  1. Just had mine reshafted. I believe it's .355
  2. Guage Japan wedge set consisting of a 52* AW and a 58* SW. Limited edition wedge set comes in a special 4th Anniversary box - 1000 sets total worldwide. Shafted with Dynamic Gold S200. Played with one round, maybe 3 shots each wedge, mint condition. Beautiful set of limited Gauge wedges - be one of the first to have these in your bag or for display. Asking $249 + shipping and Paypal fees. Please email me if interested: [email protected] :cool:
  3. Goes to show that my raving about GD shafts isn't something I pulled out of my a**! :love:
  4. Untipped M75 does produce a higher ball flight. My M75 is installled in a F-ST+ tipped 1/2 inch.
  5. Indeed you don't see the OEMs offering Fuji options anymore. The new king of shafts is definitely Graphite Design. Having played a few of each brand, I would definitely rank the GD shafts higher in performance than the Fujis. I have played the W70, M65, M75 and I65 and in spite of varying torque and cpm ratings, all the GD shafts are lively yet tight. What else would you look for in a shaft? The only Fuji I'd be curious to try at this point is the 764 but only if I come across someone playing one - not interested in buying it.
  6. I would much rather pay US prices for my equipment but since I only buy the best, I have to buy Japanese equipment and shove the prices up my a**! :surprize: Stating that Japanese equipment is superior comes from years of buying truckloads of clubs from the US and Japan. There is no comparison in quality. Simply said, I have always found the Japanese manufactured irons to be more consistent - lofts, swing weights, distances etc. On closer inspection, you will notice the attention to detail - just look at Japanese club mfr. websites. They give you the full specs and even denote the weight tolerances for the clubheads. Face angle, swing weights, head weights etc. etc. it's all there. Keep in mind that we are discussing retail equipment available to anyone and not "Tour" equipment which should adhere to exacting standards as demanded by the pros. As for US craftsmanship, I can't tell you how many people in HK make a great living from sourcing A-Z for US wholesalers and retailers. IMHO, you cannot put USA and craftsmanship in the same context. As soon as someone seeks out quality/expensive product, where do they turn to? For cars it's Germany and Italy - for jewellery and luxury goods it's France and Italy - for electronics it's Japan (mostly) - for boats/yachts it's Italy, the UK, and other European boat yards - for watches it's Switzerland and Germany, and on and on. Let me nevertheless state that I'm a MAC addict and that's a real USA brand (even though most of the components are made in Asia as well). Still, although Dell and HP are still No.1 and 2 in terms of sales volume, people immediately turn to PCs like the SONY VAIO when money is no object and they want the best. (I'm generalizing a little but that's the trend). Before I get hell from anyone, I want to say that I'm a Red Sox and Patriots fan and mostly follow US sports! :cool: They don't make rivalries like the Red Sox vs. Yankees anywhere but in the good old US of A!!! :laugh:
  7. Oh yeah! The ultimate TSG pin-up babe! :-)
  8. And your point is? :laugh:

  15. Have a new Black Studio Design Cameron headcover for sale. $150 shipped and Paypaled. Email if interested: [email protected]
  16. Man! At least give us some idea of the essential basis of his theories!
  17. No I'm not sure. I also understand Scotty will not be stamping them Circle T anymore. As to the putter's origin, it would have helped if the initials L.D. had been stamped on it. This is not a one of a kind handstamped so I don't think it's worth $2K. Haven't checked market prices lately but unless the market has shot up in the last 12 months, a nice handstamped would fetch $1.5k at most. Still, don't take anyone's word for it (especially not mine!) so you should email Bill Vogeney at www.vogeygolf.com and ask him.
  18. I doubt anywhere close to $2K. Check out www.tablerock.com for a similar model then divide their list price by 2 for the true value...obviously a very rough guide.
  19. Can you take a clean pic of the i404 top profile please? Heck while your at it, why dont you do a WITB for us :laugh: Let's wait for my Gauge wedges, Gauge Mega, and for me to find someone capable of installing the shafts I have sitting around :cool:
  20. To be honest, after you post was the first time I ever even looked at her face.. HAHAHAH.... You're right, she needs some work, but if you brown bag her she's an '8' Chris I'd kick her out of my 4some... :spit:
  21. I'd love to try a set of MP32s with the exact same profile as my i404s. Is that possible??
  22. What's wrong with you guys?? She's nasty! Just cuz she's got a couple of silicone bags you get excited! :-)
  23. ROFLMAO
