I own the mezz wd700 shaft and have also play with the Jacoby edge hybrid. I have compared the 2 side by side. They both played great and I could find absolutely no difference in deflection between these 2 shafts. No adjustment was needed. I will say this though. My mezz wd700 shaft I own is taken down to 12mm, and the jacoby edge hybrid shaft I used was at 12.75mm. So technically the mezz had the advantage of less front end mass due to smaller diameter tip than the jacoby. So being they still had equal low deflection properties at different diameter shafts, the jacoby might be lower deflection if they were of equal diameter. They are pretty much on par with each other, so you cannot go wrong with either of them. The reason I choose mezz over jacoby hybrid is because lots of people in my area uses jacoby hybrid shafts because they are easy to come by, and I like to be different. I've never seen anyone else using a mezz shaft in my area.

I went from using house cues or my Schon to a Predator on the Schon butt. I didn't like the feel of it, but had already compensated for the less deflection. I got a Mezz with the wx700. I absolutely love the hit and feel. Total confidence in it. When I get my tax money this next year, I plan on buying a spare shaft. As for the comparison, I've never hit with a Jacoby.
