  1. Can you tell us the differences between this and the iE model -- one says Straight/Smart (IS) and the other EASY/EXCELLENT?
  2. reading the other LOOP thread....it suggests there is a shaft coming for just such a golfer -- the BW.
  3. what about a shaft for the faster swinger who wants to keep the ball from going RIGHT - which is the far more common problem with amateurs.??
  4. are they in the same ballpark or rarified air as 7D ? And what about costs ?
  5. I'm going to have to see the eye doctor -- can others look at the two posts (Honma BeZEAL and Miura PP) and tell me if they feel the topline photo of the irons looks similar. It's the same photo!!
  6. also -- the over-head shot showing the topline of these irons looks suspiciously exactly the same as the Honma BeZEALs ???
  7. OK TSG -- you also just hit those sexy Honma BeZEAL irons and we need to know....if you were going to game one of the two....which is your preference and why ?
  8. Classy looking irons. When you hit these....what was the FEEL ? Soft enough?
  9. just checking on what shd be obvious -- the hot metal iron is the SOFT feel option and the titanium aimed at distance improvement?
  10. interesting gear -- and look forward to reading any reviews....particularly on those UT's wth the diagonal scoring lines. I see they are about $500 each, so they had better be really good.
  11. The GIII gear is very good, but they are going overboard with $8k -- could have made it still very nice and charged a quarter of that, giving more people a chance to play some special equipment.

  13. At their price-point, think I'll just get 1 and learn to be very versatile with a #7 iron.
  14. at over $800 per shaft it will not be everyone's choice despite the awesome quality.
  15. 7D coming out with space-grade carbon fibre golf balls for only $90 a sleeve - definitely on my shortlist.
  16. love my 7D and will be interesting to see what comes from them in the future -- iron shafts ever?
  17. looking forward to hearing what people think of these after hitting them - because they sure look sweet.
  18. the Yonex gear has created a lot of talk - and positive feedback - at the Merchandise Show in the USA this week and looking forward to seeing a review from Chris or someone.
  19. Gotta go and eat something after seeing all of those photos! Yes I agree that Italy has so much to offer and a wonderful place to visit. Venice is a favorite, but the golf courses there have too many water hazards for my liking. The Italians make great cars - amazing clothes - the cuisine is sensational - it's all good....just wish they made golf clubs!!
  20. Yonex N1-MB irons and Triprinciple hybrid Yonex’s new N1-MB irons, forged from S25 Carbon Steel, add a touch of feel to the muscle-back heads with a graphite plate placed behind the face, which helps to dampen vibrations at impact, according to the company. The irons heads are made with a low and deep center of gravity (CG) for a higher launch, making them more forgiving than the blade irons you may be used to. The Tripricinple hybrid, with one of the most awe-inspiring new designs at the PGA Show, has a cavity cut into its crown and grooves that run diagonally instead of horizontally. The grooves provide more consistent spin from various lies – especially wet grass, according to Yonex – while the crown’s cavity lowers CG for a higher launch. The new Yonex hybrids also have a reverse-flow shaft matching system that’s lighter in the longer lofts and heavier in the shorter lofts (the hybrids are offered in lofts of 20, 23.5 and 27 degrees). Their bodies are made from SUS630 Stainless Steel, while their faces are made from 455 Maraging Steel.
  21. we definitely need to hear from Yonex to explain those diagonal grooves. Maybe you have to buy 2 of the same loft - one for draws and one for fades!!
  22. the existing, traditional grooves have not stopped most golfers hooking and slicing (yes, poor swings to blame of course)....so we must read with interest why Yonex has gone this way. Some nutty professor might have come up with a way to help reduce the unwanted side spin. And the first clubmaker to find that Holy Grail will make a fortune.
  23. might be gettin em a tad off the toe
