As many have noticed we brought back the George Spirits brand to TSG. The new mono GT455 driver is pretty sick it's got a 2 Piece body: 6A-4V + FACE-DAT55G cold forged in Japan and better players will appreciate that the 9.5* is a whopping 2* open while the 10.5 is 1.5* open and the 11.5 is 1* open. The mono 3D forged iron is wicked as well, it's soft, its forgiving and it's still compact. More compact than the new ONOFF Forged but with a cavity that is just as deep. The limited muscle back irons are in the Video as well I believe there are only a couple sets left, in person it's very clean and simple with a near perfect shape. The GT-SW Pro Forged is solid, it looks neo but from above it's compact and a near perfect shape while the sole is narrow yet the mass near the heel makes it very stable and heavier head. Of course the putters are in there as well! Please enjoy the video!

Yes beetle horns and we will work with them on that..lol It's really bad imo. Remember now what GF does to a putter is the customers choice. He isn't putting gold nuggets on it if you only want your initials stamped. Yes GF knows balance and CG thats why he warns customers when they go overboard. GF used to design fully milled putters from solid block for Gauge Design. I have it as you almost have something against GF based on the way you poke and compare it to bling, plastic surgery, etc.. etc.. I find it obvious in what you say about them, and thats no problem as everyone here is aware I have strong feelings about several brands as well. But what perplexes me is that you like me love great things and I'm telling you GF is the best at what they do... In the WORLD and by a Mile. They take great putters and make them even better, yes with the same CG placement, they can reduce or increase weight, improve roll, for sure improve balance.... OR they can put something ridiculous on it per the customer request. I think your missing out especially if you have the bones to try it. Just ask so many in this forum. Knowing you like great quality, craftsmanship and technique where else would you send your putter for kick it up a notch? No offense to anyone but we've seen the work that the U.S guys do and it's not nearly at the level of GF nor do they have the capabilities to do as many things. There is only one way to find out right? Here's a brief run down of the thought process of a GF customer: Hmm... I really love this putter (scotty, Hiro, or whatever ) but I wish it was center shafted and a little bit heavier... and wouldn't it be cool if it came in smoked chrome and had a 4 leaf clover or dragon on it. I also like those weights that Sasaya does but It looks too heavy. Let me ask Gocchin if GF can make the same weight but only a few grams heavy instead of 10g... Tario responds with a quote that has suggestions and brings up any issues that he or sasaya have noticed with the design request. Damn thats expensive...lol...jk

I don't believe 92mph can get your 250 yds. I think most people have beer goggles on when it comes to their own distance. They must of picked the perfect swing on the LM to produce 250 from 92mph imo. I used to think I averaged 250 but then I realized with multiple trackmans and LM's that my average is around 228. Of course there is the occasional 270+ perfect condition down hill runner but thats not average.

I'd love to learn about your other hobbies, we are probably on the same page in many instances. I notice you enjoy watch references what else? I don't fault GF one bit, they openly use the word blank or replica when dealing with Kitada heads. GF is like an aftermarket car company, what they do is improve performance, feel, and asthetics of all putters from Scotty, Odyssey, Kitada Blanks etc... I really respect them for doing what NO ONE else can. Can other companies do what M.Sasaya does... nope and not a single one. GF is the Novitec Rosso or RUF of the putter industry. Does it bother you that Kitada is considered an Open Model Putter Co. selling their blanks to companies? Or that they don't make their own steel or finish their heads themselves? It would occur to me that you would take issue with that. Again the Kitada heads are a blank canvas for customers to be creative with GF modifications, is it's GF's bad for giving customers that option or is it Kitada's bad for selling blank heads. Based on stamping, I'd much rather take a blank Kitada head sent to GF and have an engraving of my choice added than the two beetle horns and a circle K, but to each is own. That said, Kitada does use great JIS SUS303 and with a few shape and engraving adjustments we believe can become a much improved brand. That's why we are meeting Kitada-san next month in Tokyo.

The team at BALDO has a really good design team I must say, not sure if I'm feeling the term NUD. A good shot = you just nudded that ball!

Haha! I'd prefer Epon doesn't say an item is limited if they have plans to re-release it. It get's under my skin when companies do that sort. On the other hand they did lose one of the greatest designers and presidents to S-Yard and EPON will have to adjust to not having Kobayashi-san around... Expect S-Yard to take off in the next year! In regards to a Personals MKII, A side of me hopes for a MKII but Epon isn't sure where the rumor started. If it does happen lets hope for bigger changes than just stamping.

I ordered with the stock shaft stiff flex and a 10.5 loft.

As usual with GF you need to come up with the design and have it quoted custom. If your looking for that exact putter we can definitely quote you, please PM Gocchin for that info.

I don't think either of these to brands make the most forgiving forged cavities nor the best. Also if your looking for feedback please state what models.

I notice many smaller brands have this issue in the very beginning. I remember George Spirits did, TSG had it first then we had some issues with finish & supply. yesterday I received all his new products in hand. OMG has it improved. I will be posting a lot of that very soon. It just takes a good year before these brands begin to pull it all together.

I'm betting these will sell out rather quickly like most Epon bags have in the past. I have the blue now ( last gen ). I'm ordering the white. Or that denim crazy bag...

Stunning wedges! I like the font of the 60* on the sole. Enjoy!

Thanks B, ordered me a couple sets of the Recoils. 1x tour proto 110S. And 1x tour 95S.

I noticed a little less distance with my Epon Personals so I bent them strong by a couple degree's. It took a few rounds to get used to but it's made a positive difference, now I'm thinking about a reshaft. Tried the Modus 3... not bad, I recently tried monaco's not bad as well. For my swing KBS-Tours performed and now bogey dogs got me thinking about those new Aerotech's he's been playing. I love these irons I just need to get them dialed in correctly.

Hard to get, still waiting for mine.

Did you get your VG3's with graphite originally?

I like the look of the RF551 best and especially in this new finish. The 502 was for me the more forgiving club. The RF551 had a more clicky feel while the 502 was muted. The 551 compared to the 302's I think the 302's feel better. Also look at the new 2013 ONOFF Forged! I think that could be the ticket.

I think the finish will be the same. Black would have been sweet!

I believe this month, you guys will be the first to know.

I believe all Zens are gone now. I also heard that Epon is re-releasing the i33 putter. My first question was if there are any differences? Not 100% but hearing they will remove the rockwell hardness text and change the site line color and the font of the i in front of i-33. Not sure what you guys think about that? The original release was limited to 300pcs.

Got all samples coming in a couple of days, will post pics and hit.

I hit the new onoff type S, it's got that silver top and flies very stable and low. It was a little difficult for me to hit high. I'm waiting for my yamaha's, they will have steel hybrid shafts installed. I tried the last version of the Yamaha UT and it was almost perfect. I could have used a little more forgiveness.

No they never sell anything on the last day. You can't buy anything on any day. You can't even leave the hall with a golf club or it causes a big fuss.

I have a friend named Ben who can help you. I've known him many years just tell him Chris from TourSpecGolf sent you. Here is his company URL: http://www.golf-shizuoka.com

right and the Epon feels less hollow and softer on center strikes. The Ryoma is more forgiving no doubt and absolutely insanely hot off the face in the ST model.
