True Temper Project X Iron Shaft

The Project X Red is designed to produce a mid-launch and mid-spin profile. This combination is engineered to help you achieve a more optimal trajectory, which translates to better carry distance and increased stopping power on the greens.

In the Project X system, the 5.5 flex is roughly equivalent to a stiff (S) rating, 6.0 is a stiff-plus (S+), and 6.5 is an extra-stiff (X) rating. Choosing the right flex depends on your swing speed and tempo, so we recommend matching these to your current iron setup or getting a professional fitting.

This shaft features a 0.355-inch taper tip diameter, which is the standard for most modern forged and high-performance irons. However, you should verify that your current iron heads are designed for a taper tip installation before purchasing.

Yes, the shaft is designed to balance playability and power. By optimizing launch and spin, it helps many golfers achieve a more efficient ball flight, which often results in improved carry distance compared to shafts that launch too low or spin too little.

The Project X Red shafts range from 100g to 120g, depending on the specific flex and length you choose. This weight range is generally considered mid-weight, offering a stable feel without being overly heavy for most average-to-high swing speed players.
