This is basically the 5005 but with 21g weight moved toward a much wider sole for more forgiveness. IMO it does look better with the standard Miura global logo in the back cavity. IMO anytime you mess with the blades back side too much you kill the feel which is why our customers who were blade lovers never stuck with the 5005 for very long, which btw was released in 2015. So we had user feedback 2 years before the global version was released. Then when released in globally everyone loves it! I'm not sure how this works. Are TSG'ers just more feel oriented than the global consumer.? How could no one pick up on this?

Yes should be up in the next 48 hours. It does cost $350 bucks though due to how its made. Im not sure if people will actually follow the lessons. I had one before I had the lesson guide translated and simply loved it because it was so difficult.

SOLID GATE by Benock – You are looking at one of the coolest and most sadistic putting trainers the golf market has ever seen. Oh and by the way it’s better made than just about any putter on the market, pure quality micro-milled of A5052 (JIS) manufactured in Kyoto Japan at the Benock HQ. The Solid Gate putting trainer allows practicing of repeatable putting with focus on aim and distance control. The emotion of nailing a put perfectly and getting the ball to stop on one of the two notches will make you ecstatic. By requiring perfect distance control and aim it really helps in creating a zeroed in focus which ultimately makes the cup seem huge when you are on the golf course. The Solid Gate comes with a guide that features 3 lessons. After taking those lessons you pretty much understand the idea of why this putting aid is genius. There are two dimples one on each level and the ultimate goal is to putt the ball to rest and stop on one of them. It starts with establishing your baseline which helps you assess your ability by measuring your current dispersion. One must understand that putts that pass the target do not count as a putt made. The first lesson is to stand at a distance you are comfortable putting from. Then try to hit the ball firmly with the strength to reach 1m ( approx. 39 inches ) beyond the front edge of Solid Gate and aim to the right or left of the center dimple. If you are able to get the ball to roll off to the right or to the left from the 2nd level channel shown in light blue, this indicates that you are putting with the right speed. Next, try and hit the ball with the speed to reach 1.5m ( approx. 59inches ) beyond the front edge of Solid Gate and stop it at the dimpled section at the center of the 2nd level channel. This requires you to putt with a side deviation of less than 1mm from the center line. This concludes Lesson 1. Lesson 2 – Practice putting 50cm (approx. 20 inches) beyond the front edge of Solid Gate. Practice putting with the speed to reach 50cm ( approx. 20 inches ) beyond the front edge of Solid Gate and aim to the right or left of the center dimple. If you are able to get the ball to roll off to the right or to the left from the 1st level channel shown in pink, this indicates that you are putting with the right speed. Next, try and hit the ball with the speed to reach 50cm ( approx. 20 inches ) beyond the front edge and stop it at the dimpled section at the center of the 1st level channel. This requires you to putt with a side deviation of less than 1mm from the center line. This concludes Lesson 2. When you have finished Lessons 1 And 2, try stopping the ball at both the 1st level and 2nd level channels respectively at the center dimpled sections. Your practice is now complete! You can continue to go through the lessons over and over which is what I suggest if you want to improve faster or you can simply hone your skills by trying to get the ball to stop on one of the dimples. Its rather difficult to do but very rewarding when it happens. The Solid Gate by Benock is something every golf maniac should have in their office or home if they have a synthetic green to put on. I enjoy keeping one in my tour bag and letting golfers on the practice green experience it for themselves.

What do you guys think?

Galpha is the opposite. anti-draw so consider your shaft and spec or the weights installed. I think ZY-11 and Galpha is their best. 435 is my classic fav because feel and its long but lacks forgiveness. I have both Galpha and 435 heads in my hands now and they look pretty similar to me. I will snap some shots to show you.

#8 and AW are my favorites in CB and MCB. We are also producing SW/LW for both CB and MCB.

Here are some additional photos from different angles. Sorry I do not have short irons for you.

Here you have the new Benock White Dragon putter part of the Benock World Collection. Benock World products serve as a blank canvas designed with minimal stamping for clients to add options to. You may purchase it as seen here or with countless options and even the ability to create your own options in collaboration with the company. Follow the jump for more angles of this beautiful putter. The Benock White Dragon putter is designed for visual symmetry. It’s a center shafted which supports the more straight and through putting stroke. The simplicity of this design is very easy on the eyes and great for confidence. The face comes standard with Benocks softest milling design. You may also change the milling design with custom orders for a fee. The angles and shape of the face looking straight on is also symmetrical and this putter is perfectly balanced for a straighter roll down the target line. Some of our clients prefer this sight line on the top blade while others have ordered the White Dragon with various sight aids, even some pretty funky ones based on a unique visual preference. This particular putter in the photos has a bead blast top with a polished stainless sole, we find this to be the best finish to reduce glare and keep it easy on the eyes. The head weights can also be ordered at your request, the lofts are milled not bent and every aspect can be adjusted to your desire. Standard they come in at 350 grams and retail at 1200 for this model as seen here in base form. For the same price you may remove anything you like as long as it says BENOCK on the putter in the official font. For those of you who are not familiar with the brand Benock we suggest visiting their website here –http://www.benockgolf.com/ – Here at TourSpecGolf with our manufacturing knowledge we believe this to be the absolute best putter maker in the world.

I think so. We do have fast swingers though, not as fast as you but guys in the 100-110mph range. cant put my finger on why feedback isnt the same as TourAD and Fuji. The Mitsu iron shafts get great reviews.

Coming soon to the TSG Pro shop:

Have a look: In the above you see the Rouge has no perimeter weighting instead it has a screw. Also the jail breaks are thinner. below the 3 versions. No forged mentioned yet!

