Favorite Driver Shafts of All Time 🐐

[Jldillard1 3]

Just like the title says. Your favorite driver shafts ever. Which magical unicorn shaft is your personal GOAT

[03trdblack 1,034]

The first one I ever got professionally fitted for was the original Diamana Kai'li. 

My current goat is the Autoflex. This shaft is pure voodoo magic.

Been thinking of building a budget autofkex! Dropping from 60x to 50s tipping and giving a go! Was that old Kai’li a flower band or an ion blue?

It was Ion blue on one side and Ion silver on the other side. Was fit for it at the Taylormade kingdom in Georgia.

None. I have found many that work with my swing depending on the head.

But my 1:1 EF Blue will be my favorite shaft to own

Oh my...There are several...

The GOAT in my opinion is the Grafalloy ProLite 35...The first premium shaft that paved the way for the Speeder, Diamana BB and others.  This shaft in a Callaway Great Big Bertha was pure.  I loved that setup.

As far as my favorite ever...man...This Tensei 1K white is a contender...

VA Nemesys 

it’s basically ruined me. No other driver I demo can match the feel

Graphite Design Tour AD IZ.   Out of 10 or so shafts I tried for my current gamer, Epic Max LS, it was the only one that felt significantly different (in a good way).    I did a combined review of all the shafts I tried, here.

Matrix Ozik F6m2 - just the best feeling straightest shaft I ever played. Still have one lurking in the garage in a Titleist 909 D3.

Aldila NVS. Not much has come close since. 

[PJVicary 8]

Talamonti Light 55 45” driver shaft

[HDTVMAN 155]

Mitsubishi Diamana Blue Board S70 fitted at TPI, Carlsbad.

[IONEPUTT 98]

Graman 780 in S flex. I put it in an old Cleveland Launcher 460 Comp and It's been in my bag for over 15 years now. I use it every time I go to a demo day and I have never found a new driver with an OEM shaft that could do as well as what my old 460 Comp would do with that 780 Graman shaft. Even the Demo tech reps all told me to stick with what I have.

Project X M66 Proto... Such a random find but had Don Brown suggest the proper tipping. That thing was amazing. Sadly sold it for what I thought was greener pastures, not so much.

[PMookie 16,996]

First has to be Dynamic Gold X100 since it was in my first drivers back in the late 70s and mid-80s. It was a performer!!! Next would be the Aldila HM-40 80g shaft I had in a TM driver head. That was a great shaft for me! Lastly, Grafalloy Blue in my Cleveland Launcher 460 was amazing! 

[Mike Z 261]

Grafalloy Blue  Titleist 905S.  Loved that setup.  Could take anything that i could give it.  Diamana Ahina in a Ping Anser is pretty solid as well.  Tried the "new" Blue a few years ago and it didnt go well. 

[Olmsted421 5]

Grafalloy Blue, the one that was all blue with the white logo sphere. Since they did away with that one the UST Pro Force has been my go to. 

[drb1956 19]

Aldila NV 65 or 75 for my woods. They always feel good, all in regular flex. I get good distance, and control I need. Recently updated a factory shaft with a Graffaloy ProLaunch 65 in reg. flex. The jury is still out...

[Shapotomous 4,806]

The Grafalloy ProLaunch Red in my Ping G10 was my holy grail for about 10 years.

Does anyone remember Titanium shafts? Me and my dad put one in a driver and I had it in about 3 more. That was my driver shaft for over 15 years. I loved that thing. It was heavy for a driver shaft by today's standards, but lighter than the steel shafts that were still popular in the late 90s. I could just swing as hard as I wanted and rip the ball and it would just go straight. It was amazing, I still have it in the back of the garage, not sure what I'll do with it.
