So I've had my Revo shaft for a little over 2 years now.
Verdict: I'm never going back to wood shafts.
No, it doesn't make me shoot like Strickland, Dechaine or Sigel, but there are some great benefits that I love and in my mind, for me, justifies the price. With wood shafts I could only go 45 mins to maybe an hour (max) at a time before I would NEED to wash my hands. The shaft would get all sticky and it would make a smooth stroke all but impossible, not to mention frustrating. The Revo has solved this issue for me.
The Victory tip is amazing as well. It holds chalk phenomenally well and is as close to maintenance free as possible. With other tips I've used in the past, it seemed as if they were constantly in need of attention.
Finally, given the composition, they're dent & nick free. I'm OCD and I freely admit it. A shaft with any significant nick or dent drives me nuts & unfortunately that serves as unwanted distraction for me.
I'm way past the point in life of needing anyone/everyone to think or be like me. If you don't like Revo shafts, for whatever reason, that's fine. I hope you're happy with what you're using. If you do like Revo shafts, hey, I feel ya. I hope you enjoy them in good health and play, play, play.
