Alright starting off the count is now 2 broken shafts and one broken head for this season alone. Anyway i need a new shaft and came across this new company that has been getting good reviews. Just curious what everyone thinks of this shaft.

The grip and material is almost the exact same as the DeBeer DB803, but apparently it is made different so it's stronger. I like this handle a lot actually and wouldn't be surprised if it becomes a pretty big seller.

except it is about double the price of an 803. It is $104.99 and the 803 is around $55.00. But if it is better........

I'm all for any product that is made here and easily delivered. Remember the days of getting stuff quickly? Maybe a new player in the market will cut through a little of the corporate feel that lacrosse didn't have a few years ago.

I know of a couple of Claremont attackmen who need to buy new shafts. Broke right in the middle of the shaft thanks to some hard-hitting Johnnies!
