  1. JPGA Tour Issue Royal Collection BBD Type H 13* 3 wood with Tour Spec Fujikura TrTi46 X flex shaft. This is one of the best fairway wood shafts ever made. Nice and heavy with a great kick. Head has been used but is in good shape. There are a couple scratches on the topline but other than that it looks great. It has a leading edge grind that was done by the RC tour van. I will ship this beauty for $390 PM or email at [email protected] with questions.
  2. Mark, Please email me at [email protected]. I just checked and I have not recieved any emails from you recently. Your wedges are in a large batch that we are waiting to get back from our new Japaneese plater. The delay is due to this change in plater and the time it took to get everything worked out with them. The new finish that you and everyone else will be recieveing is 100x better than our old finish and well worth waiting for. If you look in the Tour/Import forum there are pics of the new finish in the Scratch OTR thread. I appologize to you and everyone else that has a club in this batch for the extra delay. If anyone has any concerns or questions please email me at the above @sgolfclubs.com address and not the [email protected] address. That address has been overrun with junk mail and is no longer active.
  3. 2-PW set of timeless classic Mizuno MP-14s. Shafts are X100 with Gripmaster Leasther grips ($20 a piece) These were used by a player (not me LOL) there is some chrome wear in the sweetspot only on the 7-PW. The 2-6 are clean of chrome loss. Other than that they have normal bag chatter from normal play. I will ship the set for $350 Email is [email protected]
  4. Center shafted 100% milled (retail is cast) Eldik heavy head. PROTOTYPE stamped on the sole. These are very rare and hard to find in the milled model and even harder to find in a center shafted. Putter is in excellent condition and comes with headcover. I need to move this so I am listening to offers at [email protected]
  5. This is a brand new 52* Scratch handmade forged wedge. It has our famous Tango & Cash grind along with handmilled weight slots to raise the COG. It will be shafted up with a Dynamic Golf shaft to the length of your choice, bent to the lie of your choice and weighted to the swingweight that you want (within reason) Right now the wedge is Raw. If you would like it to stay Raw we can ship it out tomorrow. If you would like Antique or 3X Black it will take an extra week. If you want one of our plated finishes (Satin Chrome, Polished Chrome or Brushed Copper) it will take about 3-4 weeks. We can also do any custom shaft and grip for a small upcharge. Cost is $160 shipped for Raw, $170 for Antique or 3X Black and $200 for plated. We can also stamp anything that you want on it free of charge. Feel free to email me at [email protected] if you have any questiosn.
  6. Absolutely! We will be offering a refinish special on this new Japaneese Chrome finish for all of our past customers. Anyone that is interested send me an email to [email protected]
  7. I bought the last wedges in stock. I have 5 for sale in Satin, I will do the paintfill in any color you want. 159.00 Shipped ! I have 56, 58, 60 & a PW w/ S300 shafts and Lamkin crosslines, all brand new. What is the bounce and grind on the OTR's LOL beats me :-D Hey Ari! Any Idea what these wedges are? The new OTR line will be offered in 48*, 53*, 56*, 58* and 60*. The bounce angle on the 48* is 5* while the other 4 lofts have a high bounce (Digger/Driver) and a low bounce (Sweeper/Slider) option. The bounce angles are as follows: 53* Low Bounce: 6* 53* High Bounce: 8* 56* Low Bounce - 10* 56* High Bounce - 14* 58* Low Bounce - 10* 58* High Bounce - 14* 60* Low Bounce - 8* 60* High Bounce - 12* Aside from the different bounce angles, each wedge has a specific grind to make it as playable as possible in the maximum amount of situations. For example, the Low Bounce 58* and 60* have some trailing edge relief only and a moderatly cambered sole. The lack of heel and toe grind on the Low Bounce 58* and 60* makes it very playable from the sand despite the lower bounce angle. This relief along with the lower bounce make it great for flop shots and any other shots around the green for the person with the flatter more sweeping swing. The High Bounce 58* and 60* have a little bit of trailing edge relief, an aggressive heel and toe grind and very little camber. The aggressive heel and toe grind make it playable when you want to open the face even with the higher bounce angle. The high bounce angle makes it great from the sand. The higher boucne angle combined with the lack of camber make it great for any other shots around the greens for the person with a steeper more aggressive swing. Chris, The 53* and 56* that you have are the Low Bounce models. The 58* and 60* you have to look and see if there is any heel and toe relief to the grind to determine the bounce. Also FYI, this is the same Satin Chrome finish that we are now using on our custom wedges. The Polished Chrome is also done at the same plating house in Japan.
