Nippon shafts, especially the N. S. Pro 950GH, have been the “go to” shaft on the LPGA Tour for several years. But recently, the Modus 3 models have started making significant inroads on the PGA Tour.
The Modus3 line is a heavier weight (115 – 130 gram) line designed for faster swing speeds and tempos. The first models, the Modus3 Tour 120, is a mid launch shaft with solid feel and mid spin. Compared to the Modus3 130, the 120 feels a little smoother due to its softer butt section. The Modus3 130 has a very firm butt and mid section with a softer tip for higher launch. Sergio Garcia is playing the 130 because his very late release and steep attack angle means he needs to use a shaft that stays with him (stiff butt section) but allows for a higher launch at impact (softer tip). Not every golfer, however, may experience this higher launch if they cannot load the shaft properly. I was a case in point where I actually hit the Modus3 130 lower than the 120.
Just being introduced this week is the Modus3 125. I really like the feel and performance of this shaft. The Modus 3 125 the lowest launching of the three models with about the same spin rate. This means a lower peak height but still a good landing angle for holding greens. I will do a more technical review of these three shafts in a future blog but think of these three shafts in this way:
THP TV with a new KBS Breakdown segment. In this episode Kim Braly from KBS Shafts discusses the differences between C-Taper and C-Taper Lite shafts. I would love to compare on of the Nippon Modus 3 Tour X shafts to the KBS C-Taper X. I have read and been told the Nippon Modus 3 is a lot like the playing charismatics in terms of spin and launch angle except it feels a lot smoother. It is slightly less workable then the DG x100 and slightly less spin. I don't know if that holds to be true or not.
