The Nippon Modus3 110 is the third Modus3 shaft from Nippon ending with a 0. First was the 120, then the 130, now the 110. The moniker is a rough approximation of the weight, but also an reference to a unique bend profile from Nippon. Those shafts ending with a 5 are the same profiles with the numbers, 105, 115 and 125 indicating weight. In the Modus3 110 family, the weights range from R at 103g, S at 109g and X at 114 grams. Weight directly correlates to stiffness as it does in all steel shaft

The GHneo 750 is the third iron shaft in the GHneo family of shafts, Joining the 950 and the 850 models. As with most iron shafts, weight is correlated with stiffness. The Nippon GHneo is no exception.

Nippon 850 GHneo Iron Shaft Review

A companion to the Nippon 950 GHneo has just been released, the 850GHneo. New graphics on what is essentially the N.S Pro 850. When the 950GHneo was released I mentioned that almost every fitting cart still included the N.S.Pro 950 despite its long outdated graphics. That was not the case with the N.S Pro 850. It had never been been widely present in the club equipment fitting carts. I have been fitting Nippon steel for a long time. In fact I wrote an overview of the entire N.S Pro product line 9 years ago in the second year of this journal.

Nippon Regio Formula Plus Driver Shafts Review

It has been 9 years since I looked at the first generation Nippon Regio Driver shafts. That review included only one of the three models. In this review, all three models were measured and compared. While Nippon is well know for their iron shafts, the driver shafts in the US are not popular. That is an understatement, they are virtually unknown. Over the last several years a few of my long term affiliated trainers and players have raved about their experience with the Regio Formula Plus driver shafts.

If you do not follow my YouTube Channel, Devoted Golfer, this is Mark Pekarek discussing the N.S. Pro Regio Formula + driver shaft designs:

As with all Nippon golf shafts, the quality and consistency of the Regio Formula Plus Shafts are second to none. They are all made in Japan, expensive, and reflect the attention to quality that we expect from Japanese made products.

Nippon Modus3 Tour 115 Golf Shaft Review

The Modus3 Tour 115 shaft is now available with the standard Modus3 chrome finish and is in the 2022 Mizuno fitting cart. We now have Nippon Modus3 shafts in 5 weights, 105, 115, 120, 125 and 130. It is important to note that these are more than simple weight options of the same design. The Modus3 120 and the Modus3 130 are radically different designs.
