birth black bullett 3 wood
put this little beauty in the bag yesterday for a hit out. was given to to me by my guy for a test. its DEF in the rotation now. very sleek, very stylish. very very very nice to hit . looks slightly raised at address kind of like u want to draw it, but can move both ways with ease . beautiful feel. no clue yet as to what this actually is ,or who makes it , but the maker has a tour van as i have one of his grips on my miura putter he put on for me at a demo day at ishioka a while ago. during the round it was easy to get the ball in the air, but didnt baloon, i didnt scuff one and middled all shots i hit with it . the kaili kept it very true in the air i liekd the trajectory a lot. mid ish. and distance was good. i hit 4 shots, 2 tees and 2 fairways , it was easily up with the other guys drives off the tee and perfect little draw to the green on 18 to safety where trechery abounds if u miss slightly..., it gets another round next weekend. looks easy to hit and is , with good distance. and flight. ( im gettign slightly long of 3 woods here.) ill ask about it tonight unless someone else knows about this?? but me likey !

epon 302/ af tour combo set .
gents, after testing a rogue af-tour 7-iron on a range yesterday before a match . i think, ( no thats incorrect ,) im DEFINATLY going to lift a set of epons. , i love the look of the 302, ive had my eye on these for a long time so i think its going to have to be a combo set. ..., like 4-5-6-7 in the 302, and 7-8-9-pw in the af-tour . ( rotate the 7 iron.) i was blown away by the quality of this club yesterday. i gamed the miura cb1006 and i love this set. but...., the differnce was extremely noticable, the miuras are a lot more solid at impact .(i guess this is a good description) than the epons, which are a much softer feeling iorn. and it would appear i love softer clubs. has anyone done this combo style ? also ive tried lots of shafts, kbs feel very stiff and heavy, the ns pro 1050 ive got in most of my clubs, with but the ones i used yesteday were dg s300 which.. seemed perfect any thoughts????????

ahhhh, yes indeed i took this out for practise round yesterday and loved it, (like u said apart from the sound which is awful. its a very dull ting.)its a tad disconcerting at first, BUT so effective. i putt very straight up and have very little arc, dead straight bac to forward in my stroke and this suited me perfectly i hit everything dead , this gets bagged form this weekeend.

Yururi Golf Tour Wedges Released!
the seida conforming are called rupas the tour conforming spin fine. its a matter of shape and looks , actually i think the tour spin a bit more. traditional shape rupas, or the flater longer shape tour. get both then u wont be dissapointed. i got the rupas shafted with ns pro 1050 x the tour with kbs tour black s the kbs is heavier and more "punchy" the ns pro gives u more feel both great dpeneds on what u favour.

Yururi Golf Tour Wedges Released!
i have quite a few of the yururi line, the 1.618 series, the seida, the tour and the rupas. the seida i think are the easiet and nicest to look at. they are great form bunker bec, of the width of the sole i think, , the 1.618 look like u can contort them to any angle and hit a good shot ,they just dont feel as good as the other lines. maybe bec they are cast(?) the rupas u can feel a differnce inside abut 50 yards , but outside of that i dont see a lot of difference. the tours spin the ball the most. they have a flat sole/edge and are sensational for point, shoot ,check up. , esp around the green. of all ofthem, they have the biggest tendency to dig if u get to steep ,( which i do a lot.) but when u catch them clean forgetaboutit......, the tour are the tops, cant go wrong i say.

yamaha driver
i bought a 2007 v 4.6 yestreday with the tour ad ev7s shaft and took it out htis morining, this club has a pear shape which i dont really like, i tend to snap hook this shape driver, but didnt seem to do that today. im not really a great fan of ev series shats as well they tend to push too far right on miss**ts for my liking. but i had a very good seshy with this. today its a fantastic feeling head ,just feels differnt. more solid, more thump. def going to reshaft it , and get the quadra in there ,see how it goes ,but first thoughts were i loved its feel , the most solid stable feeling head. and a great sound. just have toget use to the pear shape. picked up the 2010 drivers, but it didnt really suit me eye. theres 2 shapes, a more sleek model, and the updated v spec. but they aint cheap...., wanted to see what the old model did first. 2 more games this wekeend with it reshafted see hs that goes.

yamaha driver
ive never looked at yamaha and iwas just informed very relaibly by my club guy, thats this line of drivers is the very best japan has to offer, they were not mincing their words . try yamaha v spec and i asked about a lot of very good names , nope try yamaha was thie rrepsonse, these guys make thier own clubs, they have been putting mine together for3 years so i gotta listen. i know absolutley nothing about yamaha, so pls , if anyones got some info for me love to listen. i like a heavier club , mid ball flight with roll ,slightly open face and 440cc ish is prefeed.

Quadra/Crazy feedback.
my initial thoughts last night were to go for a yonex nextage 430cc 10* . but i dont think that will work now. . 46.5 is too long. that shaft will go to a buddy. 45' is my length. tks.

