QUESTION:
What is the correct shaft flex for my swing
ANSWER:
Shaft flex is based on swing speed. The correct flex is important for performance. A basic breakdown for swing speeds are:
1)X-Stiff flex is > 95 mph
2)Stiff flex is 85 to 95 mph
3)Regular flex is 70 to 85 mph
4)Senior flex is 60 to 70 mph
5)Ladies flex is 50 to 60 mph
A shaft that's too stiff:
1)Will have a tendency to make the ball fade or slice.
2)Will have too low of a trajectory.
3)Will create a lack of distance.
A shaft that's too flexible:
1)Will have a tendency to make the ball draw or hook.
2)Will have too high of a trajectory.
3)Might gain distance but won't have consistant accuracy.
So, to make sure you have the right flex in your shafts, visit the nearest authorized Pole-Kat dealer or PGA Professional.
