Shaft selection ???

Greetings...I am 51, 6'4" 215 lbs, in decent shape, had successful back disk surgery in 1995.

Handicap = 30
Club speed = 95 mph (driver); 75-80 mph (6i)

Just bought Callaway X-18 graphites (1" over, 2 upright, stiff, 85g) and now reconsidering.

If I decide to go back to steel, Callaway will reshaft for me, choices are: Callaway Uniflex (112g), Nippon (99g), TT Dynamic Gold SL (106g), TT TX-90 (107g).

The Callaway rep highly recommended the DG SL or the Nippon. Can I please have some opinions on this?

Thanks!

just on the callaway web site, there are others, comes down to how heavy you want them. http://www.callawaygolf.com/en.CLUBS...ge-shafts.html the shafts they recommended will be a little heavier, but not much. if you can try some others out first before making a selection would be advantagous to you.
the tx 90 a very good shaft also.

i play nippon nspro, very nice shaft but still very light...i have never hit a club with the dg superlights, however i have heard good things about them...also u may want to consider the project x high launch 5.0's...this is a really great shaft, but very very pricey.,.
