At THP, we believe that testing should be done not only by us, but also by golfers just like you. One of the cool features about being an active member of the THP Forum is that we look to you guys/gals, the consumers, to give feedback on equipment to golfers all around the world. Each month we send out iron sets, drivers, hybrids, putters, trainings aids and golf balls to our active members to be a part of the THP Forum Member testing. So, who wants to test the brand new Steelfiber Nexus shaft?

Steelfiber Nexus Shaft
A few weeks ago, the Steelfiber Nexus officially became public and if you missed our preview article on it, you can find that here. Here is Don Brown, Vice President of Marketing and Innovation for True Temper:
“The Steelfiber Nexus series is a true milestone in golf shaft technology. With Nexus, we’ve combined the trusted performance of Steelfiber with a new level of innovation, offering players tailored solutions for both enhanced launch and ultimate control.”
Criteria
We will select a group of 5 THPers that will join THP’s Education Director @Jman for this testing. If selected you will get a rundown prior to ordering of the posting and review expectations. If you have questions beforehand, do not hesitate to ask below.
You must be able to check in on the forum thread daily (or close to it) to discuss and answer questions.
Please note: You will be reviewing the golf shaft for a period of two months and then it is yours to keep. If you cannot commit to this length of testing please do not signup.

Fun test on what looks to be a promising product. Great way to get the feet wet reviewing some products.
This is awesome! If I wasn’t going to shaft up in Sept I’d hop in on this. Good luck to everyone entering!!!

Good luck everyone. Look forward to seeing those selected and their feedback!
Sounds like a really interesting product. How they are weaving the steel fiber mesh up top and a more traditional graphite composite in the mid and low sections. I’m imagining a shaft that one can easily ‘crack the whip’ with. Interesting.
I’m locked in with Driver shaft for this season but I’m very curious on the feedback this one gets from a group of forum members. Excited to see who I’ll be reading feedback from! Good luck all.
Best of luck to everyone! Can’t wait for the reviews!
Great opportunity! Good luck to all that sign up!
I saw these in person a couple weeks ago. They look good. Good luck to all those who enter.
This is going to be a fun one to follow along with!

What prime timing after some of the convo in today’s AMA about getting tapped.
Want that shot? Get involved. What better way than forum testing to get involved? Stop standing on the sidelines and JUMP IN.
Plus, if THIS release doesn’t intrigue you, then maybe you didn’t read our release piece on it.

These look really sharp, especially the blue!

Or both. ?
This is SO intriguing. I would love to try these, and it would be a great point of comparison prior to going into the Diamana Experience. Enjoyed the Steelfiber iron shafts when I used to play them so it would be cool to make that comparison also. Thanks to THP for the opportunity!
Step 1 – Tell us what driver shaft you currently play? Project X HZRDUS Black 5G 6.0 / Stiff flex
Step 2 – What driver head will this be going into? Titleist GT3
Step 3 – What Flex and Weight do you typically play? 55-65g range. Stiff flex but I’ve been experimenting with X as well lately.
I did not get along with Steelfiber iron shafts at all but these are intriguing. Looking forward to hearing the thoughts of testers.
This one is very intriguing. [USER=1579]@Jman[/USER] will you have both shafts to have a comparison between the two?

Hopefully! There’s a lot I’m curious about there in a side by side.
THP has been on fire with testing in 2025.
Good luck to all that enter. I would love to enter these, but golf season up north is not yet available to give a good detailed analysis for me. I know others will play early and in colder weather.
Looking forward to reading these.

I am interested in the feel between the two. I would definitely be interested in the Blue for more carry, but the stability of the Black could be the ticket.
I loved my Steelfiber iron shafts, so testing the new Steelfiber Nexus in my driver sounds like a blast, thanks for the opportunity!

I’m assuming the launch of the black is on the low side of low. I typically prefer lower launching shafts but I’ve found the Dynapower Carbon head I’m currently playing doesn’t need any help keeping it low.
