casamarina Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hello guys,i am new in this beautiful Forum!I just got a new D-1 Maxima V Type, with stock S/R shaft.It happens that a friend of mine is offering a Crazy LY 01 HOT "black", Flex 6.4. How would the experts compare the 2 shafts? Would you suggest for me to replace the original one with the Crazy? Thanks you in advance for your kind suggestions!

wmclarenf1 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hi, Welcome. Not an expert but I have played the LY01 Hot Black in the exact same flex. I don't imagine the 6.4 in the Hot Black will be too far away form the SR so I think that's a pretty good black. That said, I have not hit the stock shaft and know not its profile so its a guess. The LY01 HOT Black unlike the LY01 Nero or Noir, hits a tad lower and feels a tad stiffer as do most Black series crazy shafts. That said, its still a very playable shaft. I see we have another watch aficionado in our midst as well :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauvanilla Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Here from Hong Kong as well (we should catch up one day for a round!). I think it would make a difference specially because the Maxima launches quite high with the stock shaft; I have achieved much better performance with RYomas with Crazy shafts.

Duffer19 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Wow, let's do a maxima foursome soon as another member here from HK also plays a maxima type D same as mine. I have the FE55 and I think he plays the DI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+TourSpecGolfer Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hope to visit HK one day. Try the stock shaft and then try the crazy, experience both and learn from it. Pick the shaft that matches your timing it will always perform better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chanaa Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 just left hkers after 13 yrs. You playing @ DB or CB ? if you want to test out your shafts, go see Tony @ Pura Golf in SheungWan. He gives good advice & special care when handling premium jdms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
