  12. Epon SUS316 & Miura CB 1008 LTD comparos

    in Japanese Golf Clubs

    Posted

    I wrote it before - but I never felt anything as buttery soft as:
    Tourstage 705 type M
    Shimada tour lites 
    Mazda slickfit

    I gamed Miura 501 for 5 years with Shimada tour lites and Mazda grips but these didnt even compare to the sensation of the Tourstage..
    Currently I have epon 503 with shimada and the softness is not even near (thinking Endo forged both 503 and tourstages)..

    Maybe for me the Shimada tour lites (very high CPM) gave me a good feel off the face? or maybe the stiffness helps remove vibrations? or maybe a lot is in the grips?

    Anyone who tried Tourstage 705-M and SUS316? i'd love to get a comboset too...

    Hello everyone, 


    Anyone tried their new series? K's-NINE 9

    I gamed the Shimada tour lites in stiff in first my:

    tourstage bridgestone type m with masda slick fit - these shafts together with those heads very the softest i ever hit. Had the Miura 501's prior but these didnt feel as muchy... Then went on to epon 501 and as of late 503's... but the shimadas are so much softer feeling in terms of impact than my current modus 120's.. 
    I like lighter shafts - and curious how Nine 9 perform.. Anyone? =)

    Used the MCC Plus 4 for a couple of seasons but noticed that they wear pretty quickly.   Size wise perfect for me.   But recently switched back to Iomics ... IXx 2.3 series is really grippy but seem to last longer (so far so good)    I just build mine up with two tapes full length and additional two on the lower section to mimic the MCC plus 4 profile.  

    I think my way of gripping a club is useless as Iomics and No1 grips wear in a couple of weeks/months... maybe a bigger grip wont tear as much....


    Anyone tried the Jumbomax? would love to try having an baseballbatsizedgrip  on my clubs ?

  19. Wedge shaft preferences

    in Japanese Golf Clubs

    Posted

    Hello,

    What shafts do you guys prefer gaming in your wedges?

    Do you most of the time game same shafts for example in a 50 - 54 and 60? 

    Do you  find any pro/cons to gaming a softer flexed shaft in a 58 degree compared to a 54 for example? 

    Anyone went from a heavy shaft 130 grams to lets say a 100 grams and saw big differences? 


    I've tried Shimada HW and currently S200 and must say I like the feel of the s200 more - goes higher but not high.. the HW felt really low launching with good spin.. Was thinking of going a new route just to try.. 

  20. Putter shaft weight

    in Japanese Golf Clubs

    Hey guys,

    What is your take on the weight of a putter shaft? 
    I've mostly gamed nippons with a weight of 129-149 grams - also tried the dogatti...

    Do you find that the more SW the putter has the more forgiving it is? Or the opposite - a lighter head with a lighter shaft feels easier to get on line? 

    I bought the superstroke flatso 2.0 which is 50 grams just to get the sw in the high range and I like it... I was thinking of buying the heaviest nippon shaft and cut it down to 33 or 34.. always been playing 35,25... 


    I also got my putter down to 69 in lie angle which for me seemed to help a lot.

  22. FEX UT 100 shaft similar FW and driver shaft and modus 120 for epon 503

    Bought 2 FEX.. put one in my driver.. and out of 30 drives (played 3 rounds of golf all on new courses that I havent played before) only 1 ball was lost due to a water hazard.. Somehing with that shaft is just working so thank you Supo!!! The 5 wood I hit one of my best shots ever today too.. the shaft is playing a little bit over 3wood lenght but havent decided if i should tip it .. butt it.. or just keep it that long. ?

    I had the Prototype 75x in a driver a year or so ago. Too long for me at 46.5 and possibly a little heavy for me back then. I think these were the proto version of the TP-V. Possibly a little heavy for me back then.  

    Last time I checked my ss was 107.

    Regarding flex, I think it's all about 'feel', I prefer the feel of an 'x' because I 'feel' that they have more stability.

     

    Ill try a 65 grams in the driver in stiff or so.. and either stiff or x in the 5wood as i can have that shaft not tipped... Should be working just fine ?
