I have noticed that some sellers on ebay use the term "tour issue" on TM items and "tour van" on other items. I wonder if the different language is subtle but intentional to mask the real orgin of these clubs. Also, one seller has several TM "tour issue" 2FW rescue mids ( head only) with no reserve. Typically these heads winning bid for $100 to $130. However another seller has only one 2FW rescue mid ( head only) listed for a minimum $169 and buy it now of $189. Such a difference in pricing strategy makes me suspicious of the multiple lister, although both sellers enjoy very high feedback ratings. Are any of these true TM authorized releases or not? Are the afterhour production heads identical to the authorized versions or are they inferior? They certainly look like TM products so I wonder why TM hasn't taken legal action against the foundries, importers and sellers of the "unauthorized" products? Which sources for legitimate tour equipment can we trust, or are we better off trusting TM's TP assertion that "it is the same as the pros play"?

Stephen Ames is using the T60 Ignite and one closeup during the telecast reminded me of the NP 99 or 980 strong.
