The Newton Motion Driver Shaft Preview
I'm curious how they approach transition. Using speed to designate flex only accounts for a piece. I know guys that swing 95mph and load the shaft harder than people that swing a smooth 110. I'll be interested in the results people are seeing, but I don't think I'll be an early adopter.

Haha, won't be home if it comes when UPS guesses (they never show up on time anyway). Thank goodness one of my neighbors doesn't play golf. Will text him to put it inside if it arrives before we get backThanksgiving canceled in the @J4U house, new shaft testing has taken over.

The different profiles types have different placement. I'm assuming they take this into consideration?

Very similar to other ratings of shaft's possibly? I agree and looking forward to seeing how it responds.
Your point is valid and accurate, but I don’t think it is an issue unique to this offering. Almost all shaft offerings attempt to match generally based upon swing speed categories, not taking into account how an individual player loads a shaft. It is one of the reasons that we keep hearing “get fitted.” Unless a player can see numbers with a particular shaft and head combo or is familiar with the shaft from personal experience, a purchase is somewhat blind. Of course, that would be even more the case with a brand new shaft such as this offering.

These sound pretty darn awesome. Great price too especially considering it comes ready to plug into a driver hear. And the 30 day money back guarantee means they have plenty of confidence in theor product.
I love the look on these and the profile sounds very appealing. I have one sitting in the cart now I need the reason I have to get this for when the wife asks
Except for their IPO which went public at $4/share and is now .66 cents a share. Management pocketing a good chunk of the capital raise.
That being said the shafts look good and price point is more than reasonable.

Honestly, I only care about the products and if they do what they intend.
Fair enough.
I’m still extremely intrigued by this and the cameleon color change is very interesting. I wouldn’t mind a little flash in the bag. I wonder how the color holds up though.

It would hold up fine Shaft companies have used this for a while now in different products. PX has one

These CPM specs perplex me.
When I got my Nippon Regio MB+ in 5S the CPM was 262
There is no way I'm a 4 Dot or 5 Dot in the Newton Motion Shaft - I'm more like a 3 dot.

Great write up on these! Very intrigued by the different flex profiles, the color, and the fact that I can have it sent gripped and tipped all for $250. That's a pretty solid deal for something that sounds this interesting!

Very interested. Going to take a hard look and may just pull the trigger on one.

Then all you have to do it tilt it in the sun and it’ll be different. That’s the cool aspect of the finish, colorchangeycool
