  1. I cannot seem to find a discussion on the subject of playability of the stock True Temper shaft, or the necessity of upgrading to a better TT, KBS, or Project X 8 iron (Tiger Step) or wedge only shaft. I live in a large metropolitan area with plenty of club fitters and shops, but I am finding it to be a hassle and very costly to special order shafts in these wedges from the Titleist Factory. 1. Flex: Is the S200 Wedge Flex a regular, stiff, or something else? I know it is sorted by weight at True Temper to be a Dynamic Gold S200 instead of a S300 or S400, but the weight difference is only a few grams. How does translate into flex? 2. Weight: The S200 is listed to be approximately 127 grams. What do you do if you want to use a 100-110 gram shaft in your irons and wedges, and how does this effect the swingweight if you upgrade the shaft? Do you have to drill/fill weight ports to get back to D3? 3. Dispersion: What is the consensus on the mid ball flight dispersion with the S200? Do they provide a reasonable dispersion on full swings? 4. Spin: Is the S200 considered a low, med, or high spin shaft? 5. Butt Diameter: I have been told the S200 wedge flex butt diameter is slightly smaller than standard, so does the grip need to be built up with a wrap(s) of tape to be a standard diameter? Thanks so much I advance for anyone knowledgeable on this!
