A firmer, stronger-player profile. Review take: weight and bend profile are the real fit variables; flex is only a starting label.

It ranks #9 among 57 shafts in the Every18 index. Its strongest measured area is forgiveness at 83, while feel is the relative tradeoff at 78. The $170 estimated used price is $34 above the category average of $136.
