KBS launches its first graphite putter shaft

KBS has launched its first graphite putter shaft, the KBS GPS, which, among its many performance benefits, is designed to offer better distance control on longer putts.

The KBS GPS weighs 120g and goes up to a 38-inch option and is available in eight colours through the KBS Custom Plus department. Laser etching on the shafts is also available.
Designed as a low torque performance shaft, which results in minimising deflection bend commonly found in traditional steel putter shafts on longer putts, along with better distance control and ensuring the ball starts on its desired line, the KBS GPS also incorporates a premium crafted composite materials and fibres to ensure stability, durability and accuracy.

“We’ve been working on the GPS for a while following the success of the One Step putter shaft launched two years ago,” said KBS’s Director of R&D Kim Braly. “The GPS is stiff without adding increased weight as Graphite putter shafts can help the face from turning when a putt is struck toward the heel or toe. That will increase any putter’s moment of inertia making putting more controlled on miss-hits.”

The KBS GPS shaft is available at an MSRP of approximately £140.
