When it comes to fine-tuning golf clubs, tip trimming iron shafts can make a significant difference in performance. By adjusting the length from the tip end, golfers can achieve a stiffer shaft profile, impacting the swing and ball trajectory.
Typically, trimming one inch from the tip results in about a third of a flex increase, translating to roughly 5 CPM (cycles per minute).
Understanding the nuances of tip trimming is crucial for optimizing a player’s game. This process can reduce launch and spin, providing a more controlled ball flight.
Whether it’s for a putter, driver, hybrid, or wedge, each club may require different trimming techniques to maintain the desired flex and performance.
