Gauranteed Consistency

Every Shaft is +/- one CPM

Since 1998 SK FIBER Golf has been committed to developing and distributing performance golf club shafts that enable golfers of all skill levels to improve their game.

The golf shaft is an important part of any golf club. Selecting the right shaft can give more distance and straighter golf shots. If you have the wrong shafts in your clubs, no matter how hard you work, your golf game will still suffer. 

How to Select The Right Shaft
 
To select the correct golf shaft ask yourself what is your primary objective…

Do you want to hit the ball straighter, longer or be more consistent? 

The correct shaft will not only satisfy the primary objective but will help achieve improvement in the other areas as well. Here are four general questions to consider and elementary solutions to help you play better golf.

What can I do to hit the ball further?
• Use a lighter weight shaft.
• Reduce the stiffness of the shaft.
• Check your lofts and lies on your clubs.

 What can I do to hit the ball straighter?
• Use a heavier shaft.
• Use a stiffer shaft.
• Check your lofts and lies on your clubs.
• Check the shaft alignment.

What can I do to hit the ball higher?
• Increase the loft of the club. (major effect)
• Use a lower kick-point shaft. (minor effect)

What can I do to hit the ball lower?
• Decrease the loft of the club. (major effect)
• Use a higher kick-point point shaft. (minor effect)
 
But how can you tell what you need? Here are some general guidelines:

Determine the average distance you hit your driver or iron. This chart is a good, but very general, indicator of the amount of club head speed you generate.

• If you have a very smooth swing, you might benefit from a softer flex even if you swing very fast.

 A swing that gets quick or jerky at the top - when transitioning into the downswing - will probably need a stiffer shaft.

Don't Guess - Get Custom Fitted!

In recent years, custom fitting has been brought to the forefront of the golfing public's mind. What once was reserved for Tour players and the best amateurs is now available to any golfer who's willing to spend the time and money to get properly fitted clubs. With today’s technology and vast amount of products available, an experienced club fitter can truly solve the shaft mystery. Custom fitting can be done with woods, irons, wedges and even putters. A clubmaker will work with you to decide the custom fit shaft flex, lie angles, face angles, lofts, lengths, swing weights, grip size and other options.

For the avid golfer, custom fitting is the passport to better golf.

Thanks for choosing SK Fiber golf club shafts.
