  1. prefer tour but GI also id look at . good cond only pls. before i go locally...........,
  2. nope and i very very much doubt many if any wud have even heard of these let alone HIT a set ... ive tried a cpl of them , the 7 and pw at a range session a year or so ago .. they were the best feeling club IF UIKE super soft ultra/ultra dense impact. and lets face it , who doesnt! they were ,if im not mistake crazy crazy expensive.. and they were jsut a bit nicer than these i loved these below but hey are a bit big for ur taste id think .. i had a cpl of photos of the orions but i lost my phone so i cant pop em up unless i already did that here prior.
  3. ur best best are the long necks or centre shafts like such..

    soryr , yea a bit tough to take a good snap of the sole flash i inside hard to get a true look but yea the paintfill was me messin about i can take that out in 2 mins alnd leave all black .....or empty no probs. new snaps up
  5. very dense muted , duller solid. not rubber soft. not marshmallow.. i played my benock dragon with my pz horizonatal milled GSS golds on sunday theres a humongous difference in feel. benock gives an immediate feedback to hands .....................like p-waves............before an earthquake.................
  6. mini driver pics finally added . for its size.. this things a dead set proper hammer
  7. yup v90 REG, not stiff .... they spin like blazes and ill tell ya, nothing feels better at impact............ nothign iive ever hit but they spin too much for me. miles too much. whne im an old crusty wrinkly these will be my shafts, so in like a cpl of yrs !! hahaha the 3001 STIFF are def a lower spin shaft and wud work a treat for a vast array of strikers im sure, i just cant get over how well they l fly. the difference in results was way way way too much to ignore, iwas considereing the v90s hard stepped but the cw just work so no point. im in a huge quandry right now to put these or the superpeening red into a set of new heads for my buddy............ ahhhh such is life and the quarries for a mega ho!
  8. actually the seven kyuzo as well is similar but yep u got a good one , its a squared off boxy design and if u like that kind of head suggest u try a gauge design CNC ,thats similar
  9. ok, so that EPON has a very disticntive EPON feel to it , the same as their irons . From what ive hit ,got in plumbers necks it kinda stands alone and trust me ive got enought suepr high end P/n but that model Epon is something different. The only putter i can say is simlar in feel is a Golds deep milled GSS. thats as close asur gonna get. taking a less exxxy putter the onoff labosepc from a few yrs back aint too far away either, other than that i cant think of any sorry........,
  10. SHIMADA 3001 cw steel. 98 gram ( play weight 94g) constant weight, mid kick taper tip and step profile for more advanced hitters that like a lighter weight, lower launch shaft . They say its anti left. I can neither agree nor disagree with that at this stage, they dont seem to like going laterally like DGs do but ive not hit them in enough heads to say yes/no but i had to pop up a sml review on these as ( right now) they have all but blown me sideways in my busted and broken state . Ive been injured .......again...... (arm)............., for just on 5 months now....... only started to play again so my quest to find a decent set has taken me to new and foreign brands. was gonna say lands , but thats never gonna happen, the chance of playing non JDM is zero , so thats not right.,. brands and models are my new thang........... cue- MIURA cb3001 dent sole / SHIMADA 3001 cw stiffs. Had the 6 (notice how i didnt say 7) iron shafted for a while , never quite got around to doing the set , was more into much more obtuse builds but i took this out with my ,as of late yamaha 2010/NSv90 reg set that im so in love with ( apart from the inexplicable big distance loss......, ) ive been banging my head to work out why , im not back to my normal distance/power/strenth, not by a long way , the driver is closest , prob 80% and i got a cpl of gooduns out to around the 270y mark and my fairway woods were pretty good too but my irons/wedges are a ways off still, ie/eg... my 9 iron on the 10th which i Tiger cut ,CCccccccRUSHED went a staggering 102 yards.................. !!!!!! So, instead of being 2 inchs from the pin where i thought it was going ,it didnt make the bloody green!!!!!! chipped up-s**t-2putt for bogie. errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!!!!!! This was a 100% centered shot , AS GOOD i think as ive ever hit a ball.................and its 30 yards short of its projected target..........30.......................crushed.........???????? do i need to sit down to pee now ??????? do i need to start lawn bowls?????? i dont get it.... whats going on??? i know im busted a bit still but this is just silly . So, i move to the next hole and hit my 2nd shot 5 iron into a 161 down hill par4 to be stuck in the front bunker after smoking it........ again...... another distance miss of 20+ yards, as you cud possibly imagine after 2 in a row { and several minutes of redacted expletives and club slammage into the turf later.........} i moved along with another s**tty bogie to the card from bird land! sigh........., it is what it is i say to myself liking my paws like a fat calico meooooooooowwwwwwww. Moving right along....... to the above mentioned par 3 , A super delishhh 160y down hill slightly left right crosswind hole to a left right kidney shape green . THIS time instead of the yammy 5 iron i grab the miuira 6 with the SHIMADA ,once again crushed the impact, pure sweet-love compression THS TIME to 3 feet, pin high and a friendly gimme-bird-dog to semi ease pain and frusration of the 10th .. This cant be shrugged off on just an explosion of adrenaline.. the flight was like watching a 50cal from a Baretta get schmokkkkkked into a tank ( seen that on telly, not live!) .... feel was magnificent................ so me thinks what the hell just happened ???????? there is NO WAY................., my arm " suddenly " got 100% better in the 4 mins it took to walk from the 11th to the 12th and i pick up 15 ish yards on a club up from what im used to..... no way, somethings woofy so i says to da fellas - " hold up fellas i need to hit another, that was unreal " low and behold same sweet impact ,same sweet result. ok.... so what the fk gives?????? Time for some science i say to myself for rest of the round . i need to dial that shot in for ever. So- lofts are the same. -length is the same weight its the weight as both sets are from beautiful s20c forged JDM SCHTEEEEEEEL its gotta be the weight, it is quite a bit different , but i thinks to myself the lighter club shud be, by all accounts go longer no .. ?????? well not in this case, 15+ yards needs to be investigated............ Now this Miura head IS basically a GI club it has a low COG, humongous cavity, big high face for misses up and away from the hosel , i took the weight difference last night and the miura is 13g heavier so thats not to be sneezed at. SPIN. its gotta be spin. the V90regs are , i keep saying are so magnificent feel, easy on the bod and so easy to play when i actually get into one they must just spin off the Richter. The SHIAMADA on the other hand DO NOT. They hit the ball nude and they fly OUT, not UP. i hit 2 on that hole to make sure it wasnt a fluke and nope there is a humongous difference. The miura heads are a low COG head designed to launch high and with shimadas are a mid kick 98g shaft that launch flat. the combo is SUPERB. i dont have to swing for the fences to launch it due to shaft and i dont get the ballooning im getting with the the v90r .. i can relax still and let my bod build back to power BUT get the added advantage of super easy club with a powerful light weight shaft. Im getting the rest of the set built this week , it takes precedence over all other adventures i have listed bec this is one GREAT set of bats i can use for a multitude of games. These heads ive had sitting idle for 11 years... They are responsible for my greatest ever ball striking round on Dec 24th 2007 ( with NS1050s ) so i just cant let them go no matter how funky i think i can get with blades. So glad i didnt oust them. For the record ive been playing NS 125s, 2g18s and super peeing orange/blue shafts as a rule for years with no issue at all over weight ( till very recently ) and most 5 irons i play are at 425-430 g with 437g the heaviest. , the miura is at 419g and the yamaha at 407g, thats a pretty big difference and one that still doesnt quite make sense to me, the only possible explaination i can thiink of is the spin. These shimadas hit a flatter , more ballistic flight with a solid ,firm (but not thick/ dense ) feel to them, sort of more akin to DG than NS, but with a thinner classier feel. They dont seem the prefer to bend laterally too much either , my thought pattern with them in play is go straight at the target dont try and get fancy ,just adjust flight by club length choice and really give it to them. I used to play play the 115 and 125 tours so im pretty au fait with shimada flight these are similar i guess but with a better feel and reduced weight but not strength . The super peening red i have just bought for a set of old callies might just go on hold for a bit longer.... as are the crazy cbi limited but thats bec i cant decide on a head! the super peening shafts have been my all time fave steel shafts ( non protos of course) but i gotta say these 3001s are holding my attention a lot more than i ever expected them to. You know u have a premium shaft in play with these , if your looking for a new semi light weight stronger steel shaft do your self a favour and put these on your radar.
  11. Yea.., i get that view of ping. good price regardless!!! As for iron shafts... ive had to drasticaly go back to beginnings ive been using all manner of NS light and regs. last few weeks from v90reg, 850 reg, even back to 750 wrap tech, then 1050. FINALLY ive gotten back to slightyl more mid weight this week, im hititng the shimada 3001 cw im rebuilding a set of miura cb3001w. i mena with those modle no how cud i not! ( before i put those crazies into play!!!) NS 950 as a light iron range i think are THE best steel iron shatfs ever made for pretty much every one ( except samsqauatches....) there is. if u need to get a bit more funky,. tip them a bit to get more flight and stiffen them up a tad. or just get the x awsome shafts, awsome flight, love these shafts
  12. quadra 2014 proto f3 is lights out!!! fire express 75 fw. diamana x diamana stinger. crazy fw longest yard wud be my top choices its for a (the best 5w) workable RC head. asking here forst before i fo locally
  13. 10 yrs of bags on TSG! WOW, i cudnt have guessed this place wud still be going today but alas here we still are , the few that used to be many....... . So, a seemingly hideous unshakable arm Injury in Dec has taken its hold this year , im hoping its not a going forward thing but at the moment things are not even on the same planet as what the once were, only been back for 2 weeks and well "back " is relative when u consider an 8 iron that used to go 155yards now goes 100ish u get where im at. The positive im taking out of this is the chance to try new (exciting???) clubs and shafts id never normally use. When once i was thrashing KYOEI custom blades infsued with essence of NS proto 2f15x or c10 proto hard stepped , im now using GI heads i wud have once used to hammer nails in with and shafts more accustomed to holding up tomato plants in my backyard that in my iorns on a weeekend but SUCH IS LIFE ! Seems uliities are back