I think with some of the pricing on premium US Irons, drivers, etc, they really aren't any different from Japanese items. Look at the top of the line TM irons, where it's 1000+ for a set. R7 425 TPs are also retailing for the price of a japanese driver. And they don't even come with the same premium graphite shafts that japanese drivers come with. I think Japanese clubs aren't on the tour because the club manufacturers would really want US buyers to see clubs that they can buy (US domestic) rather than Japanese clubs. Pro golfers probably have easier access to US clubs too. I think that's crucial for them because if they ever need a replacement they can't risk having to wait for the club to get shipped from Japan. Now that's probably the case for golfers who don't have major contracts and can choose what they want to play. The ones that do, obviously have to play US clubs because of their contracts. Thanks what I think :tsg_smilie_wink:

Blade Golf x440 9.5(Proto x460) Accuflex Evolution Stif 45" in length. Club looks good other than some wear on the paint. See pics. I tried to take a picture (last one) that shows it, but as you can see, it's hard to see. Comes with original headcover. Asking 160 shipped and paypaled within CONUS. Please PM me with any questions. Thanks.

really.. honma is gone? bankrupt?

i thought z101 was a US only model. It was Tourstage's unsuccessful entry bid into the US. Although they were great irons!

So basically it's great for sweepers (in terms of finish upkeep) but terrible for diggers. Argh! Great info. The irons do look great. If the sole wear is going to cause the irons to rust, then I would be seriously worried.

This guy never sent me the clubs in another sale. Don't buy from him!

Darn. Sorry, but I wasn't watching it. PM me next time. Thanks for the efforts though.
