hutchy 0 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Is anyone even running this show, or is it being left to die a slow painful death. I have been noticing that some nice gear and pics of gear, with some good write ups coming through on the Tourspec Insta page. ??? My question is why isn't someone simply just taking the time to transfer the already available posts over here in to the forum???? It cant be that hard??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dickyfowler 0 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Indeed.... This website could be so much better -- lots of great equipment coming to light but not nearly enough reviews and information. Most of the good folk checking this website do so because they buy and enjoy the quality Japanese equipment, but most do not live in Japan and that makes it almost impossible to test anything before buying ..... and that is not normally a good plan when spending the levels of money this premium equipment costs. Often silly and simple Google translations that we see here are way short of the mark when it comes to knowing enough about the new releases.

dickyfowler 0 Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 there is a new write-up about a Miura product in the Blog section and this is interesting and helpful - more of that please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hutchy 0 Posted December 14, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) The way I see it from a pure business point of view. Pay someone on commission only to run the forum properly with new release pics and reviews, gear coming soon, answering questions, etc...we all know the drill. Bla bla. That person/moderator could be paid coms on gear sold through the forum only, for drumming up and increasing sales. Have privy to gear at cost price to use, review, then sell in the forum as used demo if they wanted. Discuss adding more product from the brands available at Tourspec. Plenty to get stuck in to here. I cant remember the last time I saw a TSG clubworks finish or refurb on here. You can write up on this and that but at the end of it all. ITS ALL ABOUT THE NEW GEAR, STUNNING PICS, NICE BUILDS AND COMBOS........... CUSTOMER SERVICE/GUEST EXPERIENCE.! Edited December 15, 2020 by hutchy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Come on mods, sort it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nobmontana 0 Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 reviews need to come from folks who have tried the clubs. There is not a club in my bag where I have not provided some type of feedback... what about you guys?!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mate, you do a stellar job of reviewing everything you play, this is more about someone having access to the new gear and testing. Access to pics in hand of new products, up and coming release insider info etc. Maybe someone should sublet the forum from Chris under the TSG banner and operate as a business that would be mutually beneficial to all parties. Something needs to be done..! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dickyfowler 0 Posted December 22, 2020 Report Share Posted December 22, 2020 yes there are a lot of new clubs I'm keen to look into -- and buy. I buy new gear every year but am getting reluctant to spend thousands on items that LOOK GOOD but don't actually work for me. That of course is purely my fault. I'm an impulsive buyer of quality golf equipment. But now I have a garage full of expensive Japanese golf gear. And I cannot find any website where someone talks about and tests the new stuff - on camera. An example is I bought the Ryoma irons a couple of years back - love Ryoma in general but was not impressed with the irons. Now I'm interested in buying maybe the Modart or the Baldo forged irons .... but have no idea other than photos about what they might do for me. And of course shafts are so important for all equipment and we sure need to get more feedback on all of the options out there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mjr. D 0 Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 I'd love to review Japanese golf club equipment on Youtube in 2021. I'm coming out with a YouTube channel for Pure Distance Golf and it would be a great part of the channel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
