Starting point: Flex ≈ half of body weight (lbs). Choose softer for quicker release or stiffer for maximum power. Cutting a stick makes it stiffer. Height, posture, curve and cut length affect the final choice. Taller players near 150 lbs may prefer a Senior 70 flex for extra length and leverage.Flex & Size Guide (Intermediate)
