      OP, yes, shafts make a big difference, although I will concede your swing needs to reach a certain level/speed before you need to concern yourself with it.

        I wasn't really a believer in the past but with my previous set of irons, the ball flight seemed lowered so when I traded up I got a set with 'high launch' shafts, the ball seems to go higher now. Also when I got fitted by mizuno and that shaft optimizer, the data confirmed that I hit the ball lower and would benefit from a high launch shaft.

        Has my game improved??? Not really but then maybe some of us are hopeless lol

                    I have a stiff shaft on my 3 and 5 wood and a regular shaft on my driver and 4 hybrid on my driver.

                    Why? No idea!

                    But I will buy a new set next year! It has been approved by my accounting department!

                      Some shafts are are nine inches, some are six inches. The really big stiff ones are often black. I've heard that there are some that are 12 inches!

                      My shaft is considerably smaller.

                        i've been telling my friends this, if you can't feel the difference in shafts, you're not really hitting the ball

                          some say that it's not a matter of the length of the shaft - even a pro can use a smaller one and whack it and still get great results

                          You don't want them to stiff or they might break if abused

                            I disagree. I actually didn't feel the difference when I tried a stock regular and a high quality stiff shaft. I will concede that after playing a stiff shaft for a while, I could tell the difference between a smoother swinging stiff shaft and a boardy one.

                            JMO but any half decent shaft can improve your game, although only slightly.
