How easy is it to damage a golf club shaft?

xeroxman2901 asked:


I had a golf bag in my trunk and someone put a rigid 20-30 lb suitcase in the middle of the bag, and a 15-20lb bag on the heads. I drove around for a while on a rough road in heavy traffic, so lots of hard turns and potholes. It looks like the club shaft that was directly beneath the suitcase is slightly bent, but it’s hard to tell.

These are steel, regular flex shafts.

      Not wicked hard but yes it is hard unless you try to intenttionaly break it.

      Probably not bent. More in your mind. Shaft is more likely to break than bend plus they have quite a bit of flex. That is what flex is all about, the ability to return to the original configuration.

      If it looks bent then it probably is. Just roll it on a flat surface to see if it wobbles - then probably time to reshaft.
