supo Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Gang i need thoughts and feedback on thus shaft who else has hit it what do u think im clobbering it right now and my heads in a spin dont know if i love it or its actually just a goo. Shaft feel is magical so soft yet tight i need others opinions now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I have the shaft or should say I had the Fiamme for about a month. It was a wonderful feeling shaft but it was either the too soft or the wrong profile for my swing. I had the 50R and the driver head was lagging behind on the down swing. Perhaps a different flex or a different model would suit me better. Didnt want to sell it but was losing distance from my FE 55R. Maybe I should try the 50S or Spada.

supo Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 thtas what im finding.. m yhead is behind the shaft and im getting big draws. im not used to that. its a tryely wonderful feel maybe i just need to hang in there a bit. im hittng the 70x and it doesnt feel like an x , not by a long shot. i love it. but i think i need tighter. ithink this is more like a stiff.

Duffer19 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Dont know about other models but do find the Fiamme plays a bit softer to flex. On the same head and same playing length, the Fiamme is about 8 cpm less then the FE 55R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 We brought in most of the main Basileus shafts and none of them really impressed. I wanted to like them because they are so darn pretty but in the end compared to Crazy, Quadra, Graphite Design it didn't hold up on the track man. It looks awesome, feels nice, but doesn't perform as well as others we offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supo Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 after last nights session agaisnt a DGp9003x..a crazy ls noir 80....and a roddio m6 shingo spec proto....in all honesty, it was the nicest feeling shaft. but i think its just a bit too flexy. it seems to lag a bit, and dispersion was nt quite what i need, the good shots with it go like the wind. the misses right were minimal and hardly noticeable, but the misses left went quite a bit left. if ur a slicer.............. then this isnt abd shaft it doesnt need to be murdeed to get it to go, can just smooth ito ut there, and as i said it feels awsome to hit.... i think its prob for the slower swing er than the more robsut hitter. i dont think its bad at all, its cetianly long.its not a control shaft, ithink a little tipping might just get this thing tighter. ilike it ,but its not for me.

gocchin Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 I've had the Fiamma for a month now. I have not written that much about it. It went in my Ryoma and came out with the same CPM as the STOCK Ryoma shaft. It was much softer than I expected and was less stable than the stock shaft. I went left all the time with the Fiamma but not so much with the stock shaft. Also while the finish is pretty its durability is very poor, chips too easily and even prepping the tip flakes off the finish. Went back to a Crazy LY01 Hot.

gbs Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 DEF more soft profile stew. even if the cpm is spot on. I have the basileus spada 50S now. i am loving it the best combo for my CRZ 460 so far. the best carry and the best Roll out out of all the drivers i have to date. I can't seem to hit the spada 60S the ball is so low but surprising the spada 70S i can use with a little fade. the ball flight is better than the 60S. Fiamma is almost a cross of the CB 46 and the FE in my opinion but with the best feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 9, 2012 Report Share Posted June 9, 2012 It reminds me of NGS shafts, the president/designer used to work for them. Ive got the fiamma in a Ryoma now and agree with gbs its got good feel. I just need better dispersion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted June 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 well i get really good distance with it and always a draw. prob right im after tighter dispersion aswell its def not an X flex thats for sure. i need /want somehting tighter im gonna put the diaman x back in it. thats was an unbeatable combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 14, 2012 Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 Played another round with the Fiamma 60S yesterday w/Ryoma head. Pros: - Love the looks - Love the feel - Love the kick Cons: - Dispersion too wide - Fragile Finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2012 i pulled mine on wed in favour of the BB7 s will post if for sale in bst this weekend. agree with you on all fronts.. the 70x suits a slightyl softer swinger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 The fiamma certainly has feel and kick... any soft shaft will. Problem is its too soft the way its stiffness is distributed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
