Ed My real concern is what does shaft profiling have to do with getting the shaft back to straight and square. All shafts have their peak performance when they are back to straight and the profile has nothing to do with straight and long or anything else when the shaft is straight.So why profile if we are going to fit the shafts properly to be straight at impact.
