It's the JP series that my contacts in Japan are saying stay away from. The rest is the same product as Japan BUT notice the pics are small and don't show the TRC's saying the JP name on it. It's because they don't exist yet supposedly.

Rumor is that RC is coming back to the U.S under a different name and product in 2012 with some really bad product. There was a bit of a battle within and the bad guy's won. Stick with RC Japan product and your safe. You guy's see the new blades in the proshop?

I would recommend quite a few other drivers before suggesting RC for the big dog. Are you trying to create an RC only bag?

I play the new EGG spoon. I can nail that thing as long as my driver sometimes. It's reliable at about 240.

VS Tour irons are extremely underrated! They feel good, forgiving, just an all around fantastic design.

Fun post indeed. For me going back about 9 years since we started TSG. The things that have scarred my mind are: Irons: TourStage MR-23CB U.S Spec & Tiger Woods Miura Irons & Epon Technity Pro I Driver: Epon 460ZR and now the Ryoma FW: PRGR EGG & Royal Collection Type BBD Type H Wedges: TourStage MR-23 Maru Spec Wedges, TS Izawa Wedges, Fourteen Original Prototypes. Putters: Gauge Design (JAPAN) **RIP** & G-Field Premium Zone **RIP**

I play 52/58 combo usually. I have issues with the 105 ish range. I can get my 52 to 105 but consistency suffers as sometimes I over swing. I de loft it a bit with a forward press and i lose the stop and drop result I desire at that range.

Nice, I totally agree that the Fourteen V5 T.S is one easy to hit wedge.

That's wild! 140 is serious business, Do you swing that fast when your playing a round?

Of all 3 I'm only big on the 302. 302: Its a slightly larger than compact players CB, nice rewarding feel when hit center. Forgiving for a players CB and one of the best feeling out there. 502: Pretty forgiving, but there are better feeling ( this ones a bit numb ) just as forgiving irons out there with less offset I would suggest. Go Titleist VG3 over these or ONOFF Forged 2011 702: Same forgiveness as 701 but in a better feeling by a good margin. lots of offset, very long distance due to multi piece design. I would go PRGR Egg Forged.

997 is the designation for the current generation Porsche 911. in 2012 we get the new 991 model. The next gen Porsche 911 The new GT3 RS 4.0 could go down as the finest 997. Only 600 made, sold out already.

pretty much for feel. Truth is that brands can name the same material face differently with only the slightest adjustment. Really I have no tech data to say which is better. It's just my favorite drivers always have Endo manufactured or DAT55G faces.

Endo Forged Proprietary VL Titanium, ELF Ti both which are Cup faces and Japanese made DAT55G are my top picks.

Land Rover stopped producing these in 1983. The schedule is 2013 for the concept and 2015 for the production model. have a look:

It's pretty easy with a buffing wheel, compound, and for cavity backs I use a dremel tool to hit the tiny spots. I just hate how time consuming it is. Here are some comparo pics. PW: 6i

That was me who wrote the blog. If you look at the top of the posts it will say TourSpecGolfer or Gocchin and have our little avatars next to it. In regards to the brushed satin "look" I tape of certain areas and put a couple of different brushing wheels to it. Here are some example pics of clubs that used to be shinny chrome: Before the process:

If anyone is interested we have 1 set left so PM me.

I don't know anyone who has hit both the 901 and 905, Your gonna be the first..jk

I think the head is the biggest contributor to the trajectory here. It's Jbeam at heart and the smaller Jbeams fly low with very little spin. Very straight! 8.0 is crazy! I've seen some hard hitting nationwide tour players give Tatsuro's Jbeam 425 10* w/787 combo a whirl and its straight with the perfect trajectory. These are all 8.5 kinda guy's with X flex shafts it was fun to see them hit some of the best drives they have had with a 10* stiff flex.

Last years Ryo Ishikawa Yonex Forged CB's. They are non conforming we have a few of the last sets left. Head only.

Every hosel is different. IMO the Best way is to slide the pulled shaft in the head and measure the complete length then. I play my drivers at 45". I enjoy 44.75" this allows me some wiggle room for tipping when I rarely decide to. Ask your club maker to always dry fit the head to figure out actual swing weight, length, and even cpms. Many clubmakers just cut and paste, It depends on how picky you are. many times I cut and paste because I prefer not to change the clubs original design by hot melting. I want the tip section of the shaft to play active by design so I don't want a wood weight in there and I want my club at 45" even if it comes out at D0 or a bit lighter I can adjust to that vs changing the head forever.

Check it out guys, the new 905 Limited MB's by TourStage. Pretty damn sexy if you ask me. Just wish I could handle them. I posted pics of the 905 CB in the GTI Blog today. Both are gonna get a review with Tatsuro. Any questions please ask here.

Tipping a driver shaft just because makes no sense to me. I usually say start a bit longer test it un tipped if it need something then yank and tip if necessary. I usually only tip if I'm sure its the right shaft or it has most of the characteristics that I desire and I only find it needs to be stiffened up a bit or fly a hair lower. In low end shaft tipping will increase CPM's and that's about it. In higher end more specifically designed shafts tipping will not only increase CPM's but can possibly change other factors incorporated into it's original design.

Now the rules have changed a little. We can sell Roddio shaft only. Yea tipping it very slightly increases the CPM's quite a lot. I have never heard that you are not supposed to tip Roddio's and I went to their training in Japan. I forget how many mm = 8cpms. Not sure. I have a similar problem with slicing, and like you certain shafts go dead straight or draw when I swing like a mad man. It's usually how I get my longest drives. Just overall the WA isn't the right shaft for someone with a slice.

I would say Yururi Tour. They have a grind that allows you to open it up with stability. Some wedges open and rock back and fourth. This one doesn't. The sole is not overly round or large and would do well on harder and tight conditions. I can also give you a good discount so PM me sir.
