driver comparisons...
crazy 435 9.5*--crazy la-bomba tour. square face. 323 gram. d3 swight.. 289 cpm. my second fav to hit driver. was for the most part pretty straight. distance was terrific. consistant length was very good. , misses as usual were blocks right, hardly hit htis left ever, even when i was trying to. just didnt wanna know about it ( except fopr thodd striaght pull fo course....!!!!!) played this in all conditions. form benign hot 42* c to 18* windy as hell. and for the most part i hit it very well. i knew ( and it proved to be true..) that the 45.25 inch on it wasnt suited to my swing, and as the tour went on..... the extra long drivers were getting sidelined for the shorter ones. but , and especially on nice days this was a really good driver. relly enjoyed its feel and its all over attributes. launch was LOW.. very low compared to the others i had and it prob suited the longer courses much better than the trickier ones. theres every probability ill take this in to get it shortened to 44.75 bec i really liked it. the shaft was my fav of all the crazies ive played in a driver.. was very happy with it. rate this set up very highly for guys wanting a very strong piercing flight very straight and with ability to get good roll out. this is as point shoot as u cid hope for. 8/10 TRPX D 9.5*--diamana X 70s this has been in my bag in JP for most of the last half of the season here with good reason. its higher launch and increased carry gave me a good advantage over my buddies here. once again, adn its no coincidence form JBEAM... it is all about aim kapoooooow! not much point trying to make this baby sing like a soprano. its just for accuracy. this was def NOT the longest of my drivers. but on more thna one occasion i pulled it out on tricky days, of which we had more than our fair share. and for the most i got it at its best. its easier to play than the crazy 435 labomba. (prob a lot to do with it being 44.875) but its not as long .i fancied this set up more on medium length courses. i played it on royal sydney and i found although i hit a prety decent amount of fairways.. i was left feeling a little under done. a cpl i hit i thought were "it" only t ofind .i was underwhelemed by the quality of the swing i put on it to where it ended up. saying that........... middle of the fairway aint a bad place to be..! but if i put that swing on a cpl of others i guarantee id be a club or two less into the green. i thought although this wasnth the longest set up it was prob the no2 in terms of accurayc. hence why in jp this was so good this year. accuray wheres theres very little roll out. id sugest this set up for guys wanting a higher flight with an ability to move it a bit left. JUST A BIT. and for the most . pretty stright and solid, this is a super solid all over build without excelling in any one department. def an all rounder MUCH more so than the above one.. 8.5/10 TRPX D waccine 88gts 44.75 x 330 x d3.5 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. the beast. didnt use this that much bec i was tired. and sore, this is NOT the driver to use when ur like this this is the set up for a one off perfect day long ..... long...long........... course. when ur swinging at your best. i dont think i hit anything better on the rare occasions ........ WHEN........................... WHEN.............. i got this perfectly. basically............. its a BRUTE. iused to think the GD p9003x was the one, but this out does that. easily.... at my swing speed, this is JUST starting to ignite. i mean JUST. and its more like a flicker, than an ignition. its an 83 gram moose slayer...! if u have any kind of flaw that day this will kill you. u wont get it out past 200 yards. and it will roll on the floor killing ants let alone worms. when u do happen to get it on "the day" however.................... i dont think theres much more id rather hit. and i dont think id ever risk it in tricky conditions. howver.. when i play narita in JP.. it will take all my relove NOT to put it in the bag, it belongs in a glass case with the words . for use on days when a elephant needs slaying . feel is terrific. its smooth and easy but u really have to be faster than i to get the most out of it. bigger swingers ONLY.. and i think thye wud LOVE this set up the head shaft suit each other nicely. prob a nicer play htan the diamana X. but well not as consitant. this needs to be played at 44 inch! 8/10 epon zero 10.5*--diamana stinger proto 70s 44 x d2 x 323 the speccy.......... tried so many in this head with varying results form down right unplayable to pretty spot on, but nothing has stayed in it , i thought the 60s diamana X was the best one, nad it was .................. till now............... tipped 1/2 inch stinger what a combo! best feeling driver of all time. bar none. nothing ive hit is nice impoact including the crazy 80 ls noir. ths stinger blew it into oblivion. 44 inch....!!!! 44.... how can u playa driver aqt 44 inch?? well the answer is. get a cut down stinger nad a epon zero. i was SO nervous playinmg htis bec i miss it miles right when fk up but hte 3 games i played with it i dont hink i missed a drive.badly at all. distance as fine accuracy was fine ,but its real deal is the ease i cud swing properly with it . no choking down, no long handle. just a normal swing andi cud step on it nad it was perfect. played it in somw pretty solid puff and it was NO probs at all .into the wind i thought id get blown over like maiden on her wedding night.. but not so. (it appears hths maiden has been there before..!) li iked to play this more than everything but i didnt get enough time with it to really enjoy it and get confident, it was built the day i flew out. unlike all theo thers where id had significant time in games to know it. i still cringe aqbit with the pon but i can safely say this set up is even better for me than the diamana X 60s. i can go a bit harder at it with more confidence im not gonna loose it too badly right its not hte longest ive got but it sure is a heck of a driver for anything as it proved it self in all conditions. veyr happy with how it went recomend it for good consistant ball strikers . looking for somehting out of the ordinary. bed once u hit the screws with this, u wil have trouble picking up anyhing.. i m an anyhting ever again. i have a winter driver in this i assure you. 9.5/10 ryoma v-spec d1 9.5* 1/2 * closed.--GDp9003x 44.25 x 330 my sdyney keeper. THE driver i got to when i cant hit a ball. quite simply put. MY driver. in the company of all the others it was in this was EASILY........... my most consistant driver. EASILY. its not short in fact i hit the biggest drive of the tour o nthe last day at manl y with it. with a beautiful high draw. it was a mnonster. but thats not where its beauty layed. its beauty was in its versatility. when i played comp. i played this . when it was blowing a cyclone, i grabbed htis. when i was on longy there was only this. i can choke down on it and hit it 3 feet above the ground 250. or i can take the long handle and swing outta my shoes. its dont matter i wil never over power this nad i very very rarely miss it. bec its so short the way to play it is just swing smooth and easy and the club des the rest. distance was DEF NOT shorter by a margin than my others. and as for consistancy well bec mY SWING flaw is over the top chopchop right ths slightyl closed face helped me get it squarer and made it easier to draw. cant say enough about this combo its my allrounder in every possible condition. its floorless. im pretty sure tho if uhave a rounded swing this might be a bit toomuch . its not exaclty anti left,.if if u struggle with hooks then id avoid this set up. ifu like shorter drivers and slice the ball and like going hard at it tho, well t his might be a huckelebrry u cud enjoy as much as i do.its so good........................ i left the fricken thing at home..! 10/10 kamui pro nitro 10.5*---trpx tuale SX i-drives beast. HIGH.........WIDE............... HANDSOME. the longest driver ive hit. end of chat. !

