How does the TT Bi-Matrix Rocket shaft compare to the Grafalloy Bi-Matrix. True Temper own Grafalloy don't they?

The TT bimatrix is VERY flimsy imo. Also being the only one on this site that plays the Bimatrix shaft.

I absolutely love the graf bimatrix, if you like the feel of more weight down by the head its the shaft for you. The graf bimatrix is 10000% superior to the TT bimatrix, if u test it out, remember that.

A friend of mine has the grafalloy in a G5 and he swears by it. I don't have any experience with the true temper, though my friend says even the grafalloy feels a little soft to its stated flex. When I hit that G5 it seemed very high launching, but that might have just been the G5, not the Bimatrix.

I had a TT Bimatrix in a 3w a few years . Its a horrible shaft IMO. Its was a very low launching shaft, that felt weird and probably had the least predictable kick out of any shaft I've tried. Avoid this shaft

I've never tried The Graf version but in comparison it has a much more active tip and is far smoother . Most people who use it seem to like it. Lots of reviews for this shaft on other forums.

Hmmm... if you never have tried it... oh, never mind.

I would agree a bit with it, but all you have to do is tip it a little and that puts it right back where it should be.

As theyre saying, this shaft will give you exactly what it says it will, higher launching with lower spin, unlike the TT bimatrix which seems to be the opposite of what they say, it seemed to me to be moreso the test run before the proper shaft being put out there. The Graf is the properly tuned version of what the TT tried in the beginning.
