  1. So Chris, am i right in assuming that these are non-conforming but legal? Sorry a bit confused about this reading the posts. Thanks.
  2. I suppose what I am also not getting is that as it is in relation to the hosel, if I set up square then all it will do is push my hands a miniscule amount forward (1*) and alter the loft a bit lower (which actually I am happy with). Does this make sense. If this is the case, then for my swing the 1* will be inconsequential - or am I missing something. Honestly I cannot swear I address the club with a 1* accuracy every time I pick up my driver, that's for sure!
  3. Could someone tell me whether the ZY-11 also has a deep hosel? If so how does one build a longish club (46.5" perhaps) - will I get a raw shaft long enough to be able to insert it all the way in? I feel more secure having it all the way in than shafting it 3/4 in. I would not trust my club builder here, sadly, to do it right. The head I have my sights on has a 1 degree closed face angle so this should help squaring up the face with a longer length, I hope.

    +1 for a wide-bodied blade or mallet please. :) It pains me to see all those beautiful putters that I cannot game !
  5. Hutchy, what's the VS T please? PM me...
  6. Hi If I buy a driver head (used) closed 1 degree, am I able to adjust this in the build to make it square please? Is there something internal used for alignment that may prevent this? Related to this...does a 1 degree from square face angle actually make a difference to you? Any thoughts? I would also like to build this as a longer club (possibly 46.5") just to try and I suppose that the 1* closed face may help in squaring up the club better? Look forward to hearing from someone please.
  7. These must be the most beautiful irons I have ever seen. Makes me feel like playing an MB and hang the scores...who cares :)

    I wondered how the Shimada Tour Lite plays please? Say compared to NS Pro 950. Will it launch lower but with the same feel in terms of kick? I don't like my iron shafts too stiff and boardy. Also has anyone played the Constant taper...what can I expect from that please?
  10. Wonderful pictures Chris. A pity we did not get to meet last year and I could not host you at our local golf club - a beautiful 7,200 yard championship course. Of course, any forum member coming to my neck of the woods is welcome to contact me and we shall arrange a game here.
  11. The Asiri looks well priced. Would love to know if anyone has tried them. (Although secretly I would love to try the Ray gold head non-conforming one).....
  12. Chris, what is the lead time for a set? Are the stamping logo etc. a paid option or included in the price please? Thanks
  13. Oh my God!! Who snagged this ?? One lucky guy!! awesome ............
  14. These irons look really beautiful. Arrggh...I blew my wad too quick! (hope I am allowed to say that). ...although I am still a happy camper! :))
  15. I am considered a more than good putter in our little circle of golf players and feel that my Ketch has helped me make more 6' putts than ever before. I use a heavy putter at 388 gms, but one that feels lighter due to being counter-balanced. This is my second counter-balanced putter and at the moment it is my preferred combination.
  16. Haha!! Terrific :)) I couldn't hit them!

    Two wonderful bags.....and a most wonderful forum member!

    LOL ...I am also looking but for a 503 AW please....
  20. Awesome looking bad boys! Can some experienced forum members comment on the longevity of the Black Boron finish please? I understand that they are more durable than any standard black finish but read conflicting reports, some saying that they remain black but just scratch lightly, while others saying the finish does not wear well. Any feed back would be most appreciated.
  21. Would someone let me know if the Hi-Cor Romaro Ray driver would survive my swing speed of 100 - 104 please? Always been curious to see what distance gains can be had from a Hi-Cor product. Thanks.

    Oooof.....how can I get so turned on just looking at drivers!! :)) LOL
  23. Thanks. Disregard my earlier PM please. Does anyone know how differently the Modart A-55 plays to these beautiful wedges please?
  24. Hello. Msg me if you would like to try a TRPX Messenger 1st in SX.
