  1. Thanks for the information on steel shafted ViQ's, I really need the tip size for the graphite shafted ones, planning on re-shafting my wife's irons.
  2. Anyone know what the tip size is for the 2007 ViQ Forged Irons with graphite shafts? Thanks
  3. Putter is now for sale on e-bay. It is 33" and the black has been removed and now has a nice satin finish.
  4. ? Regarding the Gauge Design Tour Zero. I have the black Tour Zero with a blank sole and was wondering what type of finish it is and if Gauge Design chrome plates the putters before adding the black finish? Thanks!!
  5. Does anyone know if Gauge Design ever made a custom putter for Daisuke Matsuzaka? It's supposedly a Balde model in black with tungsten weights in the rear bumpers, the number 18 and DAISUKE stamped on the face?
  6. I recently bought a set of Z101's with NS Pros in them, I did not notice any loss in distance possibly gained some. The only thing that bothered me was the swingweight was too light I think D1, I bought alot of lead tape and the feel with these irons is incredible. Try putting your NS Pro's back in and add some weight to bring it up to either D3 or D4. :tourstage:
  7. I had the opportunity to try all three models of the futura on Friday. First impression the heel shafted mallet looked great, the center shafted one loooked good and the regular futura phantom looked great. The feel of the mallets to me felt a little hard compared to the old futura. I prefer the feel of the old carbon steel camerons. The futura phantom still has the same feel as the first issue futuras, I am not quite sure if it was just me but, the futura phantom still seemed to sit a little open when put down. If you are in the market for a new mallet putter and prefer the crisper feel of the new putters then the futura phantom mallet putter is the way to go. Finally, the weight of the putters all still seem to be a little light.
  8. A little something I found while surfing, How to Poop at Work We've all been there but don't like to admit it. We've all kicked back in our cubicles and suddenly felt something brew down below. As much as we try to convince ourselves otherwise, the WORK POOP is inevitable. For those who hate pooping at work, following is the 2001 Survival Guide for taking a dump at work. Memorize these definitions and pooping at work will become a pure pleasure. ESCAPEE. Definition: a fart that slips out while taking a leak at the urinal or forcing a poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of panic embarrassment. This is similar to the hot flash you receive when passing an unseen police car and speeding. If you release an escapee, do not acknowledge it. Pretend it did not happen. If you are standing next to the farter in the urinal, pretend you did not hear it. No one likes an escapee, it is uncomfortable for all involved. Making a joke or laughing makes both parties feel uneasy. JAILBREAK (Used in conjunction with ESCAPEE). Definition: When forcing poop, several farts slip out at a machine gun pace. This is usually a side effect of diarrhea or a hangover. If this should happen, do not panic. Remain in the stall until everyone has left the bathroom so to spare everyone the awkwardness of what just occurred. COURTESY FLUSH. Definition: The act of flushing the toilet the instant the nose cone of the poop log hits the water and the poop is whisked away to an undisclosed location. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME. WALK OF SHAME. Definition: Walking from the stall, to the sink, to the door after you have just stunk up the bathroom. This can be a very uncomfortable moment if someone walks in and busts you. As with all farts, it is best to pretend that the smell does not exist. Can be avoided with the use of the COURTESY FLUSH. OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPER. Definition: A colleague who poops at work and damn proud of it. You will often see an Out Of The Closet Pooper enter the bathroom with a newspaper or magazine under their arm. Always look around the office for the Out Of The Closet Pooper before entering the bathroom. THE POOPING FRIENDS NETWORK (PFN). Definition: A group of coworkers who band together to ensure emergency pooping goes off without incident. This group can help you to monitor the whereabouts of Out Of The Closet Poopers, and identify SAFE HAVENS. SAFE HAVENS. Definition: A seldom used bathroom somewhere in the building where you can least expect visitors. Try floors that are predominantly of the opposite sex. This will reduce the odds of a pooper of your sex entering the bathroom. TURD BURGLAR: