Mezz W700 shaft review¡
- Thread starter fiolledapool
- Start date
i had one for a while. it's very similar to a 314 when it comes to deflection. i'd say the main difference is the feel. it feels like you're using a standard maple shaft but it deflects less.
i sold mine because these days i prefer using non low deflection shafts and shafts that're closer to 13mm. the shafts come with a 12.5mm tip and these days i'm leaning toward 12.75+

Very important your information for me. Thanks
I have been playing with a mezz for while now, and i can tell you that you cant go wrong with a mezz. wd700 is more stiff than other low deflection shafts but carry the feel of a standard shaft.I would say if you are switching from a normal shaft to wd700 than it should be quiet easy.The playbilty of these shafts is superb.
The new wd700 are now coming in 12.75 mm, however the older ones were 12.5mm
Good luck
I have a wd-700.
It has the feel of a normal maple shaft but also has the qualities of a LD shaft. The hit is more med-stiff with the original moori tip on, in my opinion it is much lower in terms of deflection than a 314-2. The taper is a long style pro taper and it has a 3/4" ferrule made from some kind of plastic.
As the shaft is not made using splices, all 8 wd-700 shafts i have tried all have very good wood grain quality, no bad wood is used for these shafts.
Overall i would highly recommend trying one, the only grip i have is that the ferrule can be difficult to keep clean. However, a trick to do this is to wet sand it on a lathe with some fine wet n dry quicky, this seems to polish the ferrule up nicley and repel chalk
Hope this helps

any idea what the eta is on the 12.75mm shafts being released?
I have played with a couple that were closed to 13mm.
This shafts are amazing. Lots of ways you can play with this shafts.
And all Mezz shafts are of good quality and dense shafts(one key factor to performance shooting). Almost all shafts are exceeding 4oz, averaging 4.2oz.

If you order the shafts from a Mezz dealer and are willing to pay and wait extra,
most of the Mezz shafts can be ordered in whatever diameter you want (within reason).
The extra cost is quite steep at around $60.
I am going from memory here, but I'm pretty sure the OLD version of the WD700
was 12.8mm and the new version is 12.5mm (the ones I got last month were 12.5).
I don't play with low deflection shafts, but the WD700 does have the best feel of them all.

I agree with Dave, the old WD700's were made at 12.8mm. The new ones are 12.5mm. However, you can order them at 13mm. I know, as I have ordered 2, in United Joint and the other, 3/8x10. You can also order HP2 or Alpha at 13mm. Again, you need to pay extra for that.
I prefer to use the WD700 on Steel Jointed Cues with 5/16x14 or United Joint. I also liked the old HybridPro on this type of cues.
On big pin (3/8's or Wavy) cues, I prefer to use either the HybridProII or Alpha.
