Best graphite wedge shaft?

Recommended Posts

Thinking of a little experiment and wanted to get some feedback from you guys.

 

What is the best graphite shaft for a SW and LW?

 

I currently play Edel SLS01 irons with the Paderson SL 95 shafts amd like them alot...I have then in my PW and GW...was thinking of building a sw and lw to match but not SL...just at +1".

I've got a set of Callaway TCB's being built with the Mitsubishi MMT 105tx (+1.5" build) and I just pulled the trigger on getting a Jaws GW with the same MMT 105tx shaft but trying something different with the SW and LW.  For these, I decided to get the MMT 95s (still +1.5") and see how it works with a slightly lighter/softer shaft.  Given supply chain issues I probably won't see any of these clubs for another 6-8 weeks.

MMT.  I have them in my irons and they are the best composite shafts I have tested.  It's so stable and feels great.  They also play true to flex.

The answer to better golf is work your butt off and learn how to hit it better, farther, and make more putts.

UST Mamiya Recoil Proto Wedge are really good.

I had the Recoil Protos in my last set of irons.  They are good graphite shafts but the MMT are better IMO.

I have some Padersen Kinetixx wedge shafts that found were good. About 125 gms. 
might be hard to find now but if you like your current shafts they would be a good fit.

Still available but going through a rebranding. Now just known as kinetixx

Ok, just got new Fourteen wedges and my favorite Accra Tour 125 graphite shaft has changed (130 gr and different profile).  I’m considering the MMT, SF and not sure what else yetz. I didn’t like the Fujikura MCI’s in 115, not sure what the difference is in their new on.  I like the 125 weight range, soft feel since gaming Accra 100i’s in my irons which are very solid, yet soft.  
 

Suggestions?

I just reshafted with the MMT 125 TX Scoring Wedge shafts.  I’ll post more after thorough testing.

You will absolutely love them.  You may notice a slightly lower flight and spin though compared to traditional wedge shafts which are softer and weigh less.

Thanks, I’m looking forward to trying this weekend.  I really loved the Accra iTour 125s (both feel, stiff performance and clean graphics) in my Japanese CGS Orion SPY-1 Type S wedges, but they stopped making.  Their new 130 gram has ugly graphics and softer flex, so I decided to try the MMT Tx Scoring wedge shafts.  Previous SF iron and Fujikura wedge shaft experience wasn’t positive enough.

How have the 125tx scoring wedge shafts been working for you? I've been playing 105TX shafts all year and I love them. My wedges are still S400. I've thought about 125TX softstepped or the scoring wedge.

The 125tx scoring wedge are nice shafts, not overly stiff and give me nice control to flight my wedges down while still maintaining feel around the greens.  I’m about to put my 52/58 Fourteen RM-4’s with MMT 125tx in the classified since wife bought me new wedges for anniversary. The new ones also have the 125tx!

I’ve got the Accra TZW Prototype 130x in SM8 54 and 60 degree wedges and they’re very good. I’m also playing the MMT 105TX in my X Forged CB 4-gw so the transition was seamless. The Accra feel like a little bit more stable and smoother S400 imho. I likely won’t ever go back to steel shafts except in some putters.

MMT 105 or 125 scoring wedge or regular version.
