  1. Have a set of PRGR IS3 501 CBs?
  2. Got pointers as to the specs are you after?
  3. Geotech GDX Drivers. 450cc, carbon crown, conforming. Model approx 10 years old. Anyone know anything about them?
  4. Updated and some items added: 1) PRGR 2016 RS Driver 10.5 loft with Nippon NSPro Regio Formula MB 65X affixed to a PRGR "-1" adaptor; plays at approx 45.5". It has been butt trimmed only to length. Red Star Sindewinder grip. Includes a new "-1" adaptor and ferrule, and a used "+1" adaptor without ferrule. 460cc. Finally, includes a leather limited edition Links and Kings headcover (2015 Open at St Andrews). The head is in very good nick with minimal playing marks to the sole; the shaft is in excellent condition; grip is new; headcover is nicely worn in and undamaged. Sits square to open and has a slight draw bias. A powerful weapon in the right hands. $300 plus shipping for the lot. $250 plus shipping without the headcover. 2) Onoff driver .335 adaptor shim and 2 spare Onoff ferrules. This is the Onoff shim that is required for reshafting certain Onoff drivers. Probably fits certain fairways too. Unused. $5 plus shipping. Must be useful to someone. 3) Srixon Z525 Driver 10.5 with Miyazaki Kena Blue "Tour Issue" 6S shaft. Midsize Golf Pride Corded Z-Grip. 460cc. Matching Headcover. Torque wrench with weight kit and Srixon blurb. Playing length is 45.5". The head is in good nick with some playing marks and scratches to the sole. Shaft is in excellent condition. Grip is good. Headcover is showing signs of wear. Torque wrench encloses spare 3g and 11g weights. Currently two 7g weights are fixed on the head. Sits square. A solid performing driver with a smaller footprint and deeper face - a "player's" look at address. This was a Japan only release. $100 + shipping 4) Fourteen MR23 US Spec CBs. Heads Only. Very good condition with only the odd small ding. Not sure I want to sell these, so if you want them, you'll have to persuade me! PM with offers if interested. No trades at this stage. Transact via Paypal. Shipping is from the UK, PM for quote. Pics will be in posts below.
  5. Longest drives were with a specialist LD competition driver - SMT DB455 5 deg with an Accuflex Tantrum XX @ 48". Not something I'd be able to handle these days. For normal play, and this is just too funny, a Kamui Works Ray 9.5 with an Aldila Protopype 60x @ 46". Yes this was Ian's head, mentioned above, that shuttled back and forth between the two of us! The other club that tied it was a MacGregor MT460 8.5 (same model as Greg Norman's driver from the 2008 Open that he placed 3rd in at 53 years old) and also shafted with the Protopype. I strongly suspect that the MT460 had Japanese roots, as per the Mactec line that preceeded it. However, unlike the Mactec line, it had a plush feel and nice sound not unlike the Kamui. Have only tried one non-conforming driver, a small old Yamaha head that must have been between 300 and 350cc, probably nearer 300. Cannot remember the model name. It was shafted with a XX Fineone T3 @ 47". Despite the butt stiffness, the thing was like a noodle at the tip. Most drives were pretty ordinary and it was tough to time the strike. However, when you hit a particular spot on the face, the hit sounded totally different - like a high pitched whip crack or rifle shot. The sound and feel was so different to the other hits with the driver that you could have been hitting a different driver. First time it happened, I thought I'd cracked the face or something. Anyway, when you hit that spot, the ball flight was also different. The thing just left with speed and kept going - easily 30yds more carry than just missing that spot. I think the head was just a freak and probably not typical of your usual Hi-Cor heads, because you shouldn't see such a step up in performance from a mm or two difference in strike.
