Aerotech has been making sports products since the early 90’s. They were the first company to produce an NHL approved graphite hockey stick. In 2005 the golf division split from the parent company and created Aerotech Golf. The AeroTech SteelFiber iron shaft found its way to the PGA tour over 10 years ago and a company known mostly to custom club builders was suddenly a major brand in the shaft business. To their everlasting credit, the designs have not changed much. A few more weights got added, but like other icon brands in the shaft business, Aerotech has left what works alone.

The AeroTech SteelFiber irons shafts are the most widely used carbon fiber shafts on the PGA tour. What many do not know is that the same design is available for drivers, fairways and hybrids. The driver shafts are available in three weights, 65, 75 and 85 grams. The profiles of all weights are much the same, increasing in stiffness with weight. 

If you are playing Aerotech irons shafts and love the feel you should test its sole mate in your driver.

AeroTech Claymore Driver Shaft Review

Aerotech is one of those brands that does not change models every year or two. When a shaft is designed and produced, they keep making it as long as the demand continues. I can remember when the AeroTech Claymore Driver shaft was introduced to club makers almost 10 years ago. it has not changed during that time and remains a great shaft at a truly affordable price. Many things have changed for Aerotech since their iron shafts became popular on the PGA tour, but the company’s focus on golf club fitters has not.

The Aerotech Claymore is made with high modulus carbon fiber. Remember, it was introduced around 2009 when discussions of high modulus materials had not yet become common.
