CF shafts do not add power, what they do is transfer the power from YOUR stroke more efficiently, not all CF shafts are created equally, Becue cues have a CF butt as well and it is designed to transfer power more efficiently, you can stroke with less force and get more action, you can play with less English and get more spin.
Beg to disagree purely on the principle of what your described is a distinction without a difference.
If a CF transfers power more efiiciently, presuming it does, the how and why becomes academic.
So the inference is that other shafts do not transfer power as efficiently; the power transfer is diminished.
Efficiency is producing a desired result with the least possible waste of energy, thus implying there’s more.
If using a CF shaft actually avoids losing energy, which I have no way of knowing, & other shafts would, isn’t
the outcome analogously equivalent to adding energy whereas other shafts would result in a loss of energy?
The problem I have with CF shafts is there’s no feel to CF shafts. I don’t wear a glove and consequently, the feel
of a shaft gliding through my bridge helps me gauge my stroke speed. Bottomline is I dislike the feel of CF shafts.
I’ve always played maple shafts and for wood shaft fans, step into the future of wood shafts. Kielwood shafts are
phenomenal. It’s still wood and merely dried differently. The key is finding one duplicating the weight of your shafts.
