  1. I can supply Dale's full name, address and telephone number to any lady members of this forum.
  2. Not sure where to post this so here is as good as anywhere. What makes a ladies driver a ladies driver? Apart from the shaft, which is given, if I put my Diamana X, into the SYard ladies model, what results would I get? Are they more forgiving? Easier to use? Lomger? Why ladies only? Early in morning in UK and bored.
  3. What planet are you on?

    Don't be put off, everyone's swing is different, they may suit you perfectly. My advice would be to give them time, they feel very different from the 120's and will take time getting used to.

    Thanks for advice, looks like they could be the ones.

    Does anyone play these? Tried the tour wrap and the feel is amazing (but then it should be at three times the cost of normal grips). Really tacky with a soft feel. Very impressive. My questions are; Do they require any additional maintenance? How are they in wet weather? (live in UK so this is important) Longevity?

    For reference it's .350

    If something is new, I want it but they did not want me. Against the Modus Tour 120, ball speed down, distance down and launch angle higher. Dispersion was slightly better. It has a unique almost counter balanced feel, the tip is softer which is where the increased launch comes from. Some hits felt lovely and a slight improvement was achieved after several swings but these were in the minority. If you can achieve a ball speed with a 6 iron in excess of 125-130, these could be for you, for me, I would be knackered half way round, missing my Modus 120's, which are now being fitted to my Personals. Against the Monaco's, the 130 Tours would win every time, unless you are playing a links course with the wind against using a three iron to hit the ball 100 yards. If you are tempted, they do play stiff and you should be man enough to play a softer flex than normal.
  9. The only reason not to do it is some apps will not work on jailbroken phones,. Skygo, is a good example but you can download an older version with patch to replace modern version. Also installous has been retired which is a pity.
  10. Having been reluctant to purchase a white headed club in the past the new Baldo FW, took my interest and I thought why not. On receipt, I was slightly disappointed with the finish but as purchased head only, I shafted up with my trusted Kai'li. Was supposed to try out yesterday but due to cold weather the glue was not fully cured giving me the chance to really give the head a once over. Unfortunately, the more, I look at the finish the more disappointed, I am. I know Baldo, had a bad reputation in the past but thought great improvements were made? Now, this may be the the finest FW wood in all the kingdoms but............. I am off to the range later on today and hope, I am pleasantly surprised but in my mind it has been soiled. Am, I being stupid? Are all white headed clubs finished like a bad day with the masking tape? As the only phone, I have is on my iPhone, this is the best picture, I can provide.

    It's the Nippon rep who suggested, I try the 130's. Anyhow, Tuesday will tell all?

    Well, you do live near Sheffield, which is known for its steel forgings.

    As, I am TX in the Modus 3's 120's (2 hours with my fitter last week), one gram either way will not make much difference.

    Having a demo made up for me to hit next week for my Personals. 130g seems heavy but I am told it really performs. We shall see.

    With all due respect Ian, I would never want advice from someone who has no knowledge of my swing. General information and reviews a big yes, advice never.
  16. ukok replied to DaleUK's post in a topic in Buy, Sell, & Trade
    Totally agree. This comment should be cut and pasted into half the posts here.
  17. ukok replied to DaleUK's post in a topic in Buy, Sell, & Trade
    We agree, not to agree.

    That was Stew's quote, not mine.
  19. ukok replied to DaleUK's post in a topic in Buy, Sell, & Trade
    Stew, nothing to do with length. "these are chunky topline and SOFT. so soft the ball melts on the face. so...DONT go a soft shaft! therefore DONT go the ns wv the ball wil get "lost" in feel . id go DGx100..... shimada wedge...... maybe KBS black nickel....... something like that "

    That's a fantastic head, trying to replace mine with JDM but cannot find anything near comparable.
  21. ukok replied to DaleUK's post in a topic in Buy, Sell, & Trade
    Apologize for hijacking thread but Stew, you recommended the KBS to Dale in another thread? In fact I, recall you saying WV, would not be suitable, what has changed?
  22. I also hear a strange noise when, I use my driver, it sounds like FORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE!!!!!!!!

    Unfortunately, the "one" does not exist.
