WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The KBS Max HL Hybrid is a light graphite hybrid shaft built on the same bend curve as the KBS Max HL wood shaft, made to help slower swings launch the ball higher with more spin. It comes in five weights from 40 to 80 grams, in black, white or red gloss. It arrives assembled with your choice of hybrid adapter and grip, ready to attach to your hybrid head.

Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Want more height and carry from your hybrid
- Have a slower swing and want a lighter hybrid shaft
- Play the Max HL in your driver or fairway and want a matching hybrid
- Want a color choice: black, white or red
Not the right fit if you...
- Already hit your hybrid high with plenty of spin
- Want a low-spin, penetrating hybrid flight
- Want a published torque figure or swing speed range for each weight (KBS doesn't list them for the hybrid)
How It Plays
KBS built the Max HL Hybrid on the same EI curve as the Max HL wood shaft and fits it by swing speed rather than flex letters. KBS describes the whole line as built for higher launch and spin, with the lighter weights aimed at slower swings.
KBS labels each weight with a flex: 40 g Regular, 50 g Regular+, 60 g Stiff, 70 g Stiff+ and 80 g X-Stiff. Every weight has a 0.370" tip and a 0.600" butt.
The raw length is 42 inches, so there's room to cut it to the hybrid length you need.
Specifications

| KBS Max HL Hybrid 50 | Regular+ | 50 | .600 |
| KBS Max HL Hybrid 60 | Stiff | 60 | .600 |
| KBS Max HL Hybrid 70 | Stiff+ | 70 | .600 |
| KBS Max HL Hybrid 80 | X-Stiff | 80 | .600 |
Raw length 42", tip 0.370" with a 10" parallel section. Finishes: black, white or KBS red gloss. KBS describes the Max HL Hybrid as higher launch and spin. Source: KBS official Max HL Hybrid specs, checked October 2026.

| Best For | Matching the Max HL feel in your hybrids | Slower swings in the driver and fairway woods |
