Ryoma Betond Power - No Groves?
Place a WTB ad I know someone had one recently. Great shaft & Driver but yes your right special tune + face shave = breakage. Special Tune is already not suited for 100mph+ speeds.

Ryoma Betond Power - No Groves?
Face shaving like that is risky business, also for the price that driver is in horrible condition, better deals in the b/s/t.

Zodia Limited 2015 MB's
Grand Master haha I like that. Yes Chiba-san does them all himself and everything Zodia is made to order hence why he averages 2 months. Yonex Ezone MB same deal yet shape is more Chiba. All sets are sold now :(

New Jbeam Products
Visually I agree totally I even prefer RX to the Glorious.. but.. Id rather play the Glorious as its so much easier to hit, this one is supposed to be even easier than the Glorious and higher launching which would surprise me.

New Jbeam Products
Yes head weight and face angle are custom options. Loft can be hand picked as well.

New Jbeam Products
We just added some new Jbeam Products to the ProShop, samples on the way for testing! I'm especially excited about the new Fairway Wood, usually FW's are stainless steel with the light spec or distance version made of Titanium but as we all love about Jbeam custom head weights are available!

club shuffling for next season. Hybrids to DIs
New PRGR Egg UT w/ lead tape + heavy shaft is a dream if you want consistent mid/high launching super long shots with nothing to fear.

Fourteen CT-112 vs Ryoma D1 V-Spec vs jBEAM Pro ZY-11
I like Grandista a lot but have gone back to the ZY-11 because I hit the ball too high and I impart too much spin on my drives. Ping G30 I actually have a beater club in my garage and it's great all around just doesn't have feel, look, and has a bit too much spin even though it's sorta lower spin than average. Great club for most people though but while it performs well everyone who is a JDM fan that has one likes its performance but doesn't bag it very long.

What's the word on Japan market TM M1 Driver?
My 2 cents is... Many drivers already have composite crowns, what does a carbon crown do? it's lighter on top so CG can be lowered yet the vast majority of our members especially in the forum want higher CG so... then there are the weight limitations by adding a shaft adapter (7g) to the neck and weight moving system (5+ g) so your screwed far more with these features than the savings a of carbon crown can create. It doesn't matter who or what driver is #1 because US PGA Tour players do not have access to the best equipment in the world. They use what they are paid to play or what companies have tour vans on site.

Zodia Limited 2015 MB's
A couple of months ago I posted photos of the extremely rare Roddio MB made by Zodia, those sold really quickly on TSG and for those who didn't get a set Zodia has the same model iron and shape available with a circle Z logo instead of the R and bumble bee as the Roddio model had. Chiba-san of Zodia is known for his sharp toe angles and edges his irons are all hand ground by the man himself with a focus on designs that are compact for athlete golfers. I've hit many of Zodia's irons and wedges old and new and they usually place an emphasis on a compact appearance, thin top line, and a more firm feel at impact. The new Zodia 2015 Limited MB is available 4-PW only and should sell out quickly. TSG has these available heads only or custom built with nearly endless options.

Sanki's more affordable paint options
Sanki has a ton of paint options, recently many of the Bamboo shafts have shipped to the first wave of Sanki customers they take about 3 months to produce and run 1100 - 1400 depending on options. I've got a few Bamboo's on the way one of them a TSG exclusive black & white bamboo but to test these in more drivers I picked up a bunch of all white and metallic gray which retail at about 725ish. I actually like the simple white, but this metallic which looks kinda boring in shade really brightens up in sunlight and looks very nice. a couple of clients have also created some pretty cool gradient colored shafts with the blue grip/white butt/blue mid/tip sections with black heads that look cool. All the options make it a bit overwhelming but here are pics of the least expensive options to get a Sanki in the bag. They are outstanding shafts, 80T + 50T in each shaft, They are up there with the 7D's.

the most non-conforming JDM driver
Need more distance and want more distance are two different things. If you play only for fun HCR drivers are a blast as nearly everyone enjoys more distance.
-
the most non-conforming JDM driver
No HCR driver I know of creates 29yds gain or even near that. I would say 10yds at 100mph. I don't know about the physics or math of it but we hit many HCR drivers and the difference is noticeable in some and not others.
-
the most non-conforming JDM driver
Maxima ST feels the hottest to me at impact, lots of brands do not want to disclose the COR of their HCR drivers so they say over 0.83. And remember these things can break with 98-100+ mph swing speeds.

Docus DCU-701 Utility Wood
Have not hit this one yet, in hand looks like a deeper face than most UT's Lots of Docus posts this week, still got wedge & drivers to go.

PRGR 2015 Egg Driver Conforming
I don't think these need foam, they don't sound or feel bad at all, if you want more weight in the head hot melt should be fine as well.

Dream Machine
TourSpecGolfer posted a post in a topic in Out of Bounds: Lifestyle, Luxury, Autos, Hobbies, High Tech GearAlways dreamed of owning a P-51 since I was a child. Now I invision it all black with the rivets shaved down flush to the body and Audi style LED's embedded into the wing tips in a cool tasteful shape, air con and stereo system on the inside, modern technology yadda yadda... I just learned the company Titan Aircraft makes replica's using Honda motors! Now I just need a couple mill and some flying lessons to make this a reality ;) http://www.titanaircraft.com/t-51d.php

DOCUS DCF-701 Fairway Woods
More Docus here this time the FW and it's very good! Think Royal Collection or A-Grind but a little more shallow, it's flight is medium it's designed for good player, pretty compact the finish on the crown has a silver effect center while darker on all corners, feels really nice good club here.

DOCUS DCI-701 Forged CB Irons
If your in the market for a forged players cavity back with more forgiveness than usual here is a new option to consider, Introducing the new Docus DCI-701 CB. Featuring a sole wider than a blade with both heel and trailing edge relief the DCI701 also has extra heel relief to help the player not get caught up in the rough which may turn the club face over. Forged of SS400 steel and hand ground in Ichikawa Japan the overall shape and design of these irons present the golfer with a near blade like appearance yet with a deep enough cavity to keep it in play more than a muscle back would. Wider sole than a blade, heel relief grind + trail/leading edge relief. This top line is very thin and has a nice neck transition with next to no offset applied. It's cavity is pretty deep considering how compact it is at address. Very nice shape face forward, nice higher neck with a toe that extends well past the grooves.

Does Yonex soft step their irons?
Based on what your saying it looks to be. Not sure if this is for Yonex Japan or US.

Fourteen CT-112 vs Ryoma D1 V-Spec vs jBEAM Pro ZY-11
We have been getting a lot of requests for ZY-11's this week oddly. If you want spin reducing and a lower trajectory yes it's legit. I have just about everything to choose from and I play a ZY with 7D shaft. Backup is a Blackout 435 with 7D shaft and on the way is Maxima ST with 7D shaft.
