  1. That head is open model, not available any longer as well. Prob the best shaped version any company has made using this one.
  2. ha! Good on you for guessing correctly, you seemed pretty confident that you had the right answer.
  3. IMO you don't need a grinder or an iron with no offset, a little bit of offset is a good thing for forgiveness and performance. With a 0 offset club you must be precise and square at impact. A little bit of offset gives you that split second extra to get the face to square or turn it over. Yoro Mizuno or Buchi would be a good custom route to take. TourStage, Miura, Srixon are worth a look as far as OTR options go. Going to a grinder and asking them to shave an area or angle a grind so it looks thin may not work. They will have certain limitations just as Miura, Mizuno or Tabuchi would have with the orig mold. Most OEMs won't go to 0 because they know the forgiveness would be diminished. Find a head that looks the part, then make sure you have the loft, lie, length, swing weight, grip size, flex & weight proper.
  4. Win! Again! It will go out Tuesday to You Congrats. Gotta implement the rule can't win more than once every few months. This guy is good it is the KA-1 forged. Face is soft because its raw.
  5. Once someone guesses it I will announce the winner immediately. You can guess multiple times. Clue: One of you got close and listed the brand it comes from but the wrong model.
  6. Its a wedge made in the last few years. It's JDM, It's forged in Japan and spins the ball like wild. Very soft feeling face :) First to guess the wedge gets it!
  7. Yes sorry just not enough play time with it yet using other shafts. I think I can have my opinion by mid next week. Off to play a round now. Today it's got the CB46 MoFo in it.
  8. I guess I'm not running into that because these were new shafts.
  9. 4 Driver Heads - 4 Crazy Boron Stiff Shafts all at 45”. When assembled all shafts are within 3 cpm’s of each other. The normal 254-257 stiff flex range. Maxima 388 XV GS 455 GS 460 So a few things we noticed: In the 388 and XV the C.Boron plays the same while in the George Spirits heads and the Ryoma Maxima it loosens up in the tip a bit. I took one of the C.Boron shafts and tipped it a quarter of an inch and re installed into the maxima and it played closer to how it did in the SYDs, not sure if that made it better or worse.. The GS heads really woke up with C.Boron, Especially the 460. The 455 mono and the Maxima are noticeably similar in face shape & and the triangular shape from above is similar. The Crazy Boron is incredibly consistent. We have had a couple of top club builder clients tell us it’s the roundest and most consistent shaft they have seen. If the hosel depth is equal in 2 drivers the distance the hosel is from the head can still make the same shaft play very different. Check out the diagram below that Tario made I think it explains it pretty well.
  10. GS Mono does have an awesome face. I can't wait till it's made without the floating slit.
  11. excellent color scheme on the Kendo putter Craig, good move asking T to design it!
  12. Could that be because many JDM players irons come stock with X100's?
  13. I have a buddy who lives nearby who has one and I re shafted it twice for him. I haven't gamed this a single round but have hit it quite a few times next to the 388. It's pure, long, beautiful yet also demanding. Compared to the 388 its a lot less forgiving imo. I'm not a great ball striker.
  14. Your running a chiller on a fresh water tank? Yes good luck with the driver!
  15. Goodsie does amazing work! Highly reccomended!
  16. Your new driver ships tomorrow! Congrats again! Ill do another one of these giveaway posts later this week!
  17. I don't associate many TM or Ping drivers to be the benchmark of forgiveness Perhaps the Glorie Reserve? I consider the Ryoma D-1 and now Maxima to be the standard in forgiveness. The XV will play with less spin keeping the ball straighter, if you hit it off center you would get a more forgiving result. Less hook and slice. It is a players driver in setup, trajectory, and feel. Average golfers only need the right shaft to make it work.
  18. That's great to hear. Thanks for comparing it to the 901.
  19. WIN! Man I thought no one would get it. PM me with your details!!!
  20. Was surprised a bit that your looking for one of these. Fantastic FW. So was the GD JPN FWs and now the latest FW by the same designer George Takei is nearing release. That would be the one to get if you liked the G-Field.
  21. Stew how'd you like the Boron? That or the LY shafts should get you mucho carry provided those shafts get along with your swing. I think the XV in 10.5 would play very close to the 388 in 10.5. I'm curious to see which one you think feels better and performs better.
  22. No one has guessed it yet, as soon as someone does Ill announce it. You can have as many guesses as you like.
  23. This Driver has been available for some time now. It is JDM and the first person who guesses which one it is will get it free including shipping. The only other hint is that its design is supposed to increase your head speed... Good Luck!
