Does miura still get respect?
in the US he s a god. you go onto wrx and every mofo knows someothing about something blahblahbalh....., ithink he gets more attnetion that unwarranted and unconnected to his actual product. than every other maker combined. ive tried his JDM irons, oh plus the 1957s and ive thoroughly enjoyed every one of them. some feel better than other s , some are better suited to the eye. the blade style he does is about the best style in balde ive ever hit. the pw i n the miuraism is THE best pw shape u can ever want its a scoring machine. so much so that i was going to get a sinlge sb-01 made and play that in every set ive got . here in Japan bec theres so many variables he doesnt stand out so much. his clubs still sell well but no more than any other. his ism range tho is still pretty revered. u see a set of those in a bag and people go hmmmmmmmmmmm, " geeeeeeeeeeeewhiz" tell you what theres a bloke on here that just got his hands on a 3 iron , and hes never played miura before, hes been an epon af tour guy. by all accounts he goes ok in the iron dept. well get opinion on miuras weaponry skipper-san??? Miuras been making clubs for a long time i don think he gotten any worse, the miuraisms sb-01 i hit of his that wre made 6 weeks ago testify to that. in fact id say i havnt hit anything thats better. yea my vote is he goes plenty ok

crazy black f 16 3 wood
I finally got my hands on a f16 crazy yesterday, my mate bought it coudnt hit it, i tried it with my quadra FEX driver cut shaft to 42.75 inch D2.5 its 15.5 * SUPER compact, really really pear shaped and really heavy the head is 215 grams. i had a blast last night with it. hit the first 6 balls catapulting out onto the back net at about the 240 flight was mid launch to high but piercing. wasnt a roll out club its all carry .can move this around anywhich way u like and the harder u go at it the better the resuts seemed to be. the shape is the best to my eye of all my fairways . didnt even try and hit one for from tee, just hit off the mats. this ii call a soaring bomber. i cetianly dont think this will suit a lot of guys its not the easiset club but when u get it pure its fantastic, the choice of shaft was fabulous as well. made for each other it would seem. miss hits off centre were ok, def not catastrophic but def not as good, its not a game improvement tool. i can see this going in the bag when i need to hit some higher fairway woods to elevated greens . it seemed to be a fair bit higher than the yamaha v 14 and the RC 304p right near the top id rate this after just one session. will play it this wekeend.

gawwwwwwwwwwd! the bloody shafts arnt here! im gonna struggle to get these done by tom or sunday. gonna have to take my quadra FEX shaft out of the kasco nad put that in the 11.5 * if i cant get it done by tonight. was checking the size differnce out compared to a cpl of othe 3 woods, a driver and my kasco. the kasco is much bigger and much more a driving fairway style. super sleek back like the TM burnr tp style. the yamaha v 14 isnt at first glance that much smaller. head size and shape arnt that dissimilar. until u put them on top of one another and see the increase in face volume. the yamaha v 14 is a pretty large 3 wood, packs a super punch. for a distance 3 wood this thing is right up there. the RC D/S has more over all depth and a fuller face. for hitting off the deck, ithink this might be a big ask to hit well consistantly.its not thtat heavy either the 11.5* is 203. gram and the 13.5 is 206 ( ithink its that way around) i just built a crazy f16 (15.5*) 3 wood last night as well and the head on that is 215 gram god that thing is a cannon. il only be able to get one of these donr by the wekeend. ill go the 11.5. bec i need to hit somelonger lower shots. thing is. if i put the FEX in it, theres NO way that will come out. the fex i think is the best 3 wood shaft ive hit. i keep going back to it. dog 2 bones syndrome.................,

Supo67 Review's the Fourteen DT111 & Hi610h
its not bad weapon. the more im hitting it , the more im liking what it can do.. it really has good distance , which for a driving hyrid, i guess thast what u want. its not super low, nor balloony either.id say its a solid club.and it gets easier to hit the more i hit it. it takes a wee while to get used to the look. but now , no dramas. even tho the srixon looks better and feels better i think the 14 is the easier to hit consistantly, and u might only need this type of club 1 or 2 times a round, ithink u want the most relaiable u can get. after a few more sessions im changing my mind and id prefer to hit the 14. as i said the shaftaint spectacular. but it still gets it out there. if u get this club, i dont think ud be dissapointed. juts hit it at the range a lot and ull get accustomed to its diffferent design. its DEF got a spot in my links bag. DEFINATLY.

