Testing three different shafts in the same wedge to see the difference in launch, spin, consistency, distance control, and more! Is it worth having the shafts in your wedges custom fit for your swing? Find out in this video!
Russell made a massive charge on the last 3 holes of the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge this weekend to force a playoff with Eric Cole. Henley drained another putt on the first playoff hole to win his 6th PGA Tour event! While he is a Titleist staff member, his WITB is far from a simple blend of the latest gear. He mixes brand new with some very old clubs in order to play his best.

What happens when a 10 handicap and a +4 handicap go through a full driver fitting at one of the most advanced golf performance centers in the world? Brian Knudson and Andrew Von Lossow headed to the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, California, to find out.
Both players go through a complete Titleist GTS driver fitting with the Titleist fitting team to see how swing speed, launch conditions, strike location, shaft profile, and head setup can completely change performance off the tee. Even though the golfers have very different games, the fitting process reveals just how important proper equipment can be for maximizing distance, tightening dispersion, and improving consistency.
You will see how Titleist fitters analyze every part of the driver setup including loft, weighting, shaft selection, and head model to build a driver specifically for each player’s swing. While the skill levels, club head speeds, and desired outcomes are different both players show how deep and versatile the new Titleist GTS driver lineup is.

Was swing weight matched for each of the different shafts?

So in the Vokey wedges, the True Temper Dynamic Gold “Wedge” flex weighs about 132 grams. The S300 True Temper Dynamic Gold sold in many sets are about 128 grams. So the wedges are slightly heavier, 4 grams, and will fly a little lower, provided you can tell the difference. I guess that is the question: how many golfers can tell that 4 gram difference?

or a wedge shot that flies 3″ lower? Bottom line; will it result in lower scores?

Interesting at the end they mention playing different lie angles in wedges than the rest of the set. I play 2 flat in my irons….but found that 1 upright is my best fit in the wedges. Great video guys!

Love these guys’ videos, but this one was kinda bad in that it really didn’t show the effect of wedge shafts, rather it showed the difference between different weighted shafts. Would really liked to see a comparison of the same weight class wedge shafts against the gamer to see the changes, if any.
