Forget Flex — Here's What 100 PGA Tour Pros Shafts Actually Weigh


Hi Reader,

What Shafts / Balls / Grips Do Pros Use?

Most golfers ask the wrong question about shafts. They want to know what flex shaft pros use when there's a bigger lesson to pay attention to.

I told my daughter to change her grip the moment she picked up a club. Turns out three top-100 PGA Tour pros are still using the exact grip I told her to abandon.

Did you also know that Tour-only balls exist that you can't walk into a shop and buy?

If you've ever wondered whether you should copy Tour players check out Golfing Focus' continued in-depth analysis of the bags of the top 100 players on the PGA Tour.

It might just change how you approach your next round or equipment choice!

Fully Focused On YOUR Golf Hi Reader, ⛳ Does this hole really need a draw? Water left. Start it right and draw it back. Sounds sensible. But what if your fade is much more reliable? Adam Young’s latest example illustrates why the shape alone can’t make that decision for you. He places different shot patterns over the same hole, then adjusts their aim. The tighter fade produces a better projected score than the wider draw, even though some fades miss the intended shape. Tighten the draw...

Fully Focused On YOUR Golf Hi Reader, ⛳ Never up, never in. But then what? Your 20-foot putt stops a foot short. Frustrating? Of course. But would you rather be six feet past? “Never up, never in” is 100% 'technically' true. It’s just not a good way judge the putt. Lou Stagner’s latest analysis looked at five years of PGA Tour data. From 20 to 24 feet, 26% of putts finished short. From 30 to 34 feet, it was 40%. From 45 to 49 feet, it was 49%. That’s almost half from longer range, even among...

Last week we linked our club-replacement guide. And right here’s a timely example of an older club still earning its place even at a time when...
