  1. Wow good question, maybe I scared them away..
  2. Starts with this and then they create Gundam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdPpWy_O09k&feature=player_embedded#at=378
  3. Thank's frank, I thought this was about China? Ferrari and Patek are not Chinese brands nor do they contain chinese parts. I'm not attached to you agreeing with me but let's just go into this categorically. First let me say that Patek doesn't make the most accurate watch, it's amazing art, craftsmanship, detail no doubt. Does Japan have the equivalent watch or auto company like Ferrari or Patek, In my opinion NO but they do have products that are definitely more advanced technologically and superior in accuracy of function. Invisible solar cell and atomic timekeeping is something I don't see in China or Europe. Yes I would take a Patek over any Casio. Food Materials: Meat, Eggs, Fruit, Fish (hands down Japan's attention to detail, quality of feed, and care of livestock or produce make it best in the world) Autos: 1990 skyline 4 banger turbo can toe up with the latest Ferrari's and Lambo's. Porsche uses Japanese transmissions, Lotus uses Japanese parts. Today's sub 100k GTR eats exotics in the Ring stock and the everyday driver can reproduce straight line results with launch control. Ferrari, Lambo, etc.. are dangerous on wet roads. Electronics: Don't even have to get into this do we. Materials: Japan has the highest standard Steel, Carbon, Knives, Motor Oil, reference J.I.S standards versus every other countries. How does a country with almost ZERO natural recourses create such amazing things? It's the work ethic, attention to detail, focus on one thing and one thing only for life, the dedication. That's not found in Europe or the U.S at the same level, for sure its not seen in China. The Japanese still struggle to convince the world that their cars are as good as other countries auto's but it's not about convincing the world, it's about building the best possible product. look at Toyota Crown's they are 75k Camarys, nothing like a Camary but that wouldn't go over well anywhere else. China is mass production. They are able to manufacture affordable products which is great! most of the stuff in my life is made in China. I do drive American & European, I have a Breitling, and G-Shocks, but I am totally clear on what's insanely amazingly great vs just good and stylish. Just one man's opinion here.
  4. Yea, very familiar with Romaro. It's made in Himeji, review comments in Japan were that some of the design features and aesthetics get in the way of function. Resale is not so hot as well, originally it was a spin off of Gauge Design Japan not so much now. I would suggest spending your money on something different.
  5. The J38 I would assume are forged at Endo.
  6. Hey Frank, Not to much wrong with made in china for the average golfer but for those who are addicted to having the best clubs money can buy it's an easy choice to go with Japan. Like electronics "made in Japan" electronics are a cut above the rest. It's all about the detail and quality in Japan.
  7. Yup MB5003 is IMO best blade Miura has produced and I would choose those over the AF-Tour, in fact I have in the past. I played my MB5003 with Roddio graphite. I have a set of new MB5003's with NS950's at a steal if you PM me.
  8. Good eye duffer! yes its a custom car the back door is still there just no handle as that rear fender flare reaches much higher.
  9. 905CB limited is one of the sexiest players CB's ever made! and it won't be available for very long. I would go with the 905CB hands down, not taking anything away from the Fourteens by design and yes I have hit both IMO they are a little more forgiving. The TourStage is pure players cavity though.
  10. Hows the Jbeam 425 Tour? Ive got one in silver 10* that I'm about to shaft up with a Nero.
  11. Yururi makes some interesting looking yet amazing performance wedge heads. I'm using the Rupas 60* and its my bunker savior, Tario also bags one for the rounder sole and it's easy to hit. The face is raw so it feels pure at impact. conforming grooves as well. Their new Chili wedge has a good shape and the bounce options are designated by 1 chili 2 chili 3 chili. they have a 57 w/18* bounce. and a 57* w/ 9 bounce. They are only sold in 51/57 lofts.
  12. So here's and inside the ropes update, The new Shingo driver is still in testing phase for the Japanese cowboy. There are several versions on the field right now. When they do finalize it TSG will be getting it.

    I hit it and it was very difficult to get off the ground. Stew hit it and same result. I'm going to be bagging the new Fourteen Hi610 T.S instead. I think this Z-iron would be good off the tee but as of now I'm afraid of this thing.
  14. Interesting, I'm a fan of those exact same shafts my result was big increase in carry and much much straighter shots. it reduced fades and pulls. What was happening for you? I'm aggressive with quick tempo and I come over the top with bad swings.
  15. IMO When you find the right Crazy that fit's your swing properly nothing beats it. It's ranked #1 in Japan ratings and long drive competitions in Japan. Quadra FE is a close second. This year Muziik enters the mix with the new 787 Speeder!
  16. We have 5 Shingo Spec Roddio Drivers coming to us. Will post pics and video this week. I will not be listing these in the proshop, they sell out too fast. Members first. More Info Coming please PM to reserve... X-Flex Only!
  17. Epon AF-702 Irons & Epon AF-152 Driver Our samples are coming!
  18. I love it! young jonnie shacho!!! We share the same dream!
  19. Its not as chunky but many of the people in forums would call it thick. How about you tell us what you do like and if you want something more forgiving. I'm already thinking Titleist VG3's...
  20. Oh darn, I better change that sig! It's oooold! I was talking game improvement irons which relates to this post and was thinking the Yamaha D-Steel ( cast + maraging face ). V forged tour is for the very good player, V-Forged would be ok.
  21. TourSpecGolfer replied to big67's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    Yes its a very solid driver! Not often found used or for sale now days. If its in great shape I would ask 450.00 head only and have your perfect shaft installed at your specs.
