johnnypro Posted February 4, 2005 Report Share Posted February 4, 2005 I've decided I will try to play the entire year with my 10* Ping G2 so I'd like to put a top-line Fuji in it :money: . I'm 54 years old, average about 250-260 off the tee (maybe 15-20 of that is roll), usually a mid-height draw (occasionally a hook). I know I prefer a firm shaft but a softer tip to increase launch angle. For instance, I loved the G2 with the ProLaunch 65 (s) and HATED the same club with the NV65 (s). Based on this, of the 660TR, 652 Tour Spec, 693TR, ZCOM MW54 & 64, which, if any or maybe another model, would you guys recommend? Thanks in advance!

kpcw Posted February 5, 2005 Report Share Posted February 5, 2005 Check out Aldila NVS...completely different monster. You are 54 years old and can push the ball a ways, good for you. But...why not look at lighter weight shafts? Me? IMO I'd put an Aldila NVS 55 gram in Stiff (or Regular depending on your swing speed) in your G2 and go tell you to beat the dimples off the ball. Increase your speed with a lighter shaft and a tad more torque. The NVS comes in 55 or 65 gram, costs you $87.50 each (plus installation fee and a case a beer to your buddy who installs it). The NVS was to me, a lot like the Prolaunch Graffalloy, but even better. I hated the NV, most people rave about it. I'd give you the Regular Flex NVS 55. Ask you to hit it at the range for an hour. If you felt unsure about it, then try it in Stiff Flex. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
