New shaft ho

I'm pretty new to the shaft ho game. I noticed a post by Rory (Indacup) offering new creations at $150. Im really thinking about this.

Before seeing that I was looking at the Comp NT, Prolaunch Plat and Red, and any other shaft I could read about. The creation is definitely on the high end price wise and seems to be the high end performance wise also.

I'm not a big shot but $150 is something I'd be willing to drop for something that would feel great in a driver.

I play the VS Proto in 70-S right now. I like the way it feels, but I'm getting the itch to get something else. The VS Proto I got from this site is 60-R and in the Burner TP. I don't think that can stay in there anymore. So I'm looking for something to pair with that.

Comp NT - discontinued. Mid-Launch. Stable. Great shaft.
Prolaunch Plat - direct replacement for the Comp NT (according to the Graffaloy national sales manager).
Prolaunch Red - Low launch.
Creation - You better be a beast to play this shaft (105mph minimum?)

I dont think this is the case at all. I swing smooth at 100 mph and have no trouble at all with the Creation in S flex, heck this was the case with the 80g model even.

I averaged 103 for my driver fitting. I wasn't letting it go wild it was pretty controlled. I think I'd be ok with the 60 or 65 whatever it is. Even if I don't get along with it I can ho it off.

I like what I read about the Comp NT. I have found a few of them for pretty cheap.

Thanks for all the input.

I don't know if Rory has any, but the Creation does come in R flex.

Just a note.

If you can hit the Proto in S, the Creation in S will be fine. It will feel tighter, but that's for good reason.

I haven't installed my Creation yet. If you like the VS, you'd like the CompNT. I really wouldn't see any reason to switch from VS to CompNT personally. Those 2 are very close to each other.

I play the VS and the Creation, both in stiff.

Last night on the sim, I was not under 110 with the driver all night, and I still feel the stiff was just fine.

110 yards, you're really knocking them out there.
