Iomic Grips?
I would use a non abrasive thinner, I think white thinner or somthing weak. They have been known to tear if there isnt enough care in the installation. very sweet grips though.

Forged J-spec Iron recommendations...
Epon Type X or PRO II should do you good. How much offset do you like, what sort of topline makes you feel comfortable?

Yup Thailand, Also keep in mind you can take the best forging and give it a crappy finish and it will feel like poop.

Tourstage is made by Endo Miura is made in Japan & Taiwan Mizuno forged products are made in Japan Srixon is made in Japan Honma Beres is made in Japan Several more also. I think Endo has the best forged product in the world, and I am a hardcore JDM fan.

Help choosing a Japan-spec driver...
Its available in both, but the non conforming versions face gets scratches easier than the conforming. I only ship out conforming unless the customer requests the HR model.

EPON 460 any reviews?
Thats great to hear, Plus1 has tried so many of the new import, tour and domestic clubs i really think he has a good concept on feel, performance, and adjustments. Im glad you liked the driver, its expensive but well worth it. If you can find a shaft that suites you then your golden.

New irons suggestion
The MP-32s are great clubs. i loved them in the mid to short irons yet not so much in the long irons. Remeber this guys, Handicap measures how low of a score you shoot not how good of a ball striker you are. KZG used to use kyoei and they felt great, they then switched it up and are using a chinese company now and still feels decent. What i have learned over the years is that some people can feel or hear the difference while others cant. Price is IMO the biggest factor for the majority of golfers, people who can afford it really dont understand that. I just spoke to the post man today, he said he wanted to purchase the best quality irons in the world but could spend no more than 400 bucks, I then had a flashback to when i needed to save up for a month to buy the then new Callaway X-12 irons. Its not easy laying down the $$$ if ya really cant afford it. If ya can then its a whole different story.

FT-3 with PT-6?
One of the best shafts on the market. No joke, its the diamana killer. In Japan its #1 The entire PT series rocks! Thanks, Chris
-
New irons suggestion
Type J or the Type J, I also suggest the Type J :tsg_smiley_yes: Here is my reason: 1. Head weights are a tad heavier 2. Its ENDO's best forging 3. tolorence is .25 where other brands is +/- 1 degree 4. Quality control is at a tour issue level 5. Shaft options are vast 6. they perform

which speeder is AXIV 6568?
none, speeder is old tech compared to an axiv, i would say about 10 years old adapted from fishing rod weave tech. read the thread on why axiv shafts are so good. also keep in mind the speeder and axiv feel, play, and perform different.

Mizuno JPX 310 Ti face irons...
Hit them on a grass range in japan. They are not as good as i was expecting, distance control was off and it had too much offset for me.

I have wondered the same exact thing, I am not willing to try it myself but I think the PRO I is under there.

Help choosing a Japan-spec driver...
Yup that ZR-600 does look good. Early reviews score it above almost everything else on the market. I suggest for a low to mid/high handicap player: EPON 460 .5 closed stock shaft( very forgiving with great feel ) Callaway ERC3 stock shaft ( may not be for you as it has a lower flight ) ZR-600 stock shaft ( havent hit it but it looks worth a try ) Taylormade R7 460 stock shaft ( forgiving with a similar flare to what you play now )

Miura 301's--comments please
I guess we see soft and firm in different lights. The Mizuno clubs finished in China sold in the U.S are IMO firm. The ones finished in Japan feel soft IMO. All miuras IMO dont feel as soft as brands like Scratch, Epon, Tourstage, and Custom Mizuno. I also really wish they didnt use spin welded hosels to save money on tooling for multiple lofts. Dont get me wrong now, im not miura bashing, we do good Miura sales and i buy them to test each and every new set they release. After seeing whats available from Himeji in regards to raw blank heads, i truley do believe this was somthing they made for the U.S market on a budget. Go CB-1006 guys, you will be very happy with their new design.

EPON 460 any reviews?
Drop me a PM tell me what you need and i will give you an about date.

Miura 301's--comments please
I would have to say Miura isnt as soft as many other brands out there, firm and pure for sure. The 301's are a very basic 80's design style cavity back. They could even be a discount raw head. If your going to select a Miura the 201, CB-1005 and CB-1006 are IMO your best choices

EPON 460 any reviews?
2* Open needs to be ordered and it takes 35 days. For two degrees it has to be built not hand picked.