Yamaha Inpres 4.6V +++++++ Quadra Proto SR Flex
i reckon the quadra proto to being little tighter. and not as damaging to slices as the FEX. if u slice it it will stil go far right ,but, not as bad as the FEX. i had a good range session alst night and used my epon102 with the proto for the first time in 3 months. i remember now why i loved this so much. i think of all the myriad of shafts i own if i was to only have this one i wouldnt miss any others. well . sort of ...........................,

Royal collection D/S 11.5* + 13* arrived...........,
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh utes. the bain of my golfing power game. just cant get one to perform for what i want. everything is too long. i dont got a 200 yard club , just dooooooooooooooont got it. i cant go to the rc ute bec. its too long. i have 8 differnt utes at home in all varying styles ,and none do what i want.(read, i cant hit them to what i want) the best ive made is the prgr egg 22* 5 iron, but even thats too long, i think i need a 6! got a 3-4-5 i n these, nothing feels ANYYTHING like the eggs. nothing close.distance is rediculously long, seiusoly stupid long. i hit the egg 5 iron easily 15 + yards further than my other utes. and its an iron! i absolutley love the egg irons. they are the simplest club to hit by a buzzilion miles. perfect shape for ute bec its an iron with a huge sole so out of the rough is simplicity. and its light. can draw it , cut it, goes high lands soft, of ir u smoke it turn it over it rolls as well. this is my pet project. got the 3 with a NS 950 gh s that i use back in oz afair bit. 4 with the modus 3 s again in oz mostly and the 5s with an ns 950 s and the roddio w8wa. that roddio is superb in this club, i love it. prob. a bit longer than the ns950 bit more piercing. if i can find a 6 iron then i think im set.

the quadra is a 3 wood shaft and the SW on it was too light the head must be heavy. came in under c8 (no fears i got antoher beauty for that puppy!) the f7 will be the same. its def a job for the p9003x

Royal collection D/S 11.5* + 13* arrived...........,
hmmmmm well. the 3wood shaft didnt go in it at all, came in at c9 SW with a counter weight. thats no damn good. had the driver stinger 70x aswell, but that came in at d6. he asked me what length i wanted these at. i said prob 3 wood lenth 43 inch would be ideal id think. butcouldnt get there with the shafts that id had back to the drawng board.

after getting my kasco Driving fairway up nad runningwith great results. the temptation to try the best fairway woods was just too much. read a bit about the RC d/S and bec ive got a heap of their 3,4,5 woods it really wasnt hard decision. got a cpl of heads so ive been considering shafting them up with ive got a heap of crazy 80fws already. and well its pretty hard not to put those in them i can assure you. the differnce in the heads form the kasco to the RC is huge, the RCS are like big 3 woods. nothing like a driver what so ever. they are a very big deep 3 wood. but much smaller than the kasco. and FYG, that kasco is playing really really well, i was out driving my mate with it on sunday just a bit tingy for my taste, but hte quadra fex in it is 100% prefect! with the RCS its just the shaft selection is making me ponder. my thoughts are put the kahoona quadra in the 13 and meld the high head with low launch nad in the 11* put a graphire drgign p9003x uber tight but a littel higher launching ,agn balance out the 2 sticks. the 11 is for australia in the wind in palce of a driver at longy bec i dont ned length there at all its only 6300 yards. i need to split the fairways every shot. the kasco i though had this possy , but its al ittle high for wht im thinking even with the quadra, this is going superbly here in japan. so its down to the quadra in the 1 and the p9003x in the 13 or somehting similar to those. matrix 8m2 is one im loking at, and naturally the crazy 80fws whay say u all??

