  1. You mean the quacks. Just close your eyes mate and visualise.
  2. Thanks Nobs. It does sound good. Look good. Feel good. Isn't the old saying.....If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...? Might have to pull the trigger.
  3. Hey Nobs. 115 are good mate. How’s that Cally 3w…First time for ages I have looked at a US brand 3w and really liked how it sits/looks at address. I have a max q fairway shaft I was thinking of sticking in one and giving a go.
  4. Nothing mate....Sounds like you have it all worked out.
  5. Sounds like fun mate. Nothing better than a good time with your kids. Yes she just picked up a trailer to go tramping around the UK. Something I did many moons ago. The UK has some great spots from honey pot lane to pirates of Penzance. I never did GC only Tenariffe and Ibiza. I lived in Spain for a while, great for my golf game. Marbella has some special courses. I’m from Hexham and played Slaley Hall a few times. Another great course.!
  6. I’m gaming the CBI 80 limited. Around 110 in X. They are based on the stiff flex at 100g…..The best graphite shaft I have used.!….These love a punch type attack of the ball. Hands forward. Give it to the ball. These are a swing my swing jam in at the ball type shaft. If you think you are a modus 125, rifle 6.5. Shimada tour. These are the graphite for you. I’m gaming the previous version of the current model in the pro shop with the 14 limited. Strong lofts but I have no problem with that. 14 heads are a unusual type soft, we usually judge everything by Epon frozen butter. My opinion of these is Benock putter type soft. Very distinctive. Addictive. With these shafts? First time I will game and iron for more than 6 months. 🦆
  7. Mate I remember everything. Sure you were looking at the 101 at some point. Not sure you are doing yourself justice with that. I still love using my 4.6. HVe you used one lately.? Fark it’s such an addictive driver.
  8. Either way, lots to say about why and how. But this is not the forum for that. How was the night Ian? Few beers and euro. Lol. What was that euro show we used to get on Chanel 4. f**king funny! My oldest daughter is in the UK. Just got her first trailer. Loving life.
  9. Maybe you didn’t pick them up. 😊 Have to say though… These older irons are pretty darnn close to the current offering.!
  10. You had a set of KP-101 way back Ian if I remember rightly. Thinking of picking a set up or already have.? They look nice. Forgiving. Could be a bit bouncy in dry conditions with the wide sole. Unless the leading edge has be killed.
  11. Bottom line is we are all missing the reviews and pics.
  12. I wonder if it translates the same to how may other languages TSG sells to ? I guess you cant please everybody everywhere all the time. Especially if the the original version of the website is Japanese based? Or written by someone who is Japanese, then translated to all the other languages in the world. Is this a Japanese based website for Japanese based gear? That is an outrage...lol
  13. Everything limited but the glue on this set…inc the Ferrules that came with the heads.🤓
  14. In play today up against the 22 Corsa with modus 115. Only used the 5 Iron in the Corsa so not a full test of those. 1st thoughts on the Fourteen with Crazy CBI in X 110g range are positive. Playability wise the shafts sit IMO in between Shimada tour lite and the Shimada tour. Feel is better. Timing will take a few rounds adjustments. But a great matchup all the same. 14 heads are very easy to use..looks at address are minimum offset with nice top line. Sort of narrow in the neck of the face, look a touch longer heel to toe a bit like the Epon SUS. Feel on these is great. They are a really well balanced head, the lofts have only added around 5m extra on each club comparing with a CB…... Corsa will be getting listed in the BST. 14/Crazy just gets the nod for 22 set.
  15. I also found the Zodia a touch firm in the irons. Dense but clicky noise which related to the feel.
  16. It was like any economy. New buyers passed on to used buyers. The good thing was you knew if you purchased new from TSG you always had a buyer at around 25% less if sold quick enough. I was always a bit of both and still am. Only difference is my forum for selling has changed along with my options for buying. Non the less. This forums reviews and nice pics did make me get hot on certain items. They did there job. Tario did well out of the forum I would say given the good margins TSG have on most gear. I would say the shop/site sells plenty globally. It’s got quite a large audience with limited JDM retailers to compete 🌏 This forum is/was a microcosm in the TSG global sales portfolio wholesale and retail.! Having said that as already mentioned, there is a market for a self sustaining manager who likes using all the gear and writing reviews. 🤔 A Mark Crossfield type for JDM.?
  17. This has been ongoing for years! All started when Tario left. Chris chipped in for a while but the self interest was more noticeable with Chris as he is all business! That’s not a criticism just a fact. He did try….Then a few of the elites (old members) didn’t like new members or a fluid evolving forum so a break away underground wank wank sub TSG forum was formed by Chris to keep the few elites happy to fondle with each other’s pee pee’s and blow smoke up each other’s proverbial’s without distraction from us bottom feeders. Chris continued reviewing but being criticised along the way for only reviewing his own gear, which-lets face it, it’s all his on this forum anyway, or was supposed to be as he actually owns the joint 🤔 Inevitably some pissed him off and got the flick. Those disbarred members then went on to form another forum for pretty much the gear they supplied, which some of it funny enough supplied to them by Chris 🙄 f**king funny. Eventually every time Chris popped his head up with a review of his own gear he was shot down immediately. We are now saying something is better than nothing…Crazy! Who the f**k would put there hands up to run this s**t given the history. I would say definitely not Chris. I’m actually surprised he hasn’t closed the whole thing down. I’m not saying poor Chris or he is blameless, but at the end of it all this is his gig, how he decides to move forward in regards to this forum is probably not even on his give a f**k radar…. I think the only chance is, if someone came up with a business plan and took it to Chris he might look at it then make a decision based on the benefits VS the drama/extra work. It would have to be pretty much seamless to even get a sniff. So unfortunately lads I think we are pissing in the wind. It is what it is unless we have a sleeping genius/entrepreneur amongst us. Does Elon like golf?
  18. I get you….Not sure hearing reviews and descriptions from someone with a vested interest will help you. But as you say it’s better than nothing if you can read between the lines. Incentivise is the only way you will get anyone to invest the time.
