    I have a Burner 860 somewhere. Let me check loft. I know it is a regular flex. Can you send me a pm with your email address and zip code? I'll try to get out pics. Shipping might be expensive but the driver will be cheap.
  2. This thread just spurred my memory. Anyone know what happened to the como como slogan contest?
  3. Not a fan of the Cherry Dot request granted on putters. Kinda comes off as "I'm xeroxing a xerox". The putters themselves look great though. The G in the middle changes it up a bit, but still. Can't guys come up with their own original design? Is it that hard to do?
  4. Looks similar to the Precept Fuel driver. Similar but not the same.
  5. Garry, I'm a local. I think I've met you before. Send me a PM. I might have a friend getting rid of his Pwede mo rin ako itext sa 3231420 (globe).

    haha.
  7. This putter is sooo soft. I find this insert softer than the SC Tel3. The black finish is very durable I well. I had 8 rounds on my MC2 before I stopped playing it in favor of my 360cw.

    Aren't Dynamic Golds just weight sorted Dynamics? TT says so. Clubmakers that have profiled both shafts say so.

    Thank you for the link to the specs. Looks like this one has been rehsfted with a 661 to 42.25" which is .5" longer than stock. Swingweight by my computation should be D5sh then. I'll check later.

    Thank you Gocchin. Fountain of info as usual :)

    I just picked up a BBD Type H 5+ (18 loft) with a Tourspec 661. I'm just wondering what the + means. I know Callaway does the "+" to indicate smaller head/square face angle, but all the type Hs I know of are square face angle anyway. I really didn't need another fw but at $90 8/10. I figured what the heck.
  12. Spoon, Looking at this post. I have seen your putters. It seems we have a common friend, and was he the one who brought them in for you. Is Gahum a buddy of yours by any chance? I held the putters and have a few comments. I you want PM me at PG and I can tell you my comments.
  13. Heat treated before the forging? How hot? I imagine it is not just barbeque type heat and you would need special equipment.
  14. TSG, What are Gold's plans now that GD/G-Field is closed? IIRC he was getting some of the heads from them?

    I wonder if it's face balanced. It has a bigger toe area ala JAT.

    Gocchin, You're right. I'll delete my posts that shouldn't be out there. No need to muck up this thread. My friend was asked by the Miz distributor to take the pics down in the meantime. So actually the taking down worked out as well. Chris we need your pics. Especially the address pics of the short irons. Need to see if these have reverse progression.

    Just trying to keep it clean. Hopefully we can get better pics soon.
  18. Does the weight on the toe make it fade bias? How is the face angle? I'm not really a hook machine but closed faces I can't get comfortable and hit pushes all day long.

    My country dealer has pics on his camera phone. They are being forwarded to me. I have been told that I am correct. Basically MP27s with cut muscle. I have been sworn to secrecy and cannot show the pics otherwise I cannot get the pre order discount pricing. The Japan market dealers will get samples in late August and a formal launch is set in late September. New driver as well. Movable, but not detachable weighting. I'm sure Chris with his contacts in Miz can get more info without getting on a bad side like me.

    I'm betting it is basically the MP27 with cut muscle technology. They really are pushing the "cut muscle".
  21. It would be great if we can get side by side with a more "common" wedge so we can see the difference clearer. Shots beside a CG10 and a Vokey SM would be great.

    I wasn't there at the time. I was in HK Disney and having a nice father's day weekend with the wife and kids. I wish I was there though for at least the sale. They were selling most of everything at 30%off. Imagine MP60s with stock NS Pro 1050s at a great price.

    Mizuno just held the Finals of a National 2man Scramble Tournament here in the Philippines. The Asia Manager was there. A buddy struck up a conversation and squeezed out that a new iron is to be released in late August. In between the MP27 and MP60...a MP57.
  24. Actually I find a lot of the JDM stand bags practical and as cart bags. They have the "zip away" legs that don't get tangled up in the cart. The pockets are just as big. The only time I actually use the legs is when I'm at the range. I play in a cart or have a caddy with a push cart 100% of the time.
  25. My raw irons. Still deciding to what to shaft them up with.
