(Assembled) Alpha Platinum Driver Shaft with Adapter Tip + Grip
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Alpha Platinum is a mid-launch graphite driver and fairway shaft from Alpha Golf, which has designed golf equipment since 1992. It uses "S-Carbon 500" high modulus fiber for a smooth feel that still holds up to fast swings. We sell it in four weights, 45 to 75, from LL (ladies soft) to X flex. It arrives assembled with your choice of adapter and grip, ready to attach to your driver or fairway wood head.

Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Want a mid launch in an affordable shaft
- Want a smooth feel
- Need a ladies (L, LL) or senior (A) flex, or an X in the heavier weights
- Want to pick a weight from about 47 to 78 grams
Not the right fit if you...
- Need to bring launch and spin down a lot: look at a low-launch, low-spin shaft instead
- Want a tour-grade profile with published launch and spin ratings for every flex
How It Plays
Alpha rates every Platinum flex mid launch. The S-Carbon 500 high modulus fiber gives a smooth feel while staying strong enough for powerful swings, and Alpha says it produces consistent launches with minimal dispersion.
Weight is the main choice. The 45 series weighs about 47 to 53 grams, the 55 series 57 to 58, the 65 series 68 to 70 and the 75 series 69 to 78. Alpha also publishes a frequency (CPM) for each flex, from 195 in the 45 LL up to 280 in the X flexes.
