How does a center shafted driver work?

A different connection. A clear purpose: straighter drives. The Original Center Shafted Driver by Beta Group puts the shaft connection at the center of the design to help resist unwanted clubhead twisting.

What makes the CSD different?

Most golfers recognize the familiar look of a driver with a shaft attached near the heel. Beta takes a different approach: aligning the shaft axis through the clubhead’s center of gravity. The goal is to change how the clubhead responds to forces that can cause unwanted rotation.

This center-shaft connection is the idea behind Beta’s Zero Torque driver design. The Original CSD is engineered to help deliver a more consistent clubface at impact, so the focus stays on where your drive finishes.

Why clubface consistency matters

A drive that starts offline or curves away from the fairway can leave a difficult next shot. Face direction, swing path and strike all influence the result. The CSD addresses one part of that picture: unwanted twisting through its distinctive shaft-to-head connection.

It is designed to work with your swing. It does not remove the need for solid contact, alignment or a suitable fit, and it is not a guarantee that every shot will fly straight.

Who should consider a center shafted golf driver?

The CSD is aimed at recreational golfers who have a decent swing and want to land in more fairways. If you are looking for more consistency off the tee, the center-shaft design offers a different approach to explore.

Beta’s focus is accuracy and control rather than a promise of extra yards. Consider how the driver fits the golf you play, and review its recreational-use and conformance information before ordering.

Frequently asked questions

Does Zero Torque mean every drive will go straight?

No. Zero Torque is Beta’s name for the center-shaft design concept. Strike, face direction, swing path and fit still affect ball flight. The design is intended to help reduce unwanted twisting; individual results vary.

Is this designed to add distance?

The main focus is straighter drives and more fairways. Evaluate the CSD on accuracy, consistency and fit rather than assuming a distance gain.
