Alright so I have been asking around my team and they all say the F-10 (I have powergrip) is a good beginner shaft but not so good for veterans. I've also asked and searched a lot of sites (including this one) and most say to go with F-15's and up but not with the F-10 and I'd like to know why. So if anyone could tell me the basic "problems" with the F-10 powergrip shafts since I haven't found any!

The F10 will bend with a very small amount of force.

it really doesnt matter what you have for a shaft....obviously the f-10 isnt very durable but if its working for you then just keep it and get a new shaft when it breaks

actually your wrong the f-10 power grip is a beast. its very heavy and is very hard to break... i use to have an f-10 back in the day and now i have an ice, you can definelty feel the weight differnece so i would say you get a new one whenever you want, i doubt youll break the f-10.

I agree, although it is very heavy, the f10s are soo unbelivably strong.

i cant speak on the power grip, but my first shaft was a regular f-10, and that only lasted for about a month. it got all kinds of bent when i got rap-checked.
in my opinion, as long as it works for you theres no reason to mess with a good thing. that being said, id invest in a durable shaft if you have the money. my second stick was a brine ultra ti. its my back up stick now (my game stick is a howitzer), but its reliable and a tank. probably the best money ive spent since i started playing

the original f15+titanium regular grip is light and indestructable. best shaft ever made.

Reguler F10= weak
Powergrip F10= heavy but strong.

Eh...
They seem strong.
But my obnoxious neighbor threw his at me,
So i hit it on a tree a few times, and it bent pretty bad, then he tried to grab it, so i hit it again, and it snapped in half.

Depending on your level of play and skill level the f10 could be super strong, or terribly weak.

I wouldn't say the f10 powergrip is by any means strong. I snapped a new one in two with 7 good whacks, and I'm not a big guy. Plus it's fairly heavy and I can't stand that grip.

Yea just today my friend gave me his old al6000 pro and f-10 so i brought therm home and hit them as hard as i could on my liquid metal. The al6000 bent and the 2nd hit snaped it in half(Not surprised), But the f-10 barely even dented and no sign of any bending. Very heavy but great strong beginners shaft.
