JDM balls vs US
ooooooh i love this question ive debated this with my mates time and time agn., imo. YES. my first foray into j balls, started with the mizzy cross8s . about 2 ys ago , close to that anyway. i liked them for a long time, took a heap back to oz with me played a lot with them they took over form tity pro v1s and i noticed a difference , they had a more stout feeling , but after a while i thought the blues were too soft and not very long and the reds too hard. with no feel, so went to the shop and bought a box of each of these. titlesit granZ., srixon z star......,tourstage v10....., xxio premium brill..., super newing brill....., titleist vg....., nike black something. after trying each i was convinced mr nicholas is correct and they DO make a big diference. i hated the nikes they felt like hitting rocks. ran along the ground and made the club head feel like chunk of railway sleeper. NEVER again. the titleist granz were fine ,pretty non descript. perfectly good didnt notice anything good or bad felt fine , didnt see a lack of distance and around the greens they felt very good. they were the balls we ended up buying when we were at a course and needed some setai gifts the nice cross arrow allignmnet tool sold us on them to be honest. the titleist vg balls my buddy plays now and likes lot. he gets good distance they feel good off the driver face. i think they re prefly good but thats it . the tour stage v- 10 are now what i thought the titleist pro v1s used to be , good to hit, great feel and good spin on the greens, but longer distance , that why i changed in the first palce the titys wre soft but i was giving up yards i felt. the tour stages i probably shud be gaming a lot more. then i tried the srixons z star they became my fav very quickly, they have a more robust feel and more spin, i can feel the ball off the face of the iron quite distinctly , and on the green they back up nicely but dont feel like a wet sponge i love the hardness of the coat and the softness of the core. i played 6 rounds solid with these and and shot some great scores, i really liked them they are my back up selection if i cant get my all time favoutites. agn i probably shud play these or the TSage in matches BUT then i found the xxio and super newing premium brill balls.. when i subconsciously change all the other ball brands in my bag to these , i realise im onto something special thast exactly what ive found here. and they last a lot longer than anything esle noticeably longer. the reports tell me i shud probably be playing a more robust ball like the srixon or tour stage but i just dont and cant take these out of my bag. they just suit me to the point that i no longer notice what im hitting i just hit them every match. oh......, one other fact u wont find on any promo with these. these balls actually make u hit straighter, wait for it, YES ,YES it true. i know i use them and the reason is......., the cost of them makes u concentrate on NOT LOSING the bloody things!

agreed., its the head thats high launching and super tight. balls just kinda sail off into the sunset. the thing i notice is when i try and sting the ball , if i dont middle it prefectly the downward swing pressure can force balloons much worse than other clubs ive had. , the fix is simple.........., DONT try it. unless ur prepared for the consequences ! the club ive been trying this with is the 18* old model with the diamana stinger x. i ve been working on this shot for a cpl of weeks and its gettign better and more conssitant but when i miss it kabbbbbbom gone o/b.., the stinger in the 18* actaully brings the flight down and its crazy long!! i mean crazy. no way this is a normal 5 wood length. thast why im working on using this club more to do this shot but if i miss it "the stig " falls about laughing bec the ball pops up 3 kilometers up and goes 10 yrads forward. but when u get it just right well......, he who laughs last...... laughs longest!

