Had the honour of testing this shaft today. Swing was off and wasn't really to strike it well. On off hits, it went at least 200m to 230m.

Shaft feels very very, I repeat, very stable. On a particular hole where I got a good hit, the compression was something I had never felt before on my previous shaft. Ball just took off and disappeared. Shocked when I found out the ball had landed 290m away from the tee without any help from the wind. Might have caught a downslope and rolled but good nonetheless. Will be looking to repeat that shot soon and will update more when I go to the range with it over the weekend. 

Thanks again Eric for the chance to test this shaft

wah Asahi secret testing new weapon at OCC never say ah... I saw him bombing drives with the new shaft man. long long straight straight scary scary. 

Anw I had the chance to try both bro enwee and bro asahi's shafts in their respective configurations. Found the R-flex Alpina 573 to be a bit too soft for me. This shaft really requires a smooth swing tempo for it to work. Once it connected well though, ball flight was nice. Easy to launch.

I think bro Asahi had the S-flex Alpina 673. Found this to me awesome. Smooth tempo also needed but I dared to put more into the swing. Impact felt damn awesome and the ball went FAR for me man. FAR. Shaft felt really quite stable (alth i still like the Oban Revenge Razz but seriously, at almost half the price....).

Coming from a relatively new golfer idk if this would be helpful but yea could feel the diff and juz sharing hehe What a Face

I don't like Slinger, he left my ears ringing from his driver shots.

On a serious note, thanks for being a good sport and willing to swing some for me to see and is a pleasure meeting you.

If you don't try, you will never know.... come, come....

I got the Veylix on my CG Black, the good news?

The shaft is so much more stable, I got it at 46.5inches just to try out if there's any increased dispersion or not.

I did mean dispersion, longer shaft ma... whether got more distance depends on whether I can get timing, tempo and transition synchronised for good impact.

And you know the verdict oredi, having witnessed my trial at the range just now.
