Joss Standard Shaft

High-Performance Playability

The Joss Kielwood High-Performance Shaft is built for players who demand low deflection without sacrificing spin control. Unlike traditional low-deflection shafts that limit cue ball movement, this advanced design allows for precise draw, topspin, and side spin, providing superior shot control.

By utilizing cutting-edge shaft technology and a low-deflection package integrated at the front end, this shaft significantly reduces cue ball deflection while maintaining a natural, solid hit. The torrified maple undergoes a thermal treatment process that removes moisture and resin, creating a lighter, stiffer, and more stable shaft that resists warping.

The Gorget© ferrule is designed with minimal flexibility, reducing unwanted vibrations and ensuring a consistent, predictable stroke. It is secured using an expanding adhesive and threaded attachment, reinforcing long-term durability and energy transfer. The linen-based phenolic insert at the joint provides a snugger fit than standard brass inserts, minimizing vibrations and enhancing the overall playing experience.

With these innovations, the Joss Kielwood HP Shaft delivers a crisp, controlled hit, ensuring accuracy, consistency, and durability—all with the feel of traditional maple.