i dont have a club that i can "go to" for this super tight longish shot that needs to go about 215+ with a fullish swing, and not go high. ive been trying the new egg for this but its either too long or it snaps as i have to choke down to the base of the grip. and sting it , its just not happeneing . esp shots on windy days or when i want to lay up to wedge distance. the courses im playing have gotten longer and tighter , and theres a specific hole i play i have in mind this shot is coming up more and more often as blader x says if i used a 4 iron this would nt be an issue but i dont so im scratching around for another answer, these other clubs are either too long or pop up. 3 stinger shots o/b with the 5 wood on sat did my head in ! it totally ruined an otherwise awsome front nine ,5 pars, 2 birds, 1 bogie and a 9...., i just cant have that on a score card, ( YES of course im blaming the tools here not my loss of head , hahahah, ) .., anyway i was so jacked i got str8 on here after the game and wailed for some direction. im think im going to have a go at one of the UTES mentioned above , either the RC or the adams...., AND im getting the 901 , which ive hit so well on limited occasions from the the tee box . the only thing is the shaft issue. the one my bud has i dont like at all . no idea what it is, its a single piece of super/ super light steel maybe even titanium (?) doenst suit me at all . its far to soft what ever it is none of us has clue, maybe even some kind of composite ,but we're not sure. ive seen this club with a diamana thump in them if anyone got any experience with that shaft? or i was thinking of going the Ns pron 1050 x FW wood steel shaft route. which i have and love. it not the longest but its pretty darn straight im kinda partial to steel in my utes .

crazy 80 fw shafts
Quadra. Every time for links! Ive actually got a links specific driver the yonex nextage 10' quadra fire 65xsthat gets played at nsw long reef and when i finly get to go to barnbugle dunes In dec when i go home for chrissy for a cpl of weeks. im itching to get down there my bud say its superb.one of the best there is . I find the yonex very easy to punch low its not the longest driver which shows how strong ishikawa must be bec he murders his. I finD i get ton of run and a super low launch ,the 9'. Was silly it almost ran along the ground the 10' tho is excellent. Jst not o erly long. But u cant change a quadra into big wind theres nothing in same ball park

Fellas the only remaining club that hasnt been changed is going to be. The tm burner has come to its use by date ,basicaly bec i hit my buds epon 901 and i smoked it,my question is what is there to consider? 22 degrees for use to long par 3s, 200 225 ish this is for and i want to be able to draw fade it obv the epon is no 1 in my thought now but?

NEW egg 17* spoon.,
Yea some guy dropped me on Wrx. No contact with him since he accepted pay pal. Very upsetting been waiting for this for 2 weeks. Hoping hes just on hols or something. Oh well gives me a chance to try the quadra which im ver y excited about. I def need something a little lower launching than the old one from a tee、i found this to. Be too high yesterday. Its great from the ground but not piercing enough off the tee box. Cost me too much in direction to b what im after as my driver replacement, the new one is earmarked for that with the quadra now, the fubuki is very good but just not good enough . Im too picky!

you wont go wrong with either of them with yr swing speed. i know bec i have several of both in varying lofts , and models , i am liking the shape of the epon so much right now. ive played both together recently on super difficult courses . super difficult! and i found i differed to the epon nearly every time i absolutley had to hit a fairway (never did tho! ). its 460 but doenst look like it at all. such a beautiful design. its probably slighty harder to middle than the yamaha consistantly , but when u get it , you get that "X " factor that most drivers dont have , length wise. can split em nothing discernable ,PROB the yamaha consistantly, bec i got a ton of roll with the lower launching quadra on hard pan . but it doesnt matter the feel of both will bring that smile to ur face every shot. ahhhh heres the thing ......., a big thing my misss hits.. the epon is better , my miss hits anrt as bad with the epon , thast why i differd to it i just remebed mid sentence.

epon 101- 9.5 * or epon 102 8.5* with a quadra fire express 75x yamaha v 201 9* crazy black 80 xx the crazy take the snap hook outta paly and has the best feel the quadra is just a cannon straight down the middle. we all know about epon heads for feel and the yamaha isnt a lick behind or infront of it. they both go a mile when u connect with em. and the fele second to none., imo

NEW egg 17* spoon.,
just had the thought of putting the quadra 75 xs in the new 15* instead of the f7m2. it might be a tad on the short side tho., maybe .25 of an inch short but the control and length im thinking ill get get shud be fantastic. thats all i want form this club, the best placement club i can make. and i know how the cut down 65 s goes in the old spoon, just no feel. i m thinking this is a winner . ull know by tues anyway after i do it today.

