Having some of both, I would say it's the other way around, the KT-M feels stiffer to me than the ZZ Lite.

> Thanks! I tested Eye 2 with ZZ lite (black dot) on the driving range the other day and fell in love. My own Irons punishes me hard at every misstake. I found a complete set Eye 2 but the seller was unsure about the shaft. Eye 2 is not as common in the Swedish market.

 

If it does not work out with that seller I got a Ping Eye 2 Red dot (3 - W) with ZZ lite shafts you can have for cheap. South Sweden here.

Late to the party, but I just purchased a set of 1983 Eye 2s, V grooves, Pat Pending. ZZ Lite beat-up bands. Ping told me they are NZ+ shafts, then later explained that ZZ Lite and NZ+ are the same shafts. So I asked, if that is so, why the stepping is different. They said they might either be hard stepped or soft stepped and look differently. I'm still confused, but the shafts feel great, like all the other ZZ Lites I have hit. I have come to appreciate the heavier 115g shaft (going from 65 g). These irons are +3/4" and come in a D3, rather than the stock D0.

my first eye 2 sets were zz lites. I love this combo. Below is a list of classic ping iron shaft offerings. Correct the zz lites are depicted in the original post.

 

CS-LITE (Regular & Stiff): Weight: 93.9 ®, 107.3 (S) Torque: 1.8 ®, 1.7 (S) Description: Lightweight steel shaft that has a mid flex point and a mid to soft tip section. A very common shaft found in the G2 and G5 series. Ball Flight: This shaft is designed to hit the ball the highest of all of the shafts offered at this flex.

 

 

 

Z-Z65 (Stiff): Weight: 108.8g Torque: 1.6 Description: An updated version of the ZZ-Lite. Lightweight steel shaft that has a high flex point and stiff tip section. This shaft is only offered in stiff. The Z-Z65 is similar in flex to a Dynamic Gold S300, but is much lighter in weight. A very common shaft in ISI irons through current iron offerings. Ball Flight: This shaft is designed for a mid-ball flight due to the weight. It should fly lower then the CS-Lite and higher then the DGS and DGX.

 

 

 

ZZ-LITE (Stiff): Weight: 115.0g Torque: 1.9 Description: Very similar to the Z-Z65 but heavier in weight. The ZZ-Lite has a high flex point and stiff tip section. A very common shaft in Eye 2 irons. Ball Flight: Same as the Z-Z65. (NOT available for new orders)

 

 

 

JZ (Regular & Stiff): Weight: 109.8g ®, 115.1g (S) Torque: 1.9 ® 1.7 (S) Description: A mid weight steel shaft that plays a little softer than the Z-Z65 and ZZ-Lite. A very common shaft in Zing, Zing 2, and ISI irons. Ball Flight: Due to the mid flex point of this shaft it is designed to hit the ball between the CS-Lite and the Z-Z65. (NOT available for new orders)

 

 

 

DGS (Stiff): Weight: 124.5g Torque: 1.5 Description: Dynamic Gold S-400. A heavy shaft with a high flex point and a stiff tip section. Ball Flight: Weight of this shaft should hit the ball lower then all of the shafts except the DGX.

 

 

 

DGX (X-Stiff): Weight: 122.8g Torque: 1.4 Description: Dynamic Gold X-100. A heavy shaft with a high flex point and a very stiff tip section. Ball Flight: This shaft is heavy and aimed at players with a high swing speed or quick tempo. The shaft should produce the lowest ball flight of all shafts listed.

 

 

 

KT & KT-M (Stiff): Weight: 106g Torque: 1.9 Description: A mid weight shaft with a high flex point and stiff tip section. These shafts are most commonly found in Eye2, and Zing irons. Ball Flight: Mid, similar to ZZ-Lite (NOT available for new orders)

 

 

 

Microtaper (Stiff): Weight: 115g Torque: 1.9 Description: A mid-weight shaft with a high flex point and stiff tip section. This shaft is very similar to the KT Shaft. Most commonly found in the K series, Eye, and Eye 2 irons. Ball Flight: Mid, similar to ZZ-Lite (NOT available for new orders)