You are talking about the "closer" series correct? I know why. Its the raw blank they start with, its the only one from Oichi that has a good enough shape and also it is too compact to start with. I used the same one on the oldest Seven CB.

If you are looking for more distance in a FW simply look at Titanium heads. They are longer than stainless steel heads across the board. A lot of brands shy away from the extra cost of Ti fairways because they run nearly as much as a driver to produce. By producing fairway woods like drivers more performance can be had, unfortunately, brands understand fewer people will buy expensive FWs.

Yes they were ordered from MCW!

Yes geotech consistently releases great products. The Quelot series has rave reviews from slower swingers. The muso shafts were top material and design for such a low price. I love that they make non-conforming players drivers too.

Funny that Ari, Patrick and the scratch team has gotten over this and still work together with us yet you cant get over it. I still stand by all I said. Itobori owes us $$$ and is shady as hell. You guys have it that exposing brand misinformation in a direct manner is a negative thing. Without knowing what we do and what we create for brands your easily able to pass judgment on TSG. We show up and create and have more contributions over the last 15 years than you may know.

Everyone is bias. I like my mom more than yours. So lets avoid personal swipes at me and please don't put words in my mouth and definitely do not come here if you want the same opinion you will find everywhere else. You are talking to someone who designs, manufactures, owns brands, builds brands, visits many factories each year and that many brands seek consultation from. You get that anywhere else? learn and know you don't have to agree but understand your insults will get you 86'd fast. 1. Epon is still great better than most out there incl Miura etc.. Never said it was Shit like you claim but can go on for days on things I do not agree with. You care to know where their drivers are made now? 2. Benock is the absolute best and I am willing to debate this with anyone. You have nothing just insults. Please do your best to back something up, anything? The Machines he uses, the CAD staff he has, the partnership with NSTool makes him untouchable, the ability is like no other. including The Masterful Tour Scottys. It has taken me 4 years to put this together. what are you doing? 3. Yes I did the same thing with SEVEN, stand by all of those. which one do you not agree about? So let me get this straight, I bring you the very best products, the most critical look at brands and you get salty about what I said about a brand. I am not here for your feelings sir and you should expect this at TSG. Knowing that, what the heck are you doing here? --- Benock produces the best putters in the world. SEVEN CB and MCB are some of the best-made irons in the world... FACT. my cost per head is $230 bucks. Any other brand touch this? Anyone else willing to tell you their cost and how things are actually made with no fluff? Any real questions about why? --- My motive? uh yes sell products and RAISE standards. RAISE YOUR STANDARDS! This industry is walking over the consumer like a bunch of chums and its dumbing everything down. It will end with consumers focused on buzz words, names of tech that do not matter and forgetting about the things that actually matter. What I have been trying to do is get people to focus on materials, where its made, how its made, what is better, etc.. When you buy an expensive product do you not want the very best you can get for your money? --- I am happy to talk about Miura, Scratch, Itobori, Epon, etc.. etc.. Is anything I said not true? Spin Welded hosels, Open Model heads overpriced, no 1018 sold in Japan... I hope facts don't hurt your feelings. There are many other forums for you to be and stay at. Don't come here if all you want is roses. You know what TSG is all about. Come here if you are a discerning mofo. The reasons why I am able to know and say these things is because I show up. I didnt just read it on the internet, I go there, negotiate, push our agenda, bring the products to market, influence these brands and often deliver. I fail in many relationships but when dealing with dozens of unique individuals it is expected. What are you doing other than whining in a forum you probably shouldn't be at anyway?

CGS Orions are made in Himeji. I suspect although they will not confirm this they are hand ground by Shinagawa. I can tell by the shape. They are a level up in fit and finish as they are polishing experts so their fit and finish is better than most Himeji brands. I have tried their Himeji X Tsubame Blade and it is outstanding! forgiving, soft, just well made and nice to look at. The factory they used for CNC does have the original 2-D cad work from the original Seven irons. Not saying they used it but when we left that factory to re-create it in 3-D and use full CNC there was nothing stopping them from adjusting it. I am impressed with everything they make so far. Pro Spec Wedge is pretty awesome.

I'm not sure its the jailbreak giving you more distance. More likely its everything else. CG locations, face material, shaft, basic head design.

Yes quite a few, women and men. Ive played a few rounds with it and I like it alot. its an EPIC with better feel. I would not say the feel is amazing but it definitely is good. I tried both IZ and Fuji EVO IV. Up against the Modart MA01D+R with the same EVO IV shaft it was not as good though in both feel and distance but the Forged Epic had the tighter dispersion.

For Sure! We are sold out of those so called "fake" itobori products... Glad you guys got a good deal. Anyone here thinks the ones they bought from TSG are fake?

Quelot gets pretty good reviews. Dynamic makes some pretty nice drivers. The issue is Geotech is branded as a budget JDM brand. The performance and quality is the same as so many other brands that cost more.

0 dollars. These are just the facts. Would you like to debate the merits of my claim against other brands? Please bring your argument if so. Anyone doing micro-milling? Anyone hire NS Tool? Anyone have 5 x 5Axis machines? incl miltap Who is creating 4-6 new CAD designs a day? Who is willing to make the customer a custom cad? Who is offering 3136L as a custom option? I can go on for days. What u got?

We get a lot of feedback. Tour AD and Fujikura are the safe bets. Fujikura EVO series especially then Tour AD DI which is now the IZ get great reviews as well. Anyone that comes to me wanting a mid range non botique shaft i lean EVO IV and people are happy. Diamana does not get the same feedback as GD and Fuji for some reason even though they have great design and materials. In the high-end besides the 7D and AAA the Crazy 9 is the champ.
