Thoughts on Recoil shafts

Looking for some opinions/advice here guys.
I recently tried the new XRs by Callaway with the recoil shaft(f4)ithink they were 460 but can't say for sure, and really liked the feel and distance.
Here lies my dilemma. I don't want to pay the kind of money GT wants for the set, so i thought that if i get a set of these shafts and put them in my current irons (TM Rocketbladez with 85g steel)it should give me about the same result.

Here is where i need the expertise of the guys on this forum, suggestions,alternatives,heckling, all gratefully accepted.
I don't have club assembly expertise or equipment so all suggestions for alternatives to GT or Golfworks as an assembler would be welcomed as well.

Thanks
Boomer

Just to let you know the shafts that you are talking about sell for $53 each plus tax at Golf Works.

Thanks, i actually picked up a half a dozen at GT on sale for 47.99 + tax had them installed last weekend, and hit them yesterday. I have to say i saw a big difference (+10 yds a club) based on one round. Very happy i did it so far, talk to me at the end of the season and i will be able to give a more objective review of the shafts and how they worked for me.

Hi Chieflongtee,

These are the ones he bought!

I will have for sale a set from the 5 to gap wedge for sale for $200.00 & these ones are $60.75 a club & are hard to get as the demand is very high even at these costs........I was just fitted into Regular instead of stiff shafts that's why I will be selling them.

Thanks Kidd36 but you are on the US website. They still have them at $39 on the CDN website

Move to the US:-) You are right but you must admit that it's confusing
When I see Canada on top of a page I tend to believe that I am in Canada. Anyway if you sell your pull outs you'll probably end up selling them at $39.99 or less;)

Callaway has a deal I believe still on that if you buy a set (if you're looking to change irons) you can have a free upgrade of shafts.

FYI: I just bought XR with Recoil Shaft 460 and I love them. Light weight and it lets you really feel the club head when swinging.

I recommend it strongly

Bought the same about 3 weeks ago and really like them. Awesome control, great feel and awesome distance on mish1ts... I think they are a bit longer... but is has been cold so hard to say yet...
