Method and apparatus for measuring a flexural characteristic of a golf club shaft

摘要

An apparatus and a method for measuring the flexural characteristic of a golf club shaft. The apparatus includes a table having a clamping structure for clamping the golf club shaft thereto. A data collection system having a computer coupled to an image recording device measures the amount of deflection of the golf club shaft before and after a bending moment is applied to the golf club shaft. The stiffness of the golf club shaft is determined from the amount of deflection.
