Getting fit and finding the right aftermarket shaft for your game can be a difficult process, but with the right information and understanding of your golf game, it’s easier than ever to find one that can help add yards and accuracy to your long game. Here are five to consider.

With one of the highest balance points (counterbalance weight) built into its design — thanks to a unique use of tungsten powder in the butt section — the Nemesys allows for extra driver head weight to create more stability without negatively changing swing weight. If you play a driver longer than 45 inches this could be a great option for you.

The Tour AD DI is still one of the benchmarks for smooth feel and extra stability thanks to a Nanoalloy material in the tip section of the shaft. This unique tech allows golfers to create greater clubhead speed and thus greater ball speeds and distance. It comes in four weight categories to help golfers find the perfect fit for their speed.

Accra’s TZ Six shafts combine a uniquely responsive and torsionally stable tip section that transitions into a firm butt section under the grip. This stiffness profile helps to generate more power and speed without sacrificing stability to offer a higher launch with controlled spin rates.

The Vanquish’s lightweight design promotes greater speed without sacrificing consistency. It utilizes technologies that include a new amorphous wire in the butt section to increase clubhead acceleration, a low resin content for a better feel and a proprietary 46 and 40 Ton prepregs for added strength and lower torque.

It’s hard to consider one of the most popular shafts on the PGA Tour underrated, but with the number of weight and flex options available, there is something for every level of golfer and swing speed.
