I love how there are no words during the driver shots.. it deserved that absolutely phenomenal looking flight so nice ! Gotta get them
I haven't been able to play golf in almost 3 years due to physical problems, but I always watch your videos. Most of it is hard to understand for this old phart, but they give me something to enjoy in these hard times.
I have to take a 2.5 year break away from the game due to physical problems. Hang in there and don’t give up hope.
Perfect golf content doesn’t exis . . . .
Thanks for the vid guys, looks like a shaft I definitely would like to try in a fitting. Cheers!
The double edged sword of being Matt - get to hit everything out there, but also makes it tough to be happy with anything in your bag for very long! Another great video gents
Hzrdus shafts and me just work really well together! I'm excited about this
Love the detailed shaft video. Keep them coming.
The content from txg is so engaging. From follow up videos about autoflex and touching on topics that we may be curious about is what I enjoy about the channel. Gotta get these guys to 1 million club.
It’s golf porn that’s what it is
Great descriptions from Matt about the feel and shot experience... Plus, since metal driver heads and CF shafts, the match between them has been ignored or poorly understood. Good work guys!
I gotta say I love seeing Matt swing the SIM, he seems confident with it
Let’s see the Hzrdus smoke blue with the Cobra RAD driver
Got fit into a TSi3 4 wood in the RDX USA edition. So smooth and stable can’t wait to see how this RDX line develops.
I can’t be the only one that wants to hear more about Ian testing longer driver setups!
Love the content on go the golf shafts and pairing them up with certain heads.
Been waiting for this one!!!!
Matt's new T-shirt......"Mother Of ffffffff Pearl" :-)
You know you now have to do Ventus vs RDX test now, right?? 😂
I have never tried many shafts in fittings but this sounds like one that would be worth searching for
Hopefully it will show up somewhere near me in the UK so I can try it
Are you guys able to start doing deep dives on shaft lineups? For example, the full project X wood line-up or the DG iron shaft lineup etc etc. Help us get a sense of the characteristics of each shaft and what type of player each shaft is aimed at. A lot of us dont have the means to access a fitter, so having that information about these shafts will help us make better buying decisions when buying second hand or buying online.
Great to watch while I’m eating my lunch and its 33 deg outside with Wind Chill.... You guys rock.
Would love to see a review of a driving iron with this Smoke Blue shaft 🙏🏼 Perhaps the Srixon Driving iron 😏
Driving irons use hybrid shafts. They currently don’t make the Blue in hybrid.
Such a long smooth swing with massive numbers. Matts swing is my goal
Would be interested to hear your thoughts on how shafts have evolved over recent years, maybe take a look back at some classics (Gafalloy Blue, Speeder 757, White/Blueboard, Tour AD-DI, Fubuki, etc.) and see how those designs/performance compare to the newest options on the market.
Hit the RDX black and it felt amazing. Firm, but still elastic and loaded the full length of the shaft. I could really release hard and it not hook. Would love to see you guys do a comparison.
You guys make me want to buy everything
Please review the True Temper AMT shafts! Specifically the effects of the weight through the set of irons 🙏
This would be great. I would love to see the guys compare the Red, Black and White across Pitching Wedge, 7 iron and 4 iron
We love shafts videos thanks
very interested to see how this compares to the new diamana blue TB and if that is an improvement vs previous generations. great stuff
Ok, You guys seriously need to get a shop to sell stuff from, Ian has got the nicest golf clothes on. I love the TXG LOGO on the sleeve along with the Galvin Green shirts. If you do have the shop I can't find a link anywhere . I wish I had Matts ability to mold his swing to play off the tee with most shafts he tries , He truly is "AutoMattic".
They are waiting for it to come in so Matt can put it on the website. That GG looks so good!
txg.ca/store/
They do sell some stuff here. Not sure if that's what you're looking for. I thought about getting some TXG head covers or towels to show support from the states.
well done boys ... not even four minutes into the video and people are ready to get the shaft... !!!!
I have the Hzdous Green on a TM M6 it is the best combination I have ever had, love it dont think I can convince myself to upgrade
How does Matt even choose his equipment. He pretty much hits everything good. I cant wait to see him hit a Srixon driver after watching Big Al hit it.
Project X Nailing the best looking shaft award!
never clicked so fast on a vid!
Why was this shaft not more popular or such short lived popularity? All the reviews are great.
Wondering also
@@TheTurbomopar I bought 2 of them 70g 6.5, too stiff for me in driver, also feels too counter weighted for my liking. Building a 60g 6.0 this weekend. I think that's going to be a good one. I might try the 70g 6.5 in a 3 wood. These shafts can be had pretty cheap, they look great.
@@bigjerm9657 I just bought a 60g 6.5 to try in driver not sure how the counter weight will feel. I have a rdx smoke black 6.0 to compare to
Hovland just put the RDX black in driver, won with it yesterday. Definitely gotta hand it to TT for the aesthetics on these too
Fantastic content as always guys. Matt smoking 3 woods like he’s making 2 foot putts is very upsetting
Love the Hzrdus shafts. Play the Hulk in the drive and yellow in my 4 wood.
