Best Wedge Shafts

Recommended Posts

I know there were some mentions, but for me, Nippon shafts are better. I presently have the wedge specific 125 shaft. Great wedge, but there are many others that I think could think of as well. I might try the 120 iron in my 60 and then 125 iron shafts in the other 2. I also think the Super Peening Orange is a great wedge shaft ( if you have the right tempo).

A matching shaft AND heavier swingweight suits me and dgs200 or 300 in vokeys and callaways works fine.D5 + currently on 9 pw 50 54 58

Titleist SM7 50 & 54 with Nippon Modus 125 Stiff (128.5g), SM7 58 with DG Wedge Flex (mainly for bunkers, I play the 54 from almost anywhere.) Getting ready to replace my PW (TM p790) with a SM6/7 46 and I'll put the Nippon 125 in that. The rest my p790's, for reference, are all KBS Tour 120 Stiff. Just like the weight and control-ability of the combo. They go where you aim them.

IMO every should be playing a soft stepped wedge shaft of the shafts they play in their irons... ex. You play KBS 120s, KBS 120s 8 iron shafts in all your wedges...

I play the modus 120s in my irons and they are great for me. I’m a low ball hitter so I get good launch but they still have control. In my wedges I have been using r300’s. Same feel, just a bit heavier. So far I love this setup. If your used to PX 6.5 or above the modus 120’s will be too soft and light in a wedge. I can see where it would be way off for you.

I like the DG TI S400 in my 50*. Stable feel and can flight it down easily if I need or want to. I have a regular Vokey Wedge shaft in my 56... It feels a little light, not sure it'll stay... I may swap it out for a spinner, I like that shaft as well. I think it depends on how you use that specific wedge... If you don't hit a lot of full shots then a stock wedge shaft may be fine but if you step on it, something a little heavier seems to be a better option IMO.

Heavier and lighter is generally the rule. It’s why the #1 iron shaft on tour is X100 and #1 wedge is S400. I play modus 125s in 4-PW and 52 and modus 125 wedge (5g heavier and a softer ei curve) in 56 and 60.
