As if we didnt have enough to be concerned about already. Which is why Ben Hogan preferred that his shaft flex be "somewhere between a fence post and a telephone pole". Larry Nelson played Hogan clubs throughout his PGA TOUR career. The shafts were Apex 5s. Tipped. These guys didn't want anything influencing that ClubFACE through Impact except their Flat Left Wrist. Karsten Solheim at Ping was of the same mind. He offered one shaft flex . . . Stiff. Kinda reminds you of Henry Ford and his Model T: "You can have any color you want, as long as its black." __________________ Yoda Yoda View Public Profile Send a private message to Yoda Visit Yoda's homepage!
