The LAGP shaft I've been using has very similar specs to the Xwave.
For the people who want to know about tipping for a driver and especially tipping for a fairway wood shaft. The OEM does not recommend tipping on the driver but since the shaft is parallel on the tip section, you can tip up to 1/2 inch on the driver without having to go up a flex. That then gives you the stiffness of going up a flex but still keeping the weight down to be able to swing a little faster.
For a fairway wood, the OEM has seen people with slower swing speeds use the same flex and weight as their driver and just butt cut down to length and tip 1/2 inch. If your a stronger player and have faster swing speeds, they have seen people go up a flex, butt cut and tip 1/2 inch for best results.
I'm a bit nervous to put this into a fairway, as then I'd have to buy a bunch more X Waves as I know how good the driver shaft is. €. Seriously, l've not had much time to play or practice lately with work and my short game and irons show the results. However my driver is still the best part of my game. Does get me upset that I'm 280-290 down the middle and then I can't hit the green with a short iron or wedge. *
really love the look of the 4X and would love to test it out but so far, nothing is beating my 5S.
