Shafts

| |
|
All golf professionals know that the shaft
is the heart of the golf club. Without the proper shaft the golf club is
performing well under it's potential. As an example if a senior player is
playing with a stiff shaft or a shaft that is too heavy distance will be
greatly reduced making it far more difficult to score. We always try out
best to fit our customers with the right shaft for their swing.
When selecting a shaft the main factor to take into account is the flex. The
flex refers to how much the shaft bends during the golf swing. Flex is mainly
determined by club head speed. The stronger the player and the harder or faster
the swing the stiffer the shaft needs to be.
Shaft
flex is extremely important. Obviously during the golf swing the shaft bends.
The club head being heavier will lag behind. The softer the flex the greater
the shaft bends and the farther the club head will lag behind. In some instances
this is needed. The softer shaft aides in getting the ball airborne. However if
a player's swing is too fast the shaft flex is greater the club head lags and
the shot will face or slice. As a general rule a stiffer shaft decreases
distance but the trade-off is better accuracy.
If
you do not know your club head speed you can reference the scale
using approximate distances.
