JDM equivalent shaft...
Are they progressively weighted like the rest of the set or are the 2 & 3 iron shafts just longer 4 iron shafts?

JDM equivalent shaft...
Thank you Chris. I typically play 2-iron thru PW in my irons. Do they or can they make specific 2, 3 & 4 iron shafts? I see that you sell a set that is only 5-PW.

JDM equivalent shaft...
I cannot find the AeroTech SteelFiber Players Spec AMi99 progressive weighted shafts any longer. I am wondering IF there is a JDM graphite iron shaft that is progressively weighted (lighter at 2-iron to heavier at PW)?

JDM Putters
I have considered getting a Gold's Factory putter. What, in your opinion, sets them apart and warrants the price tag?

213 STX or K grind miura?
Good choice...you will not be disappointed. Please report back with your thoughts.

213 STX or K grind miura?
Another vote for the K Grind. I have the 52⁰ & 56⁰ paired with the Small "Baby" Blades. Needless to say, I Love My Miura's!!!

2017 Iron Recommendations
I highly recommend the Miura Small "Baby" Blades. People shy away from them because they are blades, lofts aren't jacked up, and they are SMALL. Honestly, I truly believe that they will make you a better and more consistent ball striker. As far as CB's with the longer irons, I am not the one to ask because I carry 2 iron down to 56⁰ wedge. I am not a fan of the hybrid clubs. I do not feel that I need to be "rescued".

Driver Itobori
I find that it plays true to loft. I ordered mine at 9.5⁰ and 0.5⁰ open club face. The sound is, umm, something special. It is quite loud. Loud enough for some people to dislike. I thought about getting it foamed but, I don't mind the attention...especially when I bomb it over their drives.

Ryoma 2016 Maxima
I have both the ZY-7 and the Itobori. I am absolutely LOVING the Itobori. ZY-7 has the stock sx shaft and the Itobori has the 2016 AAA shaft. Both are great clubs. The Itobori seems to carry forever. Both get a fair amount of roll. Much more carry and roll than the M1 I was playing previously with a Veylix Rome 688 shaft.

2017 Iron Recommendations
Miura typically does not release anything new until they have made improvements. Most other manufacturers put out new stuff just to put out new stuff. For instance, the Small "Baby" Blades were introduced in 2009 (I think). Then again, not much to improve on with them. IMO

My backup bag
They are beautiful. Is there any distance loss with the copper? I am REALLY considering a full set of the blades.
-
Miura MG-S01 Wedges
Yes, it will wear and eventually rust over time.... to the best of my knowledge

How are you liking the Itobori Irons? I have been eyeing a set...

Gotta Have it Contest Entry Thread - Enter Here
I have been playing golf for 27ish years and, up until this year, I have only played US equipment (with the exception of the US offered Mizuno and Miura products). As I get more involved with the JDM offerings, I can clearly see and feel the differences in attention to detail, quality, workmanship and overall pride that these artisans put into the products that they offer to the consumer. I have purchased a few products through TSG such as the jBeam ZY-7, the Itobori Limited Driver with a beautiful AAA shaft, an AGrind 3-wood with a speeder shaft and a Honma TW-U 2 iron. I have been shopping and researching for a set of JDM Irons that will suit my game and then this contest comes along. I respectfully request that my name be thrown into the hat for the Set of OM Series Heads 4-PW. If I am fortunate enough to be given the opportunity to own these, I will definitely have TSG build them with the correct shaft that fits me. I will be the best form of free advertising for TSG. I will represent the JDM market and TSG to the utmost. Ok, enough with the schmoozing and a$$ kissing...I REALLY would like to win these.

More photos of the Itobori Black
What shaft is being used in this head? I absolutely LOVE the look of it. Driver swing speed is 105-110 and I am looking at the 9.5° head.

PRGR RS Fairways & Utility Woods
So, I am really new to all of this JDM stuff but, the PRGR offerings are looking pretty sweet. I am thinking that I could game an entire bag of Pro Gear clubs.

Weight screws for ZY-11
How about the ol' faithful lead tape? Or, try using Hot Melt. I would actually use the lead tape to determine exactly how much weight and exactly where it is needed prior to using Hot Melt. Of course, that is just my 2-cents...

3-wood advise
Thanks again....I am ordering the Honma. Do you have it graphite or steel? I am actually leaning toward their stock graphite (Vizard UT950 Stiff). So, the search for a 3-wood continues...
-
3-wood advise
Thanks for the input. How different is the Type R from the "V"? I am looking at the 3+. Also, I see that you have the Honma TW-U. I am looking at the 18⁰. Any review on that as well?
-
3-wood advise
Thanks, The RomaRo Ray V 3+ (14⁰) was on my radar before. Any idea how their stock shaft is?
-
3-wood advise
So, I just ordered my first JDM driver (jBeam zy-7) and now I am looking for a 3-wood. I am a 2.6 index with a driver swing speed of 105-110. I am not sure at all about how any of these JDM fairway woods perform but, I am kinda leaning toward the Maruman Shuttle or maybe the Conductor Pro X2 or the Crazy CRZ or AGrind or possibly a PRGR or jBeam or RomaRo even the Homma TW727. See, I have no idea, that's why I am asking for input.
