I have a set of Nippon 950GH S shafts and want to soft step them. The ball flight with the Nippons are already fairly high, how much will the ball flight change when soft stepping the shafts?

ball flight may go a bit higher if you soft step them

Lets make it simple. Pull the shafts from your four iron and your 5 iron.
Put the shaft from your 4 iron into the head of your 5 iron. Put several wraps of a half inch tape around the end of the grip. so now the inside (head side) of this tape is now 5 iron length/ Go hit it and see if it makes a material difference in height. You tell us.

The change is imperceptible.

Beware, if the shafts were pulled from an OEM set, there's a big chance they're already soft-stepped.
