Shaft Flex. Differnece In Cpm

If you think all shafts are the same when it comes to flex, think again. Check this video out.

I know a guy who had an Aldila NV in his TM R7. Stock shaft from the factory. It was labeled Stiff. For awhile he hit that shaft ok, he was taking nice smooth swings. He is not long off the tee, averges 265 but always in the fairway and is a Two Time Club Champion at my home course. He told me he started swinging a bit harder in the fall and suddenly he was all over the place with that driver. His Father tested the shaft and it had the CPM's of a A FLEX or Senior Flex shaft. Way below what a Stiff should have been. Goes to show you how far off some shafts can really be. You are not 100% sure if you have a R,S or A flex unless you have it checked.