Building the ultimate JDM bag......
hmm, overall i cant beat my kyoei v muscle irons with ns pro 1050 x shafts. for a more forgiving shot then , the on off plus (for an easier feel. ) the fourteens tc 1000 s go well. rehit them on sun and loved them in between a blade anda cavity. very soft feel low flight as well. wedge wise yururi tour for moi. or the vega rafw08 , 3w seems to be the prgr egg has everyone in raptures. i cant beat the royal collection tho. driver.., where to start there. best of the j names i think ive hit this yr is the bridgestone 703. beautiful club. and the TM superfast with fubuki alpha is the best performer. totally differnt style. the prgr gn 502 is lovely but no where near long enough. hows that go...................,

Quadra/Crazy feedback.
quadra has a low launch to start then has an uplift in the mid ofthe flight to a medium heighted flight, then at the apex it tials over to get small/med roll. the majority of the distance like 80-90% is carry. but def not high. very very very straight trajectory . im talikng hitting into and accross wind, nothing better ive hit. long too can go as hard as u like without fear of ballooning. best feeling shaft by a mile (fire express 65sx) worth the cost.

Gonna Pull the Trigger Soon on New JDM Irons!
the on -off are very nice for a cavity MB not much better. around . a bit of offset in them but not too much to upset ur eye. had a hit on sat with those. eassssssssssssssy peassssssssssy. soft and high. i thnk they are a fantastic club , for a higher handicapper or someone wanting to use a 2ndary cavity MB style instead ofa blade. these are perfect. thats what my bud uses his for. 2ndary set. But as a primary set ,and if ur a good ironsman.. id say the epons are a more workable peformer. u wont notice any differnce in quality between. those tho. just the epons are a bit more tradesmanlike.. compared to the on offs which are so nice and easy. the xblade 901 are someting u might want to look at as well. they just rock. MUCH more workable sensational balde iron , very small very and an uber piercing flight.

epon af 202 3w fubuki alpha FW ,
now heres something intersting that has taken me 3 days to ponder over.., i took the epon back to my clubmaker on fri, (he lent it to me to try )and i said i didnt like it, he nodded in agreement immediatly...., which struck me.. err why did u agree , its the shaft he reckons. ( i have a fubuki alpha in my superfast driver and i hit that very very well , so well thats its become my gammer over the last 2 weeks) ,but im not mad on the feel of the fubuki,i get good distance and good control (so i dont care what i think i think, if im hiiting anything that well then im going to be using it, reagrdless of where my supposed allegiances lie) its weirding me out. (compared to my other shafts the fubuki definatly is not the best feeling.) my guy said i like hitting the blue boards , roddios and the quadras so it wasnt a shock. so. i might add a caveat aboutht he epon in here , that maybe the shaft has a lot to do with the feel of this head. bec i was truly shocked by how far behind it was . but that fubuki shaft was designed entirely for the FWS so im baffled. all i def know was the blue board 4w RC and the tour edge performed out of their skin on sat. that tour edge is a beast! if anyone has played at old orchard,, the short par 4 16th.. 3 wood from back of the front tees. over the water onto the fairway just in front of the green 10yards off the dance floor ,mahoooooooooooosiive(!) i fell about laughing.. my partners werent so thrilled tho esp as one of them sold me that club...!

epon af 202 3w fubuki alpha FW ,
i had my own 3 wood battle royale yesterday epon af 202 , royal collection bbd type h.. tour edge exotics cb2., with a split decision ......., the epon had a fubuki alpha FW shaft , the royal collection 3w with the diamana blue 73x and and the tour edge exotics stock fujikura.. . i started with the epon, its the new offering and at 75000 yen i was gobsmacked. the balls had a dull thud coming off the face. slighty off centred hits were dreadfull and even the most beautifully struck shots lacked punch. bitterly dissapointing i hit them off tees and the ground and didnt like the epon one little bit. it sits much higher than the other two and the sole looks significantly higher and rounder than its counterparties which i thought would be a great advantage over the other two form the tees , but . bah booooow wrong.. it was the shortest and worst feeling by a long way. i hit the royal collectin next my every day bagger. its a smaller head ,slightly round base and a compact look. its really long ,really low, and really straight. love it , far and way a much better feeling club. next was the tour edge, which was my buddies. hes got 2 the other one was the XCG with the graphite design stock shaft. i found that one very hard to get off the ground (didnt like the GD shaft) , just a too low shot for my liking . the tour edge cb2 was last and joint winner (if not just ahead of the roy coll. ) the face is uber hot. the address is slightly up right leaning inwards looking (like the cobra lv4 look) the stock shft was beautiful the ball flight was mid high , good to land softly on greens and its long , i was really happy with it length and it had the least recoil ,( the face is hot!) the ball literally flies off this thing , i loved it. bagging it tomorrow for my first full round , prefect counterpunch to the roy coll low piercing shots ,the exotics was the easiest to hit off the fariway. and no less long than the roy coll. i rate both the roy coll and the tour edge as equals for differnt types of shots and i was shocked by how far the epon was behind the other 2 woods in both ditance and feel . for the price its an absolute joke.
