Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

I put these shafts in my old ping eye 2 irons and brought my game back to the level of golf I have missed in the last years. If you are handicapped or disabled and are a low handicapper, these shafts will bring back the distance and feel back to your game.

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

I assembled two Power Play 5000 Hybrid irons - regular flex - a 3 and 5. These shafts have a dead feel..unlike any shaft I have used. I know it's not the iron heads. The heads have great reviews, so it's unfair to rate the heads since the shafts were so disappointing. I wasted my time and money.

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

This shaft is a work horse for my club making hobby.
It provides many options for the high handicap players. This shaft is sturdy and very durable with the flexibility of a much more expensive golf shaft.
I recommend this shaft for all mid to high handicap players.

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

I am really disappointed in this product. The quality is very poor. I wasted two shafts trying to get a regular flex even to the point of cutting one to a stiff flex and it was still very whippy and more like a ladies flex.

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

I mated this shaft with a draw weighted driver head because I have a fade. I trimmed the tip for stiff flex hoping these two would bring me back to the fairway. I haven't seen any improvement on the direction of the flight path. However, if you are already in the fairway, this shaft has shown comparable results in distance to any other shaft I have used.

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

Built a set of irons for my cousin using these shafts and Acer XDS wide sole iron heads. The combination is visually stunning and the performance is outstanding. He was always a "low ball hitter" and now his trajectory is much improved. Try the blue ferrules and a blue/black grip....

Comments about Hireko FW11413:Powerflex FW114:

After shafting a set of Calloway X-18 Clones, I began to hit my irons 10yds farther; back to 5yr ago distance. Each shaft I fitted had the same diameter when tipped,(unlike other generic shafts I've tried). When hit properly these shafts perform as well as most I've hit, so I would feel good about using these shafts even for low handicappers.
