I have this shaft in my Nike Ignite 460. This is the first time I've ever reshafted a club. I can't say it made a night and day difference, but I definitely feel as though I have much more control over where my drives go, and I'm getting 5-10 yards more distance. I'm not sure how good the stock shafts are in the cleveland but the Ignite stock shafts are ****. I'm going the get the 85g model for my 3 wood.

I just put this shaft in my Cleveland Comp and I can't be happier. I just played my first round with it and I didn't miss a fairway! This thing just went where I pointed it and it went far. I have a pretty agressive swing and I like to start my backswing slow and just power through the downswing. Well today I could feel the shaft holding stiff and at the moment of impact I could really feel it. I had a drive on a 450 yard par 4 today that was the best feeling drive I've ever had. I landed the ball about 130 yards away and was amazed as I have always been about 170 yards away.

I can't say enough good things about this shaft.
Does that mean you've gained 40 yards or lost 40 yards? Just kidding!
I was thinking about buying this shaft for my Hibore driver. Right now I have the Grafalloy Prolaunch Blue 65 S. I like the shaft alot but its trajectory is too high for me. I would like to lower it to a mid line flight trajectory. I hear it is good to hit the ball high but I feel I would be able to roll a little bit more instead of one bounce and its done. The Grafalloy shafts are very nice. I hit them very well, usually about 290+, compared to other shafts. Will the Comp NT give me a lower ball flight for some more yardage? Thanks
Just dropped off the club to get this put in . 65s tipped 1" Can anyone describe if the feeling at impact is responsive or boardy? And the Trajectory high mid or low? Ill give my review on Friday when I get it back.
I get a mid to high trajectory and if I hit it dead on then I get a smooth feeling. However, on miss hits it is boardy as was the original Graffaloy Blue. I do also hit the longest drives of my life with this shaft though.
On a side note - I'm thinking about putting in a UST v2 in my cleveland comp.
Do you think it is worth it to swap from my current Grafalloy Prolaunch blue 65(S) to this shaft? I want lower flight. Mine go a mile high but a LONG distance. Usually 290+ . Today I had a couple that measured out at 325yds. Will I see better? Thanks..
no its not really ballooning much. The only time it might do that is if I tee it too high. For some reason the Hibore likes to be tee'ed lower than most 460cc drivers. Most of the time the ball does just what Grafalloy's website says it will travel. But I do like these shafts so I might put them on my fairway woods and maybe replace my Callaway RCH(irons) graphite shafts with these or the Comp NT's.
looks- probably one of the best looking shafts out there. The blue is very attractive matched with my multi compound blue grip from snakeeyes. and the graphics are sweet.
feel- very light (64) gram stiff altho i could get away with an X flex my SS is 112 . I wish they would have made a 75 gram. No whippiness what so ever. Soft at impact like the prolaunch.
Trajectory- Mid/high I would say its like the Blueboard Diamana trajectory but with tighter dispersion. Theres alot of potential for roll altho I cant tell because it just hits the top of the 275 yard net.
overall rating 4.5/5- only regret is the weight. They need a 75 gram.
To me this is a better alternative to the Diamana blueboard less than half the price with a more stable tip.or a grafalloy blue with a higher trajectory and better feel.

my course review at Santa anita in arcadia calif. par 70 about 6800 yards from the blue. I hit 11/14 fairways today. The shaft paired with the top flight tour ball at Golfsmith 11.99 a doz produced a medium high flight. No ballooning just a slow rising flat flight.My bad swings produced good carry still. I didnt hit one pull just slight draws.
