Johnny,
No problem - but one question. What diameter is your current shaft? This shaft is fior players who want to try the new smaller tip/stonger taper style and it is ideal for someone who already plays with a smaller diameter tip.
Chris
My current tip is around 12mm (possibly slightly smaller). I've never actually measured it because I don't have calipers or a micrometer.
As far as the taper goes, I have no idea. I don't have a good understanding of the different types of tapers. You would probably know the taper better than I. It's a Palmer PB-6.
Johnny
I would suggest that you get Tate to put your name back on the list. You'll love the x-pro. It's not much different from what you're playing with now. The difference in size is slight but the hit will be very noticable. I've had mine for about three months and love it more everyday.

If Chris agrees, I'll stay in the mix. I just don't want to keep it out of the hands of people that can give good feedback.

Johnny,
I would like to see you try it. Anybody who wants to try an LD shaft is welcome. We'll get through all the testers in due course and some people will find benefits and some won't, but it's nice to know and it's free to try.
Chris
ive submitted my info chris and i'm really excited to try your product,sweet program by the way.i like the thicker shaft like a 12.75 would be great.thanks again,hoss.
While I didn't read this entire thread, I want to comment on the Pro X shaft that Chris sent me. It arrived while I was on the road teaching, from Boston, down to Cheasapeak, VA, to watch the US Open. So, I didn't get to actually play with it until I returned home a week ago. I have played with it for 5 straight days, and I have to say I LOVE the shaft. It plays very similar to my G-Core...and that's a huge compliment. I put this shaft through it paces, with lots of power strokes (and touch shots, masse's & kicks), with and without sidespin, and the shaft performed excellently under all conditions. I broke with mine too, and it performed flawlessly there as well! I am now sending mine on to the fellow in NY state who is next on the list! Thanks again Chris...great shaft! :thumbup:

I think you should wait for the new Ultra X LD which is 12.75 mm.
Chris
Hoss,
Yes, I got your note the other day. These Pro X shafts are 11.75 mm. I think you should wait for the new Ultra X LD which is 12.75 mm. At this time, if all goes well, I'm planning on having a demo program on it as well.
However, if you want to still try the 11.75 mm shaft, you are most welcome.
Chris
Chris, do you have any taper info on this shaft?
Looking for conical.
Rod
