  1. Oh man, that bag. So cool.
  2. Sorry, didn't like it. I'm old school. You can spot that Disney acquired ownership of Star Wars.
  3. Iomic 2.3, can't beat those. Amazing feel.
  4. Price drop!!! These babies need to move. Already eyeballing something else.
  5. Since I changed my bag setup, I think it’s time to sell 3 wedges I’m not using and some other stuff that’s just lying around. They are high quality forged Japanese wedges so it’s a waste to leave them in lying around the house not being used. These three are all $200 a piece wedges. Asking half the price each, is I think a fair deal. So $100 a piece, ex shipping. The first one: ($OLD) Fourteen 2009 MT-28 V4 Forged Wedge *Loft : 48/6, *Shaft : NS Pro 950GH Wedge Flex Original Fourteen grip Second one: ($OLD) Kyoei Zestaim Io Grind Forged Wedge *Loft : 52/10, *Shaft : NS Pro 950GH Regular Flex Black Widow grip Last but not least: Epon 208KGX *Loft : 60/11 *Shaft : NS Pro 950GH Stiff Flex Original Epon grip I also got a Vega T.50MB forged by Kyoei iron 6 club head. Had big plans with it, but I never did anything with it. It’s brand new. Any one who is interested in this piece, just let me know. Last thing that needs a new home is a Honma PF 3 iron with a NS Pro 950GH Stiff Flex shaft. Almost like new. Let me know if it’s your piece of cake. Shipping international will be approx. between $33 and $40 depending on the type of shipment world wide.
  6. Hey everyone. I’m selling my Gauge Design 10th Anniversary CB irons, 4-PW, shafted with N.S. Pro 1050GH Stiff shafts. Forged in Japan they came on the market halfway 2009. The company only made 25 sets of these (talk about limited edition). Loft: 4 – 25, 5 – 28, 6 – 32, 7 – 36, 8 – 40, 9 – 44, P – 48 The shafts, Nippon N.S. Pro 1050GH STIFF, are brand new. The Sticky Blacks with yellow cap grips from Iomic are brand new as well. As you can see on the photos the heads are used. Just took them to the range twice, very sweet, but a bit too valuable as a second set. Asking $SOLD plus shipping Or make me an offer, I can't refuse. Paypal only Please email me if you want bigger or more pictures

    My Bag

    That's a nice set of clubs you got there. The Yururi putter and wedges are pure porn... Great! And your OnOff bag looks awesome.
  8. Hi GTI/TSG crew, I thought it would be nice to post my bag for this coming season. Last year I kicked all my Titleist clubs out of my bag. Replaced the 909 D Comp driver for the Alpha C830-4 9.5. Also the Titleist 909h had to go. No feel or sound at good impact what so ever. I replaced it with the Nakashima NX1 22*. IMO a much better hybrid. And the Scotty Cameron Circa 62 was sold to a guy who just couldn't understand why a Seemore DB4 putter would perform better than the Scotty. Actually, it's me, and what is going on between my ears. Not the putter. To be honest, I just wanted the Seemore DB4. Last year I also got fitted for the Mizuno MP63's. But after a couple of rounds a damaged my 8 iron, somewhere on the course during bad weather (which we get a lot here in the Netherlands). So I decided to keep those, but now I had an excuse to get an extra set for fall/winter. Got a set of Gauge design '10th Anniversary' heads and got them shafted with Nippon NS-Pro GH1050 stiff shafts and Iomic Sticky black/yellow grips. And WOW!!! I've done some training sessions with them and two rounds and I think the MP63's will get a hard time to get back into my bag. One thing I like about my set up is that most people in the Netherlands don't have a clue where all these brands come from. Most people are only familiar with the US brands, which on the other side is a pity as well. I'm just addicted to Japanese made forged irons/wedges and the rest. Here are some pics. Enjoy... Alpha C830-4 9.5 - Pured UST Proforce Axivcore 79 stiff shaft (Lamkin Crossline grip) Maruman F3 Shuttle 15* (Golf Pride New Decade Multicompound Cord grip) Tourstage 2008 ViQ Fairway Wood 19* Nakashima NX1 22* - Pured Fujikura TOUR SPEC Speeder 904HB (Iomic Opus Art red/white grip) Gauge Design '10th Anniversary' (4-9) - Nippon NS-Pro GH1050 stiff shafts (Iomic Sticky black/yellow grips) Fourteen MT28 V4 48* wedge - Nippon NS-Pro GH950 stiff shaft (Fourteen grip) Kyoei Zestaim 52* wedge - Nippon NS-Pro 950GH stiff shaft (Black Widow white Tour Silk grip) Scratch 1018 Forged 56* wedge - Nippon NS-Pro 1050GH stiff shaft (Iomic Sticky orange grip) Epon 208KGX 60* wedge NS-Pro GH950 stiff shaft (Epon grip) Seemore DB4 putter (Iomic white putter grip) OnOff OB0010 Shingo Katayama limited Tour Bag
  9. Well idrive, I trust your experience fully on this matter, so I'm seriously going to consider the Tourstage. With a R flex shaft. I have to check though with TSG if it is possible to re-grip the shaft, since I use double tape, midsize grips. (I had to get the Honma and Maruman re-gripped.) Everybody, thanks a lot. I appreciate it. As soon as I got it I'll let all of you know how it goes.
  10. You are a great help... but there is so much to choose from and unfortunately I can't try anything upfront. I think I might narrow the list down to these 3 brands/types. Yamaha 2009 Inpres X D-fw - 5 wood 19* Fourteen 2008 SF308 FW - 5 wood 18* Tourstage 2008 ViQ FW - 5 wood 19*
  11. Driver swing speed is pretty fast. I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but two pro's asked me when I'm going to ditch the graphite Ignites and get some steel ones. I launch the ball not low, but definitely not too high. What kind of ball flight? Beats me. I reckon directly straight towards the target. So no hooks, pulls or draws and other things.
  12. Thanks everybody for your quick and honest input. Well, it's pretty clear than. A 5 wood it is. So let's see, what do we have... Yamaha 2009 Inpres X D-fw - 5 wood 19* Fourteen 2008 SF308 FW - 5 wood 18* Tourstage 2008 ViQ FW XXIO 2008 FW Beres MG713 Tour Edge Exotics XCG woods Maruman Shuttle FW That's a lot of FW's to choose from. And what about the shaft? Any specific things I should take in to account?
  13. Thanks for your reply idrive... I don't realy care about the looks of the hybrid. I already have the 3hybrid that comes with the Nike Ignite set, but I was only getting around a 165 yards out of it. I was hoping to gain more out of the Titleist, which actually happened. But not as frequent as I would like. So I thought, let's swap it for a hybrid that's suit me more. But yes, I do get along with my 3 wood. It's much more controllable for me, but than again, it has a bigger head.