Definition: A pooper who does not realize that you are in the stall and tries to force the door open. This is one of the most shocking and vulnerable moments that can occur when taking a dump at work. If this occurs, remain in the stall until the Turd Burglar leaves. This way you will avoid all uncomfortable eye contact. CAMO-COUGH. Definition: A phony cough that alerts all new entrants into the bathroom that you are in a stall. This can be used to cover-up a WATERMELON, or to alert potential Turd Burglars. Very effective when used in conjunction with an ASTAIRE. ASTAIRE. Definition: A subtle toe-tap that is used to alert potential Turd Burglars that you are occupying a stall. This will remove all doubt that the stall is occupied. If you hear an Astaire, leave the bathroom immediately so the pooper can poop in peace. WATERMELON. Definition: A turd that creates a loud splash when hitting the toilet water. This is also an embarrassing incident. If you feel a Watermelon coming on, create a diversion. See CAMO-COUGH. HAVANA OMELET. Definition: A load of diarrhea that creates a series of loud splashes in the toilet water. Often accompanied by an Escapee. Try using a Camo-Cough with an Astaire. UNCLE TED. Definition: A bathroom user who seems to linger around forever. Could spend extended lengths of time in front of the mirror or sitting on the pot. An Uncle Ted makes it difficult to relax while on the crapper, as you should always wait to drop your load when the bathroom is empty. This benefits you as well as the other bathroom attendees. FLY BY. Definition: The act of scouting out a bathroom before pooping. Walk in and check for other poopers. If there are others in the bathroom, leave and come back again. Be careful not to become a FREQUENT FLYER. People may become suspicious if they catch you constantly going into the bathroom

  10. I saw the trailer. I can't wait for this to be released. Probably will be the best of the Star Wars movies.
  11. It would be very interesting if this turned out to be true. Do you know which set of box toes it was?
  12. It has to do with Acushnet infinging on one or more of Bridgestones patents. :mad: BRIDGESTONE SPORTS INITIATES PATENT INFRINGEMENT ACTION AGAINST THE ACUSHNET COMPANY Titleist’s Leading Golf Balls Allegedly Infringe Upon Several Bridgestone-owned U.S. Patents Covington, GA, – On March 7, 2005, Bridgestone Sports Co., Ltd., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Bridgestone Golf, Inc., filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Acushnet Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. Bridgestone Sports is currently the leading golf ball manufacturer in Japan with a 40% share of that market, and Acushnet remains the leader in the U.S. golf ball market. In the complaint, Bridgestone Sports charges Acushnet with willful infringement of ten United States patents from Bridgestone Sports’ extensive patent portfolio covering multi-piece solid core golf ball technology. Among the Acushnet balls charged with infringement are: Titleist® Pro V1TM, the Titleist® Pro V1xTM, the Titleist® NXTTM, Titleist® NXT Tour, the Titleist® DT SoLo, and the Pinnacle® ExceptionTM golf balls. Bridgestone Sports is seeking an injunction against Acushnet from infringing upon the company’s patents and for unspecified compensation for damages that have occurred as a result of past infringement. In addition, Bridgestone Sports seeks a declaratory judgment of non-infringement with respect to four United States patents owned by Acushnet. “During the course of several months of negotiations with Acushnet, we attempted to settle this dispute; however, when negotiations failed, Acushnet left us with no other course of action, but to file suit,” said Mr. Kawano, President, Bridgestone Sports Co., Ltd. “We remain hopeful that this matter can be settled, but in the meantime, we must protect our intellectual property rights. We will do so passionately and we are committed to see this matter to the end, in order to properly remedy the infringement.” Bridgestone Sports, together with its U.S. subsidiary, Bridgestone Golf, Inc., located in Covington, Georgia, develops, manufactures and sells premium golf products, including Bridgestone GolfTM, Precept® and TourStage® golf balls. Bridgestone is represented on a world stage by a number of internationally famed golfers including, Stuart Appleby, Shigeki Maruyama and Nick Price. Bridgestone Golf, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bridgestone Sports Co. Ltd., whose headquarters are in Tokyo. For more information visit http://www.bridgestonegolf.com.
