A stiff flex is the flex of the shaft usually for swing speeds between 90 and 105 mph.
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.
Yes because depending on your swing speed the shaft can be too flexed at impact which causes the face and shaft of ur driver to be open. A faster swing speed needs an x stiff shaft
Means the stiffness of the shaft. It is for slower swing speeds. However I tend to reverse that thinking. Rather than matching a shaft flex to benefit a swing speed I match shafts to prevent damage to a swing. Anyone can swing a stiff flex and suffer no real ill effects. The worst that can happen is that you are accurate and maybe a bit shorter (not much) However not everyone can use a whippy shaft flex. The balls will be sprayed all over the place. I bought a Driver on ebay that had an intermediate flex. I sprayed balls to the right and even got a slice back that I had not seen in years. After a few trips on the course it was enough of the intermediate flex. I removed it today and replaced it with a regular flex.
1. Not sure2. From Ebay buying guidehttp://pages.ebay.com/buy/guides/golf-clubs-buying-guide/Set flex vs. uniflexConsider shaft flex (the amount of bend in a shaft) when you shop. Beginners will want more flex than experienced golfersA: Geared toward seniors.Regular: Designed for average players with a 75 to 90mph swing speed.Stiff/ Firm/ Extra stiff: Designed for people with a swing speed between 90 to 110mph.Uniflex: Varying flex to fit most swing speeds.
Stiff shafts are for people with 65mph+ swings
Callaway make this shaft flex, it is designed in between a regular flex and stiff flex shaft.
It means the shaft is flexed 4.26 inches from its original created spot. A person who gets this kind of shaft is someone who has a flatter golf swing.
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.
A regular shaft has regular flex.
that is the perfect swing speed for the standard stiff shafted club. try the dynamic gold s300 shaft or the project x 5.5 or 6. the kbs tour stiff is good as well.
Golfers with iron swings between 80-90 miles per hour are well suited to play a regular flex shaft
