The TrueTemper Project X Frost Denali is a no upcharge option in the 2026 TalylorMade Custom Driver / Fwy shaft options. the 2026 TaylorMade fitting system designates shafts to match a player’s rotation profile as follows:
HR – High Rotation Designed for players who release the club early, with the shaft lining up with the lead arm before or at impact. The shaft is a soft-tip profile to aid in closing the face.
MR – Mid Rotation Designed for players with a neutral release, with the shaft lining up with the lead arm just after impact. The shaft is a middle-of-the-road tip stiffness.
LR – Low Rotation Designed for player who hold the release, with the shaft lining up well after impact. The shaft tip is stiff to prevent the face from closing too quickly.

The Frost Denali series is calorized with this system, Red = HR, Blue = MR and Black = LR.
