  1. I've never seen or heard of Titleist doing that sort of thing, I highly doubt it, I'm pretty certain it's a no. As for Epon it's not a hypothesis if we have all seen evidence of it.
  2. I actually have no car right now, I'm a chauffeur for my wife in her new ride so I will start a separate thread later on her car. Tario's EVO makes me want to build a car.
  3. The Type B is in the Maxima ST... it's stupid long and really tames the Maxima's wild characteristics, I've got some range days in but no full rounds as my main track was being re seeded and has just opened up, happy to play again after 2 weeks off! I feel this shaft flex and kick but what's interesting is how stable it plays while having that much give, I do see how it's basically a heavier more stable version of the Type-A, so guys consider both shafts the same but in different specs for different players, it's actually 46T to be exact not 50T. What's cool about it is I could swing at full strength with the Maxima head which is something I wouldn't dare do with other shafts, the focus of the Type-B is really all about timing, getting that club face back to square and putting on the power, Perfect for any club with a large sweet spot, I don't think I'd go for it for small unforgiving clubs as the main benefit of this shaft was I can swing out of my shoes and get a reliable result. It's up there with the Quadra TP-V, if your a more aggressive swinger I would definitely have a look.
  4. Here's the skinny on these, and yes we are working hard at getting another set 50/50 looks to be. The Titleist Limited 100MB is made in Japan only 100 pieces to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Titleist. Obviously a muscle back it's been given sharper more sleek edges and angles which some brands now claim to increase the players ability to focus at address of the ball. It's got slightly heavier heads than usual but the most interesting thing is that inner tungsten weights have been added in the 3 thru 9 irons for a lower center of gravity, increased inertia and better performance for off center hits, yes a Titleist iron with inner tungsten weights :) Titleist has also focused on feel decreasing the vibrations felt through impact in what they call a "cupping effect" when hitting center, the standard shaft is the Tour Issue S200.
  5. Total Weight: 532g Head Weight: 361g Swing Weight: E3.1 Lie Angle: 71.5 Loft Angle: 6* Real Loft: 5* Face Angle: 4* open / Shaft Angle: 1.3* open Frequency: 360cpm Shaft: Gold's Factory Original 34" Grip: Gold's Factory Original Black
  6. Yes my ATTAS is Japanese! It's made in Japan, it's the most high end ATTAS, the other UST products are made in Bangladesh for the most part. Your pic shows the GEN 1, there is also a GEN 2.
  7. Yes these are golds to replace the old school lucky, independence, hanya, stealth etc.. this is the new 2015 lucky.
  8. Like T, I'm a product nut and will be going with the Cybex Aton Apex ( not a car brand ) My car is nowhere near as cool as this Evo!
  9. This car is seemless, planned and executed flawlessly but these pictures just gorgeous!

    And if all goes as planned Tario will be working "with" TSG not "at" TSG in the near future...:)
  11. These are almost sold out and TSG has reserved a couple. Black and Yellow still available @ 400 + 100 Shipping.
  12. Originally it was supposed to be black, that was the idea because it has a reverse engraved clover so if all black only the surrounding area would be green which would have added a cool effect, but it's already expensive we didn't want the price to be 1900 so we went with the stainless finish blasted. Working on more reverse engraving designs.
  13. TSG Club Works can CNC your grooves non conforming, add milling marks across the entire face, copper underlay, fresh new finish and paint fill. NiCr Satin with Translucent Purp to match your Hiro!
  14. Back order already reaching into the first week of October.
  15. Those Fourteens used to be uber expensive and hard to get way back in the day. Guys send your clubs to TSG works! the stuff coming out for customers is seriously bad ass!
  16. Japan is not going with the 850, not sure why. Nice Irons Ash! do report back on how they feel. FYI guys MP-15 was just released for some Yoro Craftin! No stamping options but you can change finish, grind, and paint fill etc..
  17. Excellent Article, I'm going pretty heavy (for me) fingers crossed, did very well with FB so let's see how this goes :)

    Tario is doing well, he is still doing some work like TSG special projects, the upcoming golf show, and 83 category descriptions at the moment but just way less and not in customer service. I'll ask him to jump in this thread to say hello!
  19. It's interesting they have a disclaimer now for a touch of rust on the laser milled areas on the face because I noticed that on the CB358 that a friend had who plays 3 rounds a week and had them since release. I'm excited to try these, could be my next gamers. First batch of standard builds ship this coming monday!
  20. Crazy has no shortage of designs, when Tario and I were last there they had shafts to last them well into the future but with the crisis which lead to a major drop in domestic sales then debt none of those designs made it to release... now they are back on track to release a few of them. While Abex and a couple of others did leave Toyoshima and more stayed with the company and are working to transform it with new products and designs. These new shafts seem to be more neutral and fit a widder array of golfer, much like the route TRPX took so they could make fewer shafts to fit a bigger group, I've already hit the Type-A in Stiff it's really really good, I swing 98 -103mph on average depending on what I'm hitting and at 46" even at 4.6 torque my fade is the perfect draw swinging about 80%. Swinging 100% it's a hook but who swings 100%? Type-B I have not hit yet, gonna need to pull a couple guys together as at 80%+ it may be a little too much shaft to provide me a good result. Both shafts have the thin tip walls that Crazy is known for. Next Crazy Shaft release is in November and yes it's made by Crazy Staff in the Crazy Factory in Adachi. I want to get these new shaft's into peoples hands, so email me [email protected] and I can give you a good price on an already good priced shaft :)
  21. One more thing I would like to add is the higher tonne torque does not equal better, Today you can buy 80T, 100T, 125T materials for low low prices but the question is who made it, how was it made, where was it made, and how it's weaved, designed or implemented, the type of weave and design can increase the price astronomically.
  22. Torque means less now days especially with 80T and even 50T as it's purpose is to snap back to original form quickly. Going from X to XX for a lower TQ # is not the way, go up a flex for your swing speed or because X flex is too soft. Shafts with lower end materials rely on TQ for feel and dispersion characteristics while better materials and design have changed how we should perceive this #.
