  1. awsome flick good ending!
  2. right-o... iwas foraging thru my hoards on the weekend and i rediscovered a cpl of former gems. older but senastional utilities that have been "hiding" since i cant remember. 2x "adams idea black super hybrids." which, i think, are the aboslute bees knees for utes. and a cpl of shafts u just wont find easily. shafts are the roddio w-8wa and diamana thump. lofts 21* and 19* 21* has the diamana thump 465 X- hybrid shaft 19* has the roddio w-8wa 3.1 torque, 81.5 gram these are both in unbelievably good condition. i cant think of the last time i used them. the roddio 21 is basically purely made for accuracy its gunbarrel straight, tight like a tiger. point shoot worry no more. the roddio has some degree of whip to it, it was made to be a good distance ute. it was WAY too long for the 200 yards par 3s i built it for hence i made the 21* which , from memory was spot on. they are spotless. make me offers on them but lets say. $175 each shipped. the shafts on these cost me about that much , let alone the bulding , sourcing and heads! these SHUD suit someone in a flash

    have to jumpin here for a review and a question... i managed to finally procure one after a long time of baulking, basically beceasue my previous foray into prgr drivers hasnt been good . so ive passed on them. t i got one in a trade that was shafted with a fubuki alpha 60s in it. not what i need but i was just determined to see how the head went i ranged sat morn in spectacuar conditions , i also took my maruman conductor with diamanan B 60x as well .. were both light weight which is perfect in winter. 310gram for the egg and 312gram for the maruman , which is 8.5* well.............. wish id taken the plunge on the 7 earlier! the shaft was obv not for me as almost every shot i hit whistled off high right and slicematron, the maruman was a nice higher consistant stright fade to small draw. i wasnt hitting the midlde a real lot it was really early seaon striking blues..! , but i got close to the centre enugh to make a minds eye of them both and i was swinging well within myself. the idea waas a simple test to see how the head went well i think i loved it th set up is bizare the centre of the club at address looks like its WAY WAY right of were the sight dot is placed and the toe angle is extremely high to the sight, but not at impact ,its BIZARE.. it looks like the toe is 3 inchs in the air, but when uhit the ball tis dead square. iloved it!!!!!! impact is magnificent. its oneof the nicest impacts ive hit on any drivr. it is on the bigger side, at 460 cc, but it looks bigger in hand than it does on the ground which is nice doesnt look like ur hitting a shoe box. trajectory was interesting. its NOT that low and its def NOT that high, vs the 8.5* maruman which was noticeably higher and higher spinning ( but obv not at 8.5* a balloon ball!) never the less it was higher . the egg was DEFINATLY the more powerfull driver. and the maruman an easy peasy easy swingin fairway finder/ eneded up really liking the consistancy of the maruman and the ease in which i had to swing with it much differnt to the egg7, which at a slower swing speed. the egg was almost impossible to hit my choked down stigners with, and equally ahrd just by choking down a bit ( 45.25 inch) made it quite eratic. .im presumning............. its the incorrect SHAFT here . so the egg7 is DEF getting reshafted my question is to what ? i want to play this at 44.5 inch bec ithink is so damn powerfull and needs utmost control for what i want, im already thnking this cud be one of if not THE links driver of drivers. or hawaii my thoughts immediatly were the dia X of course but ive got a waccine 88compo and a stinger 70x that are unused. anyone got any thoughts ? btw........ the maruman conductor 8.5 with the diaB 60x is a heck of a driver!

  13. my 435 is 44.75 x 323 x d2.3 with the 435 u dont need to hit hte sweetpsot so much to make it fly .., i find that head very easy to hit consistantly. 425 is NOT high launching unles ur hitting it 11* which i beelive a lot of guys are gettign ebc they didnt get the loft checked ! ]make SURE u get the correct specs on these as they are NOT labeld with the lofts o n them so so so s os so many of thee are sold used here with NO clue of hat lofts they actualyl are and what degree of face angle they are

