  2. i mus tahve nissed something................ what the hell are r ocketballz???????????????/
  3. i aint hit that one ive never hit the tj range.
  4. yes they shoudl indeed. u hititng the non tours better?
  5. well results i noticed after my humongous session outdoor today with all my drivers the sigma 50 is most def not low launching. is high , and low spin, its super stong as well, really liked this thing. ls noir is easily the lowest spin , both of mine were almost shot putt style. and hte cb50 was somwhere in between. adn the best feeling, its not low tho. the noir was pretty low actually , in my roma it was significantly lower and in my yamaha tour it was noticeably lower than the cb-50 the cb 50 i preferd of these. heres something i noticed as well the kamui 456 and 787 muziik x was really low. nad maybe too stiff for me. i struggeld to get this left all day, the others i had wired, this driver combo is massively long, if u can gte it airoborn. im 112 ish SS and it was too much for me most shots. LOW laucning LOW spin LOW trajectory., rob this is worth a look swriolusly it was noticeably stiffer than the other i was hitting,
  6. correction............. You could plate the AFT's with cement and they'd still feel better than most. "the" most pure feeling Irons on the Planet.

    im going to re grip the sb-01s with a much smaller grips than the gripmasters , thoese leather things are humongously big and , they look awkward on the tiny heads. ill give em another bash see if i cant get soem more love out of them , i shafted them up with the monaccos, they are pretty good shafts, still not a lot of feel, but more so than the DG range. if i cant get the love i want. someone might get very lucky.
  11. ive used ................, crazy black 50 cb50---- (new one) in my yamaha tour 2012 head. this will never e ver come out. over all disatance , flight , trajectory stingy feel, my most complete crazy shaft. love p[laying this thing , i get those high soaring bombs i normally dont go for in favour for the low scuttlers. but in japan ,this thing is just peerless LY 01--- thought its was light , realyl taught and the ebst shaft i nthe jbeam 435 at 46 inch tho i ddint like the length of it, impossible to over power crazy black 50 ( original) -- hard to make go left ,in my 2010 yamaha tour head, this was the best shaft , nice kick and over all very electric feel crazy black 80 ( original)-- in my jbeam 425 tour ad infinitum, these suite like red wine and cheese bit tighter flex than the 50 prob not as long , but more accurate (i think) crazy black 80 ls noir -- the most overall accurate shaft i have , it must be , itend to miss the fairway the least when this comes out in my ryoma adn yamaha tour 2012 heads, dont find it overly long, but ultra relaible crazy 50 sigma--- heavy beast. feels like ita a mid kick ,can feel the sling thru the ball when i have a crack at it. still under ref on this one, in my rrazy 425 solid contacts right now. they seem prety happy together, tends to go high but strong crazy black ls 2--- the lowest shaft iver ever hit. the worm burner, took thisthing in a crazy 450 to hawaii and the ball didnt get more thna head high the entire time. great over there, not so good in japan tho. felt like hitting a piece of railway sleeper shaving, "crazy" stiff. but in a good way. crazy boron--- just had a cpl of hits with this played bad and well with it, feels a bit softer than i expected at first, then after a few whacks it felt perfectly fine. just gettign used to it , but itink it will be ok, its in my epon 101 at the moment, pretty sure this will be ok, ranging it tonight to make sure. not dissimilar to the diamana stinger maybe a touch softer. crazy 80fw and UT both the best there is no question about it ,everyhing about these are awsome best of these??? the ute shaft, thes driver shafts are just so close ,its allrealtive to what u need, but the ute shaft. man oh man thers is nothing anywhere close to it. these are in a cpl of tour edge exotics i have and the differnce i nthese compared to the altus matrix thing?? oh there is NONE. the crazy blows the matrix of the planet. the differnce is startling, but if ihad to make a choice in driver shafts id say that crazy black 50 in my yamaha tour this yrs is just lovely, they noir is one i shoud use in comps , but that sling offt he face , the 50 gets the nod.
  12. Yup delicious got a 3 & 4 from2009 great di it was this or the fourteen the srixon is softer the fourtern is more robust
  13. the kamui is a good drvier head as well. forgot about that little black duck. god its low for 9.7* its low!
