Your clubhead speed is a significant determinator of the shaft flex you play as it affects your ability to square the face at impact, giving you the best combination of distance and accuracy.
If your shaft is too stiff for your swing speed, the driver face tends to stay open at impact and you’re more likely to launch the ball on a lower, slightly faded trajectory; a real distance-sapping combination.
A shaft that’s too light and whippy can cause you to generate excessive spin that drags your shot off line and into a ballooning trajectory that also saps distance.
