Ask the Experts: “How do you fit for shaft flex aside from just swing speed?”
Fujikura’s Tour Fitting rep Marshall Thompson explains what else goes into fitting shaft flex aside from just swing speed, and whether it’s true that shaft flex doesn’t matter as much for golfers with smooth transitions.

BK’s Breakdowns: Russell Henley’s winning WITB from the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge
Russell made a massive charge on the last 3 holes of the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge this weekend to force a playoff with Eric Cole. Henley drained another putt on the first playoff hole to win his 6th PGA Tour event! While he is a Titleist staff member, his WITB is far from a simple blend of the latest gear. He mixes brand new with some very old clubs in order to play his best.

Titleist GTS driver fitting: 10 handicap vs. +4 handicap
What happens when a 10 handicap and a +4 handicap go through a full driver fitting at one of the most advanced golf performance centers in the world? Brian Knudson and Andrew Von Lossow headed to the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, California, to find out.
Both players go through a complete Titleist GTS driver fitting with the Titleist fitting team to see how swing speed, launch conditions, strike location, shaft profile, and head setup can completely change performance off the tee. Even though the golfers have very different games, the fitting process reveals just how important proper equipment can be for maximizing distance, tightening dispersion, and improving consistency.
You will see how Titleist fitters analyze every part of the driver setup including loft, weighting, shaft selection, and head model to build a driver specifically for each player’s swing. While the skill levels, club head speeds, and desired outcomes are different both players show how deep and versatile the new Titleist GTS driver lineup is.

I feel like this boy scratches the surface of shaft selection. Would love to see more videos like this with more depth. Let’s hear about profiles, tendencies of manufacturers, trajectory, kick point. So many angles…

Head design is something we have found to be a missing component in the shaft selection process. The weight, design (cg, hosel length and depth, length from heel to toe, breadth) and other play a part in how the shaft will function and whether the marriage of shaft and head will fit the persons swing profile and load.
