I recently bought a new Titleist 980F 19 deg. fairway wood - with no label indicating the shaft type. The proshop guessed it was a true temper steel R300 (regular flex) i.e. based on the kick point (distance from the lowest step on the shaft to the club head). Unfortunately, I'm not convinced. Although it feels like a regular, it has a low kick point of only 9 inches i.e. from the lowest step to the bottom of the club. My observation has been that most stiffer shafted clubs tend to have a low kick point and therefore, this club may not have a regular flex shaft.
How can I tell for certain?
Thanks very much in advance for any help.
