    that's a heavy head!! Nice!!
  5. Yes ... however as you can imagine, a single set is just not going to do it for me!! 🙂 I do have a "split set" of blades coming in a day or two ... It's an abbreviated iron and wedge set Long, Mid, Short, Pitch and Sand The clubs are actually named that way. Loft wise they are 25, 33, 41, 50 and 58 I'll just add a driver and may be a shorter wood around 19 deg and a putter for an 8 club set up.
  6. both Loop shafts and Fourteen Type7 are sold!!

  8. Oh BTW, Men’s club tournament last Saturday, I shot even par 72 (34/38) using my IDBLs with Modus 120 S that I just installed. My iron shots were really good that day. Turns out I won first place in Gross score and had a couple of skins too. First time to outright win an individual tournament which was really exciting so I guess this combo works for me.
  9. My latest decision making in drivers is to just go with one kind of driver!! ( Insane!!! ) I've now built 3 Grandista RS-Ds drivers with Loop GK shafts. 2 are nearly identical specs. 9 deg head / 45" long. ( actually I think one was 9.5 deg measured ) 1 is a 10 deg head and 44.5" long. I've kind of lost interest in my other drivers. Ping, Romaro, Jbeam all going to BST or the Bay. Many experiments with these heads but the Grandista / Loop combo is what I like. Not the most forgiving or the longest... but ultimately I enjoy hitting this combo the most. ( well... for now )
  10. Only slight dislike I have about the Modus series whether it be 120 125 or 105 is that they claim they are high kick point but to me they are all higher launch. The only true low launch NS Pro shaft I have tried are the SP Blues. I know that SP Blue in Stiff will be too much shaft for me at this point so I just ordered some SP Blues in Regular flex to see if it might work. Weight is 122g raw which is just a tiny bit more than the Modus 120 but well below the Modus 125. And hopefully it will have that dull / heavy / dense feel similar to Dynamic Gold S200/300/400.. crossing fingers!
  11. I had my IDBLs reshafted with Modus 120 S this week... played today for Men’s club field day and shot a 72!! Now I want to try a 125 R flex!!
  12. If OnOff (Daiwa) actually make these shafts, then they should be of good quality. I’ve tried the Roddio i10 shafts before and they were smooth as silk..

    Such a beautiful head!! Love Grandista drivers!! GLWS
  14. Nothing against the SP Blues... I like them too. but I think they are Nippon's attempt to create something similar to Dynamic Golds. When you compare the steps on the SP Blue side by side against DG S200, they are almost identical. Obviously, quality control and tolerance are no comparison between the two but the design may be very similar.
  15. Modus 120 was their first Modus model. I honestly think they totally messed up with the stiffness specs. 105 was next and this time they did it right. 105 S is just above 950GH S which makes sense. 130 is a beast of a shaft. I actually won a set from Nippon when it was first introduced in the U.S. I had to Soft Step a Stiff. Here is a list of the top 7 stiffest in the list that I have but not including the DG X7 or the PX 7.0. I'm sure those are even stiffer. But notice how Modus 130 S is stiffer then X100. *** Modus 130 X 376 CPM K's Tour X 368 CPM Project X 6.5 362 CPM KBS Tour X 360 CPM Modus 130 S 359 CPM Project X 6.0 356 CPM Dynamic Gold X100 354 CPM
  16. I think an AF-Tour CB #4 or SUS-316 #4, AF-302 , AF-301 #4 would be good candidates loft wise. I think they are all 24 deg Any of these are more forgiving than a #4 AF-Tour MB in my opinion. If you are okay with other brands, Honma TW-U Forged #4 (24 deg) is a good multi-material driving iron that is quite forgiving for the size. It's not too bulky. I found that these Honma more forgiving that Mizuno's MP-18 MMC or Titleist T-MB in a smiler loft and better feel off the face.
  17. sweet sweet combo!! GLWS.

    Thanks for the info!! Look at that.... paint in the cavity going flaky....
  19. Problem I had with the K's8001 ( which is a uniflex model ) was that I got too much spin resulting in loss of distance by a significant amount. Felt really nice though.
  20. I'm now wondering if 125 R might be a good one to try.
  21. Many that I have spoken in the past love the feel of Modus 120 Stiff with their forged irons. Then they try 105 Stiff and are not hoppy because the feel at impact is harsher. 105 Regular is at a similar CPM with the 120 Stiff. Hopefully they will feel as good as the 120 Stiff.
  22. In my quest for improving consistency in my irons, I've decided to try a couple of other shafts. Will be trying Modus 120 Stiff and Modus 105 Regular with my current irons to see if I can gain consistency over the 125 Stiff that I have been using the last 18 Mos. What I'm hoping to achieve is to be able to hit my irons without grunting on each swing.... and hopefully to bring out the better/softer feel of the forged heads. Obviously shaft frequency is not the only thing that determines how a shaft fits your swing... but nevertheless I feel the need to try. Perhaps this might be useful info for others too so.. Below is a list of Modus series in the order from stiffest down to least stiff. Also throwing in 950GH, DG S200 and X100 for comparison. All based on standard 5 iron length with similar weight heads. 130 X 376 CPM 130 S 359 CPM DG X100 354 CPM 130 R 350 CPM 125 X 351 CPM 130 R 350 CPM 105 X 343 CPM 120 TX 342 CPM 950GH X 340 CPM 125 S 339 CPM DG S200 335 CPM 120 X 327 CPM 105 S 327 CPM 950GH S 325 CPM 125 R 324 CPM 120 S 316 CPM 105 R 314 CPM 950GH R 311 CPM 120 R 308 CPM