HexTow is Hexcel's Spread Tow Fabric, similar to Textreme that had been used in the original Project X Black shafts. It has a higher strength to weight ratio than standard woven fabric composites and behaves closer to the conventional unidirectional plies used in carbon shafts, but holds better off-axis properties. Also, the fibers stay very flat in the weave pattern which lets them hold a higher fiber content volume fraction, so you can use less resin and keep the shaft lighter than when using equivalent standard woven fabrics (or probably even filament wound ones too). Seems like they can use the HexTow to create a more stable shaft throughout its on and off-axis loading range while staying in the standard weight range compared to only using unidirectional plies.
Matty is a machine!
I wanna game this shaft. I currently play hzrdus smoke black 6.5, with TS2 head. This really looks like something worth my while!!!
Hexcel is s graphite manufacturer, much like Toray. We use their prepregs on Boeing thrust reversers. They make some excellent products.
Hoping to see the ZX5/7 soon! Both Michael Newton and Al have smoked them! Look very impressive
Nostalgia...I'm a sucker for an ion plated shaft!
Me too!!
Was just fit the a SIM2 with the HZRDUS RDX Smike Blue 70 Stiff. The shaft felt slightly more lively in the swing and I could time the hit better than the Black.
Chemist here, seeing True Temper work with Hexcel is pretty exciting. Hexcel makes solid graphite products. I would bet TT was able to take a ventus blue and reverse engineer the velocore construction (pretty easy for anyone who does carbon fiber work), and perhaps improve upon it with better materials and design. Fujikura's marketing is more aggressive than TT so we might not see blue rdx being pushed during fits mass wide as much...but will be interesting to hear Ian in one year about the two shafts' performances for txg customers.
Nice to see how repeatable his drives are at a mid 2k spin rate. I’d like to see how he does on the course with a higher ball flight and spin rate rather than just what looks optimal indoors.
I attended a Cobra fitting this summer and tried a Hzdrus Smoke yellow in the Speed Zone driver with a stiff shaft. Lost my hook and was hitting power fades longer than normal. The fitter said I should have a regular shaft but he didn't have one on hand so I didn't buy the club. It did feel great though.
The nice thing about the Hzrdus RDX Blue/Black is that you can get the non-PVD, which is the exact same shaft, with an adapter and grip installed for about $140. That is more than half of what the Venus Black/Blue run.
What is non PVD?
I have played a few of the HZRDUS Smoke shafts in both driver and FW metals, and the HZRDUS Yellow 6.0 was in the top 3 or 4 driver shafts that I have hit in 2019-2020. I also have always liked the Mitsubishi Diamana Blueboard (or S+) shafts, so perhaps this shaft would be a contender for me to try. If I hadn’t stumbled upon the Miyazaki Kusala Mizu (5554 profile) shafts, I would probably still be playing the HZRDUS Smoke Yellow 6.0 in my driver and a Diamana S+ 7S in my 4-wood.
Diamana TB vs Ventus Blue vs Blue RDX in a fairway would be a great video.
Great video
I've got the old blue version in my xr speed 3 wood and love it you should compare against old version
Man oh man did Matt hammer that shaft. And looked effortless doing it. How can that not go in his bag?
Matt, after the second swing with both the 3 wood and the driver, you should have jus bagged em 🤣😳😉
I have the 70TX in my driver. It is awesome.
Hexel is the CF mfg and Hextow is the product. Each CF mfg (Mitsubishi, Toray, Nippon, Hexcel etc) has a variety of product names. This is the first time I have seen a Hexcel product in a golf shaft.
I hated the black one can’t wait to try the blue thanks lads
Love the video . Would love to see a video explaining and showing what the difference on shaft performance between heavy and light loaders or fast and slow transitions
Wow that shot that hit the flag 😮
Matt out here just smoking his 3 wood straight to the pin at 300...
You gotta cut him some slack at least, like he says, he's "not the best 3W hitter"...
@@alexandergale5471 To be fair, they weren't very accurate. (sarcasm off)
@@michealweathers4769 I know right, it didn't even go in the hole!
GC Quad adds false distance for low spin, high speed shots.
@@tylerpaschal9401 true. You can get like 370+ yard drives on 180 ball speed. I’d like to see Finau on one of these things 😂
I have a Hzdous Green in my driver, and absolutely hate it. Looking forward to getting a fit in the run up to next season
Try graphite designs. got the tour ad TP and I LOVE it
Ian, the Green and White midlayer 😬 must be feeling like rubbing it in the face of Celtic with Rangers' 7 point lead? ... Sure you made Matt get dressed in Navy before filming to off set your outfit 😂
Top vid as always boys, but it's still the Smoke GREEN for me 😜😂
I love smoke black in a Titleist and standard Hzrdus yellow in a Ping (drivers). Didn't enjoy the smoke yellow in either. Original Hzrdus red in 3 wood. Driver speed around 95 mph.