p-tune drivers
ok, im at my club builders a cpl of weeks ago, gettign club no 1,234,5454,789 rejigged for no aparent reason........, . and he s say stewart-san ive been keeping one of these for u . pls try it . i go, ok, what is it? its a p-tune made by japans no2 culb designer. . Matsuo -san (no2 ?, yes im assured its true.) hes has been working for Dunlop as the lead developer for eoans, and recenty he branched out to go it alone and desigend his own range with a co. called pigeon golf. they gave him scope to do whatever he wanted. and hes come up with a new weight distribution system thast the first of its kind in the world................, interchangeable dispersion on the sole of the club and channels leading to each weight. the face is rounded with a yamaha V series look to it. and the body is a compact 440 cc head that reminds me of the new onoff 2010 or a smaller srixon ztx, thats a kinda rounded shape. At address it sets up square and just seems to suit the eye nicely. impact. heres the very interesting thing. i ve been secretley using this a for a few weeks to guage what it is i cant put my finger on. now i think i know. its definalty a combo of the shaft and the chanel design that give it its unique feel. it doent feel hollow, it sounds hollow but the impact is like that tour edge exotocs cb range. nothing but solid non compression impact, the ball flies off this face. there was a test in one of the mags earlier this yr puting this up agst all the JDM competitors and it came in 2nd over all or distance for guys who drive under 270- ,, under 290 - over 300.., the winner was the srixon (but not the ztx ) an older model. maybe chris or tario cud track this down bec we werre quite surprised. this has attraacted a cult following in japan with the older guys esp, they Love it. NEVER seen one in any bin, or store, the only one ive ever seen one on auction site a sold after 2 days at the buy now price which was really toppy. mines shafted with a diamana stinger 60s (of course!) palys 318 x 45 x d2 and dispersion is seriously tight the length is long! and i can change the weight distribution to draw neutral or fade bias in heatbeat with the screwdriver accompanied. right now ive got it to slight draw bias and loving it. gamed ift for a few of 9 holes in conjunction with the epon and it looses nothing! i can smash this with confidence and the results have been very very good. not sure why i havnt palyed a full game with it, porb bec the epon is sitting rigght next to it and i juts cant keep my mitts of tis puppy. it s really exxy sits aside the epon 102 at the same price i hanvt got the language skills to work out the materails and really techy things (pssssssssss st T and C thast where YOU can come in on this....!) no photos of my beauty now i l do that tonight but heres a snipet of what im t alking about

NEW egg 17* spoon.,
ahhhhhhhhhhh, yes ,cum hoc ergo propter hoc the fubuki is very pleasant. lovely feeling and a joy to hit , a fantastic upgrade shaft for a minmal extra fee.cant go wrong here at all, unless......................................, you take a walk on the wild side, feeling fruity????? ALL the matrix range ive hit in fairways ........., are sensational.brillaint length, flight feel . top package the 60s..., xcon 6.., f6m2. hd-6 all brilliant. but then again................, if ur looking for a quantam leap. the QUADRA drivers shafts cut down open up an entire new world,NOT the easiest to hit , in fact quite difficult to hit well, not the greatest comfort feeling either, but hang on to your hats when u see where the ball ends up, loooooong ball lama ! when my f7m2 gets here tomorrow and gets whacked i n the new 15* then i think i might have close the ultimate feel/performance club , BUT until i game it, the above stands!

NEW egg 17* spoon.,
in my eyes they are worth the wait, fy info theres none out there in used land either, i manged to get cpl bec some looooooooonatic bought both and didnt like them and sold them back after one range ssession swapped them for the new royal collections, the stig just happeend to be in the store when he walked in and said oooooh hang on a tic ill take those straight of the guy. there were a bunch of other japanese guys ooooogling them when he pounced. not sure if prgr made enugh of these! theres a few of the older modles popping up now which was expected but theres no discounts! prgr made a beaut here.

oooh yea. ooooooooooooooooooooooh yea, they sound like a normal wood now . the only thing that MIGHT be a detriment to the new one that was mentioned ut was. that the face is VERY straight, balde like. , not rounded and typical. persoanlly i love this shape but he wasnt overly mad on it.