    thanks guys cpl mpre gone the yururis gone left is the 61* lob wedge in immacualte cond... the miuras gone, cpl of bolds gone still plenty more to interest fellow wedge aficionados. some great wedges here.
  15. agree wholeheartedly with the doc..... i do have vast experience with the dia X , its my most used shaft , so i can add what this brings to both these heads for you. firstly as much as everyone says its a LOW launch shaft it is , in fact in play a pretty mid ish kinda flight. i found both the diamana W, and GD z9003 shafts MUCH lower. but i prefer the dia X. in the 425 u shud be a good striker to get the msot ouf otu it or u might find yourself walking thru long grass over on the right a lot. similar with the 435 but to a less extent. in both heads, the ball WILL launch lower, than in a lot of other heads. save for the ryoma v-spec. which is SO point shoot its scary. u might find .......( like i did ) that hte 425 will get u more distance. the slighty smaller head seemed to get me longer balls, but also more eratic. itsd NOT a distacne shaft, u wotn be breaking long ball records with htis combo. but if ur a good stiker , u also wont be loosing any thing snap hooked. for slightyl more accuracy it go the 435, btu for ab it of alternate thinking on the tee id go the 425 tour. or get both.

    no need to experiment with the new stock shaft.. in the egg..... none what so ever... i hit the m-43 and it was perfect for me.i ended up getitNG A m-40 bec i needed it in a hurry nad it was lightyl too whippy so i pulled it and put a rediculous shaft in it but really therres ABSOLUTELY no need. get the right flex and ur away. def go the new one for a tee shot over the previous models. but off the deck the slightly sleeeker older models might be a good bet. as for the s-yard. well thats a beauty as well. Iwont split them in better terms as ive got both and i think both are excellent right now my fw in bag are the egg 3w and the syard 5w. id take a look at what u like to look at at address . bec. both are excellent
  17. this might be the first combo set ive actually ever seen. i rem the days when a few were ordered but its . def the first ive seen for sale. ,lovely set!

    i got to hit a test 7i a week ago i . had it persoanlly shafted with an NS ora shaft so i cud garner its true potential.. well its soft all right but its also dense. so it doesnt get too lost everywhere on the face which i really liked. i was initially dissapointed or rather more surprised really , bec i was expecting a really aggressive players club , but EPON it seems, once again..... just dont have it in them to go "full tard." they just cant go all out . which is not a bad thing mind you..... , but when ur expecting it and u see it for real its like mehhhhhhhhhhh another one..... BUT THAT JUST ME !!!!!! FOR ME.................... it has slightly more off set than i was hoping/liking to see. although tis not really a lot and its CERTAINLY NOT a bucket... it is there and tis noticeable. i had my aftour with me as well and my prgr idbl so i got a proper comaprison, i cudnt say for certian if it had more or less than the af tour , and i dont actually know the numbers if it is or not but for sure it was noticealy more than the IDBL. the sole is thinner. and its a slightly smaller head . albeit a bit longer for its over all size. which prob makes for slightyl easier striking and the impact is just sensational . i mean really really good! i was moving this everywhere, realy trying to get a feel for it nad i got it to do what ever i was trying to do plsu some. so it has al l lthe characteristics of a proper playes iron at imapct. thats for sure..! and as long as u have not seen a reall zero offset iron u will be taken immediatly by this club id imagine, it is quite agressive for a small cavity . the cavity itself is interesitng, im not sure what the design MO is on it i guess it helps makes the imapct sensational but i dont see any real perferormce adhancement in it . but i m sure there is , thats for the tecnical guys to add thier part here....... its a small pocket cavity IMO with a slightly longer blade. thin top line for sure. i was thinking what grass this wud suit best and i figuered it wubd be AWSOME on hawaii style or a . softer shorter cropped grass style ., this wud be super.! it grew on me .. (after my inital dissapointment ) i picked it up agan a few days later and just looked at it , waggled it and thought , yea i cud prob play these with no real problem...... a set of these in a bag wud look the nuts. i guess ill prob look at a set later in life . over all id think these will appeal to a heck of a lot of guys they are def a bit more palyer esque than the 302s, and even the personals. and right there with the af tours. i think epon will do well with this model. they seem to have less off set than the persoanls. ( agian i dont know numbers , this is just observation) but the personals to hit are just out there on thier own IMO. they def grew on me and when u hit them, prety sure any reservation one might have, will just fly instantly.............out the window.!
