Just wanted to give a shout out to Steve from another satisfied customer. I contacted Steve and explained how I was not satisfied with the Equinox shaft and he wrote me back with some excellent options that he could provide. I settled on a two piece CF shaft with cam lock and 4-1/2 counterbalance with 16oz of weight. I was really impressed with the quality & ease of assembly and once it was all assembled, the amazing balance and how easy it was to swing. The ability to adjust the length to my exact length was an added plus that helped keep the coil parallel to the ground! Thanks again Steve!
