Shaft Weight
1 articleShaft weight is the mass of a golf shaft, typically expressed in grams and considered when assembling or fitting a club. It influences the overall weight and can affect swing feel, but it is not the same as swing weight or shaft stiffness. Comparing advertised weights requires attention to model, flex, raw versus cut dimensions and installed club configuration. Any comparison involving golf shaft mass in grams must identify the actual product, context and source rather than a neighboring model.
