what is the stiffest carbon shaft in market at the moment?

We need a good, accurate 'Boing-ometer', you bend the shaft and let go. How many times it goes 'BOINGGGG" is the flex rating. ;)

When I was building wooden shafts I would bounce the end off of the wood floor. A very solid one inch thick and a bit more plus joists every twelve inches. Five or seven sills in twelve feet too, the floor was solid! Didn't matter how many growth rings a blank had, it didn't mean a thing if it didn't have the ping! Customers usually got 12-15 rings, I was very happy with eight to twelve rings for my personal shafts. Eight rings and a ping beat fifteen rings that didn't sound right.

The rumor back in the early eighties when I got mine was that Bob used soft maple for his shafts. It took me six months to get used to mine. People used to laugh when I would sling my hinged cue in a corner and grab something, anything, off the wall to play with!

not to get off subject but back in the height of everyone wanting them because of the spin you could apply I played with mcdermott’s and then shons because I liked the stiffer hit that felt easier to control
