The Tensei Pro 1K White is among my favorite fitting shafts. The carbon fiber weave below the butt adds hoop strength and the firm mid is a great fit for skilled swings. A new shaft in the Tensei 1k model gets my immediate attention. This shaft lacks the “Pro” designation in its name so I had some concern that is lacked the same carbon kevlar weave below the handle as i see in the Pro models. Comparing hoop deformation to the White Pro 1K I don’t see any difference between shafts of the same weight and stiffness. And that is great news in a no upcharge OEM shaft.
