I can
honestly say that this is the first time I have ever seen a noticeable
difference in performance from a change in shaft. I'm a swinger, not a
hitter, with a swing speed of about 105-mph with a 45-inch driver. I had
previous good luck with the YS-6 and Purple Ice and was a bit hesitant about
using the more tip-stiff NV. I inserted an NV 65-S 1.25-inches (minimum
insertion recommended by Aldila) in my 983K and the ungripped frequency came out
to 248-CPM at 45-inches (5-inch butt clamp).
The NV
feels really solid without any "boardiness". My trajectory tends to be low but,
with the ball teed up high, the trajectory is great with a flat apex. I have
used the shaft for about three months now and I have yet to hit a slice or hook
with it. When my swing is "on" I get the longest, straightest drives I have ever
hit. When the swing is "off" the NV keeps me on or near the fairway. This is the
best graphite shaft I have ever used.

Subject: Re: ShopTalk: NBP-COG
I have reshafted my three drivers using the NBP-COG alignment (975J/Graphite
Design YS-6; 975J-VS/Graphite Design Purple Ice; 983K/Aldila NV) and was
very pleased with the results of all three. I reshafted one of my Titleist
962 sets with the new Balistik shaft using the S1-COG alignment and really
like these as well. Anecdotal info for what it's worth
Hi,
What did you think of the Aldila NV ?
