How do you decide whether to purchase graphite or steel golf club shafts?
Here are the pros and cons of steel shafts vs graphite shafts:
STEEL
Pros: (i) consistent manufacturing of steel is easier to attain and there is less variation from manufacturer to manufacturer; (ii) more accurate because of a lower more penetrating ball flight; (iii) less torque and twisting.
Cons: (i) heavy; (ii) produces lower club head speed, and therefore less distance on shots; (iii) favors swing speeds above 95 MPH, thus eliminates many higher handicappers from playing steel.
GRAPHITE
Pros: (i) light weight; (ii) produces higher clubheadd speeds and longer distance on shots; (iii) more easily customized for players of all skill levels; (iv) matches up better with today's larger drivers, hybrids and fairway woods
Cons: (i) less accurate; (ii) higher ball flight that can be difficult to predict and control; (iii) confusing array of choices for the average golfer; (iv) no standardization of specs such as flex, kick-point, twisting and torque from manufacturer to manufacturer; thus one company's "firm flex" may another's "stiff flex" and so on.
In sum, if you want more distance, play graphite; if you want more accuracy and control, play steel.
