This page is the complete Mitsubishi shaft comparison guide for every driver and wood shaft stocked at Grips4Less a Top Authorized Mitsubishi Dealer. Use the table below to compare launch, spin, kick point, and stiffness profiles — butt, mid, and tip — across the full Mitsubishi lineup, from the most aggressive low-launch options through the highest-launching models.
How to read this table: Launch and spin are sorted from lowest to highest. The Butt, Mid, and Tip columns show the stiffness of each shaft section — a firm tip stabilizes the head for lower spin, while a softer tip promotes higher launch. Kick point (High, Mid, or Low) tells you where the shaft loads during your swing.

Profile stiffness scale from softest to firmest: Soft → Medium → Firm → Stiff → Ultra-stiff. Tip stiffness most directly influences launch angle and spin rate. A stiffer tip produces lower launch and lower spin. A softer tip produces higher launch and more spin. TENSEI 1K Black carries the stiffest tip profile in the lineup. VANQUISH and Grand Bassara carry the softest tip profiles for maximum launch and speed.
Mitsubishi Launch & Spin Chart
Where each Mitsubishi shaft sits on the launch and spin spectrum. Lower launch and spin = more control and penetrating flight. Higher launch and spin = more carry distance and height.
TENSEI 1K Black, Diamana WB, and Diamana PD sit at the lowest launch and lowest spin in the Mitsubishi lineup — best for fast swingers needing a penetrating ball flight. Grand Bassara, C6 Red, and VANQUISH sit at the highest launch and spin end, designed for players needing maximum height and carry distance.
