Iv taken this from Harringtons official site.....
USE SOFTER SHAFTS
You'll strike the ball better and hit it further, People generally go to stiffer to nullify dispersion. The less the shaft is kicking the more consistent it'll be through impact.
I use 6.5 Rifle shafts and I used to use 7.2. I tried the much softer, more flexible 5.5 and I hit them gloriously, but I was advised I shouldn't use them. Basically, what they were saying is that the results on the monitor pointed to inconsistency in dispersion, distance and accuracy. But I got a great flight.
Put it like this, 99 per cent of golfers would hit the ball better and further with more flex in their shafts.
