selection of shaft and flex

Looking to pick up some irons to practice, narrow down my choices of club model, but having some difficulty determining what type of shaft and flex that would best suit myself. Any advice as to which type of flex suits beginners more, stiff or regular in steel shafts.

depends on how fast you swing actually....

i started off with stiff steel when i first started as my coach advise me not to take graphite.

Think your pro should be able to advise you base on how you swing

DGMan is always happy to help.

You can also pop by to chat with other golfers and pay homage to the Scotty Cameron shrine Once you're there, you'll understand what I mean

do i need to make an appointment?

yes you do! and i know how you feel mate.. i'd love to be able to make a static decision about which shaft and flex to go for but it's all about trying it out first hand. i always thought i had a slow swing speed so naturally i needed graphite. but turns out i tried a friend's mizzy club with NSpro S flex shafts and it suited me better and i felt i was more in control of my ball. so on choice! go and try until you're sure! haha

Better to make appointment.

DGMan, i will drop by your place next week, give u a call

cheers and see you guys soon...

you know what i will tell begineers liao hor.....no worries, at least you will find out whether steel or graphite will suit you better.

DGman

wah DGman when i go must mentally prepare myself already. hahaha but can at least check my lie and length right?

generally what swing speed and above should be using steel shafts?

There should be a steel shaft to cater to all kinds of swing speeds.

I have seen kids and ladies using steel-shafted irons as well..

yeah steel now getting superlite..
