Changing shafts in my driver

[Chriso]

Looking at going to stiff shafts in my Ping 425 Max driver and 3 fairway. I’ve got 55Gr. Reg flex now in driver and 65Gr. In 3 fairway. Any suggestions on shaft weight and manufacturer appreciated. HI 13.3

Why do you think you need a stiffer shaft?   You need to keep in mind that shaft flex isn't standard and your regular could already be a stiff in a different shaft.   Shafts are a timing/feel device used to help you deliver the club correctly and generate specific launch conditions.   Do you have any launch monitor data with your current shafts and some other shafts for comparison?    Unfortunately which what you have provided there is no way to give you any realistic advice other than you need to try different shafts to see what gives you the results you are seeking.

sometimes cutting the shaft down a 1/2" to an inch makes the staff stiffer and you become more accurate. Stock shafts offered are typically too long for the amateur player. The amateur player benefits greatly from a 44" shaft opposed to a 45.5 seen in most stock offerings
