  1. Try Vista tour 60 or if you willing to spend...you can try 671 or fit on six. Joe Thanks FAQ! :)
  2. The one Tourspecgolfer pointing is Dark metalic blue in real, It's just on the website looks a little like black due to improper lighting adjustment when they took that picture. 60 grams is for the X flex, 56 is for the A flex.
  3. He is probably talking about this one. http://www.tourspecgolf.com/modules.php?na...&t=4405&start=0 That is not a tour only shaft! Come on!

    Plus you are one of my best friend and customer that is easy to understand what my brain are thinking. pleasure is all mine! :) Joe
  6. Jinjuwooa, I may not be the authority on blueprinting, but my understanding is that clubheads are adjusted so that they weigh, feel, and play consistently from iron to iron. When shaft lengths, grips, and heads are completed as a finished product a blueprinted PW should feel similar in characteristics as would a 3 iron. I am sure if you had more questions or for an authority on the subject you could ask Joe, one of the nicest guys in the business. His screen name is Joey3108. First! Hi Duke ! How are you? Hope things goes well w/ you. To add to what you are mentioning on my blueprinting process, I should add wooden dowel, neutral bend point spine possition, grip weight, hosel depth, loft and lie angle adjustment and a lot of phone conversation. Please add if i forgot something. :) BTW, THanks for a nice gesture . It's always nice to hear it from a nice guy like you. Joe
  7. Depending on your swing speed. The faster your swing speed is the lower the angle it become. 11*-13* is base on 100MPH +/-, however if the swing and shaft combo cause you to baloon the ball, those 11-13 isn't gonna do you any good also. So spin rate comes into important consideration also here. Too low is hard to hit but yet too much will cause balooning action. Matching it correctly w/ your ability to swing the club is a must here. Most people are overrated them self IMO. Knowing how you play on the course is the best fitting, combine w/ the statistic from a good launch monitor + clubmaker's knowledge on every products he carry or sale and off course his good motivation of his sale too. Good luck! joe

    That is a good combo if you are looking to get the ball hit higher and slightly heavier feel for a FW. Joe

    MY pleasure guys! :) About the spec of the club ( just like scratch's question ), Manufacturer tested it and checked it what's on it. They go base on what they got when they tested it, however playing carracter is not always reflect 100% on the spec. Because of that, clubmakers has to undertsand the exact playing carracter of every shafts they carry in their shop. The better he judge the shafts, the higher his success rate also in fitting customers. That is why I don't carry every brand out there, It will takes so much time and money for to test everything and I don't think my brain is good enough to store them. Just Only Fujikura shafts alone kind of tough already. So I decided top 5-6 most popular brand only that i can carry. Cheers! joe

    The shafts on top of my head now are 553, 569, 652, 660, and PRO3. But any of these shafts won't help you if never check your swing first. Oh , one more thing, When you hit the heavier and shorter shaft you gets more consistent, It's normal case for a hitter. They get more feel out of heavier shaft. No doubt about it. cheers, joe

    I would love to help you here as much as possible but from a limited experience w/ Fushion, I don't have an idea how much different the trajectory of those 2 clubs. So I will try to help base on what you got only here. What is your launch angle now? and How much higher you need? And what is your spin rate is ?I will try to reply it one by one from the quote on your post here. IMHGO, It shows here that the issue here is more on loft of the club not on the shaft. Just my 2 cents! Hope that help your decision, but if are looking to increase your trajectory, Just like Robbie said " tour release" should do the trick. Good luck! Joe Kwok

    :D I kept on telling my self that, I'm a lucky guy! I have a beautiful wife and a beautiful golf club or should i say , i have a beautiful golf club and a beautiful wife. I know how you feel about LH things, I have a good friend have the same problem. However, I'm glad that he is LH, because if it is not...He would've been a much worst of a HO than what it is now. joe

    ...j - is that picture your own 'intellectual property'? i would hate for the 'lawyers' to get involved...as an aside - the 'tour' plastic wrap was a nice touch... e ;) Whoa ha ha ha ha! Very funny! :lol: Please bro! I've trying to hold my self not to say or add anything on that. I'm sure you remember Our emails exchange re: fibber's email to me and to my customers, I still have it some where in my other PC. I intend to keep my promise not to expose them. I got nothing in my pocket, so sue me! BTW, The reason i bought this set is the tour glue. :wink: cheers!

    Allow me to tease you guys w/ my new toy. :P :lol: Joe Kwok
  20. Correct! IMO, If you want to play it shorter ( 1/2" or more ) , You have to adjust the weight internally...Unless when you open it up it has no weight adjustment by the tip. Good luck! Joe
  21. THere was one of my post on the other forums regarding taking the rat glue out from inside the head to bring the total weight down so you'll be able to reshaft it w/ a longer shaft to get the right swing weight. However, you must understand that we don't know how much rat glue inside. If you are lucky, then you should have no problem. Do some search on this post or call me. My take on the shim: IMO, the best is a aluminium shim that i get from hardware store, which is exacly the thickness of the different (335" to 350"). From my experiences IMO, The least/thinner epoxy between the shaft and hosel wall, the better and stronger and truer spec too. If any body need more info to discuss your problem on your club, You can email me and i'll give you my # to call and discuss it on the phone effectively. Please understand that if I'm busy at that moment, i'll have to make you call me back or i'll call you back. Regards, Joe Kwok

    IMHGO, No one can give you the exact # here, so you might want to get yourself a frequency machine if you really want to match it "perfectly" w/ you driver or go to a really good and experience club maker that can promise you he will get it on the spot. IMO "Feel" wise comparing 75 to 85grams... This is a tough one to judge. Good luck! Joe Kwok
  23. I got this spec sheet from their web site. Material/manufacturing method: Special heat treatment stainless steel/casting Count/loft: 3W (13°,14°) + 4W (15°) Count/loft:4W (16°) - 4W (17°) Count/loft:+ 5W (18°) 5W (19°) Count/loft:- 5W (20°) Lie angle: 57.5 MARU (3W) Head cubic measure: 165cm3 (3W) Face high: 34mm (3W) Height of gravitational center: 21mm (3W) Center of gravity depth: 29.5mm (3W) Center of gravity distance: 32mm (3W) Center of gravity angle: 19° (3W) Face angle: 0° (3W)
  24. now that you say it... the sound of my K changed when I went to the pro lite... Joe: did you go full insert or did you blind bore it a bit? if you didn't fully insert it . that could seriously affect the resonance of the headShaft is untipped and inserted 1.75 inches. I don't think so, unless there is a hollow spot. Even that I would hardly believe it. The hard proof is when you change from graphite to a steel shaft, this will definitely louder. Joe
  25. No No, Not on this head. I didn't add weight inside the head at all, In fact I remebered that i only add only a bit of lead plug by the tip. And I'm sure this will not cause the sound ata ll. 3 things on top of my head that might cause this, 1. Some heads are just slighly different, most like is a good sign of a hot face. 2. Yes, Most of the time when you reshaft w/ different shaft will change the sound. Epsecially if you went to a better tighter quality shafts. This is most likely the cause! 3. Hope this is not the one! A cracked face. Some cases doesn't effect the distance but definitely the sound. Depending where it crack. I rarely fond an E w/ a cracked face, I saw some on D. Get a quater and tap it around the head ( face and sole ), if there is a crack spot, it will gives a different sound. Good luck! Joe