  14. i have the 435 with p9003x in australia and its wya too much for me. and at the hardest i can swing it just starts to get going. just the 83 gram weight of the shaft has a lot to do with it, i went head to head this agianst the sigma noir , same weight and i think the GD is the softer feel but the better shaft to go hard at of the pair, and its more controlled of them, the sigma is a whip. the perfect club the crazy factory boys selected for me at 110 mph in feb last yr, was the sigma 50-435 head ,they said thats the perfect combo for me., personally i though it weas a tad too much. but the numbers on the screensaid otherwise. its was clearly the best perfomer for my swing. i just didnt like it,i liked the 425 and the 450 better. . ive had loads of differnt shafts in the 435 and for normal conds the original LY 01 was the best , its really light it was 46 inch tho, i hated that , thast why i changed it. i hit the 435 the other day at the lakes, the aussie open course i took the 435 gd out and it was great , its so low its rediculous and so straight. the shape of the head is just perfect for the hammer time guys. much better thna anything else i can think of. the ryoma, i think ull over power pretty easily. a lot of guys that hit it hard say this is too high spin. persoanlly i dont find that, but for distance id use other drivers over this, this is my best fairway finder but a few yards shorter than the yamaha and j beam i feel, (enough for me to play othe drivers) the epon 8.5 102 is another goodun, the ONLY thing i found i didnt like about this was the feel was really soft , i played it really well, and it went a long way, and not a low as ud think. its kinda like the yonex nextage form 2009 , i felt that i wasnt getting full bang for my buck. i was ,but it didnt feel like it in compoarison to others. the best shaft i had in it was the quadra proto, that suits this head brillinatly. ull get plenty of rollout with this. and @ 8.5 the quadra just gets it a bit airborn for my SS so its doesnt wormburn. now, the yamaha tour, its smaller than the rest at 415 cc approx. iits a rounded square body with a small elongated face. i have 2 of these now with a crazy 80 noir and a crazy black 50 in them. i like the black 50 best, it goes high. the noir is much lower and more controlled. can swing as hard as ilike at this with NO probs. the 2012 yamaha tour head is my fav. head ive hit., the distance i get is terrific, its super solid in the wind and i can go hard or slow at it and get great results. its just not as thumping as the 435 but NOTHING ive hit is. but its damn close! ikeep the 435 in oz to hit really low runners in summer wind on links tracks. i will use the yamaha for everything everywhere all the time its a step up form last yrs, slightyl differnt shape, bit more compact, the 2011 was a great evolution form the previous yrs, its shape changed dramatically form 2010 and before, to 2011 and this yr they just refind it and made it more powewrfull i WONT be buying another driver this yr . the only other oine i can think of is the jbeam 425 tour thats a differnt look to the 435 that might work for ya. simliar to the 435 but not as boxy but for this yr , the yamaha 2012 is well strikingly good.

    Miura

    think.. miura hit to millimeters af tours hit to feet. af tours immeasurably easier to hit consistantly to feet than miura to MM but miuras great when ur having a good day, the miuras are very very small
  16. the monaccos are good mate. i dont find them flighty one iota, they are much nice than the s200-300-400 x 100 range. but as u hit the ball so ahrd, the x 100 might be the go, they feel bloody awful, but in my yamaha tours and yonex ezone irons, i gotta say they are really really good performers, but feel shiiiiiiiiite. the shimada tours in u can get them in x and hard stepped u will be ok, but the ones i use in stiff will most def be too flexy for you. the modus like wise, get the top flex and hard step them or ull be all over them. NS sp blue obviously spring to mind, these just work ,and for YOU, i doublt ull find better suited. unless u can gert a set of protos form the tour. for you, the SP blue i think would be ur best bet
  17. yup and its really high spinning , i had a hit with it, it backspun a lot really high and dropped. i told him to put a diamana kalil in it , that keeps it low and straight. morte i hit that shaft , the more i like it, isnt quite a crazy elevel, but for the price differntial, i think its the best of the next level down. got these in a lot of my fairtway and utes now great shaft.
  18. 9* yamaha tour head or reshaft the 435 qwit ha graphite design p9003x and be amazed cant htink of anything else at yr SS that would suit better to be honest.
