Performance enhanced golf club shafts
A plurality of two or more golf club shafts designed to optimize the performance of a specific shaft with respect to a specific golf swing is disclosed herein. More specifically, the present invention discloses a plurality of two or more golf club shafts wherein a dramatic difference in torque can be achieved by two golf club shafts within the same weight classification regardless of the flex of the shaft. A plurality of golf club shafts in accordance with the present invention may generally a difference in weight-to-torque ratio of greater than about 1.5 and a difference in butt-frequency-to-torque ratio of greater than about 8.0 between any two golf club shafts within the plurality of golf club shafts.
1. A plurality of two or more shafts for a golf club comprising:
a first shaft having a substantially tubular shape and having a first shaft weight, a first shaft flex, a first shaft torque, a first tip frequency, and a first butt frequency; and
a second shaft having a substantially tubular shape and having a second shaft weight, a second shaft flex, a second shaft torque, a second tip frequency, and a second butt frequency,
wherein a weight of said first shaft and a weight of said second shaft are less than 2 grams apart;
wherein a difference in weight-to-torque ratio between said first shaft and said second shaft is greater than 2.0;
wherein said weight-to-torque ratio is determined by dividing said shaft weight by said shaft torque, and
wherein said first butt frequency and said second butt frequency are both between about 240 cpm and about 280 cpm.
2. The plurality of two or more shafts for a golf club of claim 1 , wherein said first tip frequency and said second tip frequency are both between about 750 cpm and about 930 cpm.
3. The plurality of two or more shafts for a golf club of claim 2 , wherein said first shaft and said second shaft has substantially identical graphics.
