Bubble 2 Golf Club Shaft Appraisal

Bubble 2 Golf Club Shaft

The item is a golf club shaft, specifically identified as a 'Bubble 2 Shaft'. It features a distinctive design with a dark, likely graphite or carbon fiber, main body. A prominent section of the shaft, located below where a grip would typically be, broadens slightly and is finished in a metallic bronze or copper color. This 'bubble' shape is a key design characteristic of certain golf shafts, intended to affect the club's weight distribution and flex profile. The shaft is clearly marked with the text 'BUBBLE 2 SHAFT' in a light, possibly white or silver, font, oriented vertically along the shaft. Below this, there are additional markings: 'R-80' and 'TIFE', also in a light color. These markings likely indicate the shaft's flex rating (R for Regular, 80 for a specific weight or stiffness variant) and potentially the material or manufacturing process. The overall condition appears to be used, with some visible wear on the textured upper portion where the grip would be. The metallic section shows a smooth, reflective surface. The construction appears to be a composite material, characteristic of modern golf shafts designed for optimal performance. The visibility of the original markings and the relatively intact appearance suggest it has been maintained to a reasonable degree, though specific damage is difficult to ascertain from the provided image due to lighting and focus.
