Abstract: A set of golf shafts is disclosed. The set comprises a plurality of shafts that decrease in length along the set. Each shaft includes a reverse taper section disposed a distance from the tip section on each shaft. The distance of the reverse taper section varies along a number of shafts as the shaft length decreases.A golf club shaft is disclosed. The shaft includes a tip section, lower section, and an upper section. The tip section connects with a golf club head. The lower section includes a tapered section and a reverse taper section. The tapered section extends from the tip section. The tapered section increases in diameter in a direction away from the tip section. The reverse taper section extends between the tapered section and the upper section. The reverse taper section has a diameter that decreases in a direction away from the tip section. The shaft further includes a resilient plug wedged inside the shaft.

Abstract: The present invention is directed towards a golf club shaft which comprises an upper section, a tip section, and a lower section therebetween. The tip section connects with a golf club head. The lower section includes a first tapered section and a hump section. The first tapered section is connected between the tip section and the hump section. The first tapered section increases in diameter in a direction away from the tip section. The hump section has a diameter that decreases in a direction away from the tip section, which is a reverse taper. The lower and upper sections are shaped so that the lower section is stiffer than the upper section.
