Abstract:
An EI value at a point P16 separated by 16 inches from a tip end Tp is defined as E16, a shaft wall thickness at the point P16 is defined as T16, an EI value at a point P6 separated by 6 inches from the tip end Tp is defined as E6, and a shaft wall thickness at the point P6 is defined as T6. In a shaft 6, E16 is 2.4 (kgf·m2) or more, E6 is 2.7 (kgf·m2) or less, and E16/E6 is 0.95 or more but 1.50 or less, E6/T6 is 1.9 or less, and E16/T16 is 3.0 or more. A high-elasticity partial reinforcement layer including a fiber having a tensile elastic modulus of 30 (t/mm2) or more but 40 (t/mm2) or less is disposed in at least a part of a region falling within a range of ±4 inches from the point P16.
