alway wanted to do a MB thread. Maybe there is one somehwere in here. My take on them is... they a re mich harder to play consistently well with. they are punishing on non centered miss hits. They are much easier to hosel rocket shaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahnkooooooooo! into the woods. They are intimidationg to look down at past the 6irons. they blow the bloody door soffEVERY OTHET style of iron when u sweet one and u can become a mater engineer,.painter , sculpter, swordsmith when u finally .get em wired. to that end is why i play rhem 90% of the time now and cant see a.time any day soon when that wond be the case. sure they require way more concentration dilignece and confidence togame each weke esp in comps. but those shots where u see the mental pi then exe ute it with an mb ... is the WHY! SO ill get into a.few.sets ive games over the last 30yrs . ofi can remeebe tthem. ill pop up pics and hopefuul othern like minded bladers will join in. ps this is not . miura is best thread although theywill feautrure. i ll hoghlight others that i find as good as it gets.. first up...... TOURSTAGE US BLADE MR23s

KAMUI 14.5*- CRAZY FW 80 flex 7.7sx wow.... strong loft 3w. sleek shape.. target milling on face.. sheeeeeesh.. this is something good to hit off the deck.. FLIGHT IS lower but not low low. no danger of worm burning. Loved its flight. , distance is perfect gets right there and its very hard to miss with. VERY shapeable. , can move this with ease both ways doestn get hung in the wind. .felt in complete control with it in hand wasnt " ideal" from the rough both shape and loft wise, SYB were miles better but off short stuff it was fkkn awsome. i wont play in compey conds with long rough but on cut grass . i think these will be in the bag a most of the time (with the 17.5*)

Re shafting a cpl of MODARTS.. 14* , 16* i had a a diamana X 7 in the 16* but it was tipped a bit too much to be a good match for this head , the modart heads have AN extremely dense FULL feel to them and needs a livelier feeling shaft to bring it to its real life. its like hitting a benock putter the fleeing cant quite be rebuilt in another head, its def a one off feel. they dont launch high either for a low rider sleek head, its very much a fairway wood / non tee option and for slicker grass fairways. the 14.5* had a crazy black 80 but that was all but impossible to get off the ground unless i flushed it 100% of my ability. after hitting some diamana ILIMA red bords , yesterday it was CLEAR, this wud be a great match for both these heads with its higher , lighter, airier launch characteristics. ive got a ton of fairway woods, but nothing i have has quite the fell of MODART. they are not as playavble as others due to the sleeknes of them esp in the wet or the rough. but on true fast short grass. nothing i have is as satifying to hit...............albeit it needs the right engine.

KAMUI KP-X 9.5* matrix Hd6sx. 44 inch 312 g. red rover. built almost for looks alone. bud had a cpl of unsed marix shafts i bought and re shafted a cpl of older awsome heads with. tp6 got the srixon zr30. this one got the kp-x . u know... the older heads are just so much nicer fhan the new..... shafts. speechless.. cant wait to give this a wallop tomorrow. tomrrow is here. very ligh swing weight. very short distance. Very very straight low flight. This is a short par 4 specailsit. can move it about with ease but only a few feet. it likes low straight. Suitable for my home course on about 6holes. so def worth keeping. noted vs the same. build. with diamana stimger which is much more meaty full dense , longer distance. .. think ill swap the weights out in this to make head at 200+ shaft is excellent. looks, superb!

mizuno FRAME WALKER/ Kisho colab. kino sho makes the tbest fabric in japan. this is great. the smaller version. great tavel bag.!! condition is v good , AFAIK all pieces are working just fine but as its a USED bag . pls be aware there MAY be some frailties im not aware of. these sold out ages ago, $550 tracked insured , deliverd by EMS ( i think if they STILL take this size) + EXACT SHIPPING.

BNTM from EPON. Simply not using these, if i go EPON i go my muscle back af tours. shimada 3001 stiff constant weight shafts, keep the ball from ballooning for a lighter weight shaft. gripmaster leather grips in mint cond. cond is excellent. I will mention my build idea ........ BY EPON........ i chose the shimada bec i wanted a daily driver to keep the ball on a flat arc with a mid high peek that rolls over not sets , spins and drops like modus 130s do . they give me about 1/2 club longer distance . + they do NOT get affected by wind and are ARROW straight flight. not very laterally manouverable. staright daily drivers, that what these are. shipped,tracked,insured by EMS japan post ONLY > from JAPAN shipping incl . $1250

CALLAWAY RAZR HAWK TOUR 7.5*- diamana ali islei 73s 44.5inch right..this goes right its never even thought about going left. its about as ambi turner as blue steel. 465cc on this not really my cuppa tea, much prefer 440 but i just buit this on a whim to keep low on links... having trouble with it tho bec this fkkn thing will NOT GO LEFT . .straight is a miracle. its not a bad thing now... bec i know where to aim bec its going right. not as good as the ft9 tour amd proto but i got its character sussed on sat snd its got s place . i wont be pulling out often but iwith my increased head speed again i can deal with it. dry short fairways only.!! its a road runner. its a beast.

ah................... those honma UT are still well represented in my bags, ive not found a ute/di thing that can beat those , tried the newer version and these ones are better.!

TOURSTAGE P51 .. 9.5* DIAMANA ALI ISLEI 63x 44.75 x 314g d1 stuck a tip weight in it to get the sw higher than c9. played it yesterday at longy . GOOD. its stying here , not as tight as the stinger version BUT better feel . a bit more lively in the fingers. wonderfull sound. the aliselei in all heads had a dsitinct feel/sound. very enjoyable to play . sites among the top of my driver list. very playable ,slightly workable thru the air if required , more to so than the boron ver. excellent driver.

Stuck a shimada steel fw shaft in both a toursatge / RC 7w for a bit of weight. SUPERB!!!!!!!!! no ballooning , really smooth transition. ,can feel the club at all times. mid high fligh lands super soft. can move it just a wee bit. NOTHING not too like about this as a set up. plays A as good as anyone cud want, versatility of the 7w can not be understated. that club is getting a ton of aitime nowadays

god no... how many years on is rhis and.. ImStill playing the diamana stinger in the same heads from yamaha syard callway tour, tourstage, kamui pro. i rhink i have 11 drivers now with the stinger. i love the way it performs . it looses nothing to anything newer ive tried. Looks better. feels unreal. doesnt warp bemd or stray. i honestly dont know if i can play another shaft . 2009>2025 nope , this one still wins for me.

.

plus..less off set just looks so much better!
