an anybody help me with something, my preferred shaft in my irons in a dynamic gold s300, I just can't afford to get fitted for a brand new driver whats the drive equivalent of the s300 in a driver shaft? Don't know if it works that way but the shaft I have in my driver the now seems far too light and hardly feels like a stiff, dont know if this makes sense but any help appreciated

I'm only 42 but my backs wrecked and I don't swing super hard. Probably more like an old mans swing lol so I'm wondering if maybe I should put a senior flex shafts in my driver, 3 wood, 5 wood and maybe even hybrid? We don't have a golf shop in town anymore so I can't get launch data and all that and kinda have to buy things to try them and I'm really not sure what to go with?? Any help appreciated :)

Problem with shafts, too many variables and no standard.

Ive got a beginners shaft lesson. Pick a shaft that you like the colour of and go for it. The rest of it is BS. Shafts are probably the biggest con in the golf industry. Spend your hundreds on lessons and you’ll get far greater improvements than any shaft. Absolutely shocking that anyone still considers and think that shafts make a significant difference to the balls striking of an individual.

How can a club pro tell you what feels best for you

big issue is fitter actually fitting your sizes, speed in the first place. should be less about raping your wallet. the only #'s i want an need are distance to/from center line and distance ttl. flight path is good to see. seriously unless you have alot of spare cash average ppl can't afford to get fitted properly.
