Last year, I wanted to buy a limited edition US Open Proforce V2 shaft but wasn’t sure which type would be the right fit. I stopped by the UST Mamiya office and was fitted for the F4 shaft. Lindsay was very helpful and knowledgeable and I felt that I learned a lot about my swing. The V2 helped to narrow my dispersion, increased loft and distance and it felt great during the backswing and follow through. It definitely helped to improve my drives and gave me more confidence to hit with power. A great product and experience and I look forward to my next UST Mamiya purchase!

About 8 months ago on a whim I tried a ProForce v2 HL shaft in my driver. I’ve always struggled to get a high enough launch to really maximize my driver distance. I would buy 10.5 heads and crank them up to 12.5. My flight was low enough that I was contemplating going with a 13* head. Now with the HL I’m playing 10.5* head at….10.5*. Between the lower left and higher launch my mid to upper 90s swing speed is actually producing some quality drives. Mix in the fact that the shaft feels stable enough to step on a drive if I need it and the dispersion is great, my fairways hit percentage is through the roof. Being in the FW instead of the ruff allows me to score better and as such my handicap has already dropped 3 strokes. Thanks UST!

I switched to a HElium shaft from a Speeder 559 in my driver a few months ago, and the results have been nothing short of incredible. I picked up about 10 yards with the new shaft, but the real difference has been my increased accuracy. I’ve never hit as many fairways as I am with the HElium, and my handicap has dropped from a 20 to 16 with a simple driver shaft switch. Thanks UST Mamiya, you made my big stick fun to hit again!

I was fit into Recoils 5 months ago, during the fitting my dispersion shrunk to half of what it was using steel shafts that fit me pretty well. I was pretty amazed, even more so when it carried over to the course and my handicap went from 13 down to single digits. It’s stayed in the single digits and been as low as 7, I’m playing the best golf of my life and now have UST Mamiya shafts from driver to wedges and couldn’t be happier.

The recoil shafts have improved my game way more than I ever could have imagined. It’s amazing how great the dispersion is now compared to my steel shafts. I am consistently shooting better scores now than I ever have. The feel is amazing and I love the launch I get. Not to mention how much they help your joints compared to steel. One day I plan on adding some UST goodness into my woods as well.

Just switched to Recoil shafts for my irons at the recommendation of a couple of buddies. I have never hit my irons higher and longer than I am now with these shafts. I was hitting 95 gram steel shafts before and now I’m in 125g Recoils for my 7 thru P and 110g in the 4,5 and 6.If I do have a mishit the only way I can tell is by the sound, literally no vibration whatsoever. My only regret is not making this change 3 yrs ago!!!

Put the recoil 110 f4 in my irons and the 125 protos in my wedges and saw improved dispersion and similar overall flight to my steel shafts. Wear and tear on the joints was much easier and wasn’t as tired after rounds or practice…felt like I could hit balls all day. Have the elements helium in my driver and 3 wood. The stability of the shaft for being lightweight is amazing and have never felt the ability to control the head like this. The shaft makes the 3w easy to hit off the deck and get launching nice and high.

I swing my woods about 115mph and I have Proforce V2 76x in my Driver, 86x in my 3w and 100hy-x in my hybrid. Hands down the best shaft for woods if you swing aggressively and have a steep angle. Very stable tip and you can really “go after” a shot with confidence. These are especially awesome with woods off the deck. The low torque allows the leading edge of the fairway wood and/or hybrid to enter the turf and not break down! Excellent shaft and great value compared to some of the overhyped and overpriced stuff out there. Good work UST Mamiya!

I just had a Proforce V2 65s made up for my R9 Supertri. I have tried several shafts for this head from different shaft companies. The Proforce V2 is the best of the best. I have not missed a fairway in three rounds and have 15 more yards of carry distance. I was so pleased, I am going to install a V2 75s in my Adams F11 3 wood. My shaft fitter recommended the Proforce V2 and I’m glad he did. Thanks UST for making outstanding shafts!

After playing DG 300S shafts for the majority of my golfing life I had to make a decision due to arthritis pain to either stop golf or change shafts in my Ping Irons to try and obtain some relief from vibration and shock of hitting balls, In the past I have been sceptical of graphite in favour of steel however not now.The decision to change shafts to Mamiya Recoil Smacwrap 780ES shafts has been a god send-no elbow or handpain now. This has allowed me to increase my swing speed with no loss of distance or playability-high or low shots no problem and very stable.Thank You Mamiya from a very happy Scottish Customer
