What is the best golf shaft for irons?

The best golf shaft for irons depends on your individual swing characteristics, such as swing speed, tempo, and release point. Generally, there are two types of iron shafts: steel and graphite.

Steel shafts are typically heavier and provide more control, making them a popular choice among better players. They also tend to have a lower launch angle and produce less spin, which can help players keep the ball flight low and maximize distance. However, steel shafts can be more demanding to swing due to their weight, which can be a disadvantage for players with slower swing speeds.

Graphite shafts, on the other hand, are designed to be lighter and more flexible than steel shafts. This makes them ideal for players who want to generate more clubhead speed and distance with their irons. Graphite shafts tend to have a higher launch angle and produce more spin, which can help players get the ball airborne and maximize carry distance.

It's important to get professionally fitted for a golf shaft to ensure that it's suited to your individual swing characteristics and ball flight preferences. Working with a professional club fitter can help you find the best golf shaft for your irons to maximize your performance on the course or reach out to us directly for advice or recommendations on different brands and options to consider.