in the frame as they are so much easier to hit than long irons and wedges are all but a hopeless joke, i cant not get any power down and as of saturaday i cudnt hit a pw 90 yards Aahhhhhhhhhhhh seems my bank balance is under threat once again from the insideous virus of JDM club hoing! So here it is ( for now and beyond) and will stay somewhat similar for a while id think but its better than being not able to even pick up a club like the first 5 months on this yr has been. Literally.. unable to pick up a cup of tee till 4 weeks ago so it starts all over again....................................................., DRIVER- Onoff type D 10*/ labospec tataki 40reg, prob in the group of best beginners driver of all time im backing, with a great ,GREAT shaft, this head comes with the stock smooth kick shaft which by itself is adequate. well more than adequate really but with the roddio shaft it comes alive, when one is driving < 50% than one can, every inch counts both distance and lateral. THIS driver is a dead set knock out, i cant say that enough,, its insanely good, my swing speed id say about 80-90 mph now at best , ive used this driver a cpl of times a while back and it ballooned too far for me then, its my ( when once ) friends cud drop in for golf driver ,but now its lights out for me , i don,t (cant), try and kill it from the tee i just do a simple swing thru the line and sit back in awe really of how good this is without much effort , and no power at all. Im driving this about 220 yards and im literally just turning thru it and hitting thru the ball and it goes with minimal effort. ill NEVER get rid of this driver, its a life saver. FAIRWAY WOODS- All at sea. Have to rebuild one and its going to be something like a 2015 prgr egg with diamana red slightly fatter with a small compact head and a super easy face to strike and instant elevation , if they had one in 16.5* it wud be already built. UTILITIES- Simply cant hit longer irons for now so a ute is coming back. Driving irons are prob not a possibility for a long time either , so the bag fave HONMA twu is out.im thinking a nice EPON might do the trick they were SO easy to hit. not sure what model but Yamaha also used to make a good one as do Fouteen , they make a lot of good ones but the super softness of EPON will prob get a run, steel shafts are OUT so ill prob plum for a (the2nd best ute shaft ive hit) GD grey tour AD hybrid in a 65s flex. IRONS- Sigh................ this is tough. I have Yamaha 2010 forged with NS v90reg in play with a set of 2006 onoff 10237 with NS 850reg. these have been exceeeeeeeeeedingly good to restart golf with, no weight to throw about, so easy to hit the ball ESPECIALLY from a tee, very very highly recomended for beginner irons . this set up is really as easy as a set can get. i found my old set of MIURA 3001 dent sole ( that Mr Yururi, yes that one of YURURI fame made while he as at miura grinding for them way back when ), and ill either put a set of NS SUPER PEENING red or shimada 3001 cw in those, for a few weeks fouther down the track , they are a very heavy head so heavy shafts are a bit of an ask, i had these with monacos once upon a time and they were like hitting a ball with a lumberjacks axe! , honestly nothing plays better in these than NS 950s really but i just like a bit more non stock, a bit more ........esoteric, both these shafts tick that box. Have been scouring for a set of carbons i like but i just cant get a set that ill justify the build cost vs play ratio . best i can find are 200 bux a shaft for a set that will sit idle for a long time............. thats an ask++++. Have a set of crazy LTD that im building in a set of player heads for winter but still cant decide on which heads to match them with. i dont like MCI nor regios so im flumoxed and its back to steel . Tough year this one but at one stage as recently as a month ago i had ZERO confidence id be playing before summer IF AT ALL this year so im glad to play shiiiit in small discomfort than not at all . At least it brings with it reason to HO, an activity i dont need a lot of prodding to do!

  15. As much as i like to try/ se new funky designs i dont like(HATE!!) the cheap s**tty materials they always tend to use and the exorbitant price they charge for it , why , when i can use a precisise Sus303 delighful piece for pretty much the same. i ddint buy that direct force bec the price didnt seem right for it and any resale on it is ZERO.
  16. B/S and tourstage are the balls i mostly play and have for eons. like 80% of the time ive done countless side by side comparisons where ill hit 3 balls per hole over 18 with srixon, pr-gr, titleist callaway,honma, super newing u name it and i always seem to come back to the Bridgestones. something about the look and feel of them, i just think they look so cool at address and make me believe i can hit better shots, of course its mental but ill take any positive into a game , these make me believe ill play better , so i play them over the others, second is srixon then the rest i just dont dig as much , crazy but i never like titlesit, no idea why i just never selected them and when ever i do a 3 ball game they are my least fave. bizare the way the mind works and its biases, super newing are LONG they rock in the rain where theres no run an the balls sit better on the greens . they dont spin/grip so much to me and feel like they run a bit long on greens from chips, so on firm greens id never use them , but in the wet, oh yea! the surprise ball that iplay and enjoy but hate the look of are from prgr , they do a really nice distance ball, the egg balls cannon off the face but getitng them to sit is tough, the RS spin are really good to play but the colour and font is awful so i benched them, YOKOHAMA rubber make them so they prob know a thing or 2 about balls..........................
