Hireko will offer three Tip Heavy graphite shafts in the 2007 catalog. Two of these that are in the average weight range for graphite iron shafts, which are the Aldila Gamer Iron and the Grafalloy ProLaunch Red shafts. These two shafts can be made to the same lengths and swingweights as a steel shaft, along with the Aldila NV Pro 105, which is approximately the same weight as an ultra-lightweight steel shaft. For strong golfers wanting a head heavy feel, the Aldila NV Pro 105 will provide that, plus it was one shaft that had the highest kick point of virtually any iron shaft we have ever measured.

For clubmakers, you may want to have one of these shafts in your demo iron shafts for your customers to try. For consumers wanting a lightweight club, but doesn’t want to lose the control they are familiar with steel these tip heavy graphite shafts may just be the ticket for better performance.
