What are JDM / USDM Clubs? Really?
This is a tough one for me . I tend to get quite vociferous on claims by a lot of pretenders............................... ithink its down to the individual PIECE it self, not the co that makes it these days EG: If its made here by say, kyoei and sold to the US/Australia only does that count ? to me.... nope! but if say, its made in china etc ,and DESIGNED, MARKETED AND sold for JAPAN predominantly and the world , then definitely , yes. (prgr egg) for eg. if its made anywhere else and not sold designed for here, and say with a Japanese NAME ? ha, then absolutely NO!! ! Heres my classic conundrum : MIURA. THIS is a tough one for me bec, I (loved) miura, had sooooooooooo many of their clubs ( still do!) but 90% of their stuff now doesn't exist here nor was it made for JP ( id never look at miura again bec of this) BUT its made here so im kinda emotionally caught on this, the baby blades are NOT imo and never will be JDM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes I know they are made in JP but not 1 piece of them are for local consumption, so............ NO! GIKEN range , isms then 100% yes! HONMA as well .. seriously , what to make of them.... their biggest mkt is still prob. here but its obviously they are looking to the globe more so than here BUT they are still HONMA and most of if not all gets sent out locally, so yea I consider most of it JDM. TM,callaway, titlesit, KZG etc , NO FKKN WAY , they are as JDM as a hamburger, I dont care if they make for the bashfull prince or not , most of their foray into JP is a rounding error and a pure marketing ploy , so no way hose!

Why do I do this? .... :) Some PRGR RS & RS-F driver heads arriving soon.
Great feedback here Nobs, yea I stand by the fact that it was bit low. I liked its distance , that wasnt in question and I thought it was LONG but I just cudnt get it go draw with any soaring flight . no matter how high I had the tee so I let it pass. I liked the huge face on it and small overall look as well. Ive got and game... a lot of PRGR drivers and am a big fan of their very non typical design , espcially the egg range, which wasn't aimed at low cappers but I seriously disagree! the egg7 ((9*) is prob my favourite of them all, I game that in comps back home on links almost exclusively nowadays (diamana ali islei 80s) ,prgr seem to make their woods so neutral its hard not to have one ........(or4 or 5 ). in your quiver. based on your findings, I might just try and pick a proto up this season and see if I cant make it sing!

Shimada Tour vs Modus 125
spot on with that. the 125x are a much smoother feeling shaft, pretty much the same weight if I remember correctly. I had the shimadas in a set of miuraisms for a long time until I started playing them here and I wasn't getting the launch I needed in JP to land on the planet sized greens we have, so I swpaeed them out for the 125s... was a good move. on links tor in wind the shimadas are a tough nut to compete with let alone beat, u wont move them about laterally. only ones I think hold candle to them are the NS super peening blues. shimadas much more stout feeling and lower launching than the 125s and similar to the super peeening blue. iwud toss a caoin over the shims and SP range as to which are better, in fact that's impossible they are very similar

haha.. u looked at the pt shaft from GD ? that is such a medium shaft. absolutely nothing i can find about it that i dont enjoy. its a little bit older now, as well, shingo was using it for.a.while. and another one is then2016 quadra ptv-nx got that in my astro tour and I cant get it out of the bag~ ! .

nobs I found htose heads to be low, the stock diamana blue 60s in them didn't help get the ball airborn much at all. they were long al right. the pro black one was a beauty but it wasn't that easy to hit, not overly forgiving. cant wait to hear ur thoughts on them, I passed THEM OVER IN FAVOUR OF THE older egg models I already have.
