Rtracymog Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the KBS 610 wedge shaft? I've read a lot on the KBS web site and it seems like it would be a good fit (weight, spin, etc.), but I was looking for a little feedback. A little about my game. I've got C-Taper 130X in all my irons (mid 90s with a 7 iron) and C-Taper 125 S+ in my wedges. I'm a big KBS guy (DG just isn't my favorite) and I do hit full wedges often along with a lot of half and 3/4 wedges. I like to open the face a lot around the greens and hit most of my short game shots with loft and spin. Any feedback and/or recommendations are welcome! Thanks!

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Kinda in the same boat as you - though not quite as stout. Have C-Tapers in stiff in my Hogan irons and wedges, but considering the 610's for a second set - and I really want to see what the new $ Tapers are all about. We saw them at the PGA Show - mid launch but lower spinning than the C Tapers?

Jiro Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Interested in the responses to this as well. I have KBS tour 90s in both my irons and wedges. I heard later about the wedge shafts and am curious what they are about. They have wedge in the name which seems to imply some design feature to suit a wedge game (spin?)

Sparksjr Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Just went from DG spinners in j40 wedges to the 610 in RTX3 wedges. Only one round in the books but for me I think I get a little more distance from the 610 with a little higher flight. Thus far less spin on chips and pitches but still too early to tell. I'll update more but I do know that I don't hate them.

Sparksjr Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Now that I have more rounds on these with the 54 and 58 I can say that spin and distance is very similar to what I experienced with the DG Spinners. I have ordered a 48 wedge with the 610 in it as well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
