2. Shaft (golf) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaft_(golf)

   These shafts offer the same flex throughout most of the shaft, in order to attain the "whip" required to propel the ball properly, but also include a stiffer tip, which cuts back drastically on the lateral torque acting on the head. Lastly, shafts are quantified by their "kick point", which is the point on the shaft where the flex is the greatest.

   Flexible shaft tool. A flexible shaft, often referred to as a flex shaft, is a device for transmitting rotary motion between two objects which are not fixed relative to one another. It consists of a rotating wire rope or coil which is flexible but has some torsional stiffness. It may or may not have a covering, which also bends but does not rotate.

7. Long drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_drive

   In 2005, a 50 in (127.0 cm) limitation was introduced (measured vertically). Long drive shafts differ from standard shafts. The main difference is greater stiffness, as a flexible shaft will lag in an inconsistent manner, causing a loss of control. These shafts are almost always made of graphite, which is lighter than steel.
