My Covid Purchases - KYOEI Putter, CGS Orion Wedges


golftech

Recommended Posts

After month+ indoors self isolating, I decided to reward myself with a new putter and wedges from TSG.  As always, Chris was quite helpful in my election and I went with the new KYOEI putter in carbon steel with the black DLC plated finish.  The milling quality (even more detailed than my Swag) and finish are amazing.  More importantly, the feel is addictive.  It’s quite soft, but with great feel for speed control excellent.  Face milling gives a tight roll fairly quickly.  Precisely the feel and sound I was looking for. 

For the wedges I choose the CGS Orion Type-S which are a slightly rounder shape (brought back memories of the FE 99.3 TourStage wedges I purchased from TSG in 2006).  Nice C-Grind makes them quite versatile.  The most stunning aspect is the finish and feel. The polished chrome on the back is mirror like, plus with copper underlay the feel is really soft.  Only hitting indoor chips and pitches, but can tell these will be in the bag once golf courses re-open!  
 

Thanks again Chris for your help,

I hear you.. since I was spending so much more time on my computer I wound up finding a couple of awesome deals on some very good condition preowned clubs. I couldn't say no.

out of curiosity what is the Swag that you're referring to?

It’s the Swag Suave One.  Impressive milling throughout, plus the milled flow neck is a unique shape.  It’s nice, the the KYOEI already has become my favorite.

Here’s my covid purchases:

Yonex Ti Hybrid MB #3-PW - I’ve been searching for a set of these in good condition and for a decent price for years. I finally found a full set in EXCELLENT condition 

Crazy CRZ-435 - the infamous bomber. I’ve been reading member posts about how great this driver is ever since I discovered TSG. I will now be able to experience it for myself. Even got one with custom paint fill

those yonex are awsome  irons.

 

I have not had a chance to hit these yet.. I completely understand the concept of the titanium in the muscle and how/why it works, but what I’m wondering is how someone like yourself would describe these compared to a normal one piece forged head as far as playability is concerned? Shape wise they definitely look like a semi-compact MB and not a CB, and I understand that the size of the “sweet” area on the face is a bit larger because the titanium is creating a cavity effect inside the muscle, but do they FEEL more like a CB or an MB? The size also makes me think they’ll be more workable like an MB, is that true?

Awesome blades and cult driver.

If you ever need a refinish let me know.

Are you refinishing driver heads through clubworks now Chris?

Long awaited Covid purchase

Love the look of these. The hollow internal cavity with the slightly wider sole is interesting and somethings I had too try.

Love my blades so something that can give that blade look and feel but with a hair more forgiving could be best of both.

Lots of mass low down in the back with a slightly larger/longer profile in the 3,4,5 than with usual sets of blades. Sort of makes sense and how I imagined a set of blades in the long irons should be. Very pleasing to look at from the top across the whole set.

These will be shafted with Crazy STP 3-pw with Xroz black silver grips.

Something different....Very much looking forward to using.

Putter doesn't look too shabby either.
