recycling old models as a test..
i decided to recycle an older fav iron set of mine , tried selling them a while back but they didnt take , so after a super intense session at the range last week in which i striped the balzes out of them, ive decided to reinstate the FOURTEEN tc-1000 back to thier former glory. last week i took every 7 iron i have for a hit off and discovered with some amazement that these tc-1000s were infact as soft and delcious to hit as anything i have. they were shafted with ns 950s so that kinda makes sense but..., the soles on these are really quite thin, not too dissimilar to the yururi and miuraism, touch larger but not much they have a thicker top line tho which erked me a bit , but the size of the blade over all is quite small and compact. very rounded i like a thinner sole and im not mad on chunky toplines which is why i stopped using these a while back , they look pretty full. but have since discovered that in fact.., they arnt that big when i compare them to my others. i was going these against the Tour stage 901s as my set ill reshaft with uber- shafts and play alot more. the TC-1000 won but it was super close ,the TS are a lot more knife like and very thin, a perfect iron for plotting ur way around a difficult track, or playing on tight lies . prob one of the best. the sole is preposterpously thin, they dont go very far , and i dont have to clobber them, to get results in accuracy. but i i fnd i try to get them to go the same distance as say my yammys which is just not gonna happen so i over swing with these far too much. the tc -1000 deliver a pretty low flight really , they are beautiful to hit as soft as anythng u can think of, truely. they are a blade wit hte back cut out of them whcih offer beautiful forgivness but with the playability of a true blade. they are a brilliant mix of both styles. bec they are so low , i i think they are gettting the ora x ill pull form my yammy tours. just bec a club is a cpl of yrs old, doesnt mean that it is has-been i firmly believe new is NOT alwatys better. ill post a few piccys when i get these up to scratch

jbeam 435 II---- crazy 80 ls noir
gamed this little black duck today bec the air was moving like a typhoon. the differnce between this shaft and the diamana illima is HUGE ive always like diamana , but really , isee where the extra money goes. the construction of the cray is just so much tighter. so much livlier and more controlled. the flight is still really low, lots of run not much carry i was using an 8.2 flex which cpms at 300 and weight at 331 gram d2.5 , which is just one flex too tight for me but it wasnt that noticeable, wasnt really an issue, ball wsnt moving anywhere just sliding a bit right which is just my swing . it looked superb at adress, very square, and u dont think for one second ur going to make this ball move what so ever. u look for a draw? ha good luck!!!!!!!! but in todays conditions, not a prob i wasnt looking to get the thing up there cazaly, i wanted tight, low control and thats what i got over all distance want terrific bec it low but it was prefered to my crazy 460 stinger 70s combo for today. bec it was so much more piercing the feel with this combo is great , i liked it a lot, its a very contrlled combo. for todays cons. it suited very nicely. id suggest the most lofted head available on this model to get it up in the air.

what a top post. great info i too have an adams , the idea pro a12 model with the altus hybrid shaft in 23* its good. results very very good, that tiny head shape suits my swing nicely. but the differnce in feel is so marked between this and the JDM clubs. i hit it ok so ill keep it in my bag for now. the other nice one i hit recently was an onoff fairway wings, very tasty! u think the epon will be a big hit?

yes indeed, thats a good thought crazy could indeed be our honma. the best bag i ever saw was at narita driving range "jonny shacho" we call this guy was a member there. every week he had his chaufeur, his golf coach, his mate ,and his "other" freind of the day with him on the range, the chaufeur would pull his bag out of his maybach and then stood on the range and would hand him his honmas from his loius vouiton square bag. we priced it up $9800..., we guessed he prob had10 of them . the guy was a ledgend

THE ultimate club ho round....
Last friday, i looked disconsolately at my stash and i decided that i have far far too many irons sets that i leave idle ,so i packed a bag and headed down the beach. couldnt choose which set to play so this got the nod... 2i---miura 5002 PX 6.0 3i---fourteen tc-1000--NS sp blue S 4i---zone sprout proto -ns1050x 5i----yamaha tour 2008- NS ora S 6i---yamaha tour 2011--NS ora x 7i---yamaha tour 2010-- Ns proto 2 f15x 8i---miuraism sb-01---ks tour 120 9i---kyoei v muscle- Ns proto DP pw--tourstage 901--dgs200 FINALLy i had the oportunity to see how each club felt in a match agaisnt each other, and the diffence is absolutely enormous. all these clubs ilove but i realised i like certain shafts better than others. ive spent ages trying to match the heads with the best shafts, and a far as ive found these are pretty much it, aprt form the tourstage 901 pw which i havnt got around to yet. and the 2f15 in the yamaha 2010 which i think is prob just a bit too strong for my liking, cant deny how good they are , but i like a softer feel and these are super tingy. played pretty well for the most and chopping and changing between differnt lofts lies and soles does get a bit "gulp". not sure if ill do this every weekend, but for a one off it was a great time. i do have some pretty good iron sets to play around with, theres one glaring omission that i might just have to reconsile soon , and it will take every ounce of self restraint , (a comoodity that i have in 0 supply) to stop myself. was a fun experiment. btw all these irons absolutely rock.
