Supernova Graphite Driver/Fairway Wood Golf Shafts - Mid-High Launch

In this review the Supernova Graphite Driver/Fairway Wood Golf Shafts are evaluated for players seeking a dependable mid-high launch and measured feel. The bottom line: these shafts use a premium 40-ton high modulus carbon fiber layup to deliver tighter dispersion and added ball speed for golfers who want a balance of stability and touch. This review focuses on how the shaft's construction, weight and flex options translate to on-course performance and whether the Supernova is a sensible replacement for popular driver and fairway heads.

Key Features

• Premium layup: The proprietary SK Fiber construction uses 40-ton high modulus aerospace carbon fiber to increase ball speed and promote tighter shot dispersion.
• Mid-high launch profile: Shafts are tuned to produce a mid-high launch and mid spin, which helps players gain distance without excessive ballooning.
• Balanced stability and feel: The design aims to give a stable feel through the swing while retaining feedback for improved shot shaping.
• Multiple weights and flexes: Available in various weight and flex combinations so golfers can better match a shaft to their swing speed and tempo.
• Universal tip diameter: The 0.335' tip fits TaylorMade, Callaway, Ping, Titleist, Cobra and other driver and fairway heads using that common specification.

Who It's For

The Supernova shaft suits mid to faster tempo players who want a mid-high launch and moderate spin, and who value improved dispersion and increased ball speed from a high-quality carbon fiber layup. Golfers replacing factory shafts on modern drivers and fairway woods with a 0.335' tip will find these shafts especially useful.

Players who need ultra-lightweight specialty shafts, full adapter kits, or preinstalled grips should look elsewhere, since these replacement shafts are sold without adapters or grips and assume the buyer has a compatible club head and fitting plan.

Pros & Cons
