Swing Speed and Shafts
What swing speed constitutes buying a stiff shaft? I'm swinging between 94-98 and i have a stiff shaft but sometimes i feel like I'm swinging a metal pipe. What is the general rule, swing speed wise, for regular & stiff flex shafts? Thanks

Depends on the shaft. I would check the specs & see what the manufacturer recommends.

Re: Swing Speed and Shafts
The only way to get an accurate response for you is to get fitted.

I got fitted for all the clubs in my bag and I ended up with:

Stiff shafts on my driver and 2H
Regular shafts on my irons
Wedge flex on my wedges

So you can see that a single flex is not necessarily the answer. I wasn't for me.
