Hey all,

So right now i have a a standard regular flex graphite shaft on my Cobra Driver. I think i want to buy a new shaft but i dont really understand the diffrence between all the companies. Is there something I should be looking for inparticular?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Hey all,

There really is no industry "standard" for shaft flex. I would recommend you consult a club fitter and get a shaft that mated with the head will be best fitted to your swing.

I agree 100% with indacup. Besides the 'flex' itself, you also need to be aware of kick points, torque and weight. I played the game for a while looking for the right shaft and finally found I play better with stiff flex, low kick point and light weight (55 grams). There are just too many variables to be looking at flex only, and even that is not standard across the industry.

    • Day 3 - mirror swings/drills after my workout. Two seemingly good feels for me: feel like as the club reaches the top the weight of it/momentum of it pointing left initiates my "fall" into the lead side. Helps initiate the re-centering and some of the pressure shift. The second feel is like: as soon as the re-centering is over, begin to lighten the trail foot by feeling like my right knee in the beginning of the downswing essentially replaces where my left knee was at the top. This helps halt my sometimes ludicrous slide and greatly helps me get open.
    • Day 48 (17 Jun 25) - Into the net work today with the 5i - focus remains on the setup and proper weight shift.  Was not a perfect session as several were very heavy along with a couple of thin boys.  Finished up the day with a few pitches with the 52 (last set of 5 hitting to about 40 yds had 4 of the 5 in a 5’ circle (now if I could just do that on the course) - the errant one was a total mishit).  
    • Day 260 - 2025-06-17 Played seven holes before it started thundering and then raining. Some good. Simpler.
    • Oh so that's how it's going to be. .... And to think I was going let you get away with wearing a white belt this weekend.
