iron shaft recommendations please

hello all

my swing speed with 6 iron is 82 mph,so im wondering what shaft i should be looking for in flex and im also after a mid trajectory with good control not heavy,anyone got any thoughts on this,i tried a project x 5.0 but that felt heavy with no feeling at all to me and like it was very stiff ? maybe the nippon ns pro 950 ?

The Nippon shafts are a little lighter, but still steel.

Have you looked into KBS Tour shafts?

Finally, see if there's a Mizuno retailer near you.  They should have the shaft optimizer;  take a few swings, and it will suggest some shafts for you.

thanks for that,do you think an dg s300 shaft would be too stiff  for my swing speed ?

It's probably fine in the flex department, but they're heavier than Project X, which you said was too heavy.

Maybe Dynalite S300?

Go to True Temper's web site and take their test.  It will give you a better idea of what you may need based on the answers you give them.
