The Project X HZRDUS Smoke iM10 50 6.0 Stiff Driver Shaft is engineered for golfers seeking a refined combination of lightweight speed, mid-launch performance, and dependable stability.

Built using advanced Hexcel iM10 carbon fibre, the lightweight 50g-class profile delivers a smoother and more playable interpretation of HZRDUS performance — providing excellent control without the demanding feel associated with the lowest-launch shafts in the range.

Full Product Description

Overview

The Project X HZRDUS Smoke iM10 50 6.0 Stiff was developed to provide golfers with the stability associated with the HZRDUS family in a smoother, lighter, and more versatile performance profile.

At the heart of the shaft is Hexcel's iM10 carbon fibre, a material selected to provide an effective combination of stiffness and strength. This allows Project X to create a lightweight structure capable of maintaining stability without requiring the excessively rigid feel often associated with traditional low-spin performance shafts.

That distinction is central to the iM10.

Where shafts such as HZRDUS Black are designed primarily around aggressive stability and lower launch, the Smoke iM10 MID provides a more neutral performance window with mid launch, mid spin and noticeably smoother loading characteristics.

In the 50 6.0 configuration, the shaft combines a true Stiff flex with a lightweight 57g construction, creating an attractive option for golfers who want additional speed without giving up control.

The result is a driver shaft designed to deliver speed, feel, stability, and all-round playability rather than forcing the golfer into an extreme launch profile.

Performance Overview

The HZRDUS Smoke iM10 50 6.0 is engineered around a mid-launch, mid-spin profile, producing a versatile trajectory that combines useful carry distance with dependable directional control.

Its defining characteristic is the balance between smooth loading and structural stability.

During transition, the shaft responds progressively rather than feeling excessively rigid. This allows golfers to maintain rhythm and timing while still receiving enough resistance from the shaft to maintain awareness of the clubhead.

The stable midsection helps control excessive deformation during the downswing, while the iM10 carbon construction provides the strength required to maintain consistency as speed increases.

Through impact, the shaft delivers a controlled release without the pronounced kick sometimes associated with lightweight, mid-launch profiles.

At 57g, the 50 6.0 also offers excellent speed potential. Golfers moving from a traditional 60g or 70g driver shaft can benefit from reduced overall weight while retaining the stability expected from a performance-oriented Project X shaft.

The result is a shaft that delivers:

• Balanced mid-launch trajectory
• Controlled mid-spin performance
• Lightweight speed from the 57g construction
• Smooth and progressive loading
• Stable midsection performance
• Consistent energy transfer through impact
• Predictable ball flight and dispersion

Key Technologies

Hexcel iM10 Carbon Fibre

The Smoke iM10 family uses Hexcel iM10 carbon fibre, engineered to provide an effective balance between material stiffness and strength.

This allows Project X to create a lighter shaft structure while retaining the stability and consistency required for performance driver applications.

Stable Midsection

The midsection is engineered to remain controlled under load, helping reduce excessive shaft movement during transition while maintaining a smooth overall feel.

This gives the iM10 a noticeably more playable character than many traditional HZRDUS profiles.

Mid Launch / Mid Spin Performance Profile

Rather than targeting extremely low launch and spin, the iM10 MID is designed to produce a more neutral trajectory.

This makes it particularly versatile for golfers who want performance-shaft stability without dramatically reducing their launch window.

Lightweight 57g Construction

The 50 6.0 weighs approximately 57g, providing additional speed potential while retaining enough substance to maintain clubhead awareness and control.

Non-Counterbalanced Design

The iM10 MID uses a conventional rather than counterbalanced balance profile, making it straightforward to integrate into standard driver builds without the swing-weight changes associated with strongly counterbalanced shafts.

Player Profile

This shaft is ideally suited to golfers who:

• Prefer a Stiff flex driver shaft
• Have moderate to faster swing speeds
• Want a lightweight 50g-class performance shaft
• Prefer mid launch rather than an extremely low trajectory
• Want controlled spin without sacrificing carry
• Prefer a smoother-loading HZRDUS profile
• Find HZRDUS Black-style profiles too demanding
• Want increased speed without moving into an overly active shaft
• Prefer a stable midsection with responsive overall feel
• Want a versatile shaft capable of performing across a wide range of driver setups

The 6.0 Stiff is particularly appealing to golfers who want genuine Stiff-flex stability in a lighter configuration.

Swing speed alone should not determine shaft selection. Tempo, transition, release pattern, driver head weight and finished playing length should also be considered when choosing the ideal shaft.

Why Choose the Project X HZRDUS Smoke iM10 50 6.0

The HZRDUS Smoke iM10 50 6.0 is designed for golfers who like the idea of HZRDUS stability but don't necessarily want the aggressive feel or extremely low trajectory of the Black profiles.

That makes the iM10 particularly versatile.

Its lightweight 57g construction helps promote speed, while the stable midsection and advanced iM10 carbon fibre prevent the shaft from feeling loose or uncontrolled.

The mid-launch, mid-spin characteristics also provide a much broader performance window than more specialised low-launch shafts, making it an excellent option for golfers looking for a dependable all-round driver setup.

For players moving into a lighter shaft, the iM10 50 provides a particularly attractive proposition: less weight and more speed potential without abandoning stability and control.

With this shaft, you can expect:

• Balanced mid-launch driver flight
• Controlled mid-spin performance
• Increased speed potential from the lightweight 57g profile
• Smooth and progressive loading
• Stable feel through transition and impact
• Consistent energy transfer
• Predictable launch and dispersion
• A more playable alternative to aggressive HZRDUS Black profiles

This is a premium lightweight performance graphite driver shaft for golfers who want to combine speed, smooth feel, and dependable stability — delivering the distinctive control of the HZRDUS family in a versatile, easy-to-play 50g Stiff configuration.
