A senior flex shaft is a very flexible lightweight Golf shaft which is ideal for senior golfers. They usually have a low kick point which is ideal to get the ball in the air with the slower swing speeds of a senior golfer.
There is actually very little difference between senior and ladies flex shafts. You will find that the senior flex shaft is slightly heavier. They are both aimed at golfers with slower swing speeds, to help them get the ball the air easier.
Hi....I have played Ping clubs for serveral years..and yes the Ping soft regular shaft is equivilant to the senior shaft or A flex of many shaft designations.
Callaway make this shaft flex, it is designed in between a regular flex and stiff flex shaft.
Something labeled senior flex will probably be more flexible than regular. There is no real standardization among shaft makers, but typically they are ordered (from most to least flexible) L - Ladies A - Senior R - Regular S - Stiff X - eXtra stiff The rule of thumb is that slower swingers do better with more flexible shafts, because if timed right the flex can add some power and height to the shot. The "A" designation between Ladies and Regular flex doesn't stand for anything in particular. They couldn't use "S" for the Senior flex because it was already being used as the designation for "Stiff" flex. The abbreviation for Senior, "Sr.", could also be confused with a "Regular/Stiff" flex. So in an attempt to avoid confusion (or possibly add a little), the letter "A" was decided upon as the designation for the Senior flex shaft.
A regular shaft has regular flex.
Believe it or not the most used shaft would probably be stiff and some of the younger ones would even use x-flex. There would be very few who would use senior flex shafts.
65 gram is lighter obviously than the 80 gram, therefore the lighter shaft helps generate more speed from the swing, which would maximise your distance from a given swing. The lighter shaft is also more flexible so a 65 g senior flex plays softer than an 80 g senior flex.
Seniors will do fine as long as the shaft is regular flex and not stiff flex. Low torque shafts are great as well. They really let you fell the club head.
i need to replace the flex shaft in my weedeater. how do i do it?
senior stick has a stiffer flex. senior flex is 75 - 115+. intermediate flex i think is like 77 down to 55. if your like 150+ and is like 5'5+ use a senior.
The different Letters on a golf shaft are the flex of the club. In order from stiff to soft: X - EXtra Stiff S - Stiff R - Regular A or M - Senior (Amateur or Mature) L - Ladies. The letters may be combined to show in-between ratings, such as SR (Stiff/Regular).
