Thanks Spoon! I've always known that Scotty's aren't the highest quality. Any suggestions on custom putter shops, etc.? Your help is greatly appreciated! :) Droopy

US versus Japanese putters
Hi all, As you can see on the left, I have a Scotty Cameron Newport Beach Tour. I can't imagine ever using anything else. That said, a few JDM putters have caught my eye recently and I wonder what I will experience with the new putter. Anyone with a SC Tour putters and JDM putters? Thanks, Droopy

Epon AF of Yururi Tour Seida wedges (56, 60 degree)
Thanks bogeydog and gocchin! I thought the Yururi's would be softer and the Epon's harder...but it's opposite. That makes my decision a lot easier, Epon it is! :) Any suggestions for shafts? Also, is the True Temper Wedge shaft = S400? S300? or completely different? Thanks, Steve

Epon AF of Yururi Tour Seida wedges (56, 60 degree)
Anyone? I'd like to order the Epon AF wedges OR Yururi Tour Seida wedges ASAP. Thanks in advance for your help! gocchin or TourSpecGolfer? You guys tried either wedge yet? Also, should probably mention that I currently play the Zodia KM Tour. Thanks, Droopy

Epon AF of Yururi Tour Seida wedges (56, 60 degree)
Probably should have posted this first. Has anyone had range time with the Epon AF of Yururi Tour Seida wedges? I'd like opinions on both... thanks in advance! Droopy

S300 -> Rifle Tourflighted 5.5 -> Nippon Pro GH
Hi guys, I currently play Rifle Tour Flighted 5.5 in my irons. I am planning on replacing my sand and lob wedges with either the Epon AF of Yururi Tour Seida wedges. The problem is my wedges have True Temper Wedge (sand) and S200 (lob) shafts in them. What's the best choice for me for a shaft upgrade? Should I go with Project X 5.5 shafts, Nippon Pro GH (weight?), or ????? Is it possible that the clubs will feel too light? TIA for your help! Thanks, Droopy

Utility/Hybrid to replace 3 iron
Thanks again for all the great suggestions and replies! Jackson, I may have to try the X-UT. Anyone have any idea of where I can get a G-Field Hybrid? Thanks, Droopy

Utility/Hybrid to replace 3 iron
Thanks to everyone who replied! I don't think I'm a good enough ball striker for the X-UT. I'd like to try the G-Field hybrid but I have no idea where to get them... I've heard that Adams Pro Series are very good too. How do they compare? Anyone try the Mizuno JPX hybrid? Thanks! Droopy

Utility/Hybrid to replace 3 iron
Hi all, What's the concensus for the top 3 or so hybrids/utility clubs to replace a 3 iron and possibly a 4 iron. Thanks in advance for your responses! And should I keep the stock shaft or upgrade? Droopy

9.5 Epon ZR 460 with Japan Ion Diamana Whiteboard
Jackson, You are almost EXACT on my crappy swing. :) I'm thinking I should probably skip this club because the shaft may be too stiff and plus, I need a 10.5...and a ton of lessons! Droopy PS Thanks Duffer and Forte for the tips too!

9.5 Epon ZR 460 with Japan Ion Diamana Whiteboard
This is my post to the fitting thread: Swing Speed (mph or m/s) - 90-95 mph Driver distance (yds) - 220 carry Tempo (Slow, Reg, Fast) - slow Transition (Smooth, Reg, or Quick) - Smooth/Regular Wrist lag (Minimal or Lots) - Average/low side Usual ball flight (Low, Medium, High) - Too High Desired Flight (Low, Medium, High) - Medium/High Desired Weight (60g, 70g, 80g range) - 60g (or whatever is appropriate for Epon 460) Bad shot (Right or Left) - Right Current shaft specs (if available) - Accra T60 M4 slightly tipped What are you looking for in a shaft? - Long straight distance with great carry + good roll Hopefully that helps you understand my swing better? What is the full insertion depth? Since it is untipped and inserted 1.5 inches, I assume it's probably plays a bit less stiff? Droopy

9.5 Epon ZR 460 with Japan Ion Diamana Whiteboard
I would definitely be interested in this combo. However, how stiff is it really? CPM? gocchin recommended a Whiteboard in R as Diamana's play fairly stiff. That's the only thing that worries me... Droopy

Shaft advice for new driver
Thanks Spoon and gocchin, I wonder if the weight difference will be that noticeable? From my current shaft, the W5BA is lighter and the W6BA is a few grams heavier... Gocchin, Your description of your game mirrors my own! :) The only reason you went with the W5 is because you prefer a lighter shaft? Thanks!

Shaft advice for new driver
Hi bogeydog, The below advice was meant for me or ajaykkr? I am considering the W6BA SR or W5BA SR? Any advice between these two? Thanks, Steve

Shaft advice for new driver
Thanks Duffer, That is also a shaft I'm considering. Please keep the suggestions coming; I really appreciate it! Thanks, Steve
-
Shaft advice for new driver
Thanks ajaykkr! I'm thinking the Roddio shaft would be good for me. Between WA and BA I'm still undecided. I think the Avix shaft maybe on the stiff side for me. Anyone else? Please let me know your suggestions and recommendations. Thanks, Steve

Shaft advice for new driver
Hi everybody, I emailed Chris late last night and he suggested that I post here in the fitting forum. I'm planning on purchasing an EPON 460 driver head and need some help with the shaft. I am... Height: 5’8” Handicap: 15.1 (but since I can't play that often, currently more like 25+) Driver SS: 90-100mph Tempo: Fairly smooth Normal Shot: high, slight fade Bad shot: Slice to the right OR coming over the top and pulling it way left Current Driver: TM R7 425 (neutral weighting) with an slightly tipped Accra T60 M4 45" My driver usually carries 220-240. I'm not the best ball striker and what saves me is that I have a pretty good short game. For example, when I was playing at least 5 times a week, I shot a 76 and only hit 1 GIR. I've been researching the forum and I'm not sure which shaft would work best for me. I've read so many good things about the Roddio shafts. On the stiffness designations: R - regular SR - stiff/regular (like a Firm flex) S - stiff Is this correct? Let me know if you need any more information. Can you guys give me some suggestions and recommendations? Thanks, Steve

Need a new driver, please help...
Hi all, I’m a long time lurker, first time poster. I’m currently playing a TM R7 425 with an Accra T60 M4 (stiff?). The shaft is only slightly tipped to make it softer. This was custom fit for me over a year ago and I hit it pretty well. My swing speed is not very fast and on good hits, I probably get 230-240 in carry. I’d like to purchase a Epon Technity 460 10.5 with either a: Roddio shaft (no idea which one) OR Axiv shaft OR Whatever other head and shaft combo anyone is willing to recommend. Please also help with shaft flex... Thanks in advance! Steve
