A few weeks ago I was fitted into a set of Wilson C300 with a KBS Tour 105 Stiff shaft (110-114g). The shop did not have any Mizunos in stock however so I have now decided to buy the 919 Forged blind.

I have the following shafts (in stiff) to choose from:

KBS Tour (120g)
Project X - LZ 6.0
Project X - Rifle 6.0
Nippon Modus 105
Nippon Modus 120
True Temper DG 105 (s300)
True Temper DG 120 (s300)

Which shaft do you think is the closest to the KBS Tour 105? Or which one should I get? My swing speed with my irons is between 80-85 mph (driver around 105 mph) and carry distance with a 7 iron is around 155 yards. 

Unfortunately I do not have time to go for another custom fitting.

I tested the Nippon Modus 105 against the KBS Tour 105 and found them very similar. I thought the Nippon felt a bit smoother at contact. They were both put in a Mizuno head (MP-60 and MP-57).

Modus 105 and DG 105 will be the closest. Weight is about the same as is the flight.

I have just bought the JPX 919 forged with Dg105 s300 shafts. They replaced a set of irons with Xp 105 s300’s. 

 

I would say say the Dg105’s are slightly stiffer and slightly lower launching than the modus. Took me about 20 balls  to really get used to them. Love em and the stickers are cool

      Day 66: Played 18! Wasn't really keeping track of score, but guessing in the low 80s. Driving okay, iron play up and down, lagging putting really bad. Overall, it was good to get out and play.

      Day 12 (30 Jan 26) -  Had hoped the men’s group would be playing, but the cold temps and delayed opening kept them at bay. Spent some time on the range working on loading the trail foot on the backswing (focusing on loading the inner portion of the foot and collapsing the knee slightly toward the ball). Learned too much really brought on a left pull.  Easing back a bit, really helped compressing the ball and overall accuracy.  Took it to the course for a practice round, focusing on this small change.  Saw better dispersion across the bag….guess this will be part of the mirror work drills as snowpacolypse 2 hits eastern NC.

      First Season With Blades - Let's Discuss

      By tomfig · Posted

      I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
