July 9, 200718 yr Has anyone tried both of these shafts? Can anyone compare feel, distance, dispersion? Considering putting the Code 8 Firm or Blueboard 83 Stiff in my HiBore XL. Would the Blueboard Stiff feel more stout? Currently using a VS Proto 80 Regular which I like the feel of, but it occasionally balloons in the wind and I could do with a flatter downrange flight, with slightly more roll. Also have a VS Proto 80 S Proto shaft in an Adams Idea Pro hybrid which I have absolutely no problems loading with my fast tempo. ~95mph and increasing with the driver. Thanks.

Been wondering about these, as well. But, my interest is for a 3wd. I've tested the Proto 73 (S); needs to be tipped for me. Wouldn't even consider anything "83" in driver. A bit to much for my 102 SS with faster then normal tempo.
July 27, 200718 yr both are very close.. with the edge going to the code 8.. now-- to get a lower or more penetrating flight i like a firmer tip section for you. xcon 7 stiff flex at 45''......... even though it reads high launch the stiff tip -- promotes a mid-high flat shot pattern.. a tad lighter weight and a stiff flex.. to handle control.. but if not - i lean towards the code 8.
