I’ve been using the Kuro Kage Silver shaft for about six months now, and I’ve found it to be incredibly stable in windy conditions. My accuracy has improved a lot, and I’m getting consistent distance off the tee.

That’s great to hear! I noticed a significant distance gain as well, especially with my driver. The feel is just outstanding.

I play with a more aggressive swing, and the Kuro Kage Silver has handled it beautifully. The kick point really suits my release, and I feel more confident on longer shots.

5

Totally agree, Tony! My swing is more smooth, and I still get great feedback. It suits a variety of styles, which is impressive.

I’ve tried it in wet conditions too, and it held up surprisingly well. There’s less twisting, and I felt more connected to my shots. Anyone else tried it in the rain?

I played a round in the rain recently as well, and it performed as expected. No loss in power or control, which was refreshing!

8

I’m curious about how well it performs in high humidity. I tend to lose grip when things get sticky. Any thoughts?

9

Great question! I’ve not tried it in extreme humidity yet, but I’d love to hear others’ thoughts. I usually just use a towel frequently.

10

I find this shaft a bit overrated. I used it for a round, and while it was decent, I think my old shaft was better for my playstyle. Just my two cents.

I hear you, Parker. Everyone has different preferences. I’ve had a different experience, but it’s all about finding what works for each of us!

I’ve been using the Kuro Kage Silver for a few months, and I really appreciate its consistency and feel. Compared to the Fujikura Ventus, the Kuro Kage feels a bit stiffer but provides similar distance.

That’s interesting! I found the Ventus to have better shot dispersion. Anyone else notice different results?

I agree with michaelsweeney! The Kuro Kage Silver has a solid feel, but I’ve also tried the Project X HZRDUS and found it a bit more forgiving on mishits.

It’s great to know! I was considering switching to the Kuro Kage Silver, but now I’m torn.

I’ve switched from the Aldila Rogue to the Kuro Kage Silver, and it’s been a fantastic upgrade. The launch characteristics are more aligned with my swing style.

17

That’s really helpful feedback! I’ve been looking for a shaft that fits my game better. How’s the feel?

18

In my experience, the Kuro Kage Silver feels very stable during the swing, providing confidence at impact. If you like a smoother transition, it might be a good fit!

Smoother sounds great! But how does it compare in terms of distance? Anything lacking?

I feel like the distance is comparable to most top brands, though some may say it’s not as long as the Tensei series. Personal preference plays a big role here.
