Wedge Shafts…. Are They BS?

What do you guys think? Are they necessary or is it BS created by OEM’s to make people think they can’t play without them? Personally I can’t tell the diff...

Exactly. Sell them on WRX!

sdandrea1 I may or may not be banned from that place many years ago.
I tried to sell something no one could pronounce the price of.

Tough crowd here.

I suppose no one believes in the LA Golf putter shafts for 'only' $399 either. Which, BTW, are must haves, in case you didn't realize that fact.

Fools.

So the guy that was going to trade in the box of high end clubs to Golf Stix had last years TM Spider putter in there. So those went new for what, $300? This one I noticed had the KBS CT Tour black putter shaft in it. So that’s more money. I hit 7 putts from 8 feet and missed 7 of them🙄. Feels the same, looks the same. So much for the putter shaft upgrade. Apparently it’s sucked for him as well.

I suggested to others on the other forum to put a shit shaft in for the trade in. Nobody said anything🤔. I’m not good at dealing with idiots

Par4QC Lol!

SMT Yes. All B.S.

I always knew it was but wanted to get some good golf talk here from the boys😁

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

Par4QC $12 shipped??

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.

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".

Par4QC

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

And quit bringing my ex into any conversations here. 😲

Typhoon A lot of salty people out today, including me!
