They are sitting in the shop waiting for me! They say for your 56 and up you should step down 1 flex. Softer, slower shots. 52 and lower you want stiffness and control.
How much consideration do you give wedge shafts?
Sweet. I have my regular shafts in my PW and GW. Went down a flex in my 53 and 58.
JB can call me a skimmer because I read this too quickly and thought you started playing A flexes
I don’t think too much since I’m not a full swing wedge player. I did choose graphite for my next wedges however, just because I’m getting old.
I have played wedge specific shafts for a long time in all of my wedges. Currently I have the Tour V wedge shafts which are 125 grams and stiff plus which is firmer and heavier than the KBS Tour V stiff flex shafts I play in my irons, this brings launch and spin down a touch which helps me control the distances a bit more. I have KBS .610 wedge shafts in the set of SM10 wedges I have in my Titleist bag.
I haven't given much thought to wedge shafts and usually play what is stock. Not sure why considering I give thought to the shaft choice in other clubs. I did choose shafts a little closer to what are in my irons, though slightly heavier, for my incoming Edel wedges to have a little better transition from iron to wedges.
In the past, I gave it very little. However, moving to graphite shafts in my wedges has been a game changer. Added spin and a higher trajectory allows me to pull off shots that I struggled with in the past.
Years ago, if there wasnt a DG Spinner shaft in a wedge I wouldnt even look at it!
