Club designers have made it easier for you to launch the ball high and long by combining lightweight materials in the face and back with heavier ones in the sole. But there’s another weight that also matters to ball flight.

Iron shaft weight affects the total weight of the club, which in turn affects your swing tempo, ball striking consistency, and therefore your launch.   

Shaft weights vary from 65 to 130 grams. Do you know which is best for you?
