Hi All,

Does anyone know if the NIPPON NS 1030H STEEL SHAFTS are for mid to high handicappers? I currently shoot in the 90s and will be switching to stiff shafts. I was told to avoid clubs that may have "pro" style shafts. (though i'm not 100% sure what the salesmen meant).

Any help would be greatly apperciated.

Oh and I'm looking into getting the Cobra SZ irons.

The Cobra SZ are GI/SGI irons, so those shafts should be fine for high handicappers. I played similar Nippon shafts in Cobra FP irons, and they are very good shafts. Reg flex for me.

Equipment:
Ping K15 Driver (10.5º) - Diamana BB R flex; Ping G15 4 Wood (TFC R flex); Ping G15 20* Hybrid (TFC R flex); Ping G15 23* and 27* Hybrids (AWT R flex steel); Ping G15 Irons 6-GW (AWT R flex steel); Ping I-Wedge 54* Wedge; CG14 BP 58* Wedge; Odyssey Black Series Tour Designs #9 Putter


Nippon NS 1030H may be a special version made just for Cobra.

Here's the Nippon website... gives specs for several shafts, but not the 1030H:
http://www.nipponshaft.com/findshafts.html

Site speaks of the "N.S. Pro sub-100 gram steel shaft series." So, lightweight steel. The Nippon steel shafts appear to favor middle kickpoint (or, flex point).

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Day 321: range session. Filmed while hitting to check things. Need a little more steep in the backswing, but good check to make sure I’m still on track. Also worked on sand shots for about 20 minutes. 
    • Have you talked with sprinters? Many would disagree that their sport is entirely physical. (I get what you're saying, but we're both speaking from a position, I think, of ignorance on this re: sprinting, or high-level basketball. What if you've missed your last four jump shots? How do you take the next one, or do you start to pass more?)
    • Also, go back to what you were doing when you were here. Start slow, and build from there.
    • Day 37 (6 Jun 25) - Friday men’s group shootout today - started off bogey-par, blew up three with lost ball triple.  Settled in to finish par-bogey, bogey-par-par-bogie 43 front. Opened the back with dbl followed by par, birdie, par, bogey, bogey, par, bogey, bogey to close with a 41 - 84 overall.  All that to cover key takeaways from today:  First - putting was solid with a total of 29 putts; Second - the two blow up holes were followed with pars (learning to leave it behind); Third - off the tee was solid (except for the blow-up on three); Fourth - of the 7 pars - 3 were up and down 1 putts and Fifth - out of position recovery type shots were about trusting the club to execute.  It was a good day - capped by closest to the pin on the par 3 12th hole….
    • And of course, none of that should matter if I’m practicing because it shouldn’t be based on the results of contact. Took me about an hour and a half to calm down to have that realization.