  19. gents this pays at 46.5 inch which is too long for my friend, has anyone cut this shaft? i told him not to, nad to replace it with a lower spin one just want some feedback if anyione has done this or if tis even advisable. cheers stew
  20. ahhhhhhhhhh im going thru my stash this week new yrs clean out ill tell you know theres a cpl of pieces , my uberschloken good ones that i might eek out to the world things ill guarantee you u cant get yr mits on. im pondering . cpl of v special pieces and a general well this is left over form my carnivorous disecting of great clubs i didnt get around to re making im in heavy thought
  21. put it his way i JUST get it all on the plane with a fam of 4 and silver membership at qantas if only i was normal
  22. right 2012 bag....., i take as my annual jaunt back to oz for links torture the end of the yr not the beginning , as its a celebration of all things golf and i dont let anything stand in the way. 15 days . 14 days of golf. fan tastic......, played some terrific tracks this time as well. long reef(home) NSW, one of the worlds truely great links, the lakes, home to the aussie open , magenta shores resort, THE most brutal beast of a thing , can verge on unplayable at times in big wind. and the homely feel of the new 9 at manly. was really windy the whole time so, needless to say my scores BALLOONED numerous times. .... my handi tho somehow stayed in tact. , thankfully the last 3 rounds i managed to get things wired in the comps and reduce a cpl of high ones coming oiff the other end. the clubs........ drivers........ after a few experiments with all and varying. i knew from previous trips i need a driver that doesnt really go uber- far but , more one i can rely upon to get me on the shorties under pain of death. that yonex nextage 9* from 2 yrs ago. with a GD p9003x at 43.5 inch was just magnificent.just perfection, cud maybe have done with an extra 0.5 inch just go get the SW up a bit, but after a cpl of rounds ihad its measure., was using this for stingers off the tee most of the time. i gamed this about 9 times, by itself numerous times and with another driver when the darn wind wasnt knocking me off my feet. so good was it , its been left in oz for all time. wehn i do return ill get a cap i n the top of it and play it at 44 with a skinnier grip, u almost cant make the ball go left with this beauty. this head is so much better than the new one its almost inconcievable that YONEX changed it, the (power ryo yeilds...) made me yearn for my jbeam tour with the crazy 80 at 44.25 inch i took out of the bag for weight restrictions. the "solid contacts " designed for (crazy 425) with crazy sigma 50 7.7 flex @ 44.75 inch & 10.5* was a real find, the ball soared heavenly and straight, on sedate days this was a pleasure to play. its heavy as old boots but such a strong flight. was a last minute plan to make this and it seemed to work very very well. SOLID CONTACTS head was used by ryo ishikawa ( before he went to yonex as a 2 yr old or what ever rediculous age he was when he started winning tournys) and im here to say its not a bad piece at all. very close in looks to the epon 101 more solid tho. a more robust felling at impact. the Epon is a bit mushier , this has a more oooomphy feel. il ike it alot, that got gamed at the lakes an d it held its own with aplomb. its staying as is. i have the feeling this will be very good in JP , esp when theres no wind. the 2012 yamaha tour ,with a crazy 80 ls noir 8.2 @ 45 inch & 10* wow, this is driver i want to speak about. it is CLEARLY my best driver i have . the spin is low ,the trajectory is mid its gets plenty of carry and the most pleasing aspect was how much roll i get with it. over all No1 its was my longest driver for distance and can play this in rain hail shine. impossible to over power, lord knows i tried to swing out of my shoes on the 14th down hill at longy , and yea the ball gets to where i want it + a bit. it was a toss up putting the sigma in this or the noir,, the noir suits it superbly. once again getting it to go left, bah humbug, good luck! inn all honesty if i was to have only one driver it wuld be this or the one i have here with the crazy 50 black. the crazy black has a lot more kick to it, but the noir is just one piece of solid flex. totally differnt style to the 50. the 50 feels much livlier, but the noir is prob tighter. these two drivers will take some beating, or actualyl competing with. its early days but i cant see too many rounds without either of these two in my bag. the jbeam 435 9.5* 45 inch GD p9003x BRUTE. there should be a sticker on this saying "warning" DONT PICK UP ME 5 UNLESS UNLESS U CAN swing close to the speed of light! oh brother what did i make! i made this at easter last yr and left it in oz, (for a reason i now remember) its is just raw power, sheer , utter driving power. nothing more ,theres 0% subtelty . 0% moveability , and 1% feel. if ur a really powerfull driver. and i do mean i mean really , then this is hte club for you. i hit 1 ball with it that i literally just stood up to and swung as hard and long as i cud , and it came alive. i figure its about 3 strengths too much for me. on a regular basis i cant replicate that swing everytime lord id like to bu i cant , i just hit lt like prince fielder getitng a fast ball over the middle . literally ! but the one i got was amazing. gents if ur big and like to clobber it, MAKE THIS DRIVER NOW. u wont regret it the irons........, 2012 yamaha tour ... srixon pro 100 blades.......yonex ezone blades.. vey difernt stlyes here, nothing same same what so ever. very very good choices. the yamaha tours got the nod when the wind was very strong the extra forgivability was sorely needed. the flight on these with the proto shafts was high but strong, i found i cud move the ball about a little bit , when i really needed to , but when i neded to keep it low and straight with the 5i, i realised i needed the 4. the lofts are strong but i found i really