i got it form a collector who is very friendly with RJB. i also bought another one which im very enamoured with... one of a kinds. i was thinking of keeping the shaft in this and selling the head. or sending it to golds for THE custom of customs... get it to 360 grams.. that is another option. the longer his stays the more golds is looking viable... i love thefeel and the head look and shape but its to light at 340 gram for me taste.

Kamui Tpo7s nitrogen version. anyone?
Yestaerday after our game idrive and myskef played another 8holes of bombing I had my 435 crazy tour labomba with me and i was hitting it pretty well all day didnt miss too many. And. Got some good distance form it Then after i hit srixon zstar brand new pills one with the 9.5* 435 and one with jeffs kamui nitro 10* trpx sx flex. Tualle (???) i think it was. Called Both are 45.25 inch Specs on mine are 45.25 x d3 x 325 gram torque 289 Not sure on the kamui pro but it is about 15 grams lighter and the difference is very very noticeable The shaft easily held my swing and begged for more, pls sir can. I have another...... The differnce in feel was. Polarity the crazy set us is so electric so glassy so delightfull its impossible not to love it The kamui is duller muted and thuddy but.....ina very good way it makes u think u dont need to stress just step up and swing at it its a very soft feel kabooooooooosh. Much higher flight humongous carry and it draws!,!,!,!!!,!!! Iwa sgetting it to turn over no probs what so ever The 435combo ha , impossible utterly impossible that just leaks right ever so slightly no matter what swing. I put onit the results were clear , and definitive for me if i were playing on a wet track i wud be hittting the kamui . If i was looking for out and out distance it wud be the kamui its a very long combo and a very easy to use driver The kamui set it is longer , Clearly longer but the crazy is just so precise and tight i have been thinking about this all night bec. I really was quite shocked by how far The kamui was past the crazy i mean like 15 yards and perfectly struck middle d shots with both That can not be ignored However before all and sundry throw thier driver to the wolves and start a stampeed to get a kamu Iwud not ...... Be taking the kamui out over the crazy if i was needed to hit tight very hard drives bec the ability to sanp the kamui is very real and the consistant relaible fade on the crazy wud and shud get the vote if. Uwann amaximize fairways on tight tracks The distance gain of the kamui set up cant be ignored but i wont be sacrificing the consistancy of a power fade bec. I dont llose balls o/b that way It wud appear im destined to get a nitro very soon esp for japan when the extra carry is needed but for now what i have is sensational Kamui with trpx for distance Crazy for accuracy For me Both sensational drivers Steve ur right about that tour black shaft Its fkkkkkkn awsome !

What is the best feeling and longest irons you ever tested?
Longest .... Kamui 101 things are so jacked44* pw sheeeeeesh, they are also very close to best all round but just a bit too strong lofted Feeling.......well any epon really , the502 are just rediculous but i gotta say the yururi flatback raw heads were just amazing . Combo.....Well i wud say the epon af tours but they dont go real long and as. Uasked for feel nad distance Igotta say the prgr idbl with modus130 take some equalling 46* pw loft so u will get the distance. Uneed but they also feel fantastic The tr500 pip them for feel but the idlbl have a better shape Zero........ I mean zero Off set , these are truely THE best cavity blade ive ever come accross but a long way. I have a hard time putting anything else in m y bag the modus130 have a lot to do with it. As well they play awsome in the wind and. When its benign u can do anything. U like with them Yup prgr idbl . For my buck

True temper. Monaco shafts
monacco is livelier and a kinda deader fel , the modus are nude. bestway to describe te differnce is monacco achieve an easier horizotal draw . fade shot while the modus are much better for controliing height i used to thin kmonacco are the best for wind but ive gone completley the otehr way now i thin kthe modus dont get blown off target as easy. u might need a nextra iron for distance, but if u aim stright u can b pretty assured the ballwont wander off the path a much as the dgs...saying that if u need to hit a lot of cut/ draw shots... modus prob wont be the best shaft

Nippon WV115 - Wedge Build
i presume got the 110 or 115 what ever they are instead of the 125. so by playing them longer ull prob find they will give u less distance and more spin and they will go MUCH higher on the same shot as with a DG, esp as they are lighter. the wv are top class wedge shafts. id stick a bit of a tip weight in but not go too mad , or repalce them wit hte 125 an u can play th em identical... sell lem and get the 125s my answer
