    Hi,

    I'm looking at purchasing some Vokey SM6 wedges and am slightly confused by the KBS shaft options.

    I play KBS Tour Stiff shafts and would like to use KBS in the wedges, up until now I have always just had the standard Dynamic Gold Wedge flex.

    Looking on the KBS site, they specify a KBS Wedge shaft that is designed to compliment the Tour shaft. kbsgolfshafts.com/.../kbs-wedge However, there is no such shaft option in the Titleist custom book? Is this because the Tour shaft will just come as a Wedge flex if ordered in a SM6 or is it they just don't offer this shaft? If not, what do you recommend as a good option?

    Thanks Alex

    Alex, I play KBS Tour stiff 120 in my irons and I have a 54* Vokey I ordered with a KBS shaft a couple years ago. The KBS shafts make the club over all weight lighter than the DG shafts but it also reduces the swing weight. I had to add some lead tape to get the swingweight were I wanted it. But I like the contestant feel with all the other irons..
    Hope this helps!

    Thanks for your reply Todd. Does that mean you have put the KBS Tour Stiff 120 in your Vokey and not a specialist wedge shaft?

    Thanks for your reply Todd, so to clarify you have the standard KBS tour shaft in your wedge rather than the specialist KBS wedge shaft?

    the KBS TOUR comes in several flex options, and currently have SM6 52*F, 56*M, 60*L in my bag with KBS TOUR S in them after three decades of different True Tempers in X and S these are the best feel shafts I've used in half wedge and around greens shots, my playing buds see it and want to know what changed. I ain't talking.
