Forget it! Titanium shafts are a waste of time. If you like your driver length 44" @ D2-D4, pick a graphite shaft at about 80 grams and lead tape the head until you achieve the swing weight you like. I prefer my lead tape to be on the toe wall.

How about an SK Tour Trac 90? They're only $30, have a 7" parallel tip section. An R flex untipped should work. Or go with a standard weight shaft and add lead tape to the chrome "grooves" on the top of the BOM. John shoptalk >Anyone have any experience with TiSports titanium wood shafts?
