  1. Ideally I like to see everyone put the same type of swing on different drivers, not always possible but if you have a square head and switch to a 2* open head and put the same swing on it you will be headed right so a person who uses a closed face just needs to make more drastic adjustment moving to an open club face but still not advised as it's just more to tinker with. If your bad shot is a hook ( sometimes ) I suggest square, if it's often I suggest open. If your bad shot is a slice I suggest slightly closed like 0.5* but if it happens a lot, I suggest getting the swing worked on vs going 2* closed.
  2. Yup even the 14* flies higher than other 14* which is a very good thing imo.
  3. I would suggest Grandista with a Fuji EVO II as a safe bet.
  4. Fujikura MCH should be added to that list. I like TRPX but to me it plays stiff to flex. DI Hybrid is nice and straight but lacks feel. ATTAAS HY has lots of feel nice higher flight super easy to use. I wish Crazy still made the Black UT, my all time fav.
  5. Your real world feedback helps a lot of members, its all spot on. Yes the 10g is a different material as well.
  6. Wow look at these huh, TSG Club Works takes the already awesome Buchi VS200 irons and mods them into these black boron beauties, these pictures are nice but in person these look out of this world. Yellow paint with white sheep + # and fuso dream logo look classy too. Design Tune has some new made to order Modus 125's in black that would look killer in these if we change the paint fill to red/white with red grip. But tops would be SEVEN Dreamers Iron Shafts in these.
  7. I think there are a few reasons, the first could be confidence while over the ball but the other could be necessity as flatting a head out for a more shallow profile could make it appear larger. Who knows but this is a limited club designed for a very good player so it's not really meant to appeal to the masses. It's also got a very open face for a stock club.
  8. 410cc Forward CG Low Spin 9.5* = 1.5 Open Face 10.5* = 1.0 Open Face Mid Launch Flight Coming Soon!

    TRPX Aura is a step softer and lighter. TRPX X-Line and X-Line 75 "heavy" is also another fast swinger aggressive style shaft. this goes back to my point there are 3-4 players shafts in the line up with little to explain the difference other than a few clues and the weight.

    I agree with Vega, Zylon is a material not a technology so apples and oranges. Zylon, Boron, doesnt matter its the design, how and who its made by even how much of something they use or who supplied that material etc.. I just wish TRPX would provide the info for us maniacs, Japanese brands heck most shaft brands dont provide enough info to help the player know what shaft to select in their extensive selections.
  11. Yup public starts on Saturday.
  12. Wow this project is evolving! looks great at address! something odd around the neck but youll know for sure when its in the metal. Hand polishing is key by a guy with an eye so dont go sharp edges. also find a factory with low min qty, under 100pcs hopefully. then send me a couple i will do some mods to them taking it to the next level. keep in touch! your going places!
  13. little stud! smartest dogs ever congrats on your new best bud!
  14. This is the calm before the storm! I think I will start posting new content before the show to get a head start. Land in Japan late Monday, Tuesday I will kick things off. Show starts Friday. Besides golf clubs you guys want Japan experience stuff too?

    They don't make many of these because it's a hard swingers shaft. Made of Zylon no idea what that translates into in the real world but it's a slightly heavier 67g range tip stiff shaft that feels better than the Aura imo. Aura feels a bit invisible yet light and tight, this one has more heft to it and feels more kicky. I suggest for faster more aggressive tempo, someone with a hook as a bad shot.
  16. I've hit the new UT into the simulator and I think it can give the A-GRIND Proto some competition. Have not hit the driver or FW yet though. Yup Grandista is legit! the shape of head, face, it's all really nice. feel is good too and with a DAT option and SP700 option you can't go wrong. I do notice it is higher launching than my Jbeams but not as high as RomaRo Alpha which is another good fairly low spin higher launching head. Grandista is better though. I have one with a Crazy CB80LS II regenisis shaft and I thought it would be too much shaft for me but it has worked out to be very straight mid launch with a ton of roll. Sometimes I forget how great Crazy's shafts are.
  17. Mob those came out great, hope your satisfied and they feel great & wear great for you.
  18. Sorry I got to this one late! Yes consistency, We are about the same age, I've been doing good for just over 1 year now. BPI BCAA I think tastes great! I also hear great things about this co. I use it because it's sweet and tastes like im cheating. I have actually been to one of the top supplement manufacturing factories in Cali inperson what an interesting experience. dozens of huge garage sized bins of dried leaves/herbs being moved by bull dozer, room full of fax machines getting quotes from the herb/mineral dealers all day long from all over the world unfortunately most brands go with cheapest. Lot's of science but also lots of marketing with many competitors made right along side each other. It's often what extras the brand pays for that make the difference and if they have their own testing lab which is not cheap. like golf clubs anyone can make their own brand it's more a question of are they willing to invest in making it a great brand. I can't stress enough the importance of mental reconditioning and changing ones context. pod casts, motivational videos, last thing at night, first thing in AM, while I work out has been a huge help. At the moment I'm listening to: - The Joe Rogan Expereince - Invisibilia - Explain Things To Me - On Point with Tom Ashbrook - Slates Political Gabfest - The Tim Ferris Show - Youtube stuff at gym Just trying to absorb different people's realities with the goal of learning + motivation, becoming a more positive person, and staying on track with my goals. Yoga I also give a lot of credit it's helped my back. Struggling with rotator cuff injury right now and on 800mg of IBProf. Working out 5-6 days a week sometimes takes it's toll on me so I have to know when to back off. Not sure if any of this has helped my golf game though. we all have our own theories but my thing is no warm up, no stretching, no caffine, and eat small bites throughout the round with some sort of energy chew at the turn or shortly after.
  19. Me too I love Lexas, I also love Merc. I've had the GS F Sport & LS F Sport latest models and the ONLY reason I dumped them was because F-Sport breaks squeak and Lexus can't fix the issue. Moved to an S550 and loved it, then moved to an X5 V8 for the kiddo and it's alright.
  20. Oh man! What a collection! I'm a big AP fan myself and I'm drooling over the offshore you got! All my watches are in a security deposit box in Vegas for the next 3 years :( - Brietling B01w/ steel & gator band - AP Automatic Royal Oak 39mm Rose Gold w/ rose gold & gator band - Casio G-Shock MR-G MRG-G1000 I've liquidated everything else, please email me if anything you have is for sale I would sport any of those in a heartbeat!
  21. Just these: Nicr Satin Nicr Mirror Jill Nickel Finish
  22. Keep it simple, Fujikura EVO II for $250 in the proshop.
  23. Go woth Fujikura EVO II, same exact materials but with MCI tech in the tip at a much better price point, its also the newer shaft.
  24. The customer will request a weight & flex. 130g is no problem. Heavy shafts are the easiest to make it's the light shafts that take more expertise and better materials.
  25. My diet often is: AM - Shaklee Meal Replacement Shake whey balanced carbs/protein During gym - BPI sports BCAA drink artic ice flavor After gym - piece of 15 grain bread with almond butter + 2 eggs + fruit w/cottage cheese take my pills, L-Carnatine & CLA & Shaklee Vitalizer Strip. Almonds if I need a snack but bo more than 20 dinner fish or chix with veg + brown rice/white rice mix or salad. 10mg meletonin at night. sounds healthy right? but come weekends im drinking multiple bloody marys, beer, & wine, stuffing my face with whatever lots of rare red meat and I do this 1-2 times on saturday and once on Sunday.
