I am looking to buy new irons but do not have a fitting location close by. I was hoping you might be able to give me advice on iron shafts that would fit my swing. The following data is an average from 10 swings with my current 7 iron, ping I20, kbs tour 120 s shaft. Thank you.
carry – 174
total distance – 177
ball speed – 118
club speed – 91
spin – 4730
height – 91
Generally speaking, the numbers would indicate an S or even a X flex, depending on the ball flight and feel you are looking for. The question I would ask is why are you looking for new iron shafts? Do the KBS 120 Tour S not feel solid, or do not give the trajectory you are looking for? Some kind of direction on what trajectory (high, medium, low) or feel (stiff, firm, medium, soft) you are looking for would at least give some direction on the general characteristics you should be looking for in the shaft.

Depends on what kind of performance, feel and distance you are looking for.
Would be interesting to see how those numbers could be improved; also not knowing type of irons your using. Good Luck!
