Nippon differences?

[xxio]

Differences between the 950GH that I had from my RAC CBs and the 950 Weight Flows in my XBlades, and the Super Peenings I saw i a set of Maruman Exims? I need the answer before I pull the ones out of the X Blades.

Not sure on differences between the GHs and the WFs (not clear on the website?) but was told by someone in Japan that the Super Peenings were older models. Anyhow, do you see yourself telling people you play "Super Peening" shafts??? :wink:

The flow weghted shafts get heavier from the long to short irons.

I guess I have to retype this:

But isn't it when you get taper shafts they are supposed to be constant weight anyway? The shorter irons are the same weight as the long irons even if they are shorter? Marketing tool?

Nippon Shafts are the best made steel shafts in the industry. They are meant to be installed most often with lead plugs to match the shaft weight and head weight balance. Some of you might remember last month i sold 4 sets of limited edition MR-23's and XCB's with the Nippon Maruyama M266V shafts. He had these made for him after his neck and back problems occurred and after his pain went away has decided to stick with them over the X100's he was playing previously.

It is my opinion that because of Maruyama's particular tastes and success Nippon steel decided to mass release a softer version of the reverse weight flow shaft.

M=Maru

266= Score at Greensboro

V=Victory

They are gone sold before they even hit the shelves, perhaps before the stores even heard about them and a bunch of TSG sleepers have them and wont even post pics :yuk:

Maruyama is also changing the shafts in his woods also to softer shafts. I wouldn't doubt a new MR23 Cb coming with rumors in Fall. :surprize:

So how soft is M266V X-stiff? I hear they're softer than X100's but how do them compare with the NS Pro 1050 X?

You cant just order the shafts, You must buy the MR-23 blades or X-CB limited editions that came out with that shaft about 4 months ago.
