$1,200 shipped EMS, insured, Paypal'd including one of the putters. Email me for pics.

This is my back-up fairway wood shafted with a TS TXD-65 stiff. Condition is 8 and all specs are stock. The TXD-65 is an excellent shaft and basically a rebranded GD YS6.5. I have this fairway wood in my bag shafted with a GD Tour AD M-75 stiff which I prefer because it hits a lower ball. US$200 shipped EMS 3-5 day and Paypal'd.

bump :whistle:

Didn't like the feel and it added no distance. Perhaps I had the wrong specs. The W70 is also a great shaft.

Nice solid feel. Good distance. However I believe non-conforming drivers are more erratic and don't provide the consistency. Nonetheless, it was a very good driver to me. The AXIV shaft did absolutely nothing for me so I've ordered my W505 with a Diamana which I tried out and liked. JUst for a change from the Tour ADs.

Give the Srixon W505 a thought. Haven't hit a Srixon club I didn't like and have a conforming W505 on the way... :love:

Indeed! :cool: But I should spend more time looking at my swing than at my clubs! :sad:

The OnOFFs are supposed to be loud. However, the X-Drive 405 was fine - sound was not muted but not loud in any sense.

Check out the OnOFF drivers. Apparently highest COR on the (Japanese) market at 0.89... They look great and I would have bought one if they had a conforming model. http://www.daiwaseiko.co.jp/onoff/index.html

Even though my price is already reasonable, I will give an added incentive by offering the choice of a Never Compromise Milled #4 putter or a Odyssey White Steel 5 - both like new - as a bonus. I'm not selling these X-Blade 2s because of the clubs but rather because of my game being in shambles and I'm fed up for a while. If there are no bites, i'll just leave them in the closet until I fix whatever's messed up with my swing! :love:

Selling a set of X-Blades 2 shafted with NS Pro M266V stiff shafts - 3-PW. Played one round and in pristine condition. $1,300 shipped EMS 3-5 days to continental US and Paypal'd. These blades are better than the previous model with a much nicer feel to them. The M266V shafts are rare and only offered on high end TS irons - equivalent to the NS Pro 1050s but these are a limited edition. If interested, best to email me rather than PM - [email protected] Didier

I believe the only differences are the 2 Tungsten weights and the face insert.

Great to see the i404s will be staying - very surprised not to have come across anyone else playing them. I wasn't lying in the Ebay listing when I said they're probably one of the very best forged CBs ever made. Considering how fast TM introduce new products, I'd say sell the TPs while they're still current. The MR-23s will hold their value better imo.

Check out some of the new putters. Lot's of interesting models. I'm sure Chris will fill us in once he returns from wherever he is. http://www.gaugedesign.co.jp/Products/Prd_PT.html I particularly like the M2 AL+ and the Tubu Black. :cool:

Previous NS Pro shafts have indeed played a little weaker than comparable DG or Rifle shafts but the 1150s play true to flex.

I have played both. 1050 stiff just hit too high for me but the 1150 stiff are perfect. If you like the feel and your ball flight is fine, stick with the 1050s and hard step. If you want to lower your ball flight and want a more "solid" (yet still soft) feeling shaft, go with the soft-stepped 1150s. Although mine are/were in different heads, I actually hit a club longer with the 1150s than with the 1050s. Ordering a new set of Srixon i505s w/ 1150s cuz i absoutely love the shaft. Just sold my i404s and have been playing my Gold's Factory blades with the 1050s and i just hit it way too high.

With Maru having avoided the initial X-Blades, these ones must also perform better and not just be cosmetically enhanced. Nice :cool:

I'm not crazy about the Eldik but this one's a beauty :love:

Sure. It's a smooth and tight shaft much like the Graphite Design Tour ADs. Just get the right flex for your swing speed.

US Steelhead Plus. Crap Cally shaft :finger:

Please, Give me a break!!! You think current diamana isn't for hard hitters? Then how come Tiger is using this exact shaft for his driver and FW. :cool:

I have a friend who plays Giga irons. I've also seen the woods in shops. Overall they look distinctly inferior to me when compared with Honma or S-Yard. The irons are chunky monkeys like Cally BB irons and the woods are pretty plain. If your father wants to try something new perhaps look into XXIO, Katana, OnOFF, or a number of other brands I'd put ahead of Honma, S-Yard or Giga. My $.02 :smile1:

38.25" as per my post above.

Haven't hit them but I would assume it's high pitched - could be wrong. Don't know about spin either, best to ask Chris. List price is Yen77,000.....in comparison list price on the Srixon W505 is Yen68,250...not cheap! :money: Just been told they are indeed damn loud :surprize:
