fatshot I bought a 45 gram A flex Aldila Ascent shaft

That shaft combined with my Paradym X driver head is a perfect fit to my swing. It just works.

fatshot The next logical step is ladies flex

My hybrids are Callaway "W" flex. Good fit for me.

    24 days later

    Over the weekend finished off the reworking of my home-brewed single-length Snake Eyes Quick Strike II hybrids with Aldila Trinity F-75 shafts in A-flex (purchased from GlobalGolf RBG; these were apparently originally part of the Callaway RAZR Fit Xtreme fairway wood offering a decade or so ago) and Lamkin Sonar Plus grips. Playing length is 40". These are the 15°, 19°, 23°, and 27°. Also have the 31° but didn't reshaft as my current irons should cover that yardage.

      HybridWood Those shafts have been hanging around a few online retailers for awhile. I suspect that they are like an NV with a softer tip, maybe a NVS. Do you like them?

        backinit I would agree with NVS-like. They do have a softer tip like the NVS. So far I am pleased with the results based on range testing with the 27° and a split grip. Hope to take the completed clubs to the range today but with 90°+ temps we'll see.

        I switched from 17° 4 wood to 19° 5 wood, so I decided to build different fairways for gapping purposes. Jetspeed 7/23, and KZG 9/27. While I was at it, Launcher HB 3 wood. All with the FGS plus shaft or the iDrive equivalent.

        I don’t know that I need a 3 wood. Time will tell. Right now when driver is not the good choice, I use the 5 wood.

          Reshafted a Louisville Golf persimmon 11 wood Niblick 30 deg with a TT Dynalite steel R to go with my ALL American set.

            Par4QC You must be looking for more launch. I notice you set the screw to the very back.

            For me with steel shafts I need more launch. The difference in heft match (higher) heft allows me to be more synced up and I don't get the high launch of a graphite softer flex shaft profile in the tip area vs. steel even Dynalite. Plus the BBGM makes the shaft play stiffer a good factor as trajectories and dispersion are way less with steel even for a slower swing speed senior than graphite plus the heft is better.

              backinit I haven't played a 3 wood since I was in around 50. I'm not sure why I'm still holding on to one.

              I haven't owned a 3 wood since......hell I can't remember.

                backinit It would only be a tee club for me, I think. We have 7 holes where I’d sometimes rather not use a driver due to bunkers etc. The 3 wood probably won’t be enough shorter than the driver to make it worth using. But I had the head so I’ll give it a look.

                I’m hitting the 5 wood as far (carry) as I could hit a lower loft. Roll out is not as far though.

                scotts33 For me with steel shafts I need more launch

                Years ago I liked the Wishon Series 5? steel shaft in my fairways. I would sometimes use it untipped and I could get it over some tall trees lol.
