boy you guys are teasing us!!! ;)

we're less than a week away and nobody has leaked a picture of the new blades???

my favorite wedge, an old titleist elk, had little to do with the wedge itself and everything to do with it getting worn down by my swing. the sole, (broken in perfectly to my swing) was worn so severely that you could barely read the word "titleist"! i re-groved it twice but finally the face was so concave that i had to give it up. i could play any shot from any lie or hazard inside 70yds to within a few feet with that thing!!! not having that part of my game still costs me almost a stroke per round.

that's the only fault i can find with the original penta...i enjoy it's workability but if you're not careful you can put a little too much side spin on your shots, including drives. however, i don't mind giving up distance for control but if this ball lives up to your billing, i'll have it all.

this ball could be worth a try as your statement sums up my feelings about the original penta (which i game now). the penta is the only ball i've liked since the original gen 1 prov1x.

thanks duffer!!!

can anyone post side-by-side comparison pics of these and the personals?

titleist has done this and it's pretty good for the most part. unfortunately it only compares usdm's.

ok...these just moved to the top of my list!

been fighting the urge to get the pro forged blades for a while now and that picture doesn't help!!!

you may find that the proper shaft may be what you're looking for. in one driver i have a royal deco and you simply can't hit it left. in another i have an ly-02 and plays the perfect draw.

awesome find stew! my seiko black monster cost about the same and is one of my favs. to be honest, it gets just as many compliments (if not more) than anything else i own!

the aerotechs are mid trajectory and there's no reason you couldn't adjust the lofts on the 502's to bring the flight down if needed.

it won't have the best feel out of jdm drivers but it delivers the best performance and might have the profile you're looking for. the jbeam or crazy original 435!

best ball since the original pro v1x imho. i've got a tm connection so i still have access to these at $20/doz!!!

i don't have a list but i know kamui works, ryoma, and romaro have hi-cor drivers. i just listed a nearly new kamui works for sale recently...

this is a 7 year old thread...there are plenty of drivers now offered at .88cor!

if we can figure out who actually makes them for epon i think the rest will fall in place...

my cigar smoking has nothing to do with relaxing...i just think golf and cigars make a good combo. a round of siglo iii or siglo vi usually make their appearance when playing with good friends.

i have the aerotech i125's in my epon af-tours and they're a pretty good set. i actually didn't expect to like these shafts as much as i do and think they're as good as any steel shaft for most players. my swing speed and distances are almost spot on with yours so i wouldn't worry about the weight or flex but i would be concerned with the finished length those clubs are built to. the aerotechs seem to go harsh if played at the shorter japanese standard so i'd highly recommend them be built at least to 1/4" over the american standard (38" 5iron). if you can get used to that length the clubs will reward you beyond your expectations.

i posted over there but i'll chime in here too. the monacos are so well balanced that i think you'll swing these with very little concern. as far as a comparison between the aerotechs and monacos, i have the i125's in my af-tours so i'm probably not a good person to ask regarding the i95's.

the monacos are so well balanced that i doubt you'll have any problems.

as always...looking forward!

yeah, once people hit these they tend to fall in love. i still think i prefer c-tapers but i doubt i'll sell my monacos any time soon.

that's gonna be a tough one...but good luck! ;)
