ROYAL COLLECTION BBD 304p. 14*/18*/20* set pear shaped art. small compact, dense. powerfull. workable beyond most others. lower launch , low spin, things of absolute beauty in hand at address shiny chrome base finish minimal intursion to its simplicity. 14* diamana X 70s. 18* crayz blck 50 20* shimada 105 fw steel. wind days are good for this set. links as well. feel.. where the syb are electric in hand , these are frozen marshmallow. ball feels like it sits the explodes. from the face as apposed to tinks. immediatly opposite feel to the SYB equally good. prob not ideal for high cappers or beginners. better ball strikers i cudnt imagine wont like these if they lie pear shapes an even better match for the tourstage p51. driver , they look the same in hand. superb. uttlery superb.

kamui pro tp-09d - diamana stinger 70s. 45inch 317g 10* another kamui. another stinger, another happy camper. i took the diamana X out of this and put in a stinger, somwethig about that shaft switch made this a much better match. lower flight i think is a start, bit fuller feeling, damper, more of a thud.... transform this build into a more powerfull build capeable of being played in s**ttty conds more so than with the X.whcih i took out in sunny days only, that workwed , high flight , tingy feel... nah new build suits much better. larger style head, big face. not really high toe as the 07 but still not flat! makes it look easy to draw but again nOT as easy as the 07, not as flat as the kp-01 , not as neutral.v this sits betweeen the high toe 07 and the mroe squareish kp-01 at address. still has a small draw look to it tho. play this at my home course primarily, long par 5s get out there a ways. not my rain or wind first choice ,but can easily do a great job in that. packs a punch but not as heavy as a jbeam, easier ot hit, easier to play. wheres this sit. ? " not played this in a while, yea, ill take it out" "humm that worke, shud take it out again" its a one of those.

yamaha v series heads. 202/203 , and tour model 9-10* i need to repost the old. 2011-2013. built a few of these of late al with diamana of course 7dreamers 65xs aliseli 83s + 73s stinger 70s diamana X 70s matrix f8m2 my god.... they are STILL the most amzaing felling heads..... soemthing about these thats addictive for feel and better than all the rest. they are NOT the most forgiving head ever made and to look at , at address , not overly big nor small, compact nor fullsome , they sit like a driver of golf balls sits, theres no flashiness to the look of them. no chunks missing. from the sole.. they are an out and out good looking head! the face is convex, like a LOT .. its noticeable at address, its not for everyone, in fact if ur not feeling great over that driver this head DOESNT give u warm fuzzy cuddlles. aggresseive convex is mood killer most times. for me it makes me think of too much movement laterally on non centered shots BUT it ALSO makes centered shots look enormously long..............esp the tour model ! its a trade off, on good days these dont , and it dont matter which one, are irresistable! bad days. eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek. for out and out feel the yamaha heads take some equalling , let alone beating> when i took these in to Mr wizard to build he gave me FULL thumbs up for all the best shafts>> he thinks , they are my best drivers, period, stinger and 7d 9* below..

KAMUI PRO KP-01 - DIAMANA STINGER 70s. "VADER" 45 x 318 x d1.5 x 10* finally , a NEW model driver to my hoards. sticking with KAMUI , they just do what i like , look like i like, play /sound like i like. this one is a bit flatter than the traditional high toe style. Its still got a bit of toeyness to it but nothing like the one above the KP-x or tp-07. Very funky looking edgey'ness to it as well. The sole is very eye catching without massvie chunks missing from it. imagine darth Vader mask. Sets up very square, larger face without being the side of barn u can see at adress, very nice look, very confidence inspiring. the club looks like it wasnt to go straight , and so far ,2 games in, thats what it excels at. def NOT a point shoot ping g25 type look its workable but Not a lot, i wont be takign this to Pete dyes insanity, nor will i be playing it on links back home, launch is high and o soaring , hang time with this is HUGE. not a work bunrer/roller, its an eagle. Cpl of drives with it took forever to come down, distancwe was fine, cant say it was longer than my others, but its def not shorter. played my normal course and the ball was out where the good drivers i play go, nothing was longer , but the hang time was extreme, this will be a first up choice in the wet or when summer hits and humidty becomes extreme and all carry comes with a premium. Its a driver ill use for good longer courses in the summer that have abit of width to them. 2 games in, ill pop this in the echelon of top shelf, 70s boron shaft suits it brilliantly , its low spin, pops off the face with a more dulled muted sound which is typical of KAMUI than an electric tink. was pondering putting the diamana X 60x into it which suits the tp-07 so well but thought the stigner is still my best shaft so why not try that first, cant see a reason to change. While its not (yet) no 1 in my satch and im not sure i can see it being that (yet) .., its def jumped ahead of a few others i have and on an equal footing with the tp-09 which i have identically shafted. for my eye i think i prefer the tp-07 loo k still but thst one has a defined high toe look that doesnt suit alot of courses i play as we ll as others. def not the best in wind. happy with the build, going in again this week alongside the tp-09. see how it stacks up in comparrison.

