What is better graphite vs steel iron shafts for kids?
Young children should really use graphite shafts, they help them get the ball in the air easier and they are a lot lighter than the steel ones. Any clubs I have seen designed specifically for children have graphite shafts. When they get a bit older and stronger say 13-14 they may be able to move on to steel, because their swing speed will have increased and they are a lot stronger. Girls however tend to stay with graphite as they have slower swing speeds and the graphite shafts help get the ball in the air.
Whats the difference between a graphite and a steel shaft for golf clubs?
Graphite shafts transmit fewer vibrations up the shaft to the golfer's hands than do steel shafts. This might be good or bad, depending on your skill and your desire. You might want that added feedback that steel shafts offer - or you might be tired of your hands stinging so much on mis-hit shots. The biggest and by far most important difference between steel and graphite shafts is this: graphite shafts are lighter than steel shafts. So clubs that have graphite shafts will be lighter than otherwise identical clubs that have steel shafts. The difference in weight between graphite shafts and steel shafts will translate, for most golfers, into an additional 2-4 mph of swing speed with graphite. And that could mean an extra 6-12 yards of distance with a graphite shaft, compared to a steel shaft. Steel shafts are less expensive than graphite, so the same set of clubs will cost less with steel shafts than with graphite shafts. Steel shafts were once considered much more durable than graphite. That's not s
Who makes callaway graphite shafts?

Will graphite shaft let you hit the ball further than steal shaft?
Yes, graphite shafts are far superior to steel shafts in terms of distance.
What si a hockey stick made out of?
Nowadays they are mostly graphite composites (like the newer golf shafts). Very flexible but when they break, look out. The wooden hockey sticks were mostly maple
Which coupling is used for intersecting shafts?
flexible
Are grafite golf clubs more flexible?
Yes, graphite shafts are more flexible than steel ones and require a slower swing speed to get the ball airborne. They are aimed at all players in drivers, woods and hybrids, but only at seniors, women and juniors in irons.
Why are graphite golf shafts better for the senior player?
There are better because they are more flexible and have higher kick point which gets the ball in the air easier, which is more desirable for senior players who have slower swing speeds.
Do all women pro golfers use steel shaft in their irons?
The majority of them would, but quite a lot still use graphite shafts. Graphite shafts help launch the ball higher with their slower swing speeds.
How do you extend graphite club shafts?
There are extensions you can insert in the butt end of the shaft (after removing the grip) that can be trimmed to the desired length and re-install the grip. This must be done carefully, as some graphite shafts can crack easily.
How many PGA Tour players use irons with graphite shafts?
Yes, nearly all the players on the PGA tour use graphite shafted drivers and fairway wood and some hybrids, although they will normally use steel shafted irons. On the LPGA Tour and Champions Tour there would be a lot of graphite shafted drivers, fairway woods, hybrids and irons.
Will graphite shaft extenders fit steel shafts?
It depends on the butt size of the steel club and how wide the graphite shaft butt is. It is not really ideal to mix the composition of shafts in this way as it will drastically affect the swing weight. Yes it is true there are matrix shafts which have steel and graphite but these have been specifically designed for their purpose and work well. You would be best going and getting steel shaft extensions they are cheap enough.
