Anybody still using Nicklaus MacGregor xp/70 irons?  i am thinking of putting the 7 8 and 9 onto graphite shafts to create a split set with newer modern cavity backs long irons.  Any issue with putting old blades onto new graphites?  These are on the orig. aluminums.

3W: Callaway Steelhead Xr  Tensei Blue CK 55 gram senior. TM Burner Superfast 3.0 M flex.

5W : Titleist TSi 1 on Aldila Ascent 40 regular flex.

Driving Iron: Mizuno MP 18 MMC 3 18 degree, on Mamiya Recoil reg flex.

4 iron:  forged Mizuno Fly-Hi, 24 degree hollow body.

6 - PW: Ping I 500, on Recoil reg flex.

Gap: 52/9 GFF Mizuno S5, Lob: 60/6 GFF Mizuno T7.

Sand: Ancien Regime 56/12 Hogan Sure Out, Apex shaft. Heavy sole.

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest!  Glad you joined us.

 

Two years ago I reshafted my Macgregor Tourney VIP 1025M blades.  The DG 300 stiffs were just too stiff for me now at age 71.  I installed UST ProForce Gold 95 in regular flex and soft-stepped one club.  Great feel and got my distance back.  Lots of great shaft options out there.  Best to go to a fitter to find what fits your swing.

 

Check the hosel diameter.

Welcome to the Forum! There are quite a few members who fiddle with clubs and will probably offer their thoughts.
