I agree, but I'd also add that if you have sufficient parallel tip section, you can also do some tip trimming to get all three to match on the same flex line.  If you look at a shaft as being in three sections....a parallel tip section, a tapered center section, and a parallel butt section, the objective is to take a section from that overall length that has the flex that you want to achieve.  For a given shaft length, taking less tip trim (which implies more butt trim) means a softer shaft, while taking more tip trim (which implies less butt trim) results in a stiffer shaft.

Good idea...I purchased 3 Graffaloy Powerlite wood shafts on Ebay, 1 S, 1 R, and 1 A. I built the S shaft into a 1-wood and I want to match the A&R shafts on a 3&5 set, but the charts say I can only butt trim, is there any way to match these shafts, preferably as R flex?


The best way to do it would be to use the A on the 1, the R on the 3, and the S on the 5.