tourstage 701 3-5-7. diamana aliislei rebuilt a ton of clubs last2 yrs with this shaft. it suits my lust for feel quite unlike others.its very speical. 7w s going to get a steel ns shaft but the 3-5 got the ali.. these are all rounders of the highest quality. play> wow , what a good match, vs the kaili set these awe MILES nicer to play, more gentle , feel softer, so sosoososo esay to hit the middle with. not going to win any distance contests with them but they are no slouch, kaili go longer for sure and lower. a more pwowerfull build. launch is on the higher side without being high.. fantasic fairway woods from the grass, not my faves off the tee, in fact i only hit them from the tee ground , no tee, they are adequate not great., RC much better off the tee. not being funny i built h these to muck about with as an alternate, im gonna have to rehtink that, they are so good !

KAMUI PRO, KP-X 9;5*- diamana stinger 70x 43.5 inch 202g head 327g this wont win any remax long drive comps but its not made to. its made to hit faiways all the time. kp-x pretty sure not many ,if any one took this up on release, the head shape "scares " most. its so toe high. its THE most comapct boxy head ive seen. Played this eons ago with so many shafts and found the tp-07 and changed tack. going back again now. lower loft head, 9.5* heavier weight way shorter build lower launch ,low spin ,low carry .roll roll roll.. down the middle pls old boy! stay OUT of the bundah. stear clear of the the moors! plays> any dirive i can see.. plays short and mid weight. in hand . the weight allocation @ 202g is perfect.. hits a heavy ball deep, dense, great feeling. had this in play with the kamui kp1 ,same shaft , that one at 45inch mot a doubt the kp 45inch is slighly longer but the difference in accuray is insane. i the kp-x is like hitting a huge headed 3 wood from a tee with very , very low spin the ball moved slightly draw but its (my) preference is for a cut... distance was excellent for a short build. flight height was what ever i needed it to be , very difference to what i was expecting low and scuttling......... but is NOT , its awsome. end of seach for a mini driver for me now. not even going to try and beat it . theres no point. my links home corse just got QED with this and the Ai chan p51.

i love a wedge or 19 . and i really LOVE a bridgey wegde. the tourstage x-wedge black SQP plated(?) from 2013 are STILL my gamers week in out , nothing ive tried since had been able to usurp them. many are close but if im playing comp , these get the bag spot. that pear shape is right up my alley. , these lok a bit thicker than the old ones? as much as a ilove a wedge.................... 800 a pop for soemthing u slap in sand a lot and use to hack ouf of difficult lie situatutions is a bit hard to swallow for me. 800???? saying that if i sold a kidney or 12 id prob take a look , that shape is RIGHT in my wheel house!

added a cpl more sets recently. -toustage 701 3-5-7 with diamana Kaili 70s 70x -SYB fc 15& / 18* diamana aliislei 73s 83s -mystery fd 13* and 18* diamana X 60s alislei 70s 18*, First off, im having REAL trouble taking these MYSTERY bats out of the bag, they GO! the 13* is as much a driver alt at times as it is off the fairway. long raking mid/ low is its forte, the ball like to get airbon but the shaft makes sure it doesnt get away with itself. from the tee its not really close to driver distance but of course is a zillion times more reliable. i only use it for the tee on short par 4s. its main job is to get a wriggle on a ways down the long par 5s , which i play a lot of these days. i def feel its got a few more legs that a normal 3w and its sleekish so its not really an issue from the ground. shafted to make sure i get into the ball with some conviction or it just wont perform. its been superb over winter. i will prob alternate this with my fave RC 14 and 18 into summer , where the ball sits up a bit higher making the pear shape of the RC come into its own. TOURSTAGE 701 This as a set ive been loving, i take them out on more traditional STYLE/ legnth courses where a bit more than bomb gouge is required. They are very shapeable, fabulous feel. The KAILI shafts makes sure they wont get lost to the left much and keeps them down a tad. Useable for all every condition imaginable. of all my fwds (which i have tousnads of...) i think these cud be the most general. simplicity to hit , launch is on the higher side , dont need to be esp genki with them. feel is superb ( of course , tourstage quality ) really really good set of woods i never paid attnetion to back in the day when they were released. SYB These have always had some almost mystical aura to them locally ,ive seen them about for a long time, t no one payed any attention to them intl. Origianly owned by daiwa and fourteen then , i dunno , time took over.... ONE WORD> POWERFULL!!!!!! thatsums this set up. they are punchy , full bodied, no nonsense , thicker , fuller, rounded,, no bits missing from the sole to look eye catching, these are nothing more nor less than players fwds. the shafts i have in them ( aliislei) are ferocious. this combo stand out feel wise , more than anyting else. there is NO WAY i wud take thee out of im not feeling very good, about my game , need to be strong and on song. they are better sutied to thicker lusher grass as they are so full but saying that i game them in winter and they are well, awosme when i get them middlesd, not so if i dont . i dont think they are overly forgiving as they are set up but i made them like such for the heat. ill have a tough time not taking these out in the summer or when its wet. the 3wood can EASILY be used as a drive alt. feel?... second to none . i put that as much to the shaft as anything. check the simlikcity of them, true player woods.

