I picked up a catalog from Edwin Watts yesterday and noticed that all the irons with graphite shafts cost $100.00 to $150.00 more than the steel shafts. Why is this and why don't we see graphite shafts on the tour?

Golf is not a game, it's a way of life!

i'm guessing it costs more because graphite simply costs more than steel.

i dont really know why there arent graphite shafts on tour but.. i guess weight would have a big part in the answer. when i made the switch from graphite to steel shafts i found that my irons became much more accurate also.
