How to use the Swing Weight Calculator
- Enter the weights (in grams) for the club head, shaft, and grip. Use positive numbers (zero is allowed for weights).
- Enter the club length (in inches) and the balance point (distance from the grip end to the balance point, also in inches). Both must be greater than zero, and the balance point cannot exceed the club length.
- Click "Calculate Swing Weight" to see the result.
- Read the result displayed in "points" (a standard swing weight unit). The formula used is shown below the result for reference.
Important: All inputs must be in the specified units (grams and inches). If any field is invalid, an error message will appear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Swing weight is a measure of the balance of a golf club, indicating how heavy it feels during the swing. It is expressed in points (e.g., D0, D2).
Swing weight is calculated using the weights of the head, shaft, and grip, along with the club length and balance point. The formula involves the moment of inertia about the grip end.
Typical swing weights range from C7 to D5 for men's clubs and C4 to D0 for women's clubs. A D2 swing weight is common for many golfers.
