  1. I have a 652 Tour Spec pullout available (new graphics). Stiff flex, 44" tip to grip butt end (GP Tour Velvet), 1.25" prep - pulled from Cleveland Launcher 400. $175 shipped to UK. Email [email protected] if interested. bp
  2. Anybody have one or more?
  3. Club in excellent condition. Used one round, not for me. I prefer the iron hybrid style heads, like the Hogan. IROD shaft plays on the firm side. Heacover included. $125 shipped for this club. bp
  4. Club is in excellent condition. I'm going with the 380cc head in a higher loft. 10*, .5 closed head, Vista Pro 70 stiff, 260cpm @ 45", new Golf Pride Dual Durometer Decade grip (nice match with Nak red/black scheme), headcover included. Because I'm replacing this, I can sell outright or trade. Trades of interest are: * KZG Gemini 10.5* or higher * Scotty Cameron Stainless Steel Newport 2.5 putter * 983E 10.5* or higher Selling price is firm at $275 (new is $350 or higher). Pics available upon request if interested.
  5. I currently play the Hogan CFT in 21* and 24*. I dropped the 19* in order to try the Nakashima R2 19* Utility. It should arrive tomorrow. I already know that I hit the CFT consistently, but did not try it from any difficult lies. I'll post a short review of the Nak's playability by Saturday. bp
  6. dadriver, The draw and hook are not in my bag of swings. I normally play it straight to fade. So this is extremely unusual. I didn't have this problem with the 652 in a previous club. So, my thought is that this shaft is too soft for my swing.
  7. I recently reshafted my beloved Cleveland Launcher 400 with a Speeder 652 Tour Spec (nice, new graphics). I have a 93-95mph SS. I play anywhere from an R to S, depending on the weight/torque of a shaft. Well, I hit the stock stiff Launcher shaft exceptionally well and long. But, I had an opportunity to get the 652TS for a great price. I played the US 652 before with success. I take this club to the range this morning, and out of 50+ balls, I hit only 1 straight. The other shots were high hooks. I swapped out my other drivers to see if it was my swing, and it wasn't. Could this shaft be too soft, or too much torque? If it is too soft, how much should a tip? Or with that help at all? HELP!!! :cry:
  8. It appears this shaft has been tipped 2". This is an S-flex. What would this flex out at with the 2" tipping?
  9. I've had a pullout Speeder 869 for over a season that hasn't been used (successfully). The original owner tipped the shaft and added a butt extension to use it in a 3W or 5W. I don't recall exactly, and can't remember who I purchased it from. Can any experts tell me how I can determine how much was tip trimmed, or butt trimmed for that matter? How can I measure this? I'd hate to leave such a shaft in my storage with no real use. bp

    Ari, what do you expect the turnaround from order to delivery to be? Can the classic blade be compared to anything on the market now, size-wise? Is it similar to, or smaller than the TA-1 blade? Also, will you be limited to 3-PW sets only? Mixed sets okay? Thanks. bp

    Can anyone compare these two irons? I'm getting an itch for something Tourstage again, and the MR-23's look interesting.
  12. I played and Alpha Reaction 400cc driver off and on last season. I swapped it out between my 983K. After losing the desire to force the 983K to work for me, the AR became the driver of choice. The build quality, fit and finish are all equally as good or better than KZG (whose products I also own). I recently add the C830.2 to my bag. Early range reports are that it carries longer than my previous drivers and feels very good. If the head size were alittle smaller on the 3W, I'd definitely put it in the bag as well. It's worth a consideration for you customers, particularly those that are aware that quality components can out perform OEMs.
