I love my Vokeys, and when I ordered them I had True Temper Dynamic Gold S300 shafts put in them simply because that's what's in my irons. I've learned since then that those don't have great feel, which is something everyone wants with their wedges. My question is, do you think I should have different shafts put in them to increase feel, or will it make much difference?

Thanks!
Ryan

I'm partial to Rifle Spinner wedges but you could also try Dynamic Gold S200 or some other variant from True Temper

i dont think it would be worth the money to reshaft, but it may make all the difference from a psychological aspect

i heard that Project X's in wedges are some of the best "feeling" shafts..Ive never tried them but i just might eventually..Good Luck

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

agreed.. I play three vokeys and its probably not worth it but if makes you feel more comfortable then I guess you can do it. I dont know if you're going to get an actual change in performance, though.

I love stock shafts that vokey's come with. Does anyone know how much use you are supposed to get out of wedges in general?? how can i tell if my wedge is worn out?? I currently have a mizuno mp forged 56 wedge. i have used it for about a year and half - during warmer months I play about 3 times a week or more and I also take golf trips during the winter. I am only about a year and a half into the game so any thoughts on this subject would be great. I cant tell if my grooves are worn and what would be a better replacement for more spin?? a Vokey??

    • Day 44, June 17.  Today was some preliminary stretching, exploring what I'll want to set up as a regular routine (both while on vacation without clubs and when I'm back) (aside: this is part of an upcoming goal to stretch daily in a meaningful way, but I don't plan to count it as practice on days that I can meaningfully practice with a club)
    • Having a rough week. Went to the Dr. because I was really weak and could hardly swing my driver.  I take Propranolol 20 mg tablets twice a day. Seems like the Propranolol was driving my pulse down (low 50's).  So we cut the dosage in half and I started taking my blood pressure. It was a little high but pulse came up.   Then yesterday I raised it to 15 mg tab by taking it 3 times a day. Blood pressure 127 / 77 Pulse 75.  Heading out tomorrow morning for 18 holes.    I have my driver set at 10.5* but seem to have my swing speed to low and I can't get the lift on the ball I need.  I have not played this week in hopes I will have the strength to raise my swing speed. I may have to raise my loft to 12* . (I will take my driver wrench) tomorrow. (This Parkinson's is a pain in the butt.)  Will give you a report when I get back.    Retired Old Man, Terry
    • You still got to lift your arms. You basically just roll your wrist over in the 1st half of the backswing.   
    • Day 288 6-17 Low point control without ball. hit quite a few swing where i was wanting the club to hit the ground.  Added a ball with towel behind it, just to see where im at. Wasn't horrible but need some more work. Pretty much full speed swings. 
    • Current state of the program.  I can only do 25-50% swing speed, probably under 50% since I was hitting the ball out to the 150 yard marker (yay!),  to get the arms down and somewhat turn the body through impact. I mean somewhat. Arms down + body turn don't like to mesh at all. Anything faster and the body does stupid uncoordinated stuff. Mostly, I am stuck in the old pattern of staling the turn and flipping at the ball.  So, until I see progress. I am not posting anything here.
