Anyone hit the Kai’li Red Shafts?

I have the opportunity to get a Stealth 2 with a Kai’li red 60 stuff in it for the amazingly low price of $280 before tax, but I can’t seem to find many reviews on it.
My driver swing speed is in the 105ish range. I have a smooth transition and swing which sometimes sacrifices distance.
My current set up is an Epic Max LS with a HZRDUS green 60 and I struggle with distance so hoping to find something to help launch the ball higher and farther.
Anyone have any feedback on the Kai’li Red? I am hoping the more active tip will help get some additional launch and speed.

Lot of swing speed. Try a heavier shaft. Recommend going get fitted for a shaft only. My buddy was hitting these sky 260-70 yd drives, and dialing in the shaft has his ball flight climbing to that height, then climbing back down, versus flying to it immediately. He's hitting it 270-290 now, and the control has tightened a ton.
It's like playing with a different golfer ....same swing, club, ball, the shaft the only change.

Looks to be an active tip and mid section for mid launch/mid spin. Probably work well for someone with smoother transition. Going to feel a good bit different from your HAZ green. I wouldn’t worry about weight too much unless you’re a high ball hitter. How sure are you of your swing speed?
Side note, If you’re going to try and self fit, try to find the bend profile you like and go from there. I like a soft handle, firm mid, a tip stiff driver shafts. This will help you know that at least the feel will be something you enjoy even if results aren’t ideal. Nothing worse than hitting all over the place and hating the feel.

Mildly. The same local fitter who put me into my current driver said I was in that 100-105 range. Also the reason I am doing a self fit because I had pretty poor experience.
My HZRDUS green shaft feels like a bit like a board so I am hoping to have the Kai’Li load a little better.
Went ahead and pulled the trigger so I guess we will see how it goes.

I've been playing a tour ad forever. Well this weekend I demoed the Callaway paradigm AI smoke driver with the Mitsubishi Tensi 65 gram shaft and I'm telling you I've never hit the ball so straight in my life. Like my buddies where all saying who the hell is this guy. I even had a slight draw to the ball on some holes. It was amazing. So needless to say I'm on the hunt for that exact driver but I'm not paying 500 for it.

It’s $600, FYI. You may be able to find a used one soon though.

I’ve never gotten along with PX HZ shafts.
Try to dial in the bend profile you like. You may not need a high dollar shaft to get results. I’m rocking a Ping 425 LST with stock Aldila shaft and I out drive custom/fitted set ups regularly. The shaft fits my timing and works well. I tinkered a good bit, but once I figured out the profile, it was all about pairing it with the ideal head.
Find a monitor and try to get 22-2400rpm @ 13* launch angle for your swing speed and you should have your ideal famer
