UST Mamiya ATTAS Hybrid

The ATTAS Hybrid is a premium shaft from UST Mamiya. It uses the same AXIV weave material in the butt section as the AXIVCore products. The mid and tip are made of ultra thin carbon graphite, allowing for more piles of material. This results in lower torque, smoother profiles and a long stiff tip.
The shaft to shaft consistency is excellent. Radial quality is excellent, torque ranges from 2.5 in the 85R to 2.3 in the 100 X.
It is a unique hybrid profile, modeled on the ATTAS driver shaft. A soft butt allows early loading in the downswing with a smooth, controlled swing. The quick loss of stiffness in the mid is complimented with a long uniformly stiff tip. It is a mid high launching shaft with low torque numbers that delivers tight dispersion. The profile is similar to the Nippon Modus3 irons shaft. This is has long been one of my favorite hybrid shafts.