  8. 3-5 iron Lehman Grind +2mm 6-PW standard offset Lehman Grind These are 100% legit Miura made straight off the TM tour van. I can shaft them with 5.5 Rifle, 6.0 Rifle or 6.0 Tour Flighted Rifles. I will also bend the loft and lie to your specs. The price is $1300 shipped. I will also shaft with any shaft that you choose in any length you want with any grip as long as you pay for the shafts and grips. Email is [email protected] Get them now they will not last long.
  9. This is one RARE and hard to find 3 wood. The Kasco KP99 was made in parts of 1999 and 2000. It was made to exact specs of tour pros and anyone else that was willing to pony up the $1000 price. This one has a very rare and expensive Tour only Fujikura HM4 Counterbalanced shaft. The shaft frequencies out into a normal stiff flex. This head was made by Kasco for this shaft. Every spec works out perfectly. It is 42.75" and D3.5 with a Gripmaster Leather grip on it. (you need a 222 gram head to get the club to D3.5 at these specs. normal 3 wood heads weight between 313-315) This club came from a PGA tour pro who got rid of it because the shaft was a little soft for him. It has an incredibly solid feel, no slight ting that my other KP99 had. The club was refinished by the tour pro to a brushed silver finish with a polished sole. (he hates painted fairway woods) I will ship this club for $550. Email is [email protected]
  10. VERY RARE. Center shafted 380 gram head Milled (not cast like the retail) Eldik Prototype. Black Teflon finish, PROTOTYPE stamp on the sole. There were only a handfull of these made. I will ship for $500 OR BEST OFFER. Email is [email protected]
  11. I need to move this putter. I am taking cash offers through email at [email protected]. This is one extremely rare hard to find putter.
  12. The Copper plated finish us pretty durable. Its not as durable as chrome but is plenty durable in a set of iron unless you hit alot of balls on a grass sand based range. In that case I would suggest having us make you an extra iron to use as a practice club for the range. We have done this for a couple people that have Copper sets and it has worked out great. You also have to be a little carefull to wipe them off if they get wet or they could oxidize and rust a little bit. They look even better when the oxidize and darken with age into a nice petina. I have a Copper set of CBs in my bag that I have had for a few months and they look very very good. No worse than a chrome set would look at this point. I dont get to practice much but I have played a bunch of rounds on them. I also had a set of Copper wedges for 6 months that wore very nicely and I was practicing a descent amount then. I wore through the sole a little bit on the 58* that I used all the time from the sand but the 48* and 53* looked great after 6 months of use. I only sold them because someone I was paired up with offered me alot of money to buy them from me on the spot. LOL :laugh: I am definetly a big fan of the Copper finish personally. We just made a Copper Combo set for a guy and the Blades really looked amazing. This is one set you can see for miles away LOL. It has bright oragne MCC shafts with the Copper finish and bright orange paintfill! I will try to get a couple pics up.
  13. This is one of a VERY FEW of these made. It is milled from a block of steel instead of NanoCast like the retail. It has a heavy head @ 380 grams. It is center shafted unlike the retail model which is heel shafted. It has PROTO stamped on the sole. It is in very good condition, just a couple small marks make it look other than brand new. I will sell this putter for $525 shipped. Dont miss this oppertunity to own this incredibly sweet rare putter.
  14. Unfortunetly the harddrive on my computer crashed and I lost all of the pics that I had. :mad: I will see about taking a new pic of a Copper wedge and posting it for you.
