Ultra boom Shaft

Just thinking how much I liked the feel of that shaft when I had one. Had it in an SMT Encore head and for some reason sold the whole club. Don’t know why....

Typhoon Now my justification is that my swing is better and I’d be fine with it.

That was my thoughts also. When I had it, I was slicing like a butcher during a pandemic!

Thinking more, I do remember a few more going to the right. I can’t remember hooking it. I had so many drivers back then I probably just said screw it and went back to the 455/vs339.

Just had the opportunity to order one from Pro Series through Amazon prime along with the 75 foot CAT6 Ethernet cable. Wife said “need anything else?”. I said “no”.

I’m over it...

Right now with Ping adapters I have:
HOF Black Diamond 47”
Paderson Velocity 47”
HOF Express
HZRDUS Yellow Handcrafted
Graphite Design Tour AD IZ6
Kuro Kage Tini silver

Typhoon I've got one coming from Monark. 😁

Tell me about that Kuro Kage. I've used the 1st gen iron shafts and like them a lot.

😂😂😂... too funny!!!

The Kuro Kage came with the Ping Head I wanted to use for LD so I don’t even think I hit it yet 🥺. I do know in the past I’ve hit it well but only indoors. One of these days I’ll throw it on the bag and take it to the range to screw into the head and see how it goes.

Description says bend profile similar to the Assassin II......the last version of that shaft had some serious measured toque, if memory serves me correctly. I would not trust a new version Accuflex shaft to be on spec for anything other than weight.

Ode, that was the original description from Accuflex when it first came out. Pro series uses the same descriptions.

I had an Assassin 2 and liked it but it would balloon on me. Thought the UB would have been perfect but it was loose even at 2.8

I have a Tantrum PT X flex coming from Proseries through an EBay auction -- I'm thinking of trying it in a Fourteen Gelong D CT-214 head I have coming, as that was sold at 47"+ stock, so it might work. If not, a cheap experiment.

Typhoon

Played today and used the HOF express. Hit it just as far as the Graphite Design Tour AD iz6 but tightened it up. As usual, I probably have a bunch of shafts that all go the same distance.

Typhoon I used a Penley Stealth 70 today, S flex, 72 gr.. Had it in an Indio 8.5 @ 47 1/2". Thought I was going to drive the green on the 300 yd. 1st hole! Didn't make it that far though. 😂 Nice club.

LogicalOne

Par4QC Ahhh, the good old Indio! 😎

Par4QC

LogicalOne I have 4 of them. 😁 And a Shinnecock, along with a 455DB. Cheap entertainment.

Par4QC Son stole my Indio. I do have a Shinnecock hiding in the corner of the garage though. Well, not really hiding. More like communing with 8 or 10 other drivers from the old days.

I bought 4 Indios when diamond tour closed them out. 😀

Mine too.

colej Hmmmm....😏

colej

LogicalOne

also a couple Encores 😂

LogicalOne

colej Anything around 9.5* and square face in either? 😎

Par4QC

colej dammit, I did leave out my Encore. I also bought a shitload of heads from DTG at $9.99.

colej

LogicalOne

the encore sits a bit closed IMO. I’ll check on the Indio

LogicalOne

Typhoon Maybe colej and I can strike a deal on an Encore. 😎 I can even order an UltraBoom shaft and have it shipped to him (I stopped building clubs years ago). 👍

Typhoon

The Encore was a great club. Bigger version of The Spectrum.

Next time I’ll take the HZRDUS yellow our to try. It’s the shaft I was fitted for but when I hit it alongside the others on the monitor, it matches up in accuracy but is the shortest. The KK is something I really want to hit.
