There’s never been a better time to purchase golf shafts online. And, of all the stores that offer the ability to order shafts online, Fairway Jockey continues to be a top contender as the best place for value, abundance of options, and customer service.
We pride ourselves on being a one-stop-shop for players of all backgrounds and experience levels in investing in a custom-made club. Key to a high-performing club is a golf shaft, which is why we specialize in custom-made shafts from today’s leading brands. Here are three reasons why Fairway Jockey is continuously rated as the best place to buy golf shafts online.
1. Fairway Jockey has hundreds of shaft options.
With over a dozen top brands such as VA Composites, Mitsubishi Chemical, and OBAN featured on our website, there is no shortage of availability with shaft options. In fact, many first time shoppers find the sheer amount of options to be a bit overwhelming! To assist, our ‘Shafts’ tab has a menu for filters on the left-hand column, which distills the results of the shafts depending on preferences such as brand, shaft type, trajectory, and spin rate.
Additionally, each shaft description is written thoroughly, with educational videos alongside some options to help you understand the value of some shafts more readily. Simply read each description to learn the qualifying factors of each shaft, including how it can help your game.
2. Fairway Jockey provides the opportunity to customize each shaft.
Beyond the abundance of options, each shaft will be customized to your specifications. Once you have identified the right shaft for you and your game, you will be prompted to decide the following:
- The model of the shaft
- The flex of the shaft
- The shaft adaptor sleeve (chosen by dexterity and brand, with brands ranging from Callaway to Titleist)
- The optional add-on of SST Pure Alignment, which uses the latest software to determine the shaft’s best orientation for stability
- Playing length
- Grip (choose by color and brand)
- Number of wraps of tape
The form additionally asks which club head model and loft are used, which ensures proper manufacturer tipping.
3. Fairway Jockey offers phone appointments and live chats.
Although the opportunity to find the right shaft for your game and customize it accordingly is designed to be an independent process, we offer support for every step of the way. Our experienced, world-class fitters are on standby for live chats from 7:30-3:30pm PST Monday through Friday, and we also offer thirty minute 1:1 phone appointments from 9:00-3:00pm PST on weekdays. Furthermore, for less urgent questions, you can submit an “Ask a Question” form on the shaft of your choice, and one of our team members will get back to you as soon as possible.
4. All clubs are assembled by hand in-house.
Once your order is placed, our master craftsmen get to work on hand-building your club within our 20,000 square foot warehouse in Scottsdale, Arizona. We build according to the tightest tolerances in the industry, and our craftsmen are the best in the game -- enabling you to be the best in yours’.
