Orka GS5 Driver

I tried the Nippons as part of my fitting process, really didn't like them, they felt very dead to me.

Just goes to show, its apples and pears mate. I hate KBS they just don't work for me, harsh and the ball flight just seemed to rise and fall out of the sky. On the other hand the Nippon shaft give me a much better trajectory and feel as well as an increase in distance.

I thought you said custom fitting was all a con not so long back??

Your Apples and Pears comparison, highlights one of the main benefits of CF to me - shafts play differently and react differently to people, because were not Iron Byrons; we are putting different swings, stresses and strains on the shafts because we all pretty much hit the ball differently. What is one golfer's dream shaft is another one's nightmare.

I've just picked up a GS5 driver and I love hitting it. I can't see it on the current conforming list though. Does anyone know anything about whether it has been removed, or was never on there?
