Quite a fair shaft mate. Really well suited to the L4V because they are heavily counterbalanced just like the stock Cobra diamana.

The Pershing differs from many lines in that as the flex gets stiffer they also move the kickpoint up the shaft and stiffen the tip so the flight and spin decreases.

The 65s is mid launch and mid spin, basically. Pretty smooth and easy to load.

Is your L4 an M model Leigh?

A YS+ on steroids...:mrgreen:

Better for the higher swingspeeds and harder tempos IMO...as TNO says the counterbalancing helps move the weight towards the hands a little, often helping with some control for harder swingers!!!

The 75 plays STIFF to me...low torque, stiff tip, low spin and mid/low launch make it pretty stout. While the 65 is easier, in comparison to most 65g shafts, it also plays on the firm side.

sorry this got knocked off the front page and i missed the replies.

its an M. i think mine is an F. is this going to be a closed face as the 10 i got seems WAY closed compared to the 9 i have.

might be a go as the stock Diamana always feels a touch whippy.
