  1. Chaps.. the best looking iron set i own the epon 302s the shape the size the feel is juts out of this world. i cant hit them........., ive tried so much i hit em in oz whene ever i could in all types of conditions ive swapped the shafts out ., changed the grips over 3 times ive played 1 really good ball striking round with them. the rest ive just got thru i cant sell em bec i love them there\must be something im missing here bec all my other iron setsi hit well esp if u use them twice in a row and a cpl of ranges sessions but hte 302 i just cant get wired. the sole is the broadset of all my clubs and im thnking this is the reason i have a very steep angle into the ball bec i do this really bad shiiiiiiiity cast movement that i jsut cant fix.! but on small soled clubs that doesnt really come in to it on these tho its just too much i feel is there any other reasons anyone can think of bec im into the death knell of perhaps the best clubs ever designed. i will give these every possible cahnce to stay but i cant keep playing them when i hit the smaller clubs so much better gents pls any ideas ??????

  8. Hey not a bad shaft huh? Fyg i bought a 10' witha roddio s7x havnt gamed it but kill it a t the range they suit nicely as well roddio suits this head!
  9. revised numbers today 11 meters plus waves and 9.0 magnitude. the new footage released today is jawdroping. thers nothing u can say its like a movie.the earth was still ish today notthing since early morning cpl of shudders but were so used to them now .the only concern weve got is the reactor, beenon the phone to qantas all morning trying to get a flight if were going itll be tom as its dues to rain on tues nad the wind is heading sth east right over tokyo not sure if i fancï½™ glowing yellow for the next thousand yrs reallly. so it might be sayonara..........................,
  10. brilliant head., got aout 6 yamahas of all differnt size shapes. the v 201 in 9 is low the 10 is absolutley marvellous for a bit more carry and workability very forgiving and super easy to hit. length tho doesnt get sacrificed really just not that much run. the 9 will go further with a lowspin shaft like the quadra FE the 9 is a lot better for running the ball and hittin into wind the 10 is better for load shoot and carry. if u want more roll and shoot 280 id go the 9. if ur SS is avbove 105 then th 9 will suit well. i have a 10 in the tour 425 cc and 9 in the v201 model the v201 has a stinger in it and that is a cannon ball express.
  11. oh boy..., they are the best looking finished clubs ever.
  12. hey chaps..., is there any playability differnce between the differnt heads? ive hit the coper wedges and they def felt more solid , no where near as soft same in putters the metal felt like a much harder constitution. jeff those ones on your avatar i presume are the 302s? i was thinknig of getting a set of kyoei muscles in copper a while ago but i balked bec my ex.perience wasnt great with what i hit . the rawheads i know very well having the yururi flatbacks and dozens of kyoei wedges but still curious about the copper heads.
  13. jim im lost for words...., we were awoken by another 2 quakes.., but they all pail into insignificance now after fridays thing. the news on the reactor isnt great. juts getting details on it now but my wifes friend called a second ago abd told ut to get the fk out. they have evaced 200 000 epople fporm around that area so in guesssing that aint great!!! fk its so ahrd to know what to do,,, other countries are sendiong droves of people in to help and im thinkng of splitting. ithought id take off from work and go and help out however possible then my wife reminded me im responsible for a family. i LOVE japan and its people, the country is incredible the diversity of temperature, topography , and people in differnt regions is stunning i feel like i owe this place something ive been here 10 yrs and i came for 1 and there wasnt an end in sight before this happend.] my allegiances must lie with the fam tho and ill do what ever is safest for them. the devestation up north cant be expressed in words. sendai was one of my favourite palces to visiti,, the skiing and golf up there was beautiful just watching videos of the plant blowing up now. gawwwwwwwwd. gonna be difficult times ahead oh jim btw...... hit em staright , gaw damn it.....!
  14. yea there were 2 fukushima wheer the other one was and miyagi way north we got a small shake. but after yesterdays thing everything feels small now oh god imagine what war must be like if this is just what the earth does. aparently theres an entire village of ............................10,000 people that are msising in miyagi im lost for words..........................,
  15. ijust got off the phone with my boss here and said have u heard about the reactor facrtor which he had i work i n very very tight nit group of about 30 foreigners in tokyo varied ages and countries. i isaid to my boss unequivicobally if theres any kind of fallout what so ever . then im outa here. immediatly. anywhere dont care.., i asked is there,or has there been any dialogue aboout evac? all the guys have fams as well and at no stage was there ever a thought of lets see how it goes... we need to think about the future yadda yadda yadda. def not he said they will rent a plane and fly us out of japan to anywhere prob hong kong as its the closes major hub. as i wrote this another one hits in the same area as yesterday. tsunami warning agn . god this is getting scary................,
  16. jim cheers the phones went back on this morn at some stage and ive been fielding calls from fam and chums so they know were still here. appreciate all the concern form everyone im still sitting here shaking just went and saw my clubbuilder who lives 500 yards away his shop was all over the palce shafts everywhere. clubs strewn assunder. but tokyo in general has held up very very well. there were 5 quakes in 5 differnt spots looks like mother earth has an upset tummy. hoping last night cleared it out and shes back to feeling well agn.
  17. YES MATE have only been able to make 1 call so far. this seems to be the only medium open regularly ive got a big bag packed at the door but as emi says where the hell we going to go? this seems to be the safest place. nothing new here since 8ish looks.l ike the fire at the refinery is out thankfully. that plant at fukushima tho....................... FiRST sign of real concern and trouble will see me on QF 21 end of chat! told the missus be ready im not joking oh here we go agn!!!!
  18. morning fellAS well another nteresting night.. non stop shocks and sways but mercifully nothing that made us get up was a night of intereupted sleep and concern over how fast we could get downstairs in need be. still w a huge waarning for tsunami over the whole counrty but after the big shock yesteday sways that wewere getting last night felt like going over a speeed bump in a 4wd. not sure what were going to do now. bec golf is off......! my house seeemd to handle the pressure cooker pretty well so well have a look around it make sure nothings broken poor sendai doesnt seem to exist anymore. they said it as a one in 1000 yrs shock. pls god let that be true!
  19. yes T, ur right., any houses for sale at kiminomori?
  20. ive been thinking where the hell i can go theres NO high ground in a basin like tokyo. my wifes friend just rolled in the door she was in shinagwa which might be below water level its that flat she lives in kamakura on the beach and that is one palce u dont wanna be right now. looks like shell be here for a few days. bloody golfs off tomorrow!!!!! i was all set to kick some butt! hope the courses are ok as well. japaanese people are so pragmatic. theres no panic just an alert sense of inevitability. everone just does what they are told and accepts thier fate u shud see it , my wife was under the table when i got home luckily i was on the scooter when the 2nd big one hit so i just felt small sway and was watching all the tellegraph lines shake, its still going on right now this is no .40 today i think right now another biggy. ah im over this! theres absolutley NOTHING at all u can do zilch there was no panic when it struck i was on 4th floor of 40 story bldg built reccently and its erathquake proofed nad it felt like bambi on ice. everyone was just pouring outt he bldg. there was nothing like it nothing i can put a piccy in yr mind. pls just let it stop soon but after this size pretty sure these will go on for a long time. might be a case of sayonara japan im too old to cope withth e stress of this. my wife and her friend are hoing into cheeese and red wine and im sitting here hoping the ground stops moving! anyone wanna swap places pls ?????
