Each shaft is tailored to offer precise control, enhanced feel, and greater performance for high-speed swings. Detailed specifications for the new shafts are as follows: 6.5-DOT: 300 cpm, 3.4 Torque, 76g, designed for swing speeds of 110-120 mph; 7-DOT: 320 cpm, 3.1 Torque, 79g, designed for swing speeds exceeding 120 mph

The golf swing follows a double pendulum model, where the arms and shoulders become the first pendulum and movements along the hands, grip, and shaft form the second. Both of these interlocking pendulum ...
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. In order to be stiff, a shaft is usually heavier and stronger than consumer clubs.
