Think this maybe the first time I have ever seen a head being fitted for a shaft instead of the traditional approach!, this is why TXG are the best around.......
Since I play m5 I always rooted for Matty to put it in the bag too.... can’t argue with the current lst and ventus black setup, but whenever Matt hits m5 he destroys the ball and pretty darn accurate
Perfectly said Matt (+Ian) .......
My quest in the last six years was to find the driver head and shaft flex-stiffness combo that produces a swing weight that allows me to swing&strike my best........ I'm close now, but geez I wish I lived next door to your studio!!...... Save time and money and all......
Possibly the most insightful video you guys have done cos it just so clearly illustrates the importance of the shaft & head combo
Would love to see kbs continue to expand on the options available in graphite. They already have a great product and reputation to back it up!
#TXG #POWERFUL #ELONFRASER
yeah, feel like they are missing out on a huge market.
Hi Guys, I'm pretty new to the channel, but as someone who's preparing to get fitted after lessons this channel is amazing. I feel like I'm going to have so much more going into the fitting in December. A couple things I will ask, could y'all do a video on the performance difference between a game improvement iron and a driving iron of the same loft? Also could y'all do some Ben Hogan testing?
Great example to show people that it's not just the shaft and not just the head. As always, great video!
Thank you for the video! I’m currently rehabbing shoulder surgery #2 and in a few weeks when I start swinging, the shaft I’m expecting to seriously consider is this new KBS graphite.....in M5 head. Again, thanks and great video like always.
I love my S-Tapers, so good to see some of the commentary on feels. Also, props some of the technical know-how presented with swing weights, shafts matching to certain heads and not to others, and the impacts on contact and ball flight.
Looking forward to their version of the stability shaft
It would be cool if you guys pick a popular shaft as a baseline and compare these lesser known shafts to something we may have already tried. For instance, I play the Tor AD DI 6x, but it's a bit spinny for me. I don't have the luxury of having a place near me that has hundreds of shafts to try, so when I buy a new shaft I have to base it on reviews and comparisons to other shafts I've tried.
Ian, when you get to 60K subs will you please say “they may take our lives, but they’ll never take... OUR FREEDOM!” Love the channel, guys!
You guys should order different gram sole weights (10-18g) for the driver to adjust swing weight in fittings.
I watch this channel so much I’m more familiar with Mattys swing and numbers than my own
Nippon also offers Graphite shafts that are fantastic . N.S. Pro Regio Formula B matches the profile of the Modus Tour 120.
Interesting shaft indeed. Thanks for the video guys.
Not exactly about this video but I really noticed it for this some reason in this video. It looks like Matty has a great weight transfer though his swing. Would it be possible to do a video with Matty hitting balls while standing on a pressure plate or something similar and talk about how weight transfer would effect a fitting? Maybe too much about teaching/instruction (bring Larry in for a video!) but would be an interesting video.
Tyler Grove Larry coming in this Monday to do just that!!
Ian Fraser what perfect timing! When will we get to see that video?
M5 sounds amazing!!
Waiting for the glue to dry in my new KBS driver shaft and M5 head!
Matt hits it like a hammer!!!! 👍
It suprised me with the weight in the tip. I like the feeling with any club of heavy head so an iron shaft like that could help me
Would love to see the paderson kinetix range tested. I was fit for a kinetix launch and am interested in your thoughts and options that may be similar
Coming soon
Dammm!! Love the analysis you guys make. Very smart and interesting 👌🏻
Love the channel guys!! But.... Disappointed you have so much gear but haven't bought Ping G410 weights. They are on ebay. 4g - 20g. Around $8 each. Easy fix :)
Interesting, i play KBS graphite shafts in my hybrids...are they head heavy as well?
I play an E0 swing weight in a Paderson shaft/Epic SZ 3 Diamond but it works for me.
Hi guys I’ve got a swing speed around 100 mph have g410 lst would I game this shaft! as it’s not suitable for Matty in g410 please b4 you say get fitted I don’t trust any pga pros where I’m from they just wanna sell you anything!! love your channel and your knowledge relating to fitting is unreal wish I lived in Canada ✈️ I’d pay a premium knowing you wouldn’t rip any1 off keep up the great work 👍🏌🏻♀️🏌🏻♀️🏌🏻♀️
Matt eat his wheaties this morning? Ive been interested in KBS iron shafts for a while now. Great video!
What was the weight of the original driver head? And what was the weight of the lighter head?
Another great video guys. Ian I have a quick question, In your opinion is there a big difference between the KBS C Taper 120 Stiff and the DG 120 X100. I launch the ball very high with a lot of spin with my 120 X100 and was thinking to change to C Taper. I have an aggressive transition and tend to miss as many left as i do right, I saw that in another video you said C Taper is great for dispersion, also if I switch to C taper what shaft do you thing would be a good choice for my wedges. Thanks Ian your a legend :)
People only need to look at the fight patterns of the fist set, see the changes made, then the new flights, to realize who the best in the business is.
Would have been interesting to lead tape the second club up to E0 and see if it then acted like the first one.
Wonder what will happen if the weight on the G410 LST is removed to get to a lower Swing weight? Or try this shaft on a Cobra (off the rack head)?
How does this compare to rip alpha. Would you say it's similar
Looks like the old UST Harmon tour design shafts.
Do you happen to know the head weight of the Mizuno ST200 G ?
Thanks
I liked the info...do you folk have a MOI measuring device? Rather than Swing Weight? MOI provides a scientific measurement as SW is really very old school...just sayin'...
How much are they?
