  1. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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..
  5. AND......... a sparkly new look, welcome back i guess !
  6. Ho hum .. 2yrs on and STILL Being so unispired by anything wood esque bec. on course i saw no discernable difference to make me swap out what i already have , i continue to go back in time (and prob always will............) to find masterpieces. Recently back to TOURSTAGE and YAMAHA driver heads form 2011-2013 ish First up the old 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 ! It was a pro level head for a reason and remains so now. ive hit this vs the callaway green/gold thing thats out now 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.................. bu t that doesnt interest me one iota. i guess itle like a merc from 2024 vs a gull wing both get to from A to B i guess but when u put the hammer down .. well.................. , To accompany this head i managed to get my hands on a set of 3/5/7 fairway woods to boot , shafted them with diamana kaili 60s 70s 70x and tell you what they are just so sweet to hit. This is a set i take out pretty regularly but tend not to when its windy, or the fairways thin. this set , i absolutely cherish .
  7. 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.~!

    well.......... im 99% sure you wont get any argument from anyone thats got one. My 65xs in a kamui pro tp 09 10d* head ive had for about 7years i guess. i actually dont use it a lot , unless its a money game or club comp ........., i try and get others to match it, some are close but no cigar my kaui tp 07 10* with diamana X 2017 is pretty close but its just a bif different. i actually think this is my best suited driver but its not quite 7d esque My jbeam 435 9.5* / diamana stinger 70x is prob the closest to the 7d in terms of overall performance, its real clso, only thing thats not there is the feel , the taughtness , rigidity and lack of lateral movement are almost inperceptible to split, the 7d set up flies higher, feels better ( its SO good ) , from what ive hit and thats a lot , boron has a solo disticntive feel to it thats not pleasing to the hands /ears like the X or 7d is , most people that hit mine dont like it at all, too dull, too thuddy,, feel is dead they say , but when i get that onto a course and see where most drives end up i knows why its so reliable . love to get a set of thier irons shafts , they were rediculolus, as was the putter shaft but 3billion bux is just abit out of my league.................
  16. immacualte cond. nigh a mark,blemish on them. have the 6iron shafted with MCI carbon for winter striking practice. unbeleivebale match just as a guide!!!!! what happend to the 8,9,pw? im not sure but its certianly one of lifes great mysteries.................., $500 delivered by jpn ems, tracked insured . .

    shaft wise for fairway woods 1-crazy fw80 as a straight up , the fw shaft , esp for the harder htting fairway wood lvoing player i dont think anything is at the same level. 2 - diamana X70s has a feel that is out of this world and performance that matches ,just a bit thinner imapct than the crazy 3-quadra fire express original yellow/orange fw is the next best FW shaft proper after the crazy fw 4-graphite design p-9003x and z-9003s back in the day when i had some oomph were brilliant. 5-fujikura waccine shaft was, IS INSANELY good for a 2 wood or short driver at 44inch. All rounders i dont go for anyhing other than diamana blue, ali islei, kaili, illima are in 90%+ of my builds i do for folks. i think the kaili is the best value allrounder there is. and that blue looks knock out. my best ever fw builds , not 2 woodsm 14*> i can think of royal collection 304p-diamana X 70s (gamer now)cant get that out. syard xv -qudra fire express fw 75s crazy fw -crazy fw80 callaway erc fusion- diamana ali islei 83 s prgr egg spoon original- fire express fw 6 75s ryoma d1 f3-GDp9003x royal colllction bbd s type 2 - diamana blue 73s so many others ive dont but id take ANY of these to the trenches with me and be assured of perfection. over all the best all round head wud be the royal collction jp104 and with the kaili in it ???????????? well ive bullt 10 of these for my buds over last years to chants f ; oh mu god how goos is this! gotta say i have them in oz for links play as well and they dont misss a beat. dry or short grass the ryoma,prgr egg, masda, kamui pro light out

    if i play on my short par 5 course ill take 2 utes instead of FWD but on my main course (7000) yards ill take 4 woods. -my2 wood i hit on 3 holes to make sure i hit the fairway then long iron in -3 wood on 3 of the par5s -theres 4 par 4s that need driver 3 or 5 wood to get onto more oft than not these days. utes just wont make it. -3 of the par 3s are the hardest on the course play 190-205 yards and they are 5woods most of the time to stay out of the water in front. u gotta be long. i look fwd to hitting them. esp off the deck on the par 5s and giving them a good old wallop my fave club in the bag to hit now.

    what set up do u use? or has the ute versatlity usurped them? i still game 2 or 3 everyweek. 10.8/12 14/15 17.5/18 depending on course length and bunkering. got a few utes i lilke by royal coll and driving irons by prgr and honma but i much prefer good old fwds still gaming my royal collections, crazy fw , kasco and solid contacts most of the time , askin g bec im just building another batch for people. and for the reference is hard not to put the old diamana kaili in them. that thing is SO precise and easy to use. wonderous shaft with any head
  22. wonderful head.. id never heard about it till a month back. now i have 3, from what ive seen so far , it looses very little to more advanced heads........................ really like its feel sound and look. ind of reminiscent of the kasco 340 oh that was a great compact head to play.... 460cc might not be for everyone .
  23. srixon zr 30 - 9.5* -diamana X 70s yamaha v 203 10*- diamana X 70s yamaha v 203 9* -diamana aliislei 83s 44 inch builds to be done next 2 weeks..
