  1. G, Follow your heart, you won't be disappointed...
  2. Some more so than others. In order of forgiving to demanding I believe it goes 525 then 725 followed up by 925...
  3. So I have played the Pro Forged irons, a couple of their wedges, the utility clubs and the iBrids. All of them are stellar performers in their own right. Would agree with Pete on the comparison to the BB, but I think RomaRo are better all around. The utilities play similarly to the Epon 902, a little bit more hollow sound at impact, but the get the ball going nicely. The iBrids are another top notch club. More workable than the utes and not as prone to a hook. Lastly, have a a pair of the SX wedges and an Alcobaca. They play much firmer than the irons would lead you to believe but they deliver on performance.
  4. Have a few more, the slurring of it will come out in one breath...
  5. That is the Pro Forged... Did they do something new to it? Don't get me wrong, damn near perfect for me, especially with the Tour Attas iron shaft. About the only thing lacking, to me, was it needs to be more compact, little bit higher CoG, and a thinner top line... Of course I'm nit picking because that is what we do here...
  6. HCR made before 2005 is still not rules compliant today. So just because it was made before COR was regulated does not make it legal today. Same goes for the grooves, iron with loft > 24* made before 2010 still can't be played it in sanctioned events… If your objective is to be long irrelevant of the rules, than HCR it is. Those made today might not be "longer" but the more forgiving nature of the head means even the mis**ts go farther straighter. If price is your primary consideration before performance and $200 is your limit than older clubs are your best bet on the JDM front. Should you be willing to open your wallet and your mind than there are a myriad of other options both HCR and conforming that could help you get the distance you desire...
  7. You should try the 18* Utility...
  8. So what does the other side of that pamphlet look like? Are there more pages on the inside and what do those look like if there are?
  9. Is there a chance they are going to do the 2013 Type S custom like they did with the '12s? If so, is it too late to change the shaft on my Yammie driver order?
  10. Love the face on the irons... When is this stuff supposed to hit the Pro Shop? Are they adding an 18* to the Type S utility line? So many questions too little money...
  11. At least someone did a search....
  12. RIduffer replied to idrive's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    At least the used part is true, you can see the bag chatter on the back...
  13. Callaway has something that looks similar with the diamond pattern… Looks like a lot of offset...
  14. I consider myself lucky, just being without power still…. There are many homeless, even more with moderate to severe damage to homes and businesses, and sadly even some dead...
  15. You should try the Vega. Great feel and loud!!!!? Did I mention it was loud?
  16. How can you call yourself a gear ho if you're not gonna change your shaft ever again? How will you ever know what is better out there if you're afraid to try? In any case, congrats on the end of your search...
  17. So we have been without power since 1:20 this afternoon. Personally not expecting to get it back for a couple more days... Anyone else...?
  18. The Personals don't need help with launch...
  19. The copper is applied to th raw head... I just think it looks different. Not sure exactly what Epon is doing with this finish...
  20. I must agree about the p9003x being better shorter and with a heavier head....
  21. I resemble that remark... Not the 13, but the short game woes... I don't birdie a lot, I don't blow up a lot, but I get a crap load of 2 putt pars...
  22. I know a place that will plate in copper. Different than the copper finish from Epon I believe. You can see what they look like after plating by checking out my old listing for Blade Golf in USDM BST...
  23. Just teasing P... I think you would take me head to head...
  24. So you met Potuna...?
