6. Absolutely

2. 12.5
3. Hogan Apex Edge Pro; Apex 4 shafts
4. Stiff flex

5. I came onto the idea of the Tour 90 right as supplies were drying up and they were difficult to find; I've wanted to test a lighter shaft in the 2-4 irons to try and promote higher launch, particularly in the 2 and 3 irons.

6. Of course

4. What flex KBS Tour Lite do you want to test? X

5. Why do you want to be a KBS Tour Lite shaft tester? I was intrigued by a lighter steel option and these were recommended to me. I have a lower than average ball flight and am looking to bring that up a bit

[Mackshow19]

1. City, State?  Buffalo, NY
2. Handicap? 15
3. Current irons and shafts? Mizuno JPX 825 Pro, Modus 120X
4. What flex KBS Tour Lite do you want to test? 105X

5. Why do you want to be a KBS Tour Lite shaft tester?  I've kept my irons because I love them (see model above).  I was fit for them with KBS Tour 130X and had them for 10 years.  I had to reshaft a few weeks ago due to some tip bending issues and did a bunch of research and decided to go with the Modus 120X.  I absolutely HATE them. The ball flight is FLAT and LOW.  I want to get back into a KBS product to regain that smooth feel, and get the ball back in the air.  I am 35 years old, still need the X, but want to be faster again.

6. Are you willing to do an in-depth written review, with high quality photos, and future updates?  Heck yeah!  Fall has hit in Western. NY so I'd love to do a cooler weather review and test the launch conditions on this profile.

1. Herrin, IL
2. 5.6 Handicap
3. Callaway Epic with TT Elevate 95
4. I'd like the .370 tip R/S

5. I'm 6'5" and need longer length irons (+1").  So with the longer build, I need a lighter weight steel shaft in order to get the swingweight in an acceptable range.  I've also read that the KBS Tour Lite has a slightly higher center of gravity putting a bit more weight up nearer the grip end.  This should help with swingweight issue as well.  As I get older, I also need something that launches the ball higher with more spin.  I can't handle the DG S300's that I've played my whole life, so I've started to experiment with some lighter weight options but just haven't found what I am looking for yet.  It looks like the KBS Tour Lite checks all the boxes for me and I would love to try it.

6. YES, I am definitely willing to do an in-depth written review, with high quality photos, and future updates.