Vivito IsRight around $325 USD
@@ianfrasergolf wow, companies are really out of reality. Thanks for the info
I really need a proper fitting!
Will you be doing a review on the new diamana zf?
likely yes
Is this for high swing speed player of can a person that swings 95 use and get the same results
they have different weights and flexes for different swing speeds
Just found your vids. Love them.
Club fitting here in Aus SUCKS! We have Drummond golf that uses 'My Swing' tech, but very limited equip. Some other fitters but they are manufacturer biased and we have demo nights but they are crowded and not personalised. I had to essentially do my own club fitting by trialling every club on the market that was suited to my swing (and then some that weren't) and what ever shafts I could get my hands on that matched the fitting heads. Was a long painful process but I think worth it in the end.
Would LOVE to try a KBS shaft in my driver (Currently using a Matrix Red Tie 55g S), as I use the KBS C-Taper Lite S in my irons and love them, but I doubt anyone would have the range or knowledge that you have.
What I would have given to be fitted out by you.
Cool clubs or pureform both fit to TXG specs. Sydney or Melbourne
Wonder why you just didn’t take the 12g weight out the Ping to begin with ? Cool video though 😎
just for fun, we hit the G410 a lot on the channel
Copy that 😎
Mr Fraser I mean this in nicest way your a freak! No wonder people want to experience TXG! Matty get permission from Trace and mic him up we have to prove he sleep talks numbers shafts and club heads. 👍
Seems like a more extreme version of an Accra tz5
I wanna see you swing oban driver shafts. White,pro, black.
darn it i was almost first
I can relate. I played with the Cobra F9 with Tour Ad shaft for 10 months without knowing that the swing weight was D6.5. I had good days and some really terrible games playing with it. Had it corrected to D3.5 and the difference is night and day for me.
Just love the look of that KBS Driver shaft, it looks stunning in Red & Black!!!!
If it feels as good as the graphite shafts that I have in my Irons, they will have a real Winner on their hands!
You were talking about torque in this video could that be another video talking point to see the difference between high torque and low torque shafts with driver?
The graphic on the shaft looks nice!
Wow. That was insightful to physically see getting the swing weight correct and how it instantly righted the ship! Not surprised that KBS made a good offering out of the gate. I think KBS will be to wood shafts what Mizuno and Srixon are to drivers...everyone knows them for the irons and get often overlooked. I game the KBS Prototype in my hybrid and love it as well as the $-Taper in my irons. GREAT REVIEW!
You got the best videos. Well lemme put it like this I really appreciate your videos the most
Has Matt ever tried reducing his hip sway in the backswing?
Noticed that as well. He sways a lot but hammers it, so maybe not an issue for him?
it's a drill, trying to work out the over rotation and falling onto front foot
Watch his vids with Larry. They are awesome.
@@clubchampionmedia over rotation of what?
hips
I swear by my KBS C-Taper S+...... can't wait to test this shaft as well!! Great work boys..... as always love the content
Ping was at D9? LOL! Like swinging Thors hammer.
What a great video. And the sound of that M5 KBS shaft head was amazing. Matty is truly gorgeous
Wow. To a guy with an untrained eye, like myself, it looked night and day from the Ping to the m5. I didn’t even need to see the data.
Injured finger my rear?!!🤣🤣 Solid bud🔥🔥
Another great video. I learn something every time.
Most concentric shaft I have every tested. Can be put in any orientation without concerns about soft or hard sides.
W
that's great to hear from a home builder who has no ability to test that kind of thing
A follow up on this Video/ Shaft.
I have Paired this with the Corba LTDX 9° Head and it's a Monster.
I use the Category 5 7X
I went for Sub 275 low high spinning balls when using Ventus Blue and Black 6 and 7 X
To a Higher Launch at about 16/18° and Spin right around 2100RPM
Ball is Traveling on Average 280 on the Fly with some of my bigger shots in the Upper 290+ range.
I really enjoy these videos and in Information I receive from them.
Keep up the good work guys.
From a balance point standpoint, how does this compare to the C-Taper Lite iron shafts? Just got fitted for those in the MMC’s and love them. Great content as always!
How is Matt’s elbow feeling? I went to the range after 2 months off due to golfer’s elbow, and the pain is back. Not sure if it’ll ever go away.
Iv only been playing golf for 2 months but love your vids would love a full bag club fitting with you guys
Ive heard that some people are more sensitive to change in total weight than in swing weight, any truth to that or just a "Forum claim" lol
Ian / matty.....I have the callaway epic speed head...is this a heavy head like the ping or middle of the road please
Are the difference between a X shaft and a TX shaft, just as big as the difference between S and x?
Any chance at seeing a review of the Hogan Ft. Worth irons or GS53 woods?
Why didnt you just put a lighter weight in the g410?
What do you guys charge for a full bag fitting ?
Sound with the M5 is amazing
want one!
The obvious question: for those of us who play KBS Tour in our irons, will this shaft feel like a logical transition?
feel should be familiar, but wouldn't assume it'll be a good fit without testing
Looks good
crazy how inefficient the first combo was. swinging at 121 but only getting a ball speed of 172.
obviously I say "only" lightly because its relative
Always a question would you actually game that shaft?
maybe, worked well in the M5
What’s the overall weight of the KBS shaft?
63g
What types of players would you say it would benefit? Also, is it going to be a go to if you want players to generate a little more speed through a lighter head?
would be a good match to a lighter clubhead to get the swingweight in a good spot
@@clubchampionmedia Awesome! What was the swing weight in the M5?