EPON 302 lie angle..............,
Ive had my fair share of probs witth these beauties. kept heeling them all over the course ,was doing my head in had to sel lthem bec i just coulndt handle the pain emotionally. i absolutely love them, but coulnt play them. was heart wrenching so as an experiment ....................., i bought a 7rion last week and shafted it with a shimada tour 120 stiff. took it to clbubuilder to get it measured ,and its o.5* -1* upright. depending on what ur view on stock is aparently. i had it flatened to 61* and still was clumping the bejesus out of the heel. so i flattened it to 59.5*, to me thats ludicrusly flat. NOT with this puppy tho, no sireeeeeeeeeeeeeee bob. prefect, so i took it out yesterday to the game and hit about 20 bals with it before the match its perfect now .looks a bit flat to the eye , but i think i need it like this t o get that hell out of the way. i have a feeling i thinki know what the next of irons i buy..............(again ) will be.....................

Rain range balls &yonex 380bangvoo
mate WORST day out in my life the course was spectacular. they cut the rough form a foot to 6 + inchs on the firways around the greens tho it was just horrendous. the ball literally sank thank god i ahd the bunker meijin! saved me about 6 times. and the fairwasy were no more than 15 yrads wide in parts. we palyed stroke and nasau so everything in the cup. 3h15m for 9 holes. they put us behind a group of 16. 900yr old morons who thought it would be a good day out to play shishido hills the JPGA open course a week after the tourny. where every yr -6 wins the damn thing and no more than 8 guys go sub par! absolutley NO IDEA what so ever. every hole was 4 groups one on green one on fairway 2 on tee box. lost it at half time , then they said u have to wait 1.5 hours at lunch and start back nine at 3.40pm , and . oooooooh ooooooooh maybe u wont make full 18! i LOST it. we went star8 ot the tee box nad played the back nine in a brisk 2.45. talk about no flow, no concentration, just horribe day out. but i stripped my mate out, and took the day and the coin. gooooooooooood coin. 3 hole blow up throught out the day tripple ,tripple ,double, the rest was super solid. club choice super important, to kthe jbeam 425 tour crazy 80 7.7 as driver i gave this 10/10 for performacne. the yamaha tour 08s with the ORA prototype shaft agn 10/10 wedges i was better off throwing the bloody ball, hit them like a mong. the matsumoto putter. hit that so-so. balls ,i played the tourstage x-01 mild forn tn ine then switched to the bridgestone super newing premium brills back nine yup its official its the super newings for me. much nicer to hit spin NOT an issue what so ever. the stimp was running abt 10 ish plenty fast enough for us chopchops.....! stil lgonna do this every yr. the course is just sensational. if anyone wants a challenge pop over this time next yr and well organise a weeekend up there. its a top spot.! goes to hosw how good th pros are we played form th STONES. 7392 yards. yee gads some of the par 4s were just gulp. one is 508 yards. u juts have to laugh.

Rain range balls &yonex 380bangvoo
i swapped out the shaft and put a qudra fire express in it and had a good whack yesterday with it 10* its a LOT better with this shaft the bangvoo feels kinda mute ,the FEX most certainly does NOT. the FEX keeps the ball down a bit more aswell. and it gives ita kilelr kick, improves this club enormously. still got the anti left thing going on, but i was very very pleasantly surprised. made it to play d2 at 45 inch with a 75xs shaft, can easily come down a flex in this aswell. to get it turinig over a bit more. distance improvment was noticeable as well. was tempted to cut it to 44.5 but thought ican just choked own on it without a problem. would have played it ysterday, but the jbeam425 tour was just soaring. going to keep this for a raing day. the bangvoo in the yamaha tour is MUCH better than the fex and the fex is MUCH better in the yonex than the bangvoo differnt strokes for differnt folks.
