Choosing Shafts
There are three choices
to make when choosing your shafts:
Material,
Length and Flex.
Material
Graphite
is lighter than steel. You may be able to generate more swing speed
(thus distance). Graphite
absorbs more shock.
Steel
seems more consistent and it
costs less.
Set Fit uses shafts from the
top manufacturers (Aldila and True Temper). We cut them for the
swing of an average golfer.
Length
Check your fingertip to floor
measurement (in street or golf shoes). Most men will measure between 27 and
29 inches.
Most women, between 25 and 27 inches. We trim the shafts to the best
length for each customer.
Flex
Distance is
determined by clubhead/swing speed.
Until you take lessons and practice... your swing speed will
not change very much.
In terms of the golf
shots, stiffer shafts hit 'straighter'...
more flexible shafts hit 'longer.'
The best advise is to play
the most flexible shaft you can control.
(Don't exaggerate
your '150 club' in the questions above.)
