The Aldila NV Hy X-Stiff sits near the typical hybrid-shaft weight range at 3 oz (85 g), while its 2.6° torque is on the lower side. Its mid launch / mid spin profile and stable / control-oriented character make it best suited to medium-fast or fast tempos. Relative to the other weights and flexes around it, this one sits at the heaviest end of the related weight range and a higher-torque position.
