..haven't received it yet...

i know this is a long shot but i am looking for the matching 7-wood for my giga xf-II 4-wood in R flex.. it has a mitsubishi rayon shockwave graphite shaft... if these are no longer available i will consider any other giga 7-wood with similar specs... thank you for reading this and for any replies.. PS..pls email me at [email protected] for any replies..

i just got a mint condition set of these irons 5-P with inpres mx-6061 graphite shafts and would like to know more about them.. ...when were they introduced?...are they endo forged?...are they still conforming?...plus any other relevant info... ...thank you for reading this and for any replies..

i have a set of all original graphite shafted tourstage V7000 irons(4-P,P/S) which i got from ebay in almost mint condition about 2 years ago for about $250 and it is one of the best feeling irons i have owned... i found another set available locally in poor condition and it was selling for more than $500...

soft feeling is soooooo... subjective.. even hard cast irons can feel soft with low compression balls.... i use the bridgestone B330RX ball exclusively and although i haven't tried the epons my old tourstageTZ101s and V7000s really felt soft when hit properly... i now use the adams V3 forged and they are also soft---but then they have all of those high tech vibration dampening stuff!!

...i just found out that giga is a korean company and not japanese....

i recently acquired a giga xf07 titanium driver in 10* loft with mamiya OP hex axle high modulus graphite S shafts in brand new condition in a close-out sale from a local distributor at a bargain price.. total mass weight is 286 grams.. i realize this is a 2007 model club but since i was looking for ultralite sub-300 gram drivers it fit the bill.. i have yet to take it to the course--will do that this sunday--but was hitting range balls pretty well.. i would appreciate any reviews from those who have tried it.. thank you for any replies..

is there any way i can re-groove these irons to make them conforming?

my tourstage V7000s also have a reverse offset which i found a bit disconcerting...in the beginning.. i hit them so well now that they are my main gamers....i guess i just get used to it after a while..

i am currently using the above forged irons for my social/casual rounds but am liking them so much i intend to use them for more serious amateur tournaments.. i plan to join more local and national senior amateur events(am 65) which are always run using USGA/R & A rules and are also used as the basis for selecting our senior teams representing our country in international events.. although they are close to 10-year old models i have not found any of the newer models which can out perform them--for me.. i got them in mint condition last year and the V7000s are 4-P,P/S with stock 64 gm graphite R shafts and the 53*/58* wedges have precision 5.5 steel shafts.. all the clubs have "bridgestone" identically stamped in the hosels and i presume they are manufactured and forged in japan.. will they be legal for the events i plan to join?.....thanks for any replies..

thanks for the reply but i don't really want to inconvenience the seller... i would consider the current pings and callaways mid-sized.....am looking for heads slightly longer than my previous bridgestone J36... i also have the older tourstage V7000s which i would consider mid-sized...

there is a set for sale here and am wondering if they are mid-sized or standard...for reference i would consider the bridgestone J36 as standard and the J38 as mid-sized.. am really looking for some mid-sized ones... thanks for any replies..

thanks guys...any one know the tip diameter shafts i should get?

i am awaiting my Z101 iron heads from #2 iron to PW and am planning to reshaft them with graphite.. what shafts should i order...parallel or taper tipped?? thanks for any replies...

found one na....this can be closed...

......my current gamers are a set of tourstage V7000 irons #4-P,P/S which i got in really mint condition earlier this year...they have graphite shafts with the following markings: ...TDI-60H...tour design...wt 64...tq 3.6..KpHK...flex R.... ......although i realize that this is about a 10-year old model,i am hitting these clubs better than any of the iron sets i have had in the past and am now looking at assembling a back-up or combo set with a set of tourstage Z101 heads which i recently procured using shafts with similar playing characteristics as on my V7000s...... ....i would appreciate any assistance/suggestions from those with experience on currently available shafts with similar playing characteristics as to what i have on the V7000s.... i guess i can always look for another set of tourstage irons with the same shafts and pull out the shafts but am not really inclined to go that route as i would prefer more modern shafts....... i also have a set of bridgestone J36 pocket cavities with nspro 850 R shafts which was my previous back-up set but now find this a bit heavy and am now convinced to go for graphite in my irons....as long as the specs are what's right-----for me.. many thanks for any replies....

hi!...am looking for a set of bridgestone/tourstage forged iron heads in 8 or better condition to assemble a graphite shafted forged iron set as a backup for my beloved tourstage v7000s.... ...prefer mid-sized models similar to the bridgestone J38s.. ....ideally 4-PW,GW,SW but 4-PW is ok too... the items only have to be shipped to a new york address and i can pay thru paypal, credit card, or western union money order... please PM or email me at [email protected] if you have what i'm looking for... thank you for reading this and for any replies....

oops!!...my bad---i inadvertently added 1 more zero.....he he he!! thanks for pointing it out....

the clubs were in mint almost brand new condition with original headcovers when i got them and the sticker indicated a price of 750000 yen for the driver and 350000 for the 4 wood.. ...did they really cost that much when they first came out?

i just got a tourstage viq mx 10.5* driver with a tv-50a 48 gm R shaft and a viq 17* 4 wood with a vd-50 SR shaft in a trade and would like to know what year model these are and where they were made... the driver weighs in at 290 gms and the 4 wood at 305 gms... i have used them for 2 rounds now and am hitting my drives at least 15 yds longer(about 240+ yd carry now) than my previous J33r 460 driver with vs proto 65 R shaft(325 gm mass weight) and the 4 wood is also longer than my FT 17* 4 wood with fuji e160 R shaft.. needless to say i am quite happy with my trade(i traded them with my mint--hit less than 10x--2010 callaway diablo edge tour driver) and am now convinced that the lighter shafts and over-all weight are the way to go...for me.. i am 65 years young and my ss is in the high 90's....i have been playing the game for 52 years now and got as low as a 3 but am now an 9 hdcp on my 6500 yd home course... i am now looking for a similar driver as a back-up as my other drivers are all in the 320-325 gm range.. thanks for any replies...

...many thanks for your reply gocchin!!

after having been a 100% callaway user for the past 20+ years i have recently converted to japanese brands--specifically bridgestone/tourstage--as i now feel they they are more suited to the asian market and also believe the japanese quality is second to none.. i currently have 2 sets of almost all bridgestone/tourstage clubs (see my signature) and was just wondering whether my current stuff was made in japan or china... i would appreciate any comments from those who may know....thank you for any replies..

i just played these on the course for the first time yesterday and am very happy with them...my best shot was a 6-iron 10 feet past the pin on a 175 yard par-3 with an island green... ....also hit a P/S( 51 degree gap wedge) from 115 yards with a slightly helping wind to an elevated green 8 ft from the hole----and missed the birdie putt!! if 10 year old tourstage irons are these good i can't imagine how much better the newer models are...

hi...am in the market for a new or even pre-owned in very good/excellent condition adidas golf bag... i am looking for a cart or tour model bag---not a stand bag.. i am located in the philippines and the item has to be sent to me here so i would appreciate estimated shipping costs if possible...thank you.

many thanks for the reply duff!...the reverse offset really does not bother me at all and i can see myself using this set for a loooong time!!!
