i'm pretty sure that's not actual shaft bend and more a distortion from a digital camera. otherwise you'd have to ask yourself how the shaft could have released it's energy before you unhinged your wrists!

These aren't pics from digital cam. It's a captured screen shot from video.

from a digital video camera? i'll let others with more knowledge chime in if they want but it still looks like distortion to me.

I believe it's a distortion too though....I don't have high frames per sec cam to confirm....I don't know which cam it came from. This one was from television.

Seems like a distortion as the CMOS image sensor capture images from top to bottom.

it sucks when trying to capture what these shafts do in our swings. other than that, i wish i was good enough to play on those surroundings! ;)

Jimmie do you find the Boron has a little too soft of a tip for the Maxima V head? So far I have had the best luck with tip stiff shafts in it.

It's soft but not too soft. Soft is good in this shaft as it helps in launching the ball. I'm not getting hooks with it too which is nice. Not anti-left, slightly draw to straight. Really love this shaft.

I have the Crazy CB 46 6.7 in it the Maxima G (10.5) right now and it doesn't seem to get a lot of roll. Still searching for the right combo on for this head.

Those pic's are clearly victims of shutter roll. Even video cameras have shutters. And this cam apparently has a slow shutter speed. Using a Casio or other cam with high-speed shutter and at least 120 fames per second would give a totally different view of this shaft at different positions. Those pic's look like a magic tick.
