Not even close! The NC-1s are in a different league than any other Iron on the market...ok maybe the MR-23s are in the same bracket but even those dont compare in feel and performance. On a side note, the Gauge MB2's will soon be shafted. I was wrong about them being considered Muscle Backs, GD says they are top player cavity back so look forward to a review coming up soon.

Im not sure If and when these items will hit the U.S but for those who are interested I can get them now. - Taylormade TP wedge ( Anyone know the U.S release? ) 169.00 +25.00 - Taylormade Corza *Center Shaft 225.00 + 25 shipping - Taylormade Corza *Plumbers Neck 225.00 +25 shipping Pm me if interested :tm:

I have only hit these into a net and that was almost a year ago at the Tokyo Golf Fair. They Rock, very forgiving with a nice setup. I have not had enough time with them to tell you more. :sad:

Yes 1150's in stiff soft stepped sounds perfect. I was a PX6.0 kinda guy until I tried the 1150 in stiff, Its a tad softer and far better.

I agree with you Godfather, I have hit the 220i but still waiting for the CX. You have it right, its basically irons vs woods and which you hit better.

I have heard the same thing, and havent seen the difference when hitting both side by side. IMO If thats the best Iron Miura has made, then the entire line is stuck at decent.

It rolls the same but doesnt feel the same, the one is softer by a little. I have hit all of the new mallet models, They all roll the same and come down to what fits your eye and will ease your mind best. I love the weight of these and the more crisp feel I get. Dont get me wrong "the one" will be in the bag again, Its just I always switch from anser to neo mallet or normal mallet and vice versa when one goes stale for a bit. Head Weight is close to 360 grams price is 399.00 shipped.

Had the most amazing 2 rounds with this putter and it has put my "The One" on the bench!

If your interested in Steel you can special order it with the M Series Steel spec shafts that are rated by swing speed M40, M43, M46. They feel great very nippon like. PRGR stock graphite is also very good.

The dream eldik for me would be the original model with a 3RTNC face in a black finish like the new SP. Actually from the top view the best shape IMO was the Eldik Ace, I just didnt like the hollow body. I suggest those that have an eldik with the SS303 weight piece in the rear send it to joe or paul and they can remove that piece and add some lead tape into it. The eldik at 360-370 grams feels amazing. As a stock putter I take the Eldik M. I do have one for sale in 9.9 condition.

I hate to say this, but looking at the spec of the 553 , I would have to say UT55. The only different is the torque of the UT55 is a bit higher, but that doesn't mean anything to much IMO. The heavier version would be either the UT65 or the PM702J or Tour AD I 65. Just my 2 cents! Joe Kwok :cool: Joe how does a utility shaft work and play in a driver? I have never tried that before but am always looking for somthing to mess with.

They are basically the same club. they feel and play the same etc.. take a look at the new models on the Japan miura website I hear they are much more forgiving.

Of all the Eldiks, I have 2 favorites, The original retail model released just after the "TOUR" versions in 2003 and most of all the Eldik M. Its the softest and best rolling eldik i have had.

The rumor now is 2 new Japan only drivers being unveiled at the Tokyo Golf Fair Feb 2006.

FYI guys, when installing Iomic grips make sure to use a light thinner instead of harsh. If you use straight up paint thinner there is a chance the grip will dry then begin to crack.

I would say its the M65 the two are very close, IMO the M65 plays tighter and will role more. The W60 is similar also yet has more torque than the 553.

Nike has some new gear coming to the Japanese market Dec. 1st 2005. The Nike Sling shot TOUR irons with reduced offset, a new 3-D C.O.G technology, and smaller topline will be released along side the new spec Sling shot OSS that has a new face design which increases the sweet spot to nearly all of its face. Two new Hybrids will be released called sling shot utilities one labelled TOUR.

The performance will be very similar between the two sets, The NC's are unbeatable IMO yet the MB2 is based off the same shape and a similar design with the same great feel. You could use them as a combo or sell the one you dont like.

Coming November: Diamana Red Graphite Design M55 Graphite Design I-65 Type2

I already have and they told me March 2006, If its out Dec. 05 all the better. Its all Design with RC, they dont have what I would call new technology in these FW's. FYI they are made in China just like their Irons etc.. Im not a big fan for their FW's but the new S.F.I Iron is pretty decent.

Its 175.00 more for the flower band Diamana. PM me if interested. Starting early November the Diamana Red will be out and should be a great shaft for FW's

I can barely see the changes, can someone please explain?

Not as nice as M.W's but it has been getting the job done big time for this young woman.

Whoa! Buff Girl :surprize:

They actually call these MB's. This model is the replacement for the current MB Irons. The topline and setup is thinner and it is supposed to be even more forgiving than the last model out. I have a only couple sets of these Heads Only if anyone is interested. I also have a couple sets of the NC-1 Machine heads on the way :cool:
