What is the ShaftSaverPro?

The sustainable solution to prevent unnecessary graphite shaft wear from the golf bag.

Protect your shafts from bag wear

The ShaftSaverPro (measuring 2 inches and weighing approximately 2 grams) is placed on the contact zone between the shaft and the golf bag to absorb friction. This ensures that the ShaftSaverPro wears down instead of your shaft. Suitable for all graphite shafts of drivers, fairway woods, hybrids, and irons.

Protects graphite shafts against wear inside the golf bag

The ShaftSaverPro wears down, not your shaft

Fits all common graphite shaft diameters

High-quality technical elastomer with an industrial adhesive layer: dimensionally stable and resistant to all weather conditions on the golf course.

Who is the ShaftSaverPro for?

The ShaftSaverPro is designed for golfers who want to protect their graphite shafts from wear in the golf bag and extend the lifespan of their clubs. Particularly for:

Graphite shafts for drivers, fairway woods, irons and hybrids

Golfers who take good care of their equipment

Clubfitters and golf shops that want to professionally protect their customers’ graphite shafts

Rules vs. Reality: For the win or for fun?

The R&A has officially designated the ShaftSaverPro as ‘non-conforming’. This means that the product may not officially be on the shaft during tournaments or handicap-qualifying rounds.
In practice: In a friendly round with your regular flight, the main priorities are enjoyment and the preservation of your valuable equipment. The ShaftSaverPro has no influence on your swing or ball flight.
The choice: Because the ShaftSaverPro is mounted with double-sided tape, it is intended for permanent use. Use during official tournaments is at your own risk.

When should you replace the ShaftSaverPro?

You replace the ShaftSaverPro as soon as it shows visible wear at the point where it contacts the golf bag. This indicates it has done its job: the ShaftSaverPro wears, not your shaft. With a thickness of over 1.5 mm, it offers long-lasting protection. In practice, a single ShaftSaverPro lasts for years. Replacement is simple.

The ShaftSaverPro can be removed from your shaft in under a minute. Watch the video.

When is the ShaftSaverPro not suitable?

In certain situations, the ShaftSaverPro may not perform optimally:

The compartments in your golf bag are not of equal height and you do not have a fixed club arrangement
You use multiple golf bags with different dimensions
If you regularly adjust the loft of your club
If you are about to purchase a new bag, which will change the contact/wear point

Frequently Asked Questions

How large is the ShaftSaverPro?

The ShaftSaverPro is approximately 2 inches long. Small enough to be inconspicuous, large enough to protect the exact wear spot.

Does the ShaftSaverPro affect the ball flight?

In practice, golfers generally notice no difference. The ShaftSaverPro has undergone an initial blind test using a Trackman with a Pro who hits a 270-meter carry. He noticed no difference, and the statistics also confirmed that it made no impact.

Can I install the ShaftSaverPro myself?

Yes. The ShaftSaverPro can be attached in a few minutes using the included double-sided tape. No tools required. Watch the instructional video.

May I use the ShaftSaverPro during official competitions?

No, not officially. The design of the ShaftSaverPro has been reviewed by the R&A and classified as ‘non-conforming’. This means that, according to the ‘Rules of Golf’, the product may not be mounted on your clubs during official tournaments or rounds for handicap registration.
In practice, many recreational golfers prioritize the lasting protection of their equipment over this technical rule, especially since the ShaftSaverPro does not affect ball flight or swing. However, please note that use during an official tournament may lead to disqualification (DQ). The choice and the risk lie entirely with the player; ShaftSaverPro accepts no liability in this regard.

Does the ShaftSaverPro protect the entire shaft?

No. And that is exactly its strength. The ShaftSaverPro is only placed where the shaft touches the golf bag – where the wear occurs. This way, you protect the exact vulnerable point without unnecessary material or impact on your club.

How often should I replace the ShaftSaverPro?

The ShaftSaverPro wears down instead of your shaft. Depending on how often you play, one ShaftSaverPro usually lasts for years. Replacement is easy and costs only a few euros.

How is the ShaftSaverPro attached?

The ShaftSaverPro is attached using the included 3M double-sided tape. This acts as a strong, flexible adhesive: it stays firmly in place but can be removed and replaced later without damaging the shaft.

In what quantities is the ShaftSaverPro available?

The ShaftSaverPro is available in retail packaging in packs of 5. In the webshop, they are also available in packs of 13 or 50.

I have a golf shop and would like to order a larger quantity. Is that possible?

Yes. For golf shops and club fitters, larger quantities of ShaftSaverPro are available without packaging.
This allows you to install the ShaftSaverPro as standard on every graphite shaft sold. Please contact us.

Where can I buy the ShaftSaverPro?

More and more golf shops and golf pros are stocking the ShaftSaverPro. The launch has just begun, and we are rapidly expanding the network. You can now order the ShaftSaverPro directly from the webshop on this website.

Can the ShaftSaverPro cause wear to my golf bag?

Both the shaft and the ShaftSaverPro can cause wear to the golf bag in certain situations.
