what driver shafts are in the fitting matrix
If you’ve ever wondered “what shafts do you actually have to test?” this will give you a proper look behind the scenes.
At Plymouth Golf Coaching, the driver fitting matrix isn’t just a handful of stock options. It’s a fully built-out system with 120+ shafts, designed to cover every type of golfer, swing speed, and delivery pattern.
This means when you come in for a fitting, we’re not guessing. We’re matching the shaft to your swing using real data.
Why do I Carry So Many Shafts
The biggest misconception in golf fitting is that one shaft fits a “type” of golfer.
In reality, the right shaft depends on:
Clubhead speed
Transition and tempo
Release pattern
Strike location
Desired ball flight
Two golfers with the same swing speed can need completely different shafts.
That’s why we’ve built a matrix that covers:
Lightweight speed-enhancing options
Mid-weight, versatile profiles
Low spin, tour-level shafts
Lightweight & High Launch Shafts
These are designed to help golfers create speed more easily and launch the ball higher with less effort.
You’ll find options such as:
UST Helium (40g – Ladies)
XXIO MP1400 (36g / 39g)
Ping Alta Quick (35g / 45g)
Aldila Ascent (40g range)
Fujikura Atmos Red (Ladies)
Miyazaki Red series (40g options)
These are ideal for:
Seniors
Juniors
Golfers with smoother tempos
Players struggling to get the ball airborne
Mid Launch & Versatile Shafts
This is where most golfers will find their best fit.
These shafts offer a balance of feel, launch, spin, and stability, and they make up a large part of the matrix.
