Abstract

The invention relates to a method for measuring the deflection in a golf club shaft (3) for controlling the dynamic loft angle of a shaft. The method comprises the steps of fixedly clamping a shaft (3) at a certain distance from a club head (5), setting club head (5) in vibration, and measuring the vibration frequency while shaft (3) is clamped at the clamping distance. This is followed by releasing the shaft (3) from clamping and by repeating the above actions at varying distances from the club head (5) and by using the thus obtained measuring results for setting up a frequency profile for shaft (3).
