just picked em up i gotta say they feel alot better than i expected and night and day over the stock shafts.

I think that the Aldila is just as good.

i agree with you and cheaper. Better than expected

Shafts are bit smiliar I've had both and personally I prefer the V2 over the NV  because of the lower trajectory and the bit smoother feel on pure shots :)

Both shafts are great

I've got the red S-flex NV shaft (X-speed) in my Hyper Steel 3+ Wood, and the green NV shaft (F-Speed) in my Hyper Steel 5Wood. At times, I could smash my 3+ Wood, but the shaft and lower loft had me off the fairway more often than what was acceptable. It actually made me hate hitting my 3+ Wood. The Green shaft on the other hand... Pure gold, and my most favorite club in the bag. My driver swing is 105-110, but even if I really go after it with my 5 Wood, I still hit it pretty straight. 

I started searching for another green NV shaft for my 3+ Wood (13* loft?) to try and be able to get it off the ground, but came across the orange NVS in a used club shop in a 3 Wood. I did a quick online search of NVS reviews on my Blackberry while in the shop and found that it's kick-point would help get my 3+ Wood off the ground, even more so than the green NV shaft. Intending to just pull the shaft and put it in my 3+ wood, I bought the club. At the next practice session I hit the 3+ wood with the original red X-Speed shaft, and the other 3 wood with the new NVS shaft (both S-flex) just to make sure a head swap would produce a usable club before I spend money on the swap. The NVS in the other club matched me perfectly. So well in fact that I decided to not even bother putting the NVS in the 3+ wood head, as doing so would lower my ball flight more than I wanted. 

So, that was a long winded "I love the NV and NVS shafts."  

Stable, but buttery soft. I just want to lick it after every shot :P
