smooth, didn't make me work hard.

Will be trying an Oban Revenge 50 series soon.

    • Day 33 (23 Feb 25) - Weather was nice (around 60deg) this afternoon - got in a speed round of 18 (the pro shop said I needed to be in by 5 (teed off right at 3  - thankfully course not busy and I was boringly straight for the most part). Played from the member tees to allow focus on the longer game especially approach shots.  Decent all around round - with an 86.  Lost at least 5 strokes on the green, I.e. had a number of putts 5’ or less that I missed for par….did pretty good time wise - walked off 18th green at 5pm.  
    • 2/23/25 - it’s been awhile (I’ve noticed I start quite a few posts with that). My wife is doing well! We’ve been blessed with how everything has turned out so far. But after playing just a few rounds all last year, I was looking forward to getting back out on the course. As Mr. Murphy would have it, I’ve had some chronic reoccurring golfer’s elbow intermittently flaring up for years, but have had pretty painful unrelenting bout now for 3 months despite typical conservative treatments of Ice, oral & injectable NSAIDs, steroid injection, physical therapy (to include dry needling and typical modalities) and as of last week, a PRP injection. No better. Holding out hope as the PRP injection can take a couple of weeks to take. While statistically most folks won’t need surgery, my last step is just that.  I didn’t even pay the $40 this year to keep my GHIN going since it’ll be months before I can hit a few balls.  No responses needed, not fishing for anything. Just posting since I’ve had nothing to post in a while.
