Nippon Modus 105 Swing Speed Chart – [Choose The Right Flex]

Nippon Modus 105 shafts are one of the most used shafts among tour players. Therefore, it’s pretty clear that these shafts are not for beginners or slow swingers.

Unfortunately, Nippon doesn’t provide any official swing speed chart so that players can choose the right flex. To help you with this, here’s a general Nippon Modus 105 Swing Speed Chart:

• Nippon Modus 105 is available in three different flex options: Regular, Stiff, and Extra Stiff. If your swing speed with a 6- or 7-iron is within 75 to 85 mph range, you should go for the regular shaft.
• Most experienced golfers have a swing speed of 85 to 95 mph. For those with such medium-level swing speeds, stiff flex is the perfect choice.
• Finally, for tour players and professionals with swing speeds higher than 95 mph, I recommend the extra-stiff Nippon Modus 105 shaft.
• Apart from your swing speed, you must consider your swing tempo, feel and weight of the shaft, and your skill level while choosing the right shaft for you.

In short, fast swingers should pick stiffer shafts whereas slow swingers will do best with more flexible options.

Nippon Modus 105 Swing Speed Chart for Shaft Flexibility

A flexible shaft bends more in response to the applied force. Nippon Modus 105 has 3 flexibility options: Regular (R), Stiff (S), and Extra Stiff (X). Depending on your swing speed, here’s what you need to choose when it comes to flexibility:

Regular Flex (75 to 85 MPH)

Suitable for a wide range of golfers, Regular (R) flex is the best option for moderate swing speeds. Nippon Modus 105 R flex weighs 103g, so it’s not very suitable for entry-level players.

As it’s the most flexible option, the shaft has a softer feel, and it transfers maximum energy at Impact.

Stiff Flex (85 to 95 MPH)

When your swing speed increases, you need a stiffer flex to reduce clubface rotation and twisting. Therefore, golfers with 85 to 95 mph swing speed should pick the Stiff (S) flex for better control. However, this shaft is heavier than many stiff shafts, weighing 106.5g.

Extra Stiff Flex (95 MPH+)

The stiffest flex option, Nippon Modus 105 extra stiff shafts are designed for golfers with the fastest swing speeds (over 95 mph). Weighing 112g, this shaft is perfect for those who hit the ball a long way but struggle with control.

Other Factors to Consider While Choosing Your Nippon Modus 105 Shaft Flex

Apart from swing speed and skill level, you need to consider a few other factors to get the right fit for your playing style. Here are the details:

Shaft Weight

A heavier shaft feels more stable but requires more effort to swing. They provide more accuracy if your swing speed is high.

On the other hand, a lighter shaft feels easier to swing but lacks stability and accuracy for slow swingers. This is why Stiff and Extra Stiff Modus 105 shafts are heavier than the Regular flex ones.

Swing Tempo

If you have a slow and smooth swing, a lighter shaft with a more flexible Regular will be a better fit. It allows you to load and unload more easily during your swing for better timing and feel.

Golfers with a fast or aggressive swing should choose Stiff or Extra Stiff shaft flex to maintain control and consistency.

Feel of the Shaft

While testing the flex options, always notice how the shaft responds during the swing. If you prefer a more solid and crisp feel for better feedback, go for the Stiff or Extra Stiff flex option.

For a softer feel that provides more forgiveness on mishits, Regular flex will be a more suitable option.

in our final verdict to Nippon Modus 105 Swing Speed

As a general rule, amateur slow swingers should go for Regular flex, whereas mid-level and fast swingers need stiffer shafts. While the Nippon Modus 105 sewing speed chart provides the most accurate data regarding the flex options, there might be some exceptions.

For example, even if you are an average or quicker amateur, a stiffer shaft can suit your swing style more than a regular shaft. Therefore, make sure you test all three flexibility options and go for a professional golf club fitting to get the right match for you.
