intersting design.looks slightly.onset. shaft is unreal! hit it stragight with ezcellent feel not much else to say.its not long vs my roddio diamana x but its straight. dont like.screw in heads tho wanted to hate this but best i can do is dislike it. thats a win....
-
giving these a try at the range. sjafts are surprisingly not too whippy. nothing like steel but way more than decent. ball sits and spins higher flight and feel is first rate

with u on that as a whole, the , feel is kind of duller and slightly less lifeless, the stock shaft wasn't so bad, but with a steel shaft ( modus 105s) I have In the 17* 1i its kinda of eeeeek!, no life. at all the boron in the 21* is definitely better, I don't notice any lack of feel with that, I get a nice ting in the fingers on impact, but def not a soft gusssh like with the modart. that thing is outrageous for feel. this is a performance club solely it makes a good addition to a set as an alternate and I think the 21* is prob the best of them. I used a heap of utes over the hols and this was the one I eneded up going to more than the others bec the 5wood/4 wood made such a huge recovery for me in my bags the other strong lofted utes were benched , as were the driving irons , which is the first time in YRS they have been usurped . not everyone tee party that's for sure but for pure performance ESP from a tee this, wins.

Sing out to this VERY different utility/ driving wood. head shape is one of a kind. its on set, its HUGE and its so very easy to hit. I reshated this one with a diamana stinger 70x I had spare. certainly tightened it up and added some consistency . original shaft is ok...........................at best.....................as 3I LOFT (21*) ITS PROB NOT FOR THE majpority of players, but they make a 17* 1i as well and that's a different kettle of fish entirely, so the 21* is one of the easier high lofted DI/utes ive hit. Don't really know what to call this bec its not driving IRON, the head shape is a total club! much more like some weird wood shape than irons shape and nothing like ur normal utlity. it wins from a tee box, by a factor or all of it, blows all other utes away form a box, I used it yesterday and cud hit it 210-220 with ease. into a semi stiff breexze it held up really well, did not balloon, , its not very high launch ( thanks tipped stinger) and it doesn not like to move around laterally, its pretty awesome for point shoot even slightly toes shots stayed the course nicely. Put a new cadero on it, ( I wud never waste a cadero on a substandard club!) AND ITHINK that took a bit of sting out of its tail from the grass but made it a hammer form the tee. much prefer the thinner grips for irons or club played from the grass, BUT HTIS WORKS ok still and its SUPERB from deep rough , like yesterday where it was 6 inch deep plus , you can get the whole face on the ball and be farily confident ull get the face somewhere not the crown which is a rotten habit for the sleeker utes. the 21* is a decent all rounder but it excels from a tee for par 3s or short par 4s, I mean I think its unbeatable. from the grass ithink the more sleeker are easier but if u hit a lot of balls from tees to greens with utes , then this thing shud be worth a peek.

like ur thinking here. i.went.wih some.reds see.how they go in a.set of honmas i think. lighter but duller for.a.change of.feel worked.well with my tourstage mb abd shimada 3001s.
-
excellent find! think I may grab a set of reds STIFF as well.....
-
agreed sp blue not tje best feel similar.to 125s . tjey also look really schmick
-
I play a ton of golf in very strong wind on links or by the sea each year so I don't need shafts that launch high and soar for these days so I build a few sets to accommodate these conds. the best ive found are the SP blue, modus 120x, shimada 125s even tho these are very strout and pretty heavy then the NS125s of them all he sp blue are prob the best and the ones id go to if I were looking to have just one set. I get whay NS moved away form SP to modus for the masses but I still think they shud have kept making these as they were so damn good. got a cpl of sets of orange up my sleeve still and a set of blues in a set of old callaway tour authentic heads that are really lovely to play when its wet! id take the Sp range over the modus range still actually

Nobs I don't think the 130s are anywhere near as stiff to play as the 125s ive got several sets in play and find them pretty smooth. love the ball flight. soft stpeed a set of 130x protos and that gives them an extra kick, I get the ball higher and lands a bit softer. they are heavy, but they play lighter the the 125s bec of the flight. 120s play light and super smooth and the 105play very light and pretty stiff. my order of pref is 130s 120x 125s 105x but I still like the super peening range so adding them to the mix 130s SP orange s 120x 130x soft stepped Sp blue s 125s 105x

played both of these most days on home course can cud not fault them.. not long, definitely not the longest by some yards, but scarily straight and consistent. tiny draws were the order of the day,. just a cpl of feet. wud give up too much in JP on the grass we got here to play on but for where I was , sorry all my ubersclokens got benched. teamed these up with a prgr tour 5s with diamana thump 9 WHICH IS CLOSE TO STEEL without it being such... and well... game over for home golf on the short courses. seriously consistent.

Shimada are taught more like the125s for feel im playing a set of 3001s ina set of mb and they suit prefectly. kick seesm abit higher and lower launch and very tough to move about, they are point shooters the tour125s are like a dgx100 the tour115s like a s300 or ns120x kinda thing.
-
120s is miles.smoother than105x 130s is smoother than 105x 125 s is as firm as 105x and just softer than 120x. my order of.play is. oh and i only play ns pro iro shafts.. 120s 950s 130s 120x 1150s 125s 130x. thats my lot. best of ns all round is the 120s best shaft is the 130s best players shaft is the 125s if...u hit hard thru the ball. cant fo wrongwoth 120s hard or soft ztpeed for the masses. 125 for playrrs and 130 for phooooarrrr!!!!

Ive never believed bec. Its new its better.... esp in golf . while i play new clubs i dont foregt to look back and see hwere the new ideas came from. take these for eg.. been gaming these quite a lot recently. While the modern player will gasp in horror that the 7iron doesnt go more than 150yards bec its in a set where the loft of the pw is49*.. yes u read that right and these do take some hmmmm i really do need to restock my distances with them , the feel, the playability and wirkability is as good as any. i dont like offset, rather i domt like gooseneck. These are pretty set back but beceauese of the top line thinness and pure blade loks they dont go wizzing over left filed like mike trout on a spree. re did the shafts with NSProtos dp, had to build them at45.25 Inch 5i to get the weight right and nice perfect pro cords. Set is3/pw but left the 3iron original as i dont use it a lot. are these as good as the new stuff??? prob not better but not a lot worse, feel is almost the same, shape is important do these remind anyone of anyhting abit more modern maybe???

These are superb sticks they shud move quickly. was looking at them recently.
