What is Torque?

Torque refers to the amount that a shaft resists twisting when you impact the golf ball. Imagine holding the shaft at either end and twisting it. If it could be twisted a great amount, it would have a higher torque. If it were difficult to twist, it would have less torque. Torque is measured in degrees, higher degrees of torque mean the shaft will twist more as you swing.

Proper torque helps to ensure the club is directed towards the target at impact. If you swing fast, you will need a shaft with less torque. If you swing slower, a shaft that twists more (one that has more torque) can actually help the club face square toward the target for straighter shots. You can view the torque rating of our shafts by clicking the "view shaft upgrades" link on each product page.

The term torque is only referenced on graphite shafts which are meant to bend and twist.
