I got to meet the Vokey wedge marketing director a couple of years ago. He said Bob Vokey suggests using the the same shaft and flex in your PW and GW as in your irons (players often hit them full); for your SW and LW - unless you hit them full a lot - have your iron shaft, only softstepped.

 

If you really want different shaft and feel in your wedges, go with it. Otherwise consider Vokey's plan.

I'm getting a set of irons with PX LZ 5.5 and trying to figure out what to put in new wedges. Should I match the PX 5.5 or go with the standard Wedge Flex in DG? There seems to be about a 15 gram weight difference.

 

I'm in LZ 6.0s in my irons and have tried PX 5.5, s200 wedge, reg xp115, s400, and didn't like any of them. Tried LZ 5.5 and they were just too soft. I have some LZ 6.0s I'm going to try next.

My 52* SW is matched to heavier PX 6.0 iron shafts, and LW is always DGS200. Also, my PW, SW, and LW are all the same length as my 9i. For me, it increases SW and how they feel. However, if I were playing lighter iron shafts like PX LZ, I wouldn't match my SW with irons. Shaft weight is the deciding factor for me.

I have LZ 6.0 in irons and wedges. I was using DG wedgeflex/S200 in 50/54/58 but decided to put the LZ in them to match my irons, mainly to get the same feel since I use my 50 and 54 for full shots routinely. Only had a couple of months with them but so far I'm liking the change.
