I hear ya.

some used sets on YJ Auctions and Rak . but if you are going to get a used set perhaps try a AF 302 or AF Tour CB not much price difference.

Welcome to the forum!

You're selling off your Stingers and Dia X's ? I hope you are replacement thiem with something really really good! ?

https://www.prgr-golf.com/product/wedge/18-rs-wedge.html It does say on this page the wedges are "Made in Japan" but who knows these days.... ?

Not flighted but trajectory optimized is how they call it.

Check the rules on the BST top page. - No listing of new unused products - this is for buy and sell of used products

Those are some awesome feeling irons! I've decided on irons that I am putting together with the Monacos. I shall reveal my new iron set once I actually have them! ? I will say that I chose some heads that "should" feel extremely soft at impact.

If you are talking about the Red Gold colored FEX 65 , aren’t they high launch? bx70 is low launch.

I don’t know... all the Crazy driver shafts that I’ve tried to like in the past didn’t like me back ... if you want a more controlled lower launch with your FW , Fire Express BX70 plays really nicely in an FW. I have an F3 flex in my Modart 3wood and an F2 flex in my 5 wood. Debating now if I should get another one for my driver...

Gotta be careful with the "forged" term for PRGR irons. They use this term loosely. RS forged is not one piece forged. It has a forged body but the face is Chromoly. Similar construction to the previous gen RS forged irons. The wedges on the other hand are full forged.

Maruman Shuttle heads are high launch to start with. Perhaps 6.4 is too flexy for you? Hard to say without knowing your swing style. FW80 is a very good FW shaft. With the right specs, I have had very good experience with it. I have used FW80s with 7.4 to 8.2 flex and all worked pretty well. ( 8.2 was probably a bit much shaft for me. ) Only issue for me is that it is a bit on the light side for an FW shaft. I have a moderate tempo with smooth transition. Driver SS is probably right around 100 mph these days.

I use FEX BX70 in my Modart 3 &5 Woods just under 70g but pretty stout. I get good distance with good stability. Also have Diamana W 80 S , Graphite Design TP8 S in my other 3Ws. A bit heavy than what I should be using but the added weight provide and stability.

What aspect of the FEX UT 100 are you referring to as a “monster shaft?” Is it the weight? Flight? Feel?

You previously had the TR500 /Monaco combo that you had sold to Cuistot. He let me test it a while back and that’s where I got the idea!! :). That TR500 combo felt special.

Was thinking of forgiving cavities like Epon AF 505 or Seven MCBs I have Modus 120 S in my Seven x Shinagawa MBs and I think they are a good match. Monaco’s in the Shinagawas I tried before but did not work out too well.

Monacos are coming my way. I get a Toblerone too? :) For the last 2 years I have been mainly using 100g to 105g shafts due to a left hand injury that I inflicted upon myself from too much practice!! Earlier this year, I realized how bad my iron game was and went back to heavier steel and PRESTO! the inconsistency in my iron shots magically disappeared. ( well... mostly ) I think I am almost 100% recovered from with my hand issue and thus it made sense to go back to heavier steel shafts. I have now switched back to Modart 120 S , 120 X and 125 S in my iron sets and I just needed to give the Monaco S another shot. I am so happy that I did because with the lighter shafts, I was doing all sorts of unnatural things like flipping and scooping .. you name it. I'm in the process of deciding what heads to use with these Monacos.

Pm sent on the Monacos. Would like to see pics.

I have one Gold’s and one Benock both made of JIS303. Gold’s has added Tungsten weights and shafted with a Dogatti (I.e. modified ). And my Benock is custom milled to my specs and being used as is, straight out of the factory. Both are awesome feeling putters but ironically, neither get gamed on my Saturday Men’s club events... I have an Odyssey O-Works 7S for that. It’s just an easier putter for me when the pressure is on.

Love all the wild caught Salmon from the region. Very very delicious indeed.

Found this shaft used on a Jean Baptiste driver I found on a Japanese auction site. Described as a Korean made shaft called "Prism" not yet officially released in Japan. It looks like it has sections of the shaft that are asymmetrical shaped and tapered for added rigidity? I think.... It's interesting!. Anyone have more info?

I looked some of them up.... :) What I was shocked to learn was that Cally already used SP700 back in 2009. and you still have one in your collection which means it survived the test of time while many other materials appeared and disappeared. Along with DAT55G, it shows the superiority of SP700 as face material.

ERC is SP700. Kamui is DAT55G , Egg are mostly 6-4 Ti , Epon used KS 100 back then, I think... Ryoma uses some oddball Ti. Not really sure about the others.

These are Ti heads. Not just face but whole thing is Ti

Yoro has raw options. I used to have a set of MP-64s that I bought from a member that was raw. very cool looking .... for us in the Pacific Northwest, getting them to rust uniformly should be a cinch!!
