golfinnut Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 So in the sense of urgency, (well just because I didn't want to do a search) ..... I'm about to place an order for some irons. Yeah, most of you should know me by now what irons I'm talking about. LOL How many of you play KBS shafts in your irons? To be specific, the KBS 90 shaft? I want to get a general consensus on Yay or Nay. I've only hit them once & was comparing next to the PX LZ at the time. Numbers were fairly similar. With edge of lower flight going to the PX LZ, I can only assume because of the slight edge in stiffness profile. I dunno? That's why I come here. For the Spy's expert opinions. So .... fire away!

NCDuffer Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Play KBS 90’s. Like them a lot. As you noted launch is a touch higher, but I find their dispersion good.

Some folks say golf messes up a nice walk. That’s not true, golf makes a nice walk bearable. Link to comment
Larryd3 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I was previously fit into them and they worked well for me. I prefer modus 105 a little over them but if the KBS tour 90 were available quickly, I'd go for them. You can always switch out later on. golfinnut and MGoBlue100 2 Quote TM Sim2 Max 10.5 Ping G410 5 wood Ping G410 7 & 9 woods PXG Gen 5 0311P 5-gap PXG forged 54 & 58 wedges PXG Operator H w/ BGT Stability shaft Link to comment

GaDawg Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I think they are very good shafts, but personally I would get fit by comparing them to various different shafts. golfinnut 1 Quote Driver: TSI3 - 10*, Hzrdus Smoke 6.0 Stiff Driver: Stealth Plus - 10.5*, Oban Kiyoshi Purple O4Flex-65 Grams Purred 3 Wood: SIM - 15*, Graphite Design Tour AD DJ5 Stiff Hybrid: TS3 - 19*, Hzrdus Smoke 6.0 Stiff Irons: 5 - PW T150, with Nippon Zelos 7 Reg, 4 iron - U505 with Project X HZRDUS Black Stiff Wedges: Vokey SM 8 - 50*, 60* Standard Wedge Shafts Wedge: Milled Grind 3 MG3 56* S200 shaft Putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5 Putter: Phantom X 5.5 Ball: Pro V1x Link to comment
Tom the Golf Nut Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I have those shafts in my Sub 70 699 Pro's. I give them a thumbs up. golfinnut 1 Quote Driver, TSi 1 S Flex 3 wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 5 wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 7 Wood, Aerojet Max UST Helium Nanocore R Flex 5 Hybrid King Tec MMT R Flex Irons, Tour UST Recoil 95 R Flex (6 - Gap) Wedges, Snakebite KBS Hi- Rev2.0 54* & 60* Agera 35" Ultralight 14-way Cart Bag Link to comment
RickyBobby_PR Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I prefer the tour over the tour 90. If looking to go lighter shaft the tour 90 is a good option but after hitting them along with the dg105 and nipping 105 I would choose either of those first golfinnut 1 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment
