Comments about Hireko APGSHHB:Apollo Shadow Hybrid Graphite:

Very solid shaft. Used these in a set of Power Play Select 5000 Hybrid Irons (3-6). There are a couple of higher end shafts that I prefer for these clubs, but the Apollo Shadow Hybrid is a terrific alternative at a significantly lower price.

Comments about Hireko APGSHHB:Apollo Shadow Hybrid Graphite:

Re-shafted a couple of Wishon 331H hybrids
with these, tip trimmed to firm flex. They
perform well. Good feel and control. They
are a great value. Now if they would only
make this in a 95 gram iron version.

Comments about Hireko APGSHHB:Apollo Shadow Hybrid Graphite:

Let me start out by saying I have never used this shaft for a hybrid. I have however used it multiple times for fairway woods, and the results were great. As a matter of fact, both of my fairway woods have this shaft attached to them. The price is right, the performance is phenomenal, and the looks are very attractive. The distance and accuracy are exactly what I need to hit critical targets from long distances, and the feel is solid without harshness.

I am however extremely disappointed in Apollo for mis-marketing this shaft, in particular the .335 model. If you want to build a hybrid shaft in .370 tip and call it a hybrid shaft, that's fine. But don't do the same thing with a .335 shaft. It may work well as a hybrid shaft, but I can attest to it being an excellent fairway wood shaft.
