I've had two testing sessions with my X Wave so far. I took it out on the range yesterday for some head to head with my gamer shafts, no data, just went for feel. Today I got a brief range session in with it. Here's my thoughts so far:
Finish is unbelievable, it looks so cool in the sunlight. I opted for the 6X. I'm 110-112mph with driver and have been working on some speed training lately and can touch upper teens/120
If I'm feel good and going after it. I like to draw it off the tee and typically like a shaft that's stable but has some kick. I can make either Stiff or X work for the most part.
I built my X Wave up at 45" in my GT3 10*, STD Weight.
It's very hard to turn this shaft over for me. It does not want to draw. It's very stable, bordering on too stiff for me. Maybe I should have gone 5S, but this is WRX, it's and X and it looks cool! € Definitely feels a lot like Ventus Black. At 69g it's heavier than most shafts I've gotten along with, but I did put a lighter weight in the head and it felt more comfortable.
I played 9 holes with it and if I commit to the fact that it wants to stay straight or cut, I could hit it really well.
Definitely going to need some more time with it, but it's a quality shaft so far!
