would you say that the Loop IP is the lowest launching shaft that they make?

I'm using an OnOff '11 Forged CB #4 iron (Endo) which is nice and compact and I find to be very long, very forgiving and very straight

LOVE the RS-F! Terrific head if you want a smaller profile with a shallow face I also LOVE the 14* MA01F! You're description is spot-on The OnOff '17 Kuro 15* is also a great Ti FW with a small profile and shallow face

yup I agree, my newest model clubs are Seven and I have a couple of the OnOff '17 Kuro woods. otherwise the rest of my gear are older models that were definitely Japanese manufacture and that's all I really look for to buy anymore too

THANK YOU!!! I asked this question almost a month ago on here when I noticed the new irons are s20c instead of s25c like the older irons.. i'd heard that the 737 lineup was made in China and wanted to know if they were continuing that practice or if they switched back to a Japanese forgery because, you know, "Made in Japan SAKATA" I was really hoping that Honma had switched back to a Japanese forgery, SO GLAD somebody was able to get an answer tho

i cannot believe the 120x is only 327! That shouldn't be labeled "x" should it? I'm very happy to have read this though, great post, because I've always been a huge fan of DGx100 and i currently game Shimada K' Tour X (which I also love), but I've always been very interested in trying either the 120x or tx because they're so popular, and I also really like KBS Tour 130x which I thought they'd be similar to

try emailing Chris, he might still be able to obtain a set for you

i have a similar setup for which i have blade pw-5 and i bought OnOff 2011 forged CB #3 and #4 irons, Endo forged so although it's not Epon it's really close and they're really great irons. then I use a 19* 901 instead of a 5w or hybrid. If you can hit the 901 well then I think it'd probably be a really big difference, distance wise, going from your blade #5 to a 901 #4, you'd probably have a big distance gap between those two clubs. I get just as much distance from my 19* 901 as I do with a hybrid so it's a pretty robust club. going right from a blade to a 901 would definitely leave a pretty big distance gap for me even if the loft gapping is the same. having the CBs in between makes for a very smooth transition between clubs for me. however, my set is more about loft and distance gapping than anything because i like to have a club in the bag for every shot i might come across

hi Hunt, are you still in the market for this river? I have one that would be right up your alley. Drew

I noticed the new Honma irons are made of forged s20c, in contrast to their past TW irons which were forged s25c. my question is: does anyone knows who these new Honma TW irons were forged by, because to the best of my knowledge I don't think Honma has ever forged their own irons? in addition, I heard rumor (but do not claim to know whether or not it's true) that Honma had begun outsourcing much of their manufacturing of certain products to China, specifically for the TW737 lineup. IF this is the case, I'm curious as to whether Honma has continued to outsource manufacturing to China, specifically their irons. If not (or if they never did, as their "Made in Japan, SAKATA" engravings lead one to believe), I'm also interested to know who or where their irons are forged.

the new Romaro Ray Type-R Ultimate Tune driver says in the listing that its face is made of a special mix of materials, including SP700. I was under the impression that there is no more SP700 being produced because the last factory that created it closed. I'm wondering if anyone has any information to clarify this discrepancy?

I know nothing about it but found a pic, not a fan of "Waoww" at all

I don't blame you for deciding to keep those KZGs. Those are from back when KZG still used Kyoei for their forging. I also use a set of KZG Kyoei mb's and a handful of backup clubs with the same heads... i'll never get rid of them, they are amazing . and this set you have listed lppks pretty amazing as well

not to repeat what's already been said... but, damn, those ARE gorgeous GLWS

PM'd

That Geo Galaxy is absolutely beautiful.. where would you be shipping from?

The AD DI Hybrid shaft is by FAR my favorite hybrid shaft.. I have a DI 85X in Modart MA01H 19*, a DI 105X in an Epon AF-901 19* driving iron. It is little bit different load/launch profile than the regular DI wood shaft, the launch is pretty much a perfect Mid with a Mid-Mid/High kick point, but I absolutely love them both they are probably have the most consistent shot dispersion I've ever used in a hybrid shaft and they are just soo reliable.

I have the p9003 in an Epon AF-203 15* wood with an iomic sticky 2.3 gray grip.. it's a beauty of a club to say the least, and you are correct the p9003 is an amazing shaft. I also am a big fan of the M9003's

I pretty much use exclusively TourAD shafts in my drivers, woods and hybrids; several different models. I currently have TourAD BB 6X, (2x) TourAD GP 6X (normal and black models), TourAD p90003, TourAD M9003 6X and 7X, and TourAD DI Hybrid 85X and 105X shafts. Love them all, by far my favorite shafts that I've ever tried.

the TEE website store must have found a couple extra CB5's in storage because they've got the 3 wood listed new for only $120 right now; I also snagged one of their CBx hybrids from last year because they have a beta-ti cup face and are supposed to be pretty good so figured I'd give one a try

found another one.. but get this, it's NOT JDM: TourEdge Exotics CB5 fairway wood. So far we've got a total of 3: 1. Epon AF-203 wood 2. one of the Cleveland Launcher Comp wood models 3. Tour Edge Exotics CB5 wood anyone have any more?

nope, definitely does not HAVE to be JDM, although I assumed any would be and am surprised to hear that Cleveland had one. although I mainly have JDM clubs (like most of us) I do also have a couple of select clubs from USDM brands: Piretti, SeeMore, Exotics, KZG, Evnroll

Hello all -- I'm trying to find out which fairway woods (if any) have SP700 faces, besides the Epon AF-203 which is a forged SP700 face. Can any of you fellow gearheads recall any fairway woods with SP700 faces? If so, lets hear them...

What are the playing lengths of the two of these??

I would be so into this club if it had a price for head only.. but I totally understand not wanting to separate
