(opens in a new tab)\" href=\"\/kbs-completes-full-set-with-new-wood-shaft\/\" target=\"_blank\">.<\/a> This product finally enabled club fitters to custom fit in every club in the bag \u2013 making KBS the first single branded shaft company to do so.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><br>KBS now offers 29 different shafts through the bag, including 18 iron options featuring different weights, flexes and reliability. There are also four wedge shafts, one putter and a hybrid shaft. In addition to the new <em>TG Graphite Wood<\/em> shaft, there are four limited edition \u2018Black\u2019 options. All the KBS shafts are designed to fit the broadest range of golfers &#8211; from global Tour stars to accomplished amateurs and even juniors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The iron shafts played on Tour offer a mixture of ball flights, weights and dispersion. The brand\u2019s signature<em> KBS Tour<\/em> shaft is popular with many PGA Tour stars \u2013 including a former World No.1 \u2013 and offers versatility in spin and a mid-trajectory launch. The <em>KBS Tour V<\/em>, in the bag of the world\u2019s best left-handed golfer and a recent European winner of the Puerto Rico Open, features larger outer diameters, resulting in a stable tip section, tighter shot dispersion and less spin. Another popular shaft on Tour is the <em>KBS C-Taper<\/em>, used by last year\u2019s U.S. Open Champion. It\u2019s a low-spinning shaft designed for players requiring a low piercing trajectory and superior shot control. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><br>More details of all KBS golf shafts can be found at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kbsgolfshafts.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.kbsgolfshafts.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Red &#038; Black label shafts averaging a global Tour win each week<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":168144,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[688,2498,3694,2623,5790,5312,5791,1602],"class_list":["post-229109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-equipment","tag-19th","tag-golf-equipment","tag-golf-shafts","tag-kbs","tag-kbs-tour-v","tag-march-2020","tag-tour-professionals","tag-victories"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.8 (Yoast SEO v23.8) -
