I'm in the market for a new 3 wood and I'm really interested in the Cleveland Classic XL 3 Wood.  No matter where I look, it seems like this club is only available in a stiff flex.  I normally play with regular flex shafts and I don't know if I have ever used a stiff shaft before.

I have a chance to buy this club for a great price until Sunday night.  (May 31st).  But it's only available in a stiff flex.  I haven't had my swing speed checked, but I'm a high handicap golfer and I would bet that my swing speed is no better than average.  I'm not sure if this club was sold primarily in a stiff flex, or if all the regular shafts have been sold and the stiff shafts are all that is left now.  (This club was first sold in 2013.)

I don't honestly know much about flex other than what I have read, so I'm not sure if I should buy this club, or search for a different club altogether that can be found in a regular flex.

I could use some advice from people who understand the difference.

Looked around online and it appears they are just out of stock. No surprise because that is usually when the price plummets. Budget Golf still has the 14* 3 wood in regular still, but not the 15.5* version http://www.budgetgolf.com/Cleveland-Classic-XL-Fairway-Wood.html?sku=412349625859&CAWELAID;=520008760000076616&CAGPSPN;=pla&catargetid;=520008760000161414&cadevice;=c&gclid;=CPeu2IGA7MUCFUUSHwod-LkAVA
