They play amazing and this is currently the shaft I'm shooting with myself. The deflection level of this shaft is between the Cuetec Cynergy and Predator Revo. The feel of the hit is between the two as well - stiffer than a Cynergy, but softer than a Revo. The front-end of the shaft is ultra light weight - you'll understand how low deflection this is as soon as you hold it in your hands - and the overall total weight of the shaft is about 4oz (just like a standard shaft).
In spite of the ultra light front end, these shafts are not pingy. They sound similar to a Cynergy. It has a 5mm Juma ferrule, which gives it its soft-hitting feel. The stock tip is rather firm but very grippy.You may wish to have it changed to something softer, but you won't have any issue getting tons of English with the stock tip. (I'm an APA 7/8 and I'm using the stock tip with no issues).
