While fiddling with the driver shaft I constantly changed positions to see how the shaft would react. Both are higher then the Kai'li but neither reaches the level of the Ilima for example. The weaker mid section flings it through with a bit of vigour but even so, the launch is not overly high nor overly spinny. You can certainly feel the tip kick through the ball nicely. The result means you get a solid mid ball flight with midish spin levels. Just before the tip section the shaft stiffens up and then has a softer tip section where as the Kai'li stiffens up considerablly at the tip. The mid section gets gradually softer exactly like a Kai'li.

Right after that though, it stiffens up a bit.

It will feel more like a Ahina/Whiteboard under your hands. The butt section is not as stiff as a Kai'li.

However that's not really how these shafts play. If you read the standard marketing out there, that's likely what you'll pull from the description. Now, does that profile I mentioned above sound familair to anyone? If you've followed MRC's line at all you'll hear the echo of the Kai'li profile in that description. The result is suppose to be less weight with more strenght. They've also managed to reduce how much resin they required in the manufactoring process which allowed them to add more fibre in. What I managed to find out while they were coming in is that they are marketed from MRC as to have a stiff butt section, weaker mid section with a firm tip. When I was first hunting these shafts, details as I said above, were sketchy at best. Frankly I'm suprised they didn't make a AX P for the putter shaft for a lark and follow Matrix and Fujikura down that line but whatever. It appears a lesson MRC learned well with the flow of the Fubuki line in the Alpha to AX F to AX H to AX I. MRC has really kept the same feel throughout the entire line, something I'm quite pleased with. Normally, I'd split my comments across the hybrid, fairway and driver results and expectations but in this case, it really isn't required. I do have a bunch of LM numbers coming for you but I lost the sheets (ugh) and haven't had a chance to go back for a re-print of the results. The fairway and driver shaft went into Cobra S2's. 2 of the hybrid shafts are Callaway Razr's the other two in Adams 1300SS. Through various sources over the past month I've managed to aquire 4 hybrid shafts as well as a 70 and 60 gram wood shaft all in stiff flex. Given that I'm a huge MRC fan for shafts, this was certainly something I needed to try out. Details at the time were spotty but it was known ahead of time that this was going to be more of a 'budget' line, or at least from MRC's standard pricing models where most driver shafts are $360 retail.

All can be used in drivers or fairway woods.Д®ditorвЂ™s note: This feature first ran in Golfweek magazine that hit doorsteps on March 7, 2014. Most are offered in a lighter version to boost acceleration. Here are several tour-inspired wood shafts that should appeal to many amateurs. Shaft companies have introduced a collection of innovative wood shafts designed to enhance the lag and whip sought by many smooth-swinging golfers. I think this applies particularly to drivers.вЂќ Play something that allows you to load and unload the shaft without swinging out of your shoes. My advice to amateurs: Play a softer shaft that gives you the best control. вЂњIf you end up hitting the ball off-center, you sacrifice feel and distance. вЂњThose extra-stiff shafts require exquisite timing,вЂќ he said. Why? Flick talked about timing, feel and making contact on or near the sweet spot. вЂњMost amateur golfers need a softer version of the shafts we see on the PGA Tour,вЂќ Flick said. I remember a long conversation about golf equipment with the late Jim Flick. Some of the components used by golfers on the PGA Tour вЂ“ particularly golf shafts вЂ“ are not suitable for many of us. We are influenced by their choices.Д«ut letвЂ™s be honest. We pay close attention to the golf equipment used by touring pros. We want to play as skillfully as they do (or at least hit a few similar shots). This should help some amateurs feel a smoother transition from backswing to downswing and increase their club speed. Now there is a new version with a higher balance point. The skinny: Phil Mickelson has used the original Kuro Kage Black shaft in his driver, 3-wood and hybrid this year.
