Hi All,
I have some general questions about how important shaft weight is on a set of irons. For context, I recently found out my irons have lighter shafts (80g) and I'm wondering what affect that may have on play. I'm newer to the game shooting in the high 90's but am a bigger guy with a fast swing speed that's probably a little too aggressive at times. All my clubs are stiff flex. Currently playing used Callaway Xr's.
Is shaft weight more for feel or does it affect performance? If so how and how would you tell what the right shaft weight is? How much can it hurt your game if your shafts are too light?
I know a fitting is probably the best answer to a lot of these questions but I may not have the budget for that foe awhile so hoping for some general answers.
Thanks!!
