Ian gets fitted for Graphite Shafts // Mitsubishi MMT 125TX

[@chachifeere]

even when matty boy comes back you guys should feature mikey on the channel. or start another txg fitting channel where mikey fits everyday customers that would be really good

[@clw22580]

The every day customer would be great. Of course optional consent needed.

[@MugzieMulligan]

Can I sign up to be the first!! @TXG 🤩

[@erikkiser6882]

I’d like to see video of the boys fitting customers with Ian and Matt commentating on what is going on and the reasons why the fitter is doing what he’s doing

[@briansator7491]

I support this. Love Matty. But would love more TXG content in general

What happens to Marty?

Great seeing Mikey help steady the ship to 150k for the boys!! 😎

I have these shafts MMT 105TX in a set of Apex Pro/Apex MB shafts and they are a pleasure to hit.The mishits aren't as punishing as they are with steel. Soft feel overall. Great video and Mikey is doing great!

[@the1mexicant]

That set up sounds so buttery I have the nippon modus 120 in my apex mbs 2018 version

Great work Mikey you’re getting better and better in front of the camera

[@c5jp904]

Gaming the MMT 70g in my PXG 0211s since last year. Find no fault in them at all. Really like them in the shorter clubs. And this old man is able to get 160 out of his 7 with great height and spin.

[@colethompson7236]

Just got done watching your fitting series and used a lot of information from them in my first ever club fitting. Love this channel and everyone at TXG

[@chadmacjack454]

I switched to these shafts this year and absolutely love it.

[@FF04RDF]

Good to see Mikey in front of camera for TXG..... every time you guys do a vid together it will get more and more comfortable 👍🏻👍🏻

I switched to the MMT 70 R flex in my irons and hybrid. Very happy with these shafts. Nice video.

[@kevinmcarthur2389]

I have moved back towards steel from Aerotech steelfibre to Nippon Neo shafts. Not convinced but will definitely have a look at these MMTs. Still swithering whether I made the right choice with Mizuno JPX901s whenever I see Ian and his Miura's

[@okolekahuna3862]

Ian, your swing is like buttah...effortless. beautiful.

I went with the Fuji pro graphite line in my cf 19 and the mci wedge shaft! Love them

[@wolfyand1]

lovely video again lads.

[@apologeticcanadian542]

I’m surprised we didn’t see TM P7MC’s in this video. If memory serves, you loved them in the initial review you guys did.

[@mastertoxophilite]

OH yes, this is the perfect way to start my morning. I just got the new PXG 2021 0211 with a regular MMT shaft for the same price of steel. My instructor told me that if it was the same price, there is little to no reason to go for steel instead other than the stigma that comes from playing graphite but tbh, I just want to have fun!

[@MM-zb9kc]

I love the MMT shafts. I have the 105TX and debated the 125TX as I switched from the DG X100’s. The weight of the X100’s (120) were closer to the 105TX than the 125TX but the lighter shafts is taking me a little bit to time the swing up. However I love the MMT’s as my shoulder and elbow joints hurt less after a round. That was the reason for the switch as I’m getting older.

[@adambarnes4191]

x100's are 130g.

[@MM-zb9kc]

@@adambarnes4191 I had the X100 120. Yes they also come in the 130 but I had the 120 shafts.

[@prestonflick5359]

I’ve been playing the TX (extra tipped) in my Miura TC-201s for over a year now. They are the best shafts for my arthritis, I’ve tried so many....

[@homegolfaustralia1078]

@@ESW206 he's apparently having some personal issues that are keeping him off screen. He comes across on screen as such a down to earth good bloke, I really hope he overcomes them and comes back to us soon.

[@kourt2469]

Been playing a 90 gram x stiff graphite shaft in my irons for 5 years now. Swing speed is on average 123mph with driver. I absolutely love them. Oversized grips as well and you can go play in freezing temps and your hands never hurt. Also I feel like they play stiffer than a 90 gram steel shaft.

[@Bob-hq5lj]

Your finish looks lovely Ian

[@zacharybouthillier6182]

Please make a video about bringing the CG forward on Max type head. Via lead tape or hot melt. That’d be very interesting, seeing the difference with the low spin models.

