Close I’d say.

I don't know when Tourspec became a verification site. It is not really possible to verify based on the pics you've sent. Do you have reasons to think they are fake? However, they are 17 years old and would not fetch a particularly high price regardless.

Not an expert by any means on the Beres line. But comparing these to official Honma pictures, the paint fill look quite sloppy on yours. By these pics only I'd say they look closer to the 348 USD sets you can buy at Aliexpress. I could hardly tell if it said IS-08 och IS-06. On the real ones it is super clear. But again - I'm not an expert and could be wrong.

LOL - 17 years later 😂

My bad!

I played a GP before and really liked it. Had a Diamana X 70-s in it. Low rocket launcher. It was a ehite head with a black face. Not sure what model. Dif they make an AAA in 2014? Thought they were 2013/2015/2017 etc. I loved the 2015 one and hsted the 2017.

Have fun, shoot in the 70’s and tip your caddies well 😁

Whoever said it was the world champion (as Americans calls the winners in the ”world series” etc - now that’s a joke)? It is ”Champion golfer of the year” which related to the champion of The Open Championships. I think you interpret it wrong. And yes, links is how golf started. It is about imagination, skill, hitting the ball low, knowing where to bounce, knocking it down etc. Do you seriously believe that the luckiest player won The Open, or the best player for the week? Certainly, some golfers who are used to play on soft courses with perfect lies and greens where you can fly the ball to the pin with a 3-iron will have to adjust a bit. Anyway - I think it was great that Harman won it. He did it in style. I would have loved more competition on the Sunday but his performance was stellar!

”Champion golfer of the year” is true. Not sure why you think differently.

Wow

I’ve had that too. Won it here in the forum in some contest Chris had. Great shaft!

I had the Quadra in a macked out Golds with shell casings, weights all over, pz-milling etc. It felt horrible. Tell me how a pz-milled 001 feels clicky? To me it was crap.

It is interesting with moving the weight around. I still have my first Gold’s PS2. Unfortunately I had it refinished by TSG in boron black. The original finish was so much better. Had the original Gold’s shaft in it, then upgraded to an expensive steel shaft sold by TSG back when, can’t remember the name, felt very little difference. But then I put a Nippon XXIP-D2 in it (149 grams) and it felt like cheating. I had (have) a standard size Iomic grip and it was juslt like the putter was an extension of my arms. So good! Now I find the head too long and the putter too big. About to get a Nordberg putter shipped my way. A small blade with a black chrome Nippon coming in at 135 grams I think. We’ll see how it plays.

If you would have looked 4 threads down:

I have a TiNi Proto 2013 in 60s in my Baldo Brassie. Super smooth. I hit it high. Very workable. I should have tipped it a bit more to be able to control the height better, but I don't mind it one bit this way. Think of it as a Diamana Blue with a touch of Red.

Great head. Used to play it. Rocket.

Before buying - make sure you see a picture of the Flightscope and a piece of paper with the seller’s screen name. There was a guy who tried to sell a Trackman a while ago - complete fake.

These are really nice!

Nice!

No, the back issues comes from having had a wife that has several horses. Fencing, cleaning stalls etc etc is the real killer. Good thing I'm outa there but still kills my back.

Just got the Jbeam head. Have not shafted it. The Vanquish feels very good. Tight and not at all floppy/flimsy as other very light weight ahafts. The 5X is about 58 grams. Easy to control draw/fade and loves to just go straight. Would never have guessed that it is more than 4* torque. More like 2.5. My issue is that I don’t think I get any distance. Have not put it on a launch monitor so I don’t know what the issue is. Have too as soon as I get back to golf. My back is out for the next couple of weeks.

Well - I’m perfrctly happy with my Modus 115. Never hit a graphite iron shaft that feels good, apart from driving iron shafts. I think it is due to the reachtion I get when hitting down on the ball and taking divots. Stiffer graphite ahafts have felt dead to me, softer/lighter are all over the place. But again - I’m sure there are shafts that perform fab. Graphite should be easier to nail down the specs on to fit perfectly. I just have not explored too much and don’t feel the urge to either. Yet. Agree with Mikey on the ugly part. Since the Swix shafts of the early 90’s I’ve not seen good looking iron graphite shafts.

LOL! No you did not. I'm sure you watch TV too and there are pretty much 0 players on the PGA Tour with graphite in their irons. I've tried Steelfiber (hated them) - that's it. I'm sure there are nice ones out there from Accra, Mitsu, Roddio etc but I'm not there yet.

In Stew’s basement 😎

As mentioned, I have Modus 115 in my irons and the 125 wedge in my wedges. The 130 S is also awesome in wedges. I need a little more heft there for the touchy-feely shots around the greens. My touch is questionable regardless tbh.
