Demo'd Veylix Rome 688 in X-flex. Love love this shaft. Surprisingly smooth for as stout as it plays. No launch monitor data, but def in the lower end of my launch window where I want it. I'd estimate 11-12* with 120mph swing speed, and normally I'm a high spin guy. Low spin butter cuts for days. I am a buyer Jason on 3rd Jun 2020
I'm about a 7 handicap. 101-106 mph driver speed and I tend to hit it pretty high. I actually tested this a few Oban shafts, the Aldila 125 MSI Rogue, Tour AD M9003, and a few others. The Veylix Rome 688 was by far the best. It was close between the Rogue and this but for me the Rome was incredible. Hit my record long drive with each shaft actually. But the most accurate and longest was the Rome. Highly recommend it. Tristan Belue on 13th Mar 2017