[@aaronconsaul6645]

Start and ending music- super super loud... fyi - you guys are the best

[@philharrison6791]

It makes sense that PGA Tour players are heading in that direction for there joints. Hit sooo many balls it will keep them in the game longer

[@map6592]

I love Mikey, but you need to check his pulse. He is the calmest dude I have ever seen lol. Great to see him in the recent vids

[@timmygolfs]

Awesome job Mikey!!

[@InsuranceSpecialist]

Ian getting his swing on!! Love it!

[@erikkiser6882]

Interesting what you said about the distance of a players iron. I was goofing around the other day at my golf coaches shop hitting a Henry Griffits T12. This is basically a blade which I have zero business hitting. It was longer than my 919 Forged and spin was hovering close to 6000 with a 6 iron. Really enjoyed hitting them

[@stecho0607]

swing is looking silky smooth ian!

[@whiskerrub]

I watched this and was disappointed Mikey had the opportunity to change THEGLASGOWRANGER to THEGREENMACHINE and didn’t ... I guess power doesn’t corrupt in all cases. 😂 Thanks I enjoy seeing TXG Staff on the channel it really does speak to how strong the TXG dynamics are and how they want to make your game better if you choose them to be your fitter. Thanks for the video keep up the hard work! 👍👍👍

[@JayCHales]

New to your channel. Must be 15+ years ago the owner of the golf course and range that I regularly used ask me to show up for a demo day. One of the company reps had me hit the exact same head in a stock steel shaft then their stock graphite shaft. From that day forward never will go back to a steel shaft in my irons. Olny sand and lob wedges have a steel shaft.

[@DavidSmith-lo7wf]

I know it was a video more focused on the shaft, but I was expecting some comment on the Cobra in relation to the others... Didn't catch any. Performance seemed pretty in line so just curious if it was a feel issue or something?

I'm glad this video was made. The last couple of years I've had wrist pain after golfing and found out that I'm getting carpal tunnel syndrome. I'm assuming graphite shafts are something I should be considering sooner than later?

[@keenanvanzile]

MMT shafts have performed well in all user reviews Im glad to see you gaming this Ian!!!! ... Do you know if there is significant difference between MMT 125s to 125tx? Im looking to be fit in either shaft for apex pro 21.

[@beedub1476]

I do most of my practice indoors off of a mat, do these decrease vibration enough to make a difference over time vs steel? I currently play KBS tour 125 s+, would I be 125s or 125tx in these?

[@MaczSoftware]

Yes they do

[@richarddegaris2267]

Would like a comparison with Aerotech shafts

Solid testing to be fair, all the irons performed great, graphite irons might potentially be the future

[@brentninedorf6617]

Nice choices to test out.

[@alldayrays7110]

Great seeing this, especially learning the amount of players putting this into play. Would be awesome to see this shaft compared on all blades, all CB’s or all players distance. Would it make much difference, or would the changes be proportionately the same vs say X100?

[@davidwilson1107]

I switched from PX 6.0 to Aerotech steelfiber i95 in my Z785s and have never looked back. Graphite is the way.

Adding your gamer 6 iron with the oban steel shaft would've been nice data to compare. Especially at the same weight

I would like to see the graphite design tour ad driving iron shaft being used as a baseline to others on the market. The 2020s come 110 all the way to 60g iirc.... but no one has really talked about them. pretty well known shaft in titleist driving irons, but otherwise ignored.

[@aaronconsaul6645]

I’ve been gaming the Accra shafts for over a year. Never going back to steel....

[@IMon503]

I saw a video the other week where Matt Wallace has extra groves in his irons to prevent flyers. Have you seen that? Also did your swing speed increase with the graphite shaft?

[@mvansb23]

Curious if there is something about the T100 that you didn’t like or if you are more focused on 2021 product?

[@ianfrasergolf]

I had a set last year Jim. But the Miura TC 201 stole my heart.

