UST has made me a believer. I played Mitsubishi shafts for years and tried the original Attas for kicks and loved it. I have Attas T2's in the fairways and awaiting a Attas T3 in a Nike Pro Limited head. Can't wait!!!

Yeah they have really done good things over the past two years.  You should try an Attas Element DK, I think you would like it a lot.

Do you have any spec on it? Where can I purchase?

[Big Ben]

Send Will a PM, he will work it out for you...BB

[willpeoples]

I got a few of the Elements in today, check out how sweet these look. I will be testing them and getting a review on them this week.

I cannot wait to hear a review. They look sweet....

[Sean25rp]

Holy smokes those look nice! Also looking forward to review!

RBZ 3wd / Attas Elements combo would be pretty good match and would look pretty sick to boot!  Put me down for one.  

When do you expect the RBZ's 3wd's Will?

Yeah it does!  I actually have a couple coming tomorrow, email me.  Waiting list gets first dibbs but I am pretty sure you are up at the top anyways.

I just ordered an Attas Elements DK 7S from Will with a razr fit tip. Should be a sick combo!

Thanks again for all the help

Mike

I'll have what he's having...Thanks Will, these look great!

[leet74]

changing the VTS graphics to all black is a HUGE MISTAKE imo!!

[beckk10]

The element is one of the most impressive shafts I've tried.

Yea, I was thinking the same thing but I wont pass judgement until I see the 2012 VTS graphics in hand.

[fairwayallday]

I want one in an i20.

I just got both the tour spx element and vts shafts in and they look amazing in person. I will take pictures later.

thanks again Will Peoples!!

I have one in stock, it could be yours!!!!




Ask John (3GWrX09) how sweet they are!  One of the best looking clubs I have seen.  As he said TM and UST worked together on this build.  The green matches perfectly.

The Black is actually a really good looking shaft.  Also the main reason they changed it was to give the TourSPX shaft a different look so it would be easier to differentiate the two.

Agreed man, I am getting great results with these.  I was surprised they could actually make a shaft better than the VTS but they did with the element.

Hold on Will, I said it APPEARS that UST and TM collaborated on this because the color scheme is spot on!  LoL
I do not have proof just speculation!

Anybody know what the difference is between the RK, MK, DK in the ELements shaft? Also, looking for the torque comparison between the 6s, and 6x.

[willpeoples]

Rk is low launch (60g torque- 3.4)
MK is mid launch (60g torque- 4.5)
DK is high launch (60g torque- 3.4)

[paul1406]

thanks for the info

Some contradictory info circulating around regarding kickpoint and launch conditions with these shafts. Will, you list the characteristics you believe them to be, above, while the ones below are from Spy Zinger. Let's make sure we don't confuse launch angle and kickpoint. Obviously, a high kickpoint will generally launch lower, while a low kickpoint will generally launch higher. It looks like one you guys have the MK and RK mixed up. So, which is it?

Spy Zinger reports:
"The ATTAS Elements is offered in three profiles:

the DK (Dynamic Kick/Highest Launch),
the RK (Radical Kick/mid launch), and
the MK (Macho Kick/lowest launch)."

When these first came out they didn't know exactly where to place each one.  At first they said MK was Mid.  After experimenting and getting more data it is closer to low.  I have found it to be very similar to the RK with just a slightly stiffer tip which causes it to launch a tad lower than the RK.  I would say RK is low launch, MK is low launch stiffer tip, and DK is high launch.  Truth be told these don't really fit into the three launch characteristic groups they might want them to, also every player is different so one might find it to be a little different than the next...

Also the VTS still remains the more popular one on tour and off, it really is one of the best shafts ever made IMO. Here is who is playing what, last i checked.

I have the tourspx vts red shafts in my driver and fairway wood and love them. They are incredibly stable and fairly long. I've hit more fairways with these shafts than any other combo I've tried. Moreover, the shafts are reasonably responsive and smooth which is something I was slightly concerned about. UST really hit a home run imo.

[Thaddy]

Will built two Tour SPX Silver X shafts for me to use in my 910 D2 and 910 Fd.  I can't wait to give these a shot.  It's a shaft I haven't payed much attention to but seems to have quite a lot of tour presence and gets great reviews.  May have to pick up a hybrid shaft to complete the trio
