Par4QC I have some steel shafts that one could use in their wedges."

Use the Florida address. I sold the VA place.🤣

MidwayJ When the wedge shaft market inevitably collapses, I'm going to snap some up a bunch cheap. I'll build iron sets with long extensions

I've actually done this to some degree. Rockbottom golf had some wedge shafts on clearance for a few bucks each several years ago, and I just hardstepped them into a couple of single length hybrids. As an added bonus, I think I didn't even need to extend them as the raw length matched up with the 8 iron length I was using for the hybrids

    I can see how it could work fine if the length of the clubs you're using them for is short enough.

    I need a couple .355t shafts for a couple Mizzy wedge heads. Don't give a rat's ass if they say wedge on them or not. Too much wasted thought/energy.

    I had several of the TT Collegiate shafts that have been put to good use thru the years. Just shafted a PW and GW of the Maltby TE+ with them, to celebrate my University of Michigan National Championship!! I wish they still made them

    Hope I'm not standing close to any of you, when the bolt comes down, and all that hot air comes rushing up from 'the entrance' to your new homes!!

    Wedge specific shafts should always be used, it's why and what they were designed for.
    What could be any other reasoning????

    They have even taken any thinking out of the equation for everyone, simplest irons you could build. No R, No S, No X flexes. Just......wedge!! For your wedges, dammit.

      Or is the W for Womens flex…🤔🤔. Make ‘em soft and heavy, like a fat broad’s ass.

        Typhoon They always say 'wedge', never seen just the W.

        And quit bringing my ex into any conversations here. 😲

        I remember Callaway's "Uniflex". I once asked a store owner what flex Uniflex was close to and he said "well, it's kinda between.......fuck, I don't know".

          sdandrea1 Just happen to have a set of them, stuck in brand new Snake Eyes heads!!

          Backinit gave me a couple wedge shafts and some guy dropped of a brandnew Scratch 47 degree head here.

            Sooo, you lied to me. 😒

            Some of them, supposedly, give a little more spin, like 300-600 RPM. I had gotten one of the XCaliber ones cheap when Maltby was blowing them out years ago. I put it in a lob wedge. I rarely hit full shots with it, so I don't notice a difference. The new Rapid Taper wedge shafts claim a 2000 RPM spin increase over steel wedge shafts.

              They’re talking comparing different materials and shafts. Take the Rapid taper from the set, maybe go down a flex, maybe not and then do the comparison to the wedge specific shaft.

              I tried a couple of the Apollo hump shafts in a pair of wishon wedge heads on my last round of last year. The faces of the wedges had so many micro grooves that you could probably grind corns off with them. I didn't notice anything breathtaking with either. Not bad just not remarkable.
