Nippon Modus 105 Regular Vs Nippon Modus 105 Stiff

The following comparison overview covers the main differences between the Nippon Modus 105 in regular and stiff flex.

Nippon Modus 105 Regular Shaft Overview

“The Nippon Modus 105 in regular flex weighs 103 grams.”

The Nippon Modus 105 regular is a lightweight steel shaft with a definite kick near the midsection.

That’s not to say it’s jerky or unstable. Instead, it is remarkably consistent even at a 103g weight point.

Compared to the Nippon Modus 105 stiff though, the regular flex buckles a bit under heavy loads – yielding higher launch and spin rates that don’t favor faster swingers.

Nippon Modus 105 Stiff Shaft Overview

“The Nippon Modus 105 in stiff flex weighs 106.5 grams.”

The 3.5 extra grams of weight makes more difference than you would think. It feels a bit more stable even when I was swinging for the fences.

And my spin rates were considerably lower. As a result, my dispersion was tighter.

The Nippon Modus 105 in stiff flex also feels noticeably stabler on faster swings than in regular flex.

“Stronger swingers will want to stick with the Nippon Modus 105 stiff. But if you need more lift on most of your approaches, the Nippon Modus 105 in regular flex is a good option.”
