bought some axis shafts. different to the last batch?

hey guys, i just bought some new 500 spine black axis shafts. i opened the package and they are different to the ones i've been getting lately. the ones i usually recieve are marked with 'focused energy' and 'third generation' n-fused carbon nano.

the dozen that just arrived are labelled differently. 'n-fused carbon hybtonite technology' and 'ST slim tech'

i couldn't care less about the label, i'm just wondering if there is any difference in how they behave between the 2 types/batches.
i suspect the ones i just got are older stock?

i just don't want to get these nicely tuned and then have to retune later if i got what i normally get for the next dozen.

thanks.

Easton routinely changes the badging on the axis shafts.  I have never noticed a difference in the performance.

I believe the Focused Energy shafts were produced for the big box stores, like Bass Pro,etc. There was a thread on this forum within this past year about a recall. Anyway, your newer shafts should be just fine.  http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=129087#000000

so they are the same shaft, just a different label?

thanks
