"Next is tourstage 12.5 from your recommendation paired with b70s.. maybe 7months in the bag, this is the same as driver." Just found one of these X-Fw Type T new with a Fubuki alpha 70s - excited and hope it becomes a keeper too!

Good topic! 1. Jbeam 425 Tour 10.5* with 2009 Roddio Shingospec M6x Always playing around with drivers, but this one's never far away and when I am fit and swinging well I can make it sing! 2. My PRGR ZOOM 220i #2 driving iron Such a versatile club. Par 4 tee balls, par 5 2nd shots, recovery from under trees, low into wind shots etc. 3. Hiro Matsumoto MZ putter Played with it for 6 years. Sold it. Bought another one, and another (which Rob (Oskar) has now. Perfect putter on fast greens.

Agree 410V is such a solid head and pretty shape Hutchy!

No probs. Like you - I have clubs and can go play!

MizunoPro 300s mint new with original stiff shaft. 10*

MizunoPro 300s mint new with original stiff shaft. 10*

Epon Technity 420 10* with wool Epon cover Mizuno k75td 10.25* (small pear deeeeep) Kasco DNA E340 11* (has original reg shaft)

Does this thing come out low Spoon? Got plenty of small heads for trade, but worried about getting this in the air!!

I have one in 7.4 - has a Gauge Design 4 wood head on it and plays 43 inches. I find it a bit light. Got anything to trade? Cheers Darren

What could possibly go wrong?????

Good on ya Hutchy. Great people on this forum and your post says a lot about you. Sounds like you are doing all the right things mate. All the best.

Now I am excited. I still use the Zoom 220i driving 2 iron (nothing beats it) and this new DI and the fw look very juicy indeed. If they do a low offset blade or hollow blade -------- yippeeee! Love PRGR

Nice review. Love Jbeam! What is the loft of this head?

Someone's going to enjoy that Shingo. Great shaft!!

I adore the 2009 Shingo. 105+ mph mid tempo and this thing is very friendly like an old comfy pair of slippers. Great price so fill ya slippers!!!!!

Just built a Ryoma Maxima V 10.5* with the 7.4 cb80 ls and it gets up fast and spins low. Great combo. Swing it 105-110 mph med tempo. My Jbeam 425 Shingo 2009 goes mid-low in comparison.

I don't care about offset if ball comes out of the middle and goes where I want. Eyes get used to it pretty quick. A closed driver? That's different!!!

Definitely Japan forged those. I bought a set with s200 from TSG and did homework on them at the time. Shot 3 under first game with them!

TC1000 were mooshy goodness!!

Two weight ports in the RX would allow heavier I guess? You liked the RX did you not Chris? Was it that hard to get up in the air?

Don't worry about it Stu - we get ya! I just hope we can find time to play some more golf - this working thing sucks!

SOLD (or traded) already!

Legendary Jbeam 435 10*, 45.25 inches @ D4 with Original Stinger 70s installed. New grey Masda Slick grip. The thing feels sweet but just flies too low for me and I don't want to pull this shaft. Prefer the shape of the Jbeam 425 anyway. Will accept $500 Aussie shipped anywhere or trades on other high end drivers - let me know what you have in the cupboard! In fact if anyone has a spare Jbeam 425 head or driver in 10.5* or 11* I'd be interested. Head is very glossy with no marks apart from a very feint scratch at the back, not at all noticeable at address.

Agree - no issue with sound of 425 and I think it is a much prettier head at address than 435. I have both and find the middle of the 425 just as easily. 425 sounds and feels better and can control shape and trajectory better by adjusting tee height etc....
