I've read a few of you guys rate this shaft in a hybrid. What is the bend point/launch like? I'm getting conflicting info, Golfworks in the US reckon it's a mid-high bp and low trajectory whereas UST on their website say Med-High launch? I would trust UST but I am concerned it doesn't perform like they say so can someone shed some light please..

Medium launch. Medium spin.

Where the IRod is good is that it is VERY stable, but still kicks. For such a low cost shaft, this is very rare.

In laymens terms - you get a soft feel that doesn't hit huge hooks or fades.

Cheers virge, I hit the V2 65g reg in my driver and love the stability and launch - you reckon I'll like the iROD then?

How does it compare to the V2 hybrid - have you used that yet?

Irod is a bit higher than the V2. V2 is a very low launch shaft - great for high spin and wristy players

The Irods have worked out well for me.
