ABSTRACT:
A light weight golf club shaft and a method of making it out of metal tubing are described. The metal must have, after heat treatment, a yield strength equal to or greater than 220,000 lbs./in..sup.2 to avoid permanent shaft deflection in use. The metal must also have an ultimate strength equal to or greater than 240,000 lbs./in..sup.2 to avoid shaft breakage in use. The finished shaft must attain the impact and permanent set results set forth in the specification. To fabricate the shaft in a variety of lengths and flex patterns needed to accommodate a golfer's individual needs, a collection of manufacturing specifications incorporating relationships between the working material, the initial size of the work piece, and the final shaft product length, taper, weight, and flex are presented. A test is defined for measuring the final shaft product's flex pattern.