I would like to see Matt try the smoke green non TX version. I play the green 6.5 in driver and black 6.5 in 3 wood and its great
I'm loving my RDX Blue in driver. May go 5 wood also in it
Take my advice and do it!!! That's what I did. On my irons I have project x LZ 6.5 125 gram, it's the same design as the rdx blue with soft mid , stiff top and bottom.
On my driver I have the blue rdx 6.5 and blue rdx TX on my 5 wood
Would love to see a comparison of hzrdus red vs the rdx blue
Matt's got like 10 eagle putts on this little par 4!
Denali 🖤 black with the new Paradym Smoke 💨 🔹🔹🔹has some serious ball speed!!
Love to see a mid and high handicapped review of this shaft. What’s the price point of this shaft?
You know Matt is going to go with the Autoflex shaft.
Got one of these shafts (typical used for 2 rounds story) for £80, for my M5 Tour head. Trying to find a SIM driver now for under £250 is really weird. TM stuff is like the Apple of Golf, as far as buzz for used stuff.
Super interesting this one is.. I currently play the haz green TX. Just got a tsi with the Rdx black is x stiff but now I am super curious about the blue TX...
HZRDUS 🔥
Another video idea with the popularity of hzrdus shafts...TX version vs “standard version. Built of Ventus tipping video...is the TX just tipped extra and a fancy paint job..
Off the stick!!
That is a good looking shaft 😍 Making me wanna get fit for a sim
Would like to see the Aldila DVS shaft
Got fitted for the RDX Smoke (black) on my Tsi3, what's the difference between them? (no info on the PX website).
Also, just like Matty said the shaft is very forgiving just like Velocore, i don't know how many times i've hit a drive and going one handed because i thought it was going left or right but it just stays on line. Incredible stuff for not being a upcharge.
I see a challenge from Big Al on how far y’all can hit a 3 wood.
Yet, another great video lads, just a quick question for you... Would you look to marry this shaft with a TS2 (not TSi2)? I've currently the Hzrdus Smoke 6.0 60g; swing speed circa 95-98MPH .
Smooth as small batch 🥃
Will that shaft matrix be available to the public? I love the idea of hearing more about different shafts being offered. Would love to have a resource that I can rely on instead of trying and buying shafts, which I already do! I am a shaft ho! :P
How does the balance point compare to those of the origal std Yellow and the hand crafted T1100 (which i both love)?
Ian, when you fitting Mark Crossfield? That would be a full video fit i would love to see
Never gonna happen, crossfield has been cynical about "shaftoids" in the past.
Stiff tip, stip butt with counterbalancing is exact description of the Nunchuk first designed by Gerry Hogan in 1990 and reintroduced about 15 years ago.
The mid flex point allows the torque and twist to happend during DS and shaft to straightened with square face at impact.
Clearly Nunchuk has been copied once patent expired. All shafts will eventually pick up on the genius of the design.
I’m left handed too. You could show a 100 drives by ol Matty with no talking and I’d sit there and watch every second.
Been watching a long time and I think I’ve finally placed the accent. Tell me you aren’t from Georgia?
You nailed it!!
Matt mentioned swing at 120+ to swing a TX flex. Ian, do you have any to add on that? I'm around 116 and wasn't sure if I should go for the TX flex. Theren't aren't really places around here that have that flex to try so I'll have to buy/sell.
Do you think they are starting to make shafts that fit perfectly with certain clubheads? This seems tailor made for...well...Taylormade SIM.
Please do rdx blue vs ventus blue/black review with driver. Thanks!
I’m curious if the shafts they are testing are tipped or just built straight in
When are you doing the black RDX?
Very well said!! have a Sim 2 Max driver coming in with an RDX Blue 60 6.0, curious to test it out and see how it compares to my sim max combo last summer. :)
I was fit into a G425 LST with Ventus blue and the second best option was a Smoke Yellow. I was swinging the Smoke Yellow faster and hitting it further but the dispersion and feel was better with the Ventus. Is the Smoke Blue a good compromise consider higher balance point? No one has the Smoke Blue to test.
Are you going to be testing the RDX black? I currently swing a Hzrdus black (not smoke). I hit that very well with my maverick 163-168 ball speed. Would the black rdx or blue rdx be a better fit profile wise.
Hey you guys discussed or reviewed the RDX Black? I got fit for the 70g 6.5 flex today in my M1 and would love to hear feedback.
No joke I get 126-128mph ss from my 3 hybrid with PX Black when driver max is 131, have PX green in Driver
“Slightly softer midsection”. same here
Is there a general flex guide for swing speeds for the Hzrdus line?
Do a Fujikura Motore X F3 vs RDX Smoke Blue driver shaft comparison.
