TESTED: AutoFlex Shafts - Should You Be Playing One?

TESTED: AutoFlex Shafts – Should You Be Playing One?



AutoFlex shafts break the rules in that they challenge the usual golf-shaft orthodoxy that faster or stronger players need something heavy and stiff. Autoflex are all about timing and if that works for you there are yards to be gained.

They’re unusually light, soft-feeling and “active”, but are designed to return the clubhead with surprising stability at impact, potentially giving more speed, easier launch and less effort when properly fitted.

The shocking pink coloured Autoflex Original became famous partly because players like Jimmy Walker put one in play and Adam Scott tested them, though they’re still more of a specialist fitting curiosity than a mainstream tour shaft.

They’re probably most worth testing for golfers with a smooth tempo who feel they work too hard with conventional shafts, want more driver speed, or like a lively shaft feel. They’re not for everyone but when they work for a player, boy do they work!!
