Erin B Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I’ve been playing the 5 dot that has been tipped 1/2” and shortened to 45” and I’m more impressed with it every time I play it. Just the played it in a VGA event in 35* weather. Yes it was snowing lightly and it was cold. The Newton shaft didn’t disappoint. The golfer may have, but the Newton did not.

Josh Parker Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 After 6 or 7 rounds with the fairway wood shaft, I will say it's staying in the bag! Easy to hit and flight. Can shape the ball and trust it's going where I'm aiming.
