Any updates on the 105?
Would be great to see the option for shorter irons

What is the weight of the spin wedge shafts?Mike from TXG has gotten his hands on the 95g RTi and the Spin Wedge shafts. He has been amazed with both.
He made up some Kirkland wedges with the Spin Wedge shafts and absolutely loves them.
Mike is the club builder/engineer at TXG. So his endorsement and making up a set of Rapid Tapers for his gamers is huge. He has access to any shaft available.
TXG at some point will do a video review of the Rapid Tapers. Can't wait for that.

The Spin Wedge has two weights. One is 85g in regular. 100g is stiff. Since they are fairly short all ready when trimmed they retain a lot of weight.What is the weight of the spin wedge shafts?
Great info as always. A 115g sounds like it would be fun to test.The Spin Wedge has two weights. One is 85g in regular. 100g is stiff. Since they are fairly short all ready when trimmed they retain a lot of weight.
A 115g version will be added to compliment the new 105g RTi model.

I would say you need to be in the 100 mph Swing Speed at a minimum. With a good strong full swing you are really rewarded with that load and release unique feeling.Just saw the set of PTx Pros with the 95g shafts for sale. Had to come in here to learn more about the shafts. They sound like something I would definitely love to take for a spin one day. Based on the specs on the website, I would probably fit better into regular flex though.

You might struggle too much with those S flex shafts.That is what I thought. I top out at about 95 in my rapidly advancing years...
Yes I have 3 shafts made up in iron heads. I've collected data and aside from a higher force to swing the club the number were near identical.
Super smooth feel through the ball, stable and lots of control. I personally will game some in my short irons and morph into the 95, 85s as I go.
10 more samples of the prototype 105 shafts are in the way to spread out for testing.
Looking to ditch the red stripes. Actually looking at a complete change. The black is just a sample. Though I have a silver, matte black and a gold.@Popeye first off - appreciate you continuing to consistently provide feedback on these shafts! I've been a bit out of the loop for the past few months so it's glad to still see updates to this thread. I've still got a couple 95 gram RT shafts installed (6 iron and 19* hybrid) that I haven't used in a while. I felt the 6-iron was a bit too light for me, so the 105 gram shafts definitely seem like they'd be a better overall weight.
Also, I may have missed this, but is the all-black color scheme a proto thing? Or will that be the standard color for the 105 models? That was probably my only actual complaint on the 95s was the red graphic on the taper section of the shaft.
I had a set of 95g shafts made in all black without rings and minimal graphics. If it was me I would include the decals to be installed... or not... by the consumer. Make the shafts all Matte Black and run with it. The performance of the shafts speak for themselves with out any rings.I agree that it would look better without them, but can understand why there's a desire to highlight the taper better. I'm of the mind that if the product already stands out (with tapering) that you'd probably want to keep the graphics a bit more subtle so you don't end up with a super polarizing design like the AutoFlex shaft.
Then again if the performance is there, then it can still do well (Autoflex).
The gold color is quite unique. Not sure I've seen something like that outside of maybe UST ProForce shafts, but I feel like that's a slightly different color.
I'm partial to the all black look, with graphics on the underside of the shaft, if consumer feedback matters at all