  15. Mike, They are going to be Polished Chrome finish. There will be no satin sets made as far as I know other than for tour players. The person I talked to was pretty adement that the US release sets will not be made by Miura.
  16. What are the shaft options of the R5 Tour and how does it differ in appearance from the regular R5? How many CC is it? Finally, when does it come out? Thanks. Jovi Jovi, This was a Tour Issue r5 it is not something that is going to be available to the public anytime real soon (although you never know with TM). The one I hit had a Fujikura 660TR X in it. To me the shape looked more pear shaped than the regular r5 but I was told that it is the same shape and size as the r5. Maybe it was the fact that the face was a little open instead of the 3* closed that the retail one I was looking at had.
  17. Thanks for the reviews & insight. Would you say the Heaven Utility feels more like a fairway wood. I had a TM Rescue Mid and could hit it well but I just didn't like the feel. I would say that the Heaven Wood Utility feels very much like the BB2004 fairway woods. Definetly more of a wood feel than an iron feel.
  18. I was told by the rep that the retail set of TP CBs I was hitting was made in China.
  19. WILSON-STAFF: PD5 Driver: This is the new Composite-Titanium Wilson Staff driver. It is 400cc and comes with a normal .350 tip Grafalloy shaft. This driver was the surprise of the day for me. The shape is great, traditional pear shape with a nice moderatly deep face. Looks better at address than 95% of drivers out there. The only thing that prevents the shape from being perfect is that the top of the crown is pretty flat I would prefer it to have a little more contour. They say that they flat top and bottom makes the energy transfer better. Every one that I looked at set up square. The head is black and you can just make out a little bit of the carbon at the back part of the crown. Performance wise this thing is a monster too. I hit it about 5-10 yards longer than all of the other drivers I hit and most of it is extra carry. That being the case my ballflight was nice and boring. Feel is excellent, it is loud enough so that you know you have hit it good but not so loud that it is annoying. Close to the Titleist 983 series in sound and feel but a little different. All in all this is an excellent driver that should do pretty well when it hits the market in about 30 days. PDI Progressive Forged Irons: A blast from the past from Wilson. Their new players iron is a forged combo set wearing the same Wilson Staff Progressive badge as its older sibling. The long irons have maximum perimeter weighting, the short irons are true blades and the mid irons are in between. The clubs look exactly the same as the old Progressives in the bag. I dont think they changed the look of the club at all. The one big difference is that Wilson has sold their Hoffman forging plant so these heads now come from China. Performance wise these will hold their own with any of the US made Forged CBs or combo sets. Feel is very good. If you like the somewhat blocky shape of Wilson irons than you will love the way these look. All in all a very solid iron and a great way for Wilson Staff to get back to the market place. Fairway Wood: This is a Composite-Steel Fairway wood to go with the PD5 driver. It also has a normal .350 tip shaft. I was not as impressed with the FW as I was the driver. The shape is not as good, it is alot more round. Size and face depth are good though. Performance is average, I was not blown away by these FWs but I could play them if I was forced to. Hybrid: This new Hybrid is very ugly. It is VERY long from heel to toe and very short from front to back. Reminds me of the Kasco K2K a little bit. I did not get a chance to hit this club. CALLAWAY GOLF- HeavenWood Utility: This is Callaways first try at a hybrid or utility club. It looks exactly like the new BB2004 woods except it is much shorter from front to back. It even has the same soleplate design. The hosel is set like a wood so there is no offset. Performance wise these things are very good. The feel is typical Callaway as is the results. Very forgiving no matter where on the face you hit the ball. If you are looking for a hybrid with no offset that sets up like a wood this is a good one to take a look at. White Steel 2 Ball: This putter is a big improvement over the original IMO. First off the 303SS/White Hot insert provides the kind of crisp feedback that I like in a putter. The original White Hot insert is much too soft for me. This putter feels great. It is also great for alignment thanks to the 2 ball system