I’ve been playing golf for almost a year now, and I bought JPX Hot Metal Pros to help improve my game in the future. But I accidentally got the stiff shafts. Does it really matter that much? I’m only 20, so my swing speed will get faster as I get better. I’m also working on getting more distance. Should I return them?
If you’re still working on your swing, regular flex might suit you better right now. Stiff shafts are more for faster swing speeds. If you’re set on improving your distance and swing, you might grow into the stiff ones, though. If returning them is easy, consider swapping for regular flex and see how it feels.

This is a club fitter. I’m assuming that the Project X LZ shafts are just part of your stock set. If such is the case, Mizuno categorizes the 5.5 flex code as stiff; yet, if you visit another manufacturer, they would categorize it as regular. You ought to be in the clear if this is the case.
