This doesn't sound good, what'd you do Desmond?On your follow-through, avoid having it rebound against your back at the finish of a swing.

I discussed this with my fitter, and what I saw on video of another golfer is a hard rebound on the back and a shatter. About 10 days ago, mine went down - seems to be its Achilles Heel as to endurance, although the warranty had me in a new shaft in a few days. This shaft is so good that I don't care - I don't get to hit it 270+ at times under real conditions with any other shaft, not with my lack of speed.
During the last few minutes of my son's lesson, I jumped on the Trackman and worked on my follow through. No need to hit the back, although it can happen when tired with a lack of athleticism.
glad to hear the warranty came through for you, but man i don't like hearing these durability issues for a product that by testimonial seems to be damn good
They've been out for only, what, about 8 months on the market. Prototypes started early last Fall. I'm not concerned about the evolution and their success. Lively, consistent, low spin, great launch and distance - I'm in a G400/Max at 9 degrees and can launch it 14-16 degrees, mid-high with a 90-92 SS.
i don't doubt the performance. but if i paid that much money for a shaft that has broken what, twice on you in 8 months, it would be a concern. again, awesome that they're doing right by the consumer and replacing the shafts that fail. and i hope they get it figure out because, again, it sounds like they perform beautifully.
You're a beast my friend. HahahI discussed this with my fitter, and what I saw on video of another golfer is a hard rebound on the back and a shatter.

This shaft is so good that I don't care - I don't get to hit it 270+ several times under real conditions during one round with any other shaft, not with my lack of speed.

I've put an absolute beating on mine basically trying to wear it and break it and haven't yet. You'll get your chance next week.i don't doubt the performance. but if i paid that much money for a shaft that has broken what, twice on you in 8 months, it would be a concern. again, awesome that they're doing right by the consumer and replacing the shafts that fail. and i hope they get it figure out because, again, it sounds like they perform beautifully.

Oh now this has me all sorts of excited to hear.TPT has prototype iron shafts -- even have them at +130g -- believe that project is just starting. I hit a few. He would not tell me which I'd hit, and I could not get a handle on which shaft was stiff or softer - but he laughed when I said I like this one ... and he said, that's 130g. A bit too heavy for me .... but promising in the future.

I know who has those shafts now......

Of course you do. I need to hit them on the grass next time I'm at a lesson.
James, I have found out that the Leadbetter place has some but not the extended Blue line. Any idea what that means? or maybe Desmond might know, maybe the older version?

Mine will be there this week. Feel free.I am avoiding going to David Leadbetter until after the Bay Hill / Grand Cypress weekend of fun, hate to blow the budget on one shaft....or 2
Exactly how I describe it as well.With all that I e read about this shaft, I went and did a star fitting while I was in Vegas a couple of weeks ago. Feel wise I’ve never felt anything like it before. Stable and connected would be how I describe it. Dropped the coin on it and now just waiting for the LKP16 to come in the mail.
