    Great review & thank you. This is what I'm eyeing. Did u happen to also grab one of their gaps? I like matching gaps.
  3. +1 on all. 502s and other JdM of similar profile are versatile ie u will have low to high handicap using this.

    I love it M :) seriously that's is way too cool!
  5. Hiya Steals. Probably visit Drummond or golf mart & get a swing speed reading. Then describe your swing and perhaps 7iron distance here or email Tario and you will get some good advice. There's so much great gear & combo here.. Have fun shopping :) -E

  7. Completing the yammy set J? What about the gap?
  8. Is the 430 conforming?

    I had the same result as ur mate. Most consistent combo I had. GLWS.
  10. With irons d2, wedged d3 sand wedge d4 putter d7. Really just personal preference. Maybe with putter heavier for fast greens etc. With wedge shafts, I prefer matching the irons shaft for consistency.

    The diagram is wrong! Toe misses with this head goes longer :)

    With prior driver, were u a low tee'er? Room especially in 9.5 likes being teed up with a nice upswing On contact. If your a low tee'er it takes a little Time to change. Just because ur teeing it higher doesn't mean ur doing it right :) It's easy to expect the big bombs as u would with such a much talked About club but basically you need to let the excitement drop then grip down an inch and start at 70% more focusing on tempo and upswing contact. Mind if I ask your average SS & tempo?

    Yea my friend recovering is nearly back to golf... Gonna take his babies out & ryoma/crazy out for a spin next week. One of his buddy left his flightscope with him too so we should have a ball. I have no clue how they work lol.

    Hello C! Forgot ur a long time modus user! Glad that Monaco's are working great. Sounds like an awesome shaft. I'm slowly getting an appetite again lol.. I'll start with the shaft and see! E

    Yea.. That's what me hooked initially the feel then the flight surprised me even more. I think the butt softness aside from feel kinda adds to an overall bend at the top & along with the stiff tip, I really like the flight. I hope it works

    Hey Ed, read a good article. Definitely tip stiff & soft butt. This explains why I got a lower overall flight. "The Nippon Modus 3 Nippon Steel is one of the most successful steel shaft companies on the planet. They dominate the worldwide market for high quality lightweight steel shafts. Until this year, they have never had a player on the PGA Tour. That is because the standard Nippon flex profile is a very stiff butt combined with a soft tip section. That’s a good profile for players who want to hit the ball high. Very good for women, seniors and juniors. Not so hot on Tour. The new Modus 3 is very different from every other steel shaft that we have measured. It has a very soft butt section and very stiff tip. One anomaly of steel shafts is that a soft butt produces lower ball flight. Counter-intuitive but true. A second benefit of a soft butt is feel. Lower ball flight with feel? It is a sure bet that no Tour player would ever be fitted for a Modus 3 by matching shaft frequency to swing speed. I spotted the Modus 3 in V.J. Singh’s bag to be sure. What’s up with that? One more example where frequency matching doesn’t work." -Reason why users think its soft to flex especially using cpm. "Example Two: On the other end of the spectrum is the new Modus 3 shaft from Nippon Steel. On a frequency machine, a stiff Modus 3 will deliver a six iron frequency reading of 300 cycles per minute. That is off the charts in the other direction – a 2.5 flex value suitable for a lady. No clubfitter who relies on CPM would recommend that flex for anyone – too soft for a man, too heavy for a lady. And yet, the Modus 3 has 7 victories on world Tours in just a few months since release. V.J. Singh has been playing the Modus 3 for a year. Eight players in the 156 man Byron Nelson field were playing the shaft. That is unusually fast acceptance from Tour Pros who usually eschew change."

    When I hit the R+ c taper vs modus stiff, I had actually an initial high launch with modus but found the overall Flight stronger more penetrating & more carry. They are on different heads so once I have it installed on the s3 I'd be able to give u a better comparison. I had no trouble stopping the c taper and found distance control is great in both the babies & s3s Isn't modus stiff tipped?

    Will do M, I hope it works out as someone already prebought c tapers & they're still installed in my irons haha- a mate tried it a few times & can't believe the results.
