GOLF SHAFT AND GOLF CLUB MADE OF FIBER REINFORCED RESIN

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a golf shaft which is reduced in sense of incompatibility by hitting feeling and vibration transmitted to hands without adversely influencing on the appearance of the golf shaft, flexibility feeling upon a swing, and strength while keeping easiness of swing until the ball impact. SOLUTION: This shaft comprises a tip end part to which a head is attached, a rear end part to which a grip is attached, and a center part between the tip end part and the rear end part. The outer diameter of the shaft is almost gradually increased from the tip end toward the rear end of the shaft and the shaft has a taper shape. The shaft is equipped with a first part with almost constant linear density and a second part other than the first part. The first part occupies 30% or more of the whole length of the shaft and has linear density larger than that of the second part. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