longed for a lower launching iron a lot of the time. (in japan tho not neccessary) i played these at mgenta exclusively 3 times. they are perfect. the ball still stops nively on the greens and the look of them inspires confidence at address. veyr very good irons, very good on the tight stuff and the fat sole didnt really affect me what so ever. def not as "direct" as my other blades but as a club to get to a point "down there" in shiiiity conds. i wouldnt weant to hit anything else. the srixon pr 100. the look is quite rounded. the top line thin. overall i think these are lagerish for a blade but a lovely frame of the ball at address. soft as butter tio hit, NO idea where these are made but boy they feel pucker. i used these when it was bright sunny and no wind , and iwas glad i did they are perfect. these arnt as dynamic as the yonex or miursims but then again idont want htem to be. peole had isues with the PW but i think its pretty danr nice. very thin soles makes hitting down oi nthe ball a pleasure and limited bounce to top the ball. i figure ill be gaming these a LOT this season now ive pulled the DGS and repalced them with the NS proto 2 f15 i figure ill stick these babies i nth bag when i play longer straighter tracks like narita or old orchard. they have a bit more substance to them , they will get a lot of airtime this yr for sure. the yonex ezone blades -- DG x100 3-pw WOW they suit my eye so well the rest got benched the last 4 days in oz. tiny little rions , tiny thin soles, tiny topline, off set in a weird way, but to my liking. not realy off set but bent rounded neck that looks straight, god how do u describe these at address. put it this way, a lot of people wouldnt like this look. im sure. i .love it. i love it as much as ilove the look of the 2008 yamaha tours. that much. now i get the feeling that the x 100 dont spin a lot?????? man these things just booooooomphed of the face. played these at NSW, the lakes and longy in the comps. hardly missed a trick withthem, donlt like DG X100 at all, but i gotta say they do the trick. they are totally dull and lifeless shafts but even so they fit the yonex really well. in a perfect world id leave a set of these down under and id get another set and reshaft them with the NS proto ORA stiff for up here. love em, i saw these at the show last feb and immediatly said the next set of blades i get will be these. welli finally bought htese aftewr some long lenghty discussions with craig, carlo jason and tario the day i flew out literally 20 mins before idrove to the airport . and dogone im glad i did. one of my all time faves already wedges. nothing changed here the yamaha, the tourstages and the miura wmc03. thats me locked loaded for the fopreseeable future. got a few too many of these so watch the BST ill offer a cpl of them out. utes.. somethinge never change. i cant hit utes. given up back to the most reliable of them all the egg spoon 6i and 3 iron with stock NS 850 shafts OVER IT. fairway woods played the crazy f14 with crazy fw 80 8.2 a lot. this is easily the most solid thumping fairway wood ive hit. its low its piercing its head heavy, u know where the head is at all times, and it is absolutely NOT for jutsputting the ball out there somewhere nice.. nosirebob. its for lock load kapow! its useable off the deck if u like a gulp in yr throat a bit , but u gotta go really strong into it or its rigfht and scuttling, very pear shaped is long and it runs a mile. excellent fw esp off the tee. excellent the pr-gr egg spoon 15* diamana kaili 70s. like re-acquainting oneself with an old girlfreind u dumped in a fit of stupidity one day only to realise the new one u dumped her for has shorter legs............ and her hair is dyed............ the wrong colour. absolutelky bloody marvellu,s needless to say its back up here with me as it. perfection. just dont use a tee. putters the axis eagle got he nod along side the razor , and the matusmoto mz-07 the rest are merely filling up bag space. i hit these better than everything else, the new yrs resolution is to rid my slef of everything else i have everything. the putting gigs up. balls hard to top the tourstage x-01 mild and dj line. the srixons z star gota few rounds but i was always reacjing back in for a tourstage. doubt that will change these will be the openers foth new yr in march and ill be shocked if i knock anything out of the bag. illkeep my epon 101--crazy boron..yamaah tour crayz 50---p tune stinger----and yamaha tour stinger --and maruman condutor stinger drivers around the fairways will rotate between the egg spoon(old) the yamaha v-17 stinger and the crazy f14-f16 irons illkeep hold of a set of yamaha tour irons, the yonex , the aftours and the srixons. lets see how long the little club ho keeps his word this yr!
  23. took these to oz 3 sets. ns wv 120------shimada wedge------ns 1150 x shafted played most games on kaikuya grass, and a few on cooche the kaik is VERY tough grass. hitting down hard on this results in sore elbows. the tiny soles on the yammys was a perfect tonic. these really do spin well and the pop off the face is very noticeable. left a set down there time e memorium , the vw shafted ones. i liked the way they popped ,esp when it got windy. i though these were best sutied to oz of them all. the shimadas i like ot keep in JP and the 1150 get the ball much higher when its not blowing which i japan most of the time. really cant see any fault withte VWshafts i know a few guys ddint like them, but they were clearly my favs donw there. i bent one to 49* aswell to sue with the yammy tour irons, oh THAT was a great thing to do. thats my fave wedge love this if anyones thinking of gettign another pw and bending it DONT instead, get a 52* wedge and make it strongner , its a fabulous idea. thye play so much better than PW. to be honest. id prefer to get rid of the PW in most sets and strong another wedge, they arre totally different. the yammies reaffirmed thier spot in my bag alongside the tourstages
