This weight class is also becoming more common among better players who realize they no longer need a 130 gram shaft to get stability. Nippon states that the untrimmed weight of the Modus 115 is 120 grams, which is similar to what I’ve been playing for the last several years. Because I felt like the Modus Tour 115 would let me do anything I wanted, hitting it became addictive. Knowing exactly what I’m going to get from the shaft, I can confidently make adjustments to hit different shapes and trajectories. What elevates it is the fact that it feels the same during almost any swing. Of course a shaft that’s going to handle high swing speed needs stability and lower torque, that’s a prerequisite. Nippon refers to the Modus Tour 115 as having a “simple” EI profile that “responds universally to the player’s intention.” That’s a much more interesting way of saying exactly what I found in my testing which is that this shaft does exactly what you want it to do.įor me, the consistency and shot-making capability of the Modus 115 is huge, and it’s equal parts specs and feel. This made me feel comfortable hitting all manner of shots with it. The Modus 115 can hold up to an aggressive swing, but it doesn’t compel you to swing all out. This combination of a Tour-style profile, mid-weight, and Nippon’s trademark smooth feel was outstanding for me. FeelĮvery Nippon shaft I’ve ever swung – and I’ve tried them all – has one thing in common: they’re smooth. Note: The in-hand photos in this review feature prototype graphics. Stickers peel off or bubble, but Nippon’s graphics always look perfect. Once those are gone, the standard chrome finish with red graphics will be available.Ī small thing that I’ve always liked about Nippon shafts is that they print their graphics on the shaft rather than using stickers. At release, there will be 2,020 sets offered in Luxury Black with silver graphics. The Modus Tour 115 has a couple different looks available, if you act quickly. To celebrate the 10th birthday of Modus, Nippon is adding a new model to the line: Modus Tour 115. With over 200 professional wins, a pair of majors, and Tour usage that grows every year, Modus is a proven winner.
A decade later, you can’t talk about the category without mentioning Modus. Introductionġ0 years ago, Nippon launched the Modus into the Tour-level steel shaft market that was absolutely dominated by two other brands. The Nippon Modus Tour 115 iron shaft is a great addition to the Modus family.
