  1. The Japanese retail R7 is more expensive than the U.S version. retail price is more and cost is more. I wish it was cheaper.
  2. The Tourstage Synergy was a hit for slower swing speeds and women golfers, Tourstage has just created the Synergy Deep Hard Spec with a deeper face and 1 degree open angle meant for professionals and long hitters with fast swing speeds.
  3. Actually no I cant get you one for cheaper than a TP retail..sorry There are Asian fake clubs then there are Japanese fake clubs and the Japanese ones are identical. For example I sometimes get paired up with sailors from the kitty hawk battle group and was told that 200 sets of hong Kong pings, callaways, & Taylormades came back to japan on the ship. These clubs feel and look like fakes but to the average eye look authentic. T he Japanese are so good at what they do it is almost impossible to tell. Most fakes are sold in bulk to shady used golf shops. Tour TM fakes are shipped to the U.S. and I have seen some CT Cameron's that are perfect to my eye especially the new copper looking ones. As the Tour market grows the fake market grows, I hate these people and I hope lightning strikes them. I think TM needs to do what Cameron does with its authenticity codes or a site to verify your tour serial #.
  4. 410.00 shipped and paypaled If anyone is interested. These putters are on par with their wedges great quality and look the milling marks are very fine. If you like this design there is also the Type 3 by Kevin burns/Tourstage, & Bettinardi 360XM very very similar designs.
  5. If you had purchased 1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth 49.00 With Enron you would have 16.50 left of the original 1000.00 With WorldCom, you would have less than 5.00 left. But If you had purchased 1000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the aluminum recycling price , you would have 214.00. Based on the above, current investment advise is to drink heavily and recycle. Its called the 401-Keg plan. :lol:
  6. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...MEBWA%3AIT&rd=1 He is trying to play this off as a tour issue bag..lol what a joke saying its extremely hard to get and very rare..lol This bag is a retail japan bag that is very easy to get and not even close yo Tour Issue. 235.00 Shipped if ya guys are interested.
  7. There have been many threads about TM tour stuff, but what I'm interested in is how these clubs are making it to the hands of so many people who are not pro's. I refuse to buy TM tour clubs in Japan because many are retails adjusted to look like tour. While at the 2004 Tokyo golf Fair the top dogs at TM told me TM is not building Tour heads to be sold to the public and that if purchased in bulk they must be fraud and that Tour clubs are never shrink wrapped for players. I beg to differ because on the TM site they have pics of Freddy couples driver and verplanks driver in the tour van with shrink wrap. There is no clear answer how these tour clubs are entering the market but perhaps with a little investigation we can find out. I do know tour reps, caddies, and friends of Pro's leak these out but that still doesn't account for the huge number on the market even if they are #1 on Tour. What scares me is the Tour issues that only have no serial #s and a square or open face. In Japan all the first releases have no serial #s and a face can easily be opened making it feel as if the ball flight is lower and more penetrating due to a decrease in loft. I own a bag full of TM Tour stuff and was thinking about this long and hard when comparing a DF to a Japanese TP. Any Opinions? Scully?
  8. I just found this Japanese R7 bag that will not be released in the U.S and only made for special order by TM Japan by the 10th of may. I ordered 4 of these on the 9th and attempted to purchase another 4 on the 11th...no luck these should be the most rare TM bag made due to no advertising and only a 2 week window to make special orders. They are expected to arrive last week of may. I have 3 for sale...because one is mine :o I'm willing to ship it USPS to avoid high shipping charges with staff bags. First to confirm gets it. it will be very rare as soon as the R7s hit the U.S and by then will be next to impossible to get. I also have extra 10g weight plugs for the R7 available if interested. Bag: 420.00 Shipped weights: 10g X4 70.00 shipped
  9. To be honest i dont know if these were coming out in the U.S. My best guess is that they are, I dont think blades will sell very good in Japan.
  10. They were released about 4 months ago. They are the Kevin Burns Tourstage putters w/ or without inserts. They are very very good putters not so heavy but great quality nice black finish and pretty expensive. THey didnt sell very well at all.
  11. For ya bett lovers this is an AWESOME deal. retail is 50,000yen new.
  12. What shaft does it have now? Is it a Japan or U.S GD? I suggest a 150g NSpro putter shaft nice and heavy feels really nice. Also if 110 grams is ok the Fujikura PT110 has 1.2 * torque.
  13. I think he needs to take better pics. Maybe he will chime in :lol:
  14. I just got set up with delacruz golf and will soon be selling their clubs in Japan and via TSG. Mr. Dela Cruz is a class guy and has invented technology in some of the worlds most famous clubs including the S2H2 system for callaway. http://www.delacruzgolf.net/
  15. I just got a reply from Dunlop Japan and these are a new design made for Japan only. They used the words Japan limited and told me 300 were made for the retail Japan market. If anyone is interested I will have actual pics posted tommrow. I have 2 sets for sale 975.00 shipped. Thanks, CHris
  16. There are several new types of Mizuno Proto's floating around now on the JPGA tour, take a look: The first has a more rounded toe, heel and sole. The second has a triple bounce . The third has flat sole making it sit flush for the better player.
  17. Yes the U.S versions are made in Japan with small differences that are difficult to see if you don't know about them. Japanese Miura is not available in the U.S but if you must have the Japan version please PM me i can get them for you.
  18. I have never seen them bridgestone Irons before. They remind me of the MP27s, they look great! there is Miura Japan and Miura north America the 5002's are from Japan. To post an image first click one more time and thats it. Welcome to the site!
  19. Just released, Im not sure if they will come to the U.S but they sure do look nice :D
  20. Anyone know the story on this shaft here? Specs? Im curious if it would play well in a FW.
