Modus 120 regular shaft….graphite equivalent suggestions.

[Sparty4202]

I’m looking for some feedback….trying to find a graphite shaft in the 90-95 gram area that has a similar EI profile to a Modus 120 regular shaft. I like the feel of a Modus 120 but need a little lighter weight in graphite. I’ve had too many wrist and elbow issues to go back to steel shafts. I’ve used sensicore inserts in the past but that’s not enough vibration damping for me now. I’ve been playing a light weight UST Recoil the last few years but I need something with a little more weight especially in the short irons.

I'm not aware of a graphite shaft that has that bend profile,...but if you liked the flex feel of the Recoils, I'd just try a heavier weight in those

Which recoils have you played?   Their lightweight ESX, smacwrap, and 600 series are MUCH lighter in weight than say the 95 Recoil or 95 Recoil proto's.  I know little to nothing about the EI profile of those lightweight Recoil shafts or the 120 for that matter.  I never cared for the 120 or 125 Nippons.

 

I play the Recoil 110's but would say their EI profile is closest to a KBS Tour V, or at least after Rifle shafts I played that KBS until I switched(due to wrist issues) and the switch from KBS Tour V to Recoil 110's was seamless for me.   Flex I compared was F5 in the Recoil to X in the KBS Tour V.

Thanks for the feedback…I’ve never played KBS shafts. Never liked the feel of Rifles & Project X shafts. Before graphite I’ve played DGS300s, TT AMTs and Ping AWTs. I have played some 90-95 gram graphites in the past but still searching for the right combination.

Which Recoil are you currently playing?

I’m currently playing the ES 460… but I’ve played the ESX 780 & the  Smacwrap 780 plus 2 older UST Tour Weight graphites in 95 & 125.

One of my issues with these is even though they are taper tip from UST they are descending weight and the short irons just don’t feel right. I’m going to test the Recoil 95 & the Steelfiber i95 & fc90.
