Question Shaft Stiffness

Hi all,

I am going to be purchasing a new driver in the very near future. I have been told that the main thing I should be concerned with is the stiffness of the shaft. I have been told two different things regarding shaft stiffness.

The first is that the stiffer the shaft the less likely you will be to slice the ball. Then I have also been told that the more flexible the shaft is the less likely you will slice your drive.

What makes sense to me is that the stiffer the shaft the less likely you would be to slice the ball.

I will be getting either the Ping G5 or the Callaway X460 but am hung up on what kind of shaft I should get.

Does anyone have a definite answer to this question???
