  1. Yes MCI and the new MCI black can be ordered .355 but in this case with Miura heads he needs to bore anyway even to fit those.
  2. Even if your shafts are .355 understand that Miura heads need to be bored out anyway as they come smaller than .355 standard. No bore = No shaft no matter the tip size and I wouldn't suggest sanding the tip vs boring the hosel to the proper size. If OEMs reem to .370 from .355 why is it not good enough for you? Always use a professional clubmaker, if he hasnt told you this time to find a new one.
  3. This is black boron
  4. I play no sight line or dot myself but just about everyone requests a sight line. imo its not necessary.
  5. The best carbon shafts available are: Mitsubishi OTi 75/85/95/105 Fujikura MCI or MCI Black Series just released Crazy STP and of course the Constant weight/cpm Seven Dreamers Shafts Coming in August.
  6. Teramoto has their own shafts AND they can also refinish other brands shafts. The standard putter shaft is available in heavy weights like 120/130/140g weights.
  7. Teramoto does shaft finishing, it's 100 bucks a shaft in black, too expensive but very nice quality. Teramoto putter shaft is good, I have only hit it with VM Tech inserts so I can't say how they feel alone.
  8. It's a Teramoto Shaft.
  9. I would still go 7D, the fitting form is vital, no other shaft is designed specifically to you, the head and final build specs but also huge is they will remake the shaft and design if your not happy. Nothing compares.
  10. Figure about 14k for all 14 clubs to be shafted.
  11. The current owner of this putter loved it so much he decided to make another...
  12. I'm in total agreement with you, the 568 FW & UT are some of the best JDM woods for the better player. It's a deep face but they have positioned so much weight down low it gets up quick for a medium trajectory. The owner of LOOP had one with the FW Six shaft and it was an absolute monster. The DAT55G forged cup face also puts it in a class of it's own.
  13. These are not released yet, expecting June still. The prototypes have changed a lot, it's amazing to see the process 7D goes through evolving products to the highest standard. Tomorrow I'm headed to their Shiba HQ to test the latest iteration which is: - Constant Weight when Installed - Constant CPM when Installed If your a club geek you know how unique this is.
  14. The question being asked the most about this iron recently is what is the difference between the PP-9005 vs PP-9005G Genesis version. The answer is simple, Miura Giken has found that they can have identical distance and forgiveness in a slightly smaller and improved shape so in short both perform the same it's just from address everyone prefers the new 9005G Genesis version.
  15. I've been getting questions from players who have a bad shot of a slice or strong left to right ball flight asking if this open faced driver is ok for them, my opinion is to get the 440cc version, the two are similar but the original 440 is just more user friendly all around. Go Y-Proto if you naturally hit a medium ball flight with a pattern of draw and bad shot of hook. What this will do is give you a mid/high launch and reduces your chances of a hook.
  16. ZY11 w/7D vs ZY11w/AAA 60S The results are very similar, what's interesting is both shafts go about creating this result two totally different ways, the AAA does it based on materials helping the player square up quickly and keeping spin and trajectory down, the 7D does it by structure/design custom to my swing. The 2015 AAA performs nearly as good as the 7D matrix shafts The 2016 AAA performs closer to an L01 but a little more tight and a lower trajectory I favor the L01 for feel and a high launch low spin, had to remake it once for a tighter dispersion but after that it's my favorite of all time but considering it's cost the 2016 AAA becomes a value.
  17. When you say midsize do you mean similar size as the ONOFF Kuro'? the 16 CB was designed to compete directly with the Kuro's.
  18. There has gotta be a ton of reviews as we have shipped many. I've hit these on the range and in the swing cage at the golf show and compared to the 2014's they are longer, more forgiving, totally different type of soft feel, lower launching if I remember the 2014's correctly, slightly larger. It's for sure an improvement and while the previous 2 versions were fairly similar these new VG3's are completely different. It's closest resemblance is the T-MB in flight and distance with simply better feel and forgiveness.
  19. Yup thats exactly right!
  20. Size wise they are just a bit smaller heel to toe than the AF302's. Your correct that they are larger than a traditional blade in top line and sole width but the offset on these are like a blade at next to none. Feel is very soft, forgiveness is very good and don't forget how great they look in black:
  21. My new L01 will not be ready for another 2-3 weeks so I'm shafting it up with the YZ-Speed shaft by Jbeam and plan to give it a go on the 22nd. May is the official release, TSG has pre-ordered a bunch as already people are snapping these up.
  22. Unfortunately I have not hit the CMB series yet, I have hit the R1 and that thing is a true players blade and pretty small from edge to edge, In hand the CMB is slightly larger but not by much, I think what the CMB blade has going for it is that it's specs, shape and flow blend very well with the CMB cavity backs. I don't think people really need the CMB blade in the combo as you say going from DI to CB is perfect enough and comparing the R1 CB vs the CMB CB the top line is thicker as well as the sole it looks more forgiving. Comparing to Epon, well both the R1 CB and CMB CB are more compact than the 302, I would suspect just a little less forgiving as well, we can't compare them to 703's as thats a multi piece design with a stainless face thick with extra offset.
  23. We have made many different iterations of this MB and have found them very soft and forgiving for a blade. The difference between the Red2 vs Blue2 is only the cut away on the mid/short irons of the reds. Previous prototypes had totally different shapes and sizes along with wide sole long irons vs narrow sole, we hired a couple of professionals to test these out and they immediately wanted to bag them but we are not ready yet, there are still some things that need to be worked outand I don't know where these fit in the grand scheme of our 2017/2018 line up. The SEVEN X Shinagawa collaboration being a true players MB have definitely earned a spot as our flagship players blade with a shape to die for and feel + forgiveness to match.
