would you recommend tipping hybrid shafts when using them with utility irons or players distance cavity back irons.

@@hypent500 Really hard to say. I think if you want a lower launch and more boring trajectory, it wouldn’t hurt to tip it. But custom fitting is your best bet to know.

what swing weight is ideal or optimal when using counterbalance shafts. are the swing weights the same as using non counterbalanced shaft for hybrids or do your counterbalance shafts work better on heavier swing weights since you mentioned that the counter balanced shaft work well with heavier head
@va_shafts
@va_shafts 18 сағат бұрын
@@hypent500 It really depends on how you like your swingweights. Typical standard is D2. But if the heads are heavy, it could come out to D4-5. The counterbalance can bring it back down.

I did a fitting at Club Champion and was about to settle into a Titleist TSi1 head with the Tensei AV Orange, until my fitter said he had one more shaft he wanted me to try. The Drago 55g. The performance has been absolutely amazing. I always thought I needed a high-launch, high-spin shaft, but my fitter quickly quelled those thoughts and the numbers this combination has produced have been absolutely eye-watering. I had never even heard of VA Composites before my fitting, but I've been singing your praises as my friends have been in awe of the performance of the driver setup.

I’m not sure what makes this shaft so different than the other CB shafts on the market, but it certainly is very different. I’ve tried most of them. Tensei Orange (CK Pro, AV, CK), hzrdus yellow and blue, rogue white, tour spec 2.0. This shaft is about 12 - 15 yards longer and way more accurate than the Hzrdus shafts. Balls speed average was around 150 - 152 with CKs and now I’m 158-161 mph. Ping G410. So far, not having the same luck with the 3 wood, but as for the driver, I couldn’t be happier.

Hi, It's from Japan. I was fascinated by the color of "Drago."" I would like to use it, but of course I don't have a chance to try it. 65R or 65S... 3 or 4? I think that's about it, but I don't mind if it's not accurate, so I'd like to know the "CPM. " I use cobra LTDxDw and have a headweight of 197g. I am thinking of importing from Fairway Golf LA. Thank you very much.