and the new color scheme on top. The center of the putter is a lighter grey than the rest of the putter which gives you a nice thick line to go with the 2 balls for alignment. This putter is also about 20 grams heavier than the normal 2 ball putter which is also a big improvement. Anyone that likes the 2 ball but doesnt like the insert needs to try this club out. TAYLOR MADE- Forged TP CBs: These irons do look better in person that in the pics. The horizontal blinds in the cavity dont look as gaudy as in the pics but are still pretty gaudy. Fortunetly it cant be seen at address. The look at address is good, very simular to the TM300s but with a little more of a square toe. Feel is simular to the TM300s nice and solid. It did seem to me that these clubs had a rather high COG as I was getting a lower ballflight than I normally do especially in the long irons. All in all a very nice Forged CB although I liked the Wilson Staff Progressives better in every way except shape. R5 TOUR Driver: This thing is a rocket launcher. As you all know I am not a big TM fan but I was very impressed with this club. It has 2 movable weights in the back but where they are posistioned I dont see it making that much of a difference. This thing has a nice shape that you could almost call a pear shape. Certainly less round than previous TM drivers. Feel is also VERY solid. It reminded me more of my 975D than the retail r5 or r7. It was not loud at all but had a nice crack sound at impact. Ballflight is also great with thing. I hit just about every ball in the "fairway". Amazingly it was not as long as the Wilson-Staff but an excellent performer in all respects. TOURSTAGE- FST+ 3 Wood: Another very strong effort by TourStage. This thing has everything. The shape is perfectly pear shaped. It reminds me of a smaller version of the J340 or other TourStage drivers. The face is pretty deep, atleast a scoring line deeper than my RC BBD TypeH. Feel is typical TourStage. Very solid and somewhat muted. No loud noise or ting at impact at all. Performance is also very good. It is pretty forgiving for a players club, my heel and toe mis**ts still go pretty well. Center hits are pretty long, almost as long as any 3 wood I have tried (and thats with the stock shaft) My only complaint is that the ballflight is a little higher than I would like. I think I am going to put an Aldila NV95 or 105 in it and see if I can get the ballflight where I want it. Once that is done this club will likely make it into the Varsity bag displacing the Kasco KP99.
  20. 1) 14* TourStage FST+ with Graphite Design TDX-Stiff Flex shaft. 9.5/10 conditon. This is the new hot TourStage fairway wood. Deep face design, perfect TourStage feel and shape, explosive face, sits a hair open. $400 shipped 2) 13* Royal Collection BBD Type H Tour Proto with Fujikura HM4 Counterbalance Tour Prototype shaft. This head has seen some use, there are a couple small dings on the head but the topline is clean, no skymarks. Easy 7.5/8/10 condition. This is by far the best fairway wood shaft ever made. 115 grams, mid kick, low torque, counterbalanced. It is Tour only, very expensive and hard to find. The head came straight off the Sonartec PGA Tour Van earlier this year. This is one heck of a combo. $425 shipped 3) RARE Gauge Design Japan Eldik Milled (not the nano-cast) center shafted heavy head prototype. This is one of a very limited number of these made. It has a very heavy head and is center shafted. The head is milled instead of cast like the retail. It has the black teflon finish. 9/10 condition. $550 shipped. 4) Scotty Cameron ETW Scottydale Proto. This is the longneck Scottydale that Tiger used to win his first PGA Tour event before he switched to the TeI3. Very Rare and hard to find with teh ETW stamp. $1000 shipped Send me an email to [email protected] if you are interested. I am not really interested in trades but will always listen to offers.
  21. This is one pure and incredibly rare putter. It is one of a handfull that were made at the beginning of the year. It is all milled not Nano-Cast like the Eldik retail. Center shafted Gauge Japan Eldik Prototype. It has a heavy head, @ 395 grams. It has the Gauge Black Teflon finish. PROTO stamped on the bottom. It is in great shape, the sole and face are 9+/10. The only real flaw is a couple little dings on the heel side where the headcover doesnt cover the head. Comes with a really cool Gauge Japan headcover. I will ship this beauty for $600. Send me a PM or email to [email protected]
  22. *Deal Pending on the Tour Blades* A ton of interest in the Classic Blades but nobody has pulled the trigger yet..........
