Hi all, Looking back on my notes and checking my readings with Jeff Summits shaft fitting addendum, my measurements are VERY CLOSE and a good percentage of the time right on with his results. Those shafts include, Graphite design YS-6, SK Fiber (all shafts ), Graffalloy Pro Lite 35's, Aldila VX, UST Pro Force 75,65's etc.. These are finished club measurements. Could it be I received a bad shaft? Like I stated earlier, this was my first request for a Fujikura shaft so I have nothing to compare it to, and this shaft addendum has only the Vist Pro 80 X listed. Anyone have any notes on these shafts? Pat McGoldrick--On Target Golf [EMAIL PROTECTED]
