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 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.

      Golf Workouts

      I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
