Probably a little late for this but I thought I would throw in a response.  Flat out the GD YSQst is one of the best performing shafts out there.  It really is no contest with the Pro Launch Red.  The YSQst uses the same MSI technology as the DI and feels similar (maybe slightly stiffer).  I hit the YSQst 65 in my driver next to a DI 7 and got almost identical launch conditions...both at about 14* with 2400 rpm of spin.  The PL Red to me is just not anywhere near the shaft in terms of feel and performance as the GD shaft.

I have the GD Tour AD YSQ ST in my Ping i20. Simply put it is long and smooth. Bought it new uncut for £25 from gamola golf.

+1 for the YSQst.. If you are looking for mid launch low spin it is a very good option.. PL Red is more low/low.. Where did you go on the simulator? Did they have the fairways set to concrete for those total distance numbers?

Interesting, I was looking at getting one from Gamola also for a G15, I guess if it works well in the i20 it would equally work in the G15?
