Stiff Fairway

Stiff Fairway
steel shafted fairway woods…?

So I want to get my 3+ wood shafted with a dynamic gold shaft because i need a stiffer shaft but dont want to spend much on it.
I’ve never swung a steel shafted wood, but I hear that it is more consistent that graphite….
Plus, since the cost of steel is only $15 compared to the $65 graphite, not to mention installation charges.
So yeah…… How good is steel for fairway woods?
BTW, my swing speed is about 95 but i can amp it up to 110 (with control, that is)

If your club has a graphite shaft in it and you want to switch to steel an option is to get a dynamic gold lite shaft. The other option is to make sure you trim the shaft to the 42″ length with the gold shaft to lighten up the swing weight. You can get away with about 42 3/4″ with the lite shaft. I have found steel to be very consistent in my fairway woods and don’t think I’ll ever go back to graphite. I have mine cut to 42 1/2 for the 3 wood and 41 1/2 for the 5 wood with Dynamic gold s300 and they’re fine.
