Shimada Golf K's Wedge HW120 Shaft

Shimada Golf K's Wedge HW120 Shaft: Unleash Tour-Level Spin and Control

The Shimada Golf K's Wedge HW120 shaft is a tour-proven, wedge-specific design engineered to deliver exceptional spin performance, earning high praise from professional golfers. This shaft is a new, heavier addition to the K's-Wedge lineup, building on the success of the K's-wedge NW110.

The HW120 is meticulously crafted to optimize the "flex" (しなり) and "return" (戻り) speed of the shaft. This precise engineering is crucial for enhancing spin capabilities, allowing golfers to generate a high rate of backspin on their wedge shots. Tour professionals have specifically lauded its ability to make the ball "stop on a dime" (キュッと止まる), even from challenging lies in the rough. This means you can expect aggressive stopping power on the greens, giving you greater control over your short game.

Designed as a highly strategic, professional-grade tool, the K's Wedge HW120 empowers golfers to execute precise approach shots and intricate short-game maneuvers. It's built for those who demand maximum control and consistent spin from their wedges, regardless of the lie.

Key Design and Performance Features:

Wedge-Specific Design: Unlike typical iron shafts, the K's Wedge HW120 is engineered from the ground up to maximize the unique demands of wedge play, focusing on feel, spin, and trajectory control.

Enhanced Spin Performance: The optimized flex and return characteristics are directly linked to the shaft's ability to impart more backspin on the ball, leading to aggressive stopping power on the greens.

"Stop on a Dime" Control: This shaft is celebrated for its ability to help the ball check up quickly, even from difficult lies like the rough, providing invaluable control around the greens.

Heavier Weight Profile: At approximately 120g (actual weight may vary slightly based on cutting and flex), this shaft offers a more stable and robust feel compared to lighter options, which can be beneficial for players with faster swings or those who prefer more mass in their short game tools.

Professional Endorsement: The positive feedback from tour professionals underscores its capability to meet the highest standards of competitive play.

Seamless Processing Method: Like all Shimada Golf steel shafts, the K's Wedge HW120 benefits from Shimada's unique "seamless processing method." As Japan's first shaft manufacturer since 1930, Shimada produces shafts from a single metal pipe using their proprietary drawing process. This method creates spine-free shafts with superior circularity, leading to enhanced consistency, a smoother feel through the swing, and predictable performance.
