  1. afte seeing this i stuck 3 wedge heads in a bucket of ginger beer. i know coke is sposed to clean em up reall well but just as a "thing" i put ginger beer on them beci had no coke..... well the first wedge came up , great and the rust was all blackened and chared , the dirt was all gone and the heads looked good enough to eat form so i threw 2 more relaly rusty heads in this am with another can of ginger beer, it seems, thaat that stuff is equally bad for u as coke is... ill snap some piccys tomorrow when they have had enought time but the first one struck me as wow!

  7. yes the wv i forgot tot mention, they are an excelent wedge shaft for spin and feel. but i was just trying to give a weight compariosn not an individual shaftive got the WV in my yamaha blacks, and man those things spin.i really like them, but i prefer them in SW only , they go too much in a 52 for my liking. i think the spinners do as well.

  9. i like open market pricng it makes goods transparent. and we can all se were the real market is. to me $900 is too high so im $425 bid for it. which i think is too low!!!!! i DONT want it but if he decides to sell to me at 425 il ltake it. to me thats a good buy.! who knows ??? if someones better bid than me. pls bid away! let the market OPEN UP............. to all !!!!!!
  10. after tyring every possible manifestation of wedge weight ,flex, length, over the last cpl of years, ive pretty much settled on a cpl of things. the lob wedge i use from 30 yards and in has NS 950s and a thin grip. in all of them. that way i can flop the daylights of it and it will stop on a dime. ive used DG spinners in LW and they spin well but are too heavy for the delicate shots., and modus 3 dont spin. i found the lighter shafts get me closer more often the sand wedge (55-57*) ill go heavier like , X100 wedge , DG spinner , NS protos 2f15x , monacco X...., bec ive found this style heavy so u can get down into the ball with a heavy head get it in the air and create very good spin. lighter shafts for this dont have the same effect they LOB more than spin. and they loose a bit of disperssion form outside 70 odd yards. . shafts like NS1150 x are good , tight dispersion , they launch VERY high , but kind of fall and plop not grip and bite. in the aw (49-52*) ill go super heavy . NS protos like the 2s14x.. monacco TX , NS sb blue X tip weighted,. x100 wedge , anything that will be heavy and very thumpy. for going right at the flag. i like a "heavy "shot for this club it lower and its straight. thers no preconcieved ideal why i did this , but after so so many test variations. this is the style ive got down to and my wedge play has improved a lot over the last cpl of years. the weight differnce isnt that big over my irons, its def noticeable but i dont think u can go the equivalent to this form say ns 950s.... its in line with the iron weightings,, ut just punchier. like 2 steps up. unti lthe lob which i need as a wand. best way to find out yr perrfect set up is to shaft 2 diffent 56* i really recoemend trying a DG s300 and a ns950 to see the differences. u will prob find immediuatly u like one "style, weight class" over the other. then go form there.
  11. when i tested a bunch of shafts in my miuraisms. the best suited for my swing which is pretty smoth methodical. its not fast and those heads were clearly the shimada tour 120 stiffs. i went thru dgs300/s200 (errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg...!) ns modus 3 120s Ns sp blue and orange. ( orange were next best) there were more but i cant htink.. anyway i took the shimadas out to one of the toughtest courses ive ever played on the central coast of NSW. called magenta shores. BRUTEISH....! (think kiwah island/whistling striaghts kinda style. )and the shafts were so perfect all my worries were immedaitly alleviated. the stiffs actualy l feel pretty good ,the X are a bit tougher and tighter. they dont like to be cut or drawn too much ive found, the stiffs , tho...., were very nice and as J says u dont need to worry about them they arent high /low /short balloony, they just work well. and they look great with the white decals. as for NS....., well the new modus 130s ,might be a real winner with t players who like heavier shafts
  12. was going to say mabe the ahina of the ali islei tiped a bit . that feels great ,(esp in fairwa woods) i presume u want ot keep to the same kind of performance. the crazy black LSII will suit. the diamana B is higher but well worth a go . def needs a tipping to bring it to the X-style tho, ull prob find it a bit whippier. controversial ,but the bimatrix isnt a bad pole either

    i like this one a lot, like his work in general. ive had a cpl pf machines. i got this so i sold the rest. . they are so interchangeable.perhaps too much if there is such a thing. the weight of this makes the feel pretty solid. but the copper insert softens it a bit. no milling also makes it harder. was quite a bit north ok 1K. was chris"CHoeps gamer.
