The top-selling steel shafts in golf, Dynamic Gold shafts feature a high-flex, tour weight design that provides skilled players with a low, penetrating ball flight for optimum control and accuracy. True Temper’s Project X steels shafts are another highly popular line of shafts which have earned worldwide acclaim. The Project X features a dedicated constant taper rate per inch for each shaft in the set. Longer taper rate results in more energy transfer to the ball and the ball gets up faster and flattens out for a penetrating trajectory. Dynamic Gold shafts are available in tapered and parallel irons and parallel woods, while Project X steel shafts are available in tapered and parallel irons.
