TXG: Two shafts with the same weight and flex | Ball flight testing
Testing two shafts from VA composites that are the same weight and flex, but differ greatly in bend profile. See how much feel, timing and ball flight difference can be made even with two shafts that are similar on paper!

Bend profiles, once determined, can be recorded on paper: which, on paper, would make these shafts dissimilar.

In the old days people couldn’t get enough of this type of video.
But clearly from the reaction and lack of comments, now nobody cares about some no name dudes banging balls into the screen, and not even having photos of the shafts and data presented in the article in print.
How times have changed

Errrrr how about some pics of the shafts and their stated specs, and then the measured specs of each, and then the specs once in those heads???
Worthless video as always. Don’t need to see anybody hit anything, just show us the specs and data, of all shots, and then the averages.
Way too much talking and not enough data graphics.
