    • Abstract:
      "The ideal amount of shaft bend and where along the shaft it bends can differ from golfer to golfer. He believes there is an ideal shaft weight for each golfer that will produce more clubhead speed, and that a launch monitor will be clear about which shaft produces the best launch conditions.
