Nippon Steel introduces the new Zelos 8 steel shaft. It utilizes a new steel called the NZNS60 which is stronger than the standard steel shaft, allowing the shaft to be made thinner and lighter than ever before. The Zelos shaft is made to feel very close to a carbon shaft while having the tight dispersion of a steel shaft.

The Zelos 8 is a mid high launch shaft made for those players looking for a very light shaft with steel like performance with carbon like feel. The launch characteristic is very consistent without any ballooning of the ball. The Zelos 8 is said to help the average player achieve an easy high launch and maximum distance.
