I think it`s pointless to state my prefrence, as the previous posters have proven how diverse opinions are.
The big players: OB and Predator both have their fans and i tend to notice that people who like OB shafts don`t like Predator and vice versa..
Then you have all the other products from Mezz, McDermott, Lucasi, Katana, Tiger etc.
Most of us have not had the possibility to try all these shafts, atleast not in any extensive way and with the same butt, so it`s almost impossible to do a real accurate comparison.
If you google LD shaft rating you will find a scale, where most popular shafts are tested in regards to how much squirt the shafts have.
The test says nothing about feel, sound, price, availability, quality etc.
So it`s limited knowledge you can derive from this.
The only way to be sure is to test as many shafts as you can.
Remember that a LD shaft will not make you a pro over night. Infact i think that LD shafts is mostly marketing, but you should never overlook the importance of the feel good factor.
Personally i used the Mezz hybrid II for a couple of months, and it`s among the most expensive shafts on the market and i did not like it!
However the Mezz WX900 has a great feel, but still a hit that is a bit too stiff for me.
So i ended up buying the cheapest LD shaft on the market: The Katana shaft and I`m very happy with it, it feels and sounds like a regular maple shaft, it has a short 12.5mm ferrule and comes in all the normal thread patterns.
So if you don`t have the posibillity to try alot of LD shafts, the Katana shafts are very cheap ($160) so it`s not a huge loss if you don`t like it.
Yes! I agree!Meucci Pro Shaft
