Here's a cool link I found on Golf Digest Japan. It gives video reviews on all kinds of equipment from drivers, irons, putters, balls, even rainwear. It's in Japanese only, but I think you can enjoy it without understanding. Click here for link

Good find and great job on the report! Too bad Epon wasn't included. I would like to see how it stacks up to the competition. It would be nice if U.S. Golf Digest wrote articles like this instead of anti-slicing tips and how to break 100.

That's too bad, but hopefully I'll get to see it.

I just looked at the english Endo site for the first time and saw that they're located in Tsubame City in Niigata prefecture. This December, I'm going with my girlfriend to visit her parents in Japan and they live in Niigata City in Niigata Prefecture. I looked on a map and the Epon plant is only about 25 miles away from their house!! I'll be there for 2 1/2 weeks so I'll definitely have time to go check out the plant. I'll try to contact the guys at Epon to see if I could get a tour of the facilities while I'm there. If I can, I'll be sure to take lots of pictures and post a report. I can speak Japanese pretty well so I'll try to get a lot of info out of them! Has anyone else had the chance to go there?

I don't like how you can see the back of the club at address. I wonder how it compares to traditional hybrids. I bet the feel is great, but what about forgiveness and trajectory?

I'm fortunate enough to be able to use Trackman on a frequent basis, which is a $40k machine. Now golfers can have something similar for only $100 is incredible. I love how it hooks up to a laptop. Being able to use a machine like this on a daily basis is going to save me a lot of strokes. Thank you Japan!!

Is it just me, or does it look like a cheap club you would find at Wal Mart? When I first read "Epon Prototype Putter" I thought "There goes another paycheck!" But I think this is the first club from Epon that I haven't been crazy about. I would expect their putter to have more of a classic design than that. I hope this putter stays just a prototype.
