I am thinking about getting a nice stick for once and was looking at the Harrow I-Beam(tell me if you want link to it) as my shaft. I was wondering two things:

1. Is this stick comfortable and will i be alright switching from a normal shaft

2. and does anyone know what kinds of heads this shaft will work with cause once i tried switching a putting a Brine head on a STX shaft and it didnt work.

thanks

Also if any knows of this shaft being crappy what else might you suggest me get, right now basically anything is better than what i have because i have some low end stick from Dicks Sporting Goods as of now.

id say go w/ a field attack(more colors) and the flex point on i-beams is alright, but imo i like striaght shafts and you will have to drill a hole in the shaft

i have an i-beam, it takes a while to get used to because of the flex point, but it is a good durable shaft.

There is a review on Laxnation.com

The I-Beam is good. But vurrry not durable. Get a howitzer for a good feel or any straight shaft.

stick with the field attack or a normal shaft (TI if u want something nice) the flex point on the i-beam is difficult to get used to and also a more vulnerable breaking point. Its a nice shaft, just not ur best bet. This is however, a preferance thread.

Just get the Field Attack... Or look into a cheaper more durable F-15(had to squeeze it in...)

The Harrow i-Beam is amazing, but only while it lasts...
