Posted October 5, 201410 yr looking for a light shaft to put on my syard xv 5 wood Edited October 5, 201410 yr by bluejays
October 5, 201410 yr I personally do not like using driver shaft for FW. There are a few FW in lighter weight you can consider such as Bassara or GD. I personally been playing DG SF5 which is designed especially for fairway. Anything lighter than mid 50g would be difficult to control.
October 5, 201410 yr I have put a crazy ly02 in my FW and it is stellar. FOR ME it is much better in the FW than it was in the driver. Might be worth a try.
October 5, 201410 yr What did you not like about the stock shaft? Don't they have Rombax shafts in 50g?
October 6, 201410 yr Author I have the head only, the stock shaft is at around 65g which is a bit heavy for me.
October 6, 201410 yr Since you already have the stock shaft, try it and see whether it works. I have seen a member here played the xv 3 w with stock stiff shaft so well that I told him not to change a thing or the magic would be gone.
October 7, 201410 yr personally,,, id plum for a light diamana B or qaudra fir express if theres a light one. they perform sensationally well in htis head.
October 8, 201410 yr Author sorry I meant I don't have the stock shaft, I ohave the head ONLY so need to find a shaft to fit on
October 8, 201410 yr For shaft, it would be great to have the chance to demo or in the case of FW shaft, it is really an utility tool-point A to point B. I personally have good experience with DG SF fw so I would be ordering another 2 to go into new FW heads I am getting soon. Don't need to be fancy with FW as long as it fit your swing or the head.
