<p>A shaft assembly (2), and a implement such as a golf club (1) embodying it, comprises two or more elongate shaft elements (3) and a tensioning mechanism (8) therefor. Preferably an elongate tension member (9) extends between a first, fixed point anchorage (10) associated with a first shaft element at the head (7) end of the implement or golf club (1) and a second, movable anchorage (11,12) associated with a different shaft element at the handle (6) end of the implement or golf club (1). End surfaces of shaft elements (3) may be profiled (4) to afford interlocking crests and depressions which rigidify the assembly longitudinally, transversely and in torsion. <IMAGE></p> |