reality check. The bad shots were great. The good shots were ok. the great shots were bad. This head is one of the easiset heads ive e ever hit. thikng IS huge at address oval ,elongated face is virtually impossible to miss badly , even tho i did a cpl o times, its a very high launch, super light, easy easy swinging club. head didnt suit me at all. shaft is excellent,so easy to launch. doesnt seem to need much to ignite it very VERY nice kick /feel. in the mystery 12* fd and RC 18* it was superb.not touchinfg those clubs they are keepers. wudnt play either in wind , but in cool winter conds they are brilliant. they look awsomwe as well as a set. ill reuse the shaft in a better suited head and turn the turfrider into a beginners driver , or for the wife. that how easy it is to hit. Theres more bits missing from it underneath than there are bits ( which i hate ) , i think gives it its light/ high character. Not for me but a high capper .. senior.. junior... mid cap woman. yep not a bad head. so so easy to hit! P/S i had another game with it............ hmmmm re thining this a bit its shorter @ 44.5 inch and super light @ 303g it not long by any menas distance wise but my gosh its hard to miss with. just hits fairway after fairway. idunno i might keep this as is. the shaft is very key had my 2 wood in play with the exact same shaft goping head to head with a diamana X, chalk and cheese. the doggati is SO easy to hit, gets good height..... the diamana X is like a precision instrument. longer for sure, lower flight and much more dialeed in . both have roles for dif courses. these 2 , 2 wood pieces have made my 3 woods almost obsolete.

cpl of new builds using muziik dogatti six shafts. so many deep drivers thought id try a very large slightly elongated head this time, so went for a mystery turfrider. looks NOTHING LIKE my others. looks huge but easy to hit . i can imagine it launching high. dogatti shaft? yea.. mix of 50t 40t 5 axis blending. CPM 260 for a stiff 280 for the x. thats not hufflepuff flex, thats got some rigidty built a set of woods 10.5 /12/18 taking.em out on the morrow for. a try. ilike the look and feel in a fw so these might be a nice change from all diamana..

AND......... a sparkly new look, welcome back i guess !

tourstage X drive P51- 5 Recently ventured back to TOURSTAGE and YAMAHA driver heads form 2011-2013 ish First up the old tourstage X drive P51- 5 Ai Chan model . This was never one of my all time fave heads when it came out, my mate loved it , i prefered the YAMAHA range personally , the P-51 was very exyy and sold out immediatly but then just as quick found its way to resale shelfs bec ( it was not then , nor is now ) THE most consistant forgiving head . these days theres more chance of finding correctly specced TM club than one of these for sale i got one and ive been blowed away by its performace WHEN im driving the ball well , For periods when im hititng up down the centre line, this head , is right at the top of my woods , it was a pro level head for a reason and remains so now. ive hit this vs the new callaway green/gold pradise thing and there was fk all difference in disatnce when i middled it............when i didnt, well no need to go into that, lets just say the jolly green giant does have its upside.................. but that doesnt interest me one iota. To accompany this head i managed to get my hands on a set of 701 3/5/7 fairway woods i shafted them with diamana kaili 60s 70s 70x and tell you what they are just so sweet to hit. very powwer full delivery with an easy to hit head. great to look at as well.

ohsheeeeeeeesh thats one nice looking rod. i play diamana almost exclusively these days. the stinger , the X both 2014 and 2017, kaili and al islei are in 90% of my woods. but of late ive ben putting the 3rd gen illima into a few builds both driver and fw with outsandING results, i dont have to go as hard with that shaft to get cionsistant results. esp in winter. this one, looks awsome.~!

.
