ABSTRACT:
A matched and correlated set of golf club irons is produced by preparing a series of shafts which vary substantially uniformly in flexibility and securing the most flexible shaft to the lowest numbered head in the set, securing the next less flexible shaft to the next higher numbered head, and repeating the process until all the shafts and heads are joined. The shafts are prepared by providing a first group of basic stock shafts of substantially identical stiffness characteristics and cutting off the tip ends in uniformly increasing increments to vary the flexibility. The first group of shafts is connected to heads from the lowest number to one of the middle distance irons. A second group of basic stock shafts having identical stiffness characteristics greater than the first group is similarly prepared and provided for the higher numbered heads. Each successive head is heavier than the preceding head by an increment sufficient to produce a gradual increase in swing weight from the lowest to the highest numbered iron in the set.
