I’m looking into UST Mamiya Recoil Dart shafts and I’m torn between the 65 and 75-gram options. I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews, and I’m curious about how they compare in terms of performance, feel, and overall suitability for different swing types.

Here are some specific points I’m interested in:

  • Weight and Feel: How does the weight difference affect your swing? Does one feel significantly better?
  • Performance: Are there noticeable differences in distance and accuracy?
  • Recommendations: Which one would you suggest for someone who tends to have a smoother swing versus a more aggressive one?

If anyone has personal experiences or insights on the two shafts, I’d love to hear your thoughts! What have you noticed on the course or during practice sessions? Any technical specs you think are worth highlighting would also be appreciated!

I’ve been comparing the Recoil Dart 65 and 75 for a while now. The main difference I found is that the 75 feels more stable, offering better accuracy, especially for longer shots.

That’s interesting! Have you tested both shafts at different ranges? I’m curious how they perform under various scenarios.

I agree with richard43. The performance does vary with distance. For me, the Dart 65 shoots faster, which helps in shorter ranges but loses a bit of accuracy beyond that.

That’s really helpful to know! Which shaft did you prefer in tight scenarios?

In tight scenarios, I still favor the Dart 65. Speed is critical to my gameplay, even if I sacrifice some precision. It’s about what fits your style.

I dunno, I feel like the Dart 75 can handle that pressure better; accuracy shouldn’t just be cast aside for speed, right?

Speed versus accuracy—such a classic debate! From my experience, it really depends on your play style. What works for one player might not work for another.

For outdoor games, the accuracy of the 75 really shines. I used it against some breezy conditions, and I felt like I had better control overall.

That sounds great! Did you notice any difference in speed when transitioning from indoors to outdoors?

I think the Dart 75 felt slightly slower outdoors, but it’s compensated by enhanced precision. So, it’s a trade-off, really.

Let’s not forget about how fun these shafts are! The Dart 65 gets my adrenaline going, which ultimately adds to my gameplay. Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of thrill?

13

Haha, I get that! But isn’t it also about the results? Adrenaline only wins so many matches!

14

Exactly! In the end, it’s all about what produces the best results for you. Any final thoughts on which has been better in tournament settings?

15

For tournaments, I’d still lean towards the Dart 75. It delivers more consistent results over time, especially under pressure.

16

Totally makes sense! So much of this is about finding the right match for our individual play styles.

The main difference between the Recoil Dart 65 and 75 shafts lies in their material composition and design. The 75 offers a bit more stiffness, enhancing power transfer during throws compared to the 65.

18

That’s a great point! I found that the 75 feels more balanced in hand, making it easier for longer sessions.

I agree, the ergonomics of the 75 are noticeably better. I also prefer its grip texture which feels more secure during throws.

Interesting! Does anyone know if the materials used in the 65 are less durable? I’ve heard some complaints regarding longevity.
