The fact that there is no industry standard for golf shaft stiffness leaves golfers with no guidance when buying a golf club. It is maddening. It is worse if you are a golf club fitter or custom club builder.
When I started golf club fitting in Dallas I knew realized I needed to understand the golf shaft to fit at a professional level. This video is a review of my 10 year journey to understand golf shaft measurement. I make no apology for it being 30 minutes long, it took that long to describe what I learned. If you have a passion for golf and are considering custom fit golf clubs, this will help you understand golf shaft stiffness and the various attempts that have been made to rate it. My review site, www.golfshaftreviews.info is based on what you see here. My knowledge of golf shafts is put into practice in my Dallas Fort Worth custom fitting business, Fit2Score.
