jroot327 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 So, I am replacing my current Cleveland 56* and 60*. I've decided to experiment with Edison and give it a shot with the 55* and 59*. Being that you can't get fit with these I am looking for some general rule of thumb help on selecting shafts for them. Like I said I currently game Clevelands that were bought off the rack. I was fit into Modus 120x last year for my irons and love them. So my options as I see it are: 1. Go with the stock KBS Tour 120 stiff that Edison offers? 2. Upgrade($15/club) to match my Modus 120x? 3. Upgrade to Modus 120 stiff, as I've read dropping a flex in shaft irons? 4. Upgrade to the Modus 125 Wedge shafts? 5. I hit my 56* mostly for full shots, so I could split the 2 and upgrade to Modus 120x in the 55*, and the Modus 125 wedge shaft in 59*? So, if there are any wedge/shaft gurus out there that could point me in the right direction, or anyone who has experience with wedge shaft tinkering I'd appreciate it.

null Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Safest bet is to upgrade in to Modus 125 wedge. Slightly heavier and slightly softer than your iron shafts, which is pretty much the exact direction a fitter would steer you into Modus 120 is probably my favorite iron shaft after my Obans. I got fit for irons and wedges a few years ago and Modus 125 was the best feeling and best performing wedge shaft I tried. If you like your Modus 120x shafts in your irons then I’d bet good money you’d like 125 wedge in the wedges jroot327, GolfSpy_SHARK and GolfSpy BOS 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May consider the Zipcore tour rack raw and get the grind/shaft/grip I want. fozcycle 1 Quote B21 9.5* w/ PX Evenflow Black 6.5 G410 SFT 16* 3-wood w/ PX Evenflow Black 6.5 Stealth DHY 2i w/ Aldila Ascent Black Stiff z585 4-AW w/ Modus3 120x RTX Zipcore Tour Rack Raw 56.12 & 60.10 w/ Modus3 125w Super Select Newport Plus -or- White Hot OG #1WS w/ Stroke Lab ProV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May consider the Zipcore tour rack raw and get the grind/shaft/grip I want. So I had emailed Edison not to long ago because I was considering some exotic graphite shaft that they didn't have available. They said they would sell me heads only for $129. Then I could go and buy whatever shaft I wanted. Keep in mind the Edison heads are 0.370, so you will need to shim the modus 125 wedge shaft if you got one.

Not sure I want to go through the hassle, plus you lose the warranty when buying just the head.

The Edison with the shaft/grip I want would be closer to $250/club. I think Vokeys are in that range also?

GolfSpy BOS Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Add me to the Modus 125 Wedge club. It was the best performing and feeling for me in a fitting. I'm also using Modus 120x in my irons. As you mentioned Cleveland does have the shafts available and I know Cobra does as well as a no charge option. But if you're set on Edison I think it's worth it to do. All depends on what your budget is. jroot327, GolfSpy_SHARK and bens197 3 Quote Epic Max LS 10.5 - Motore X F3 6X | Speedzone 5-wood - Ventus Blue 8S | TSi3 20* Hybrid - KBS Proto 85S SMS Pro 4-PW - Steelfiber i110S | MG3 Raw Black 50.09, 54.11, 58.11 - DG TI S200 ER2B | Pro V1x | NX9 Slope | Jones Trouper R | CaddyLite EZ v8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingGreens Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Yes you’re right your basically in the vokey and zip core range.

dlow206 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Will Edison double soft step the Modus 120X for the $15 upgrade price? That would probably work well too. myherobobhope and jroot327 2 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 07/15/2022 Driver: Rogue St Max LS - Autoflex Fairway Woods: Rogue Max St 3HL and 7 Wood Irons: JPX 921 Hot Metal 5 to AW - Aerotech Steelfiber i95 Stiff parallel tip Wedges: Glide 4.0 54 and 58 Putter: PLD Custom Kushin 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, no offense to Edison, but they aren’t worth $250... plenty of good options for less. I think the modus wedge shaft or the 125 stiff makes the most sense... It’s the commonly suggested setup. jroot327 1 Quote Mavrik 9 degree - Ventus Black 7X Mavrik 13.5 Degree - Hazardus Smoke Sub70 19 degree - Proforce V2 8F5 Sub70 4u - Proforce V2 8F5 Sub70 5i - DG S400 Adams CMB 6-GW - Project X 6.0 Sub70 54 (286) and 58 (JB Low Bounce) - S300 SeeMore Trimetal Mallet (Custom fit and built...
