The best way to improve your golf game is to replace all the old, metal shafts of your clubs with new, top-of-the-line shafts. The best golf club shafts are made of graphite, steel or other composite material. They are very lightweight, but so durable that you can bet they won’t break for a long time. Certain shafts are made for certain variations of the golf game, so you must know whether you want a shaft that will maximize your distance, accuracy or shot shape.
