Finding the missing link that enhances your ball-striking requires a shaft composition as unique as your swing!
Read on to uncover all you need to know about shafts or book a fitting and see first-hand the difference the correct shaft makes to your game.
Speaking of weight, a light shaft may give you a few extra miles per hour clubhead speed but you may be compromising your swing mechanics. Lose a lot of shots out right? Your shaft may well be too light, causing an early release of your wrists.
Shaft material makes a material difference to performance too. There are many benefits of playing graphite, most notably higher launch, so if you’re struggling to hold greens, this may be a solution. If you’re after more workability, however, and have the clubhead speed for it, steel shafts may still be the way forward for your game.
Shaft length also influences performance. The ideal length isn’t just determined by your physical structure but your performance goals. Lengthening your shaft may help launch your ball higher and vice-versa. If you’re fighting a slice, the slight draw bias promoted by a shorter shaft may aid your shot shape as the face will be slightly more closed at impact.
A shaft’s torque influences performance and feel. Measured in degrees, it’s the shaft’s resistance to twisting. The lower the torque, the less the shaft twists, and vice-versa. If you have a stubborn hook, a low-torque shaft will make it easier to square the face at impact, while a slice could be offset by a high-torque shaft.
