KBS has seen great success with the new Max line of wood and iron shafts that are designed for players who need to add some height in order to optimize their shots. The KBS Max HL hybrid shaft is the last piece of the puzzle KBS needed to now offer a full bag of shafts that will help golfers hit higher and more accurate golf shots.

The KBS Max HL hybrid shafts will be similar to their wood siblings, utilizing the same EI profile. KBS has built the Max HL hybrid shaft around fitting their swing speed instead of just going by flex. This philosophy will give slower swing speed players the ability to hit higher shots with added spin for better distance and dispersion.

The Max HL shafts will be offered in flexes from a 40 gram R2 through an 80 gram X-Stiff and in three different color options. Each shaft will be available in black gloss, white gloss, or KBS red gloss paint to match or contrast with the rest of your clubs. Fitters and builders will be able to get more creative with their players as the Max HL will be the common .370 tip diameter and have 10 inches of parallel tip section.

GolfWRX Staff

The first wedge has made its way to the Three Swing Challenge! This week we have the WedgeWorks A+ grind that was recently released by Vokey. BK is looking for a new 60-degree wedge, and this could be a contender.

Why three swings?

Many years ago, the legendary Barney Adams, founder of Adams Golf told us this:

“My formula as a fitter was three shots only. I discounted No. 1 just because it was the first one, counted 100 percent of No. 2 and discounted No. 3 because the player was starting to adjust.”