[@mvansb23]

@@ianfrasergolf I do recall that you and Matty both had them in the bag at some point. Was just curious if there was actually anything you didn’t like with the T100. Sounds like it was more about the Miura just being that little bit better for you. Also curious about the launch angle. It seems like there is a lot of focus by folks to get launch down to half the loft. So would have been more 15* in this test. I know you are a bit more of a shallow player. I’ve been really focused on that heuristic with my iron game. But it seems a bit unnatural to force them that low. 15 launch with 30 lofted iron is more of a knock down swing for me than a stock swing. I wonder if that half the loft thing is more for average swing speeds and not really feasible at higher speed. But then Trackman tour average with 6i is 14.1. And I have to believe average loft on tour is 30*. I have to work really hard to launch that low with 30* loft. Maybe tour guys just play with that much more shaft lean that us mortals.

[@jacobmccain8082]

@@mvansb23 Have learned to just embrace your swing. I'm on the other end of the spectrum as I average about 15* launch with my 33* 7i t100-S. Would love to launch it a bit higher but not at the expense of consistency.

[@banditbaker1675]

This might get me a ban or a Red Card, but those Miura's would look so good blacked-out when fitted on the MMT shafts! PS can we have a "Guess the blinks" section at the start of each Mickey vid? We could perhaps use it to raise money for local charities.

[@whiskerrub]

Red Card ... or Red Tees? 😂

[@banditbaker1675]

[@jacobmccain8082]

May try out the MMT in a club to see if I like them any better than my Aerotech 115s. But I really like my 115s so not sure they'll be any better. Do the Miura's feel softer on contact with MMT vs steel? My Aerotechs feel much softer at impact vs PXLZ.

[@krisdale5472]

Ian what was your thoughts on the Cobras? Didn't hear you speak to them directly.

[@dm4789]

I recently noticed that your dots on clubs for GCQuad may to be out of spec. According to the GCQuad manual, the middle dots are supposed to be between the 6th and 7th grooves. Is there a reason that you place these dots lower than that?

[@ianfrasergolf]

The CG is not on the 6th to 7th groove, that’s too high. The middle grooves are designed to represent the horizontal CG.

[@dm4789]

@@ianfrasergolf That is very interesting. How does moving the dots lower affect FSX’s data rendering/visualization of where the ball impacted the face? For instance, would 11mm high actually only be 5mm high, etc?

[@kyshapka]

Curious about going from Oban 125 stiff to those MMTs in 125 TX. Was there much a feel difference? Was it just due to speed gains? And are these replacing the old gamers? Curious bc I play the Oban 125 in stiff as well.

[@ianfrasergolf]

No speed gains. Shafts were the same weight. MMT’s were actually stiffer so no gains from deflection either.

[@ITS_BOBBY47]

The MMT as well as most graphite iron shafts have alot more torque than a comparable steel shaft. Doesn't that require better timing in the swing to square the clubface vs a low torque steel shaft?

[@ianfrasergolf]

Not in my testing. I hear far to many “Experts” advising golfers that lower torque offers a tighter shot dispersion, that’s just not true.

[@mzi2324]

during a fitting, does the setup of screwing the head into the shaft affect performance when compared to traditional attachment of head + shaft?

[@ianfrasergolf]

No, we make adjustments to the fitting heads to make sure there are no weight issues.

[@shanoneva]

What tis the profile like on the MMTs 105?

[@steve827]

I’ve got the 105TX but struggling with a light swing weight in my TCB … are they 125TX much stiffer ? As I know they will effect swing weight but interested if someone hs tried both and their fi dings

any lenght adjustment from x100 to mmt graphite shaft?

[@rawsick]

I want to get new clubs but I don’t know if I need steel regular or steel stiff. I’m good at golf but I do need lessons no doubt. I just want some good clubs first to then go an get lessons

[@Melchior11]

I’m curious about that dynamic lie issue. How much of that might be a result of the MMT rather than the Oban? Naturally, there’s a lot of other things that you might like about the MMT over the Oban, but it kinda seems like the MMT introduced a problem. Did you happen to test the Oban again off camera? I presume that you wouldn’t automatically adjust the lie on say your wedges if you don’t change shaft. Accurate? Disclosure: I play Oban, trying not to take this personal 🤪

[@BigAlby]

Those Miura sound like you are hitting the ball with a pillow.
