So I wanted to get your feedback about reg vs stiff shafts. What would you say about the true difference between two shafts, one stiff and one regular, with the same or nearly the same weight. Is this more of a mental difference? We could compare the True Temper Elevate 95 shafts....
There are several degrees of stiffness in golf shafts and one of them will provide you with the optimum performance. Shafts are classified according to their flexibility as ladies, regular, stiff and extra stiff, as well as a senior flex for older golfers. You may find as you get older tha...
Golfers with ultra-slow swing speeds are best suited for what is termed a flexible, or "L" shaft, which can help them reach the upper limits of their distance capabilities. LPGA Tour players who hit their drives 275 yards usually use regular or stiff shafts, while older men with very slow...
PXG offers golf club shafts across the rating spectrum: Extra Stiff, Stiff, Regular, Senior, and Ladies, denoted by the letters X, S, R, A, and L (“A” is used for Senior because this flex was originally called “amateur”). At PXG we build your club to enhance your unique swing,...
Idk if a stiff flex or regular flex shaft will suit me better. Thanks for the help! Expand Is it impossible for you to go for a fitting? Even the thought of a cut down shaft minus a fitting is a risk - If you can't go for a fitting is there a place that you can go ...
Shafts are important in all golf clubs, but especially drivers. Using lighter, less stiff shafts will produce a higher, right-to-left biased ball flight, while heavier, stiff shafts will launch the ball lower with a higher tendency to shape the ball to the right. ...
Equipment should "fit" the golfer as to length, weight, and "feel". There is also something to be said about proper lie angle (angle of the hosel or shaft of a clubhead in relation to the sole of the clubhead), shaft flexibility (stiff, regular, light), and material used in the ...

Many higher swing-speed players struggle to keep the ball down, and it balloons a bit in the air; the SM9 helps to keep the flight down. Try to match this with the shafts you have in your irons. A stiff, heavy shaft, like the Dynamic Gold S400 shafts, is a good place to start....
Do senior shafts hit farther? The faster the club head speed and the better the contact a golfer makes, the further the ball will go. For a senior golfer playing with a heavy or stiff golf shaft, the ball will likely not travel very far. Switching to a senior shaft can increase distanc...
