Golf Club Shafts: So Important to Winning
High Power Golf
Golfers Are Scrambling To Get Their Hands On These High Power Secrets!
Author: Peter Lenkefi Article source: http://choosetoprosper.com/. Used with author's permission.
This article dwells into the importance of the golf
club shaft in the game, and lists the most important
considerations.
Steel or Graphite Golf Club Shaft?
The two most important parts of the golf club which
can spell the difference between winning and losing
are the head and the shaft. The shaft of the golf club
connects the grip to the head. Most modern golf club
shafts are made of either steel or graphite.
Most manufacturers rate their shafts in one of six
degrees of stiffness. From least to most stiff these
are: Ladies (L); Seniors (A); Regular (R); Firm (F);
Extra Firm (X); and Stiff (S).
Most golfers prefer a shaft that is stiffer, and
manufacturers can only oblige. If you make the shaft
super stiff, however, you can begin to affect distance
and strength negatively.
Then there?s the difference between steel and graphite
golf shafts. Generally, if you have back problems or
not very confident with the strength of your swing or
drive, you should stick with the graphite variety.
Graphite golf club shafts reduce the weight of your
club (you can really feel the difference if you?ve
used steel shafts before). They weigh between 50-85
grams, while their steel counterparts generally start
at 120 grams. Graphite shafts reduce the shock at
impact. They also allow for longer clubs. But
remember, longer clubs are good for distance, not for
control.
Aldila graphite shafts are highly recommended. Their
durability is proven. If you?re the type who prefers
steel shafts, the most reliable brands are FM
Precision, True Temper and Apollo. They are proven
toughies in their class. For more more information about golf club shafts please visit http://www.golfschooltips.net
