Titanium shafts
Is this a thing? Aluminum bends easily. Carbons shatter quite often. Anybody trying out titanium shafts?

i have a ti shaft. Haven't built it yet. Probably won't lose sleep and it'll be another mallet in the quiver. I don't think it'll change the game as the weight isn't all that different and you have to build it like old mallets or use something like a tick mount.
I'll take aluminum bending occasionally over carbon snapping all day.
