What should I look for in a driver shaft?
Your clubhead speed is a factor in what flex is right for you, but as Briand explains, ball flight and performance are king. Slow swing speeds will generally require softer-flex shafts, while high swing speeds need stiffer shafts; due to variations in swing patterns, however, swing speed is only one portion of finding the right shaft.
What makes a golf shaft right for You?
– What golf shaft flex is right for me? Put simply, the flex determines a golf club shaft’s ability to bend during a swing, affecting the distance and direction. Therefore, getting the right flex in your golf clubs is important. Which flex rating you use will depend on the type of swing you have.
What should the bend point of a shaft be?
According to Briand, a high bend point will lower ball flight and a low bend point will raise ball flight. So, if you tend to have a ball flight that’s too high, look for shafts that have a high kick point, and vice versa. It’s important to note that variations in length and shaft tipping will impact the designed bend point of a shaft.
Who are the benefits of a stiff shaft?
Who benefits from a stiff shaft? A good tip for working out what flex you need is the 150-yard test. If you can hit an 8- or 9-iron 150 yards, comfortably, then a stiff shaft is for you. This means that you will have a driver swing speed of around 100 mph and you will see the benefits of a stiff shaft.
What’s the best way to choose a golf shaft?
The heavier the shaft, the shorter the overall length of the club and the stiffer the shaft is (within the players flex range), the greater potential for control (tighter shot dispersion). The ultimate goal in shaft fitting is to find the best combination of both Distance and Control.
What do you call the shaft of a golf club?
When it comes to performance the golf shaft has been referred to as the transmission of the golf club. The flex, length, and weight can all effect how you are hitting a golf ball.
Can a shaft be used as a determinator?
However, experience and common sense should tell us that this is not the case. In reality, all of the data comparison of shafts serves the club fitter and the player as more of an eliminator than a determinator. Knowing this, we can eliminate many options going through the best practices that are involved in modern day shaft fitting.
