  1. Phillip. Mizuno, not Titleist is his first gig. I agree with everything else.
  2. Done. Like they listen to me anyway! LOL! I hope they end up looking better also. This is why I stick with my old T.P. Mills! Always does the job. I've been told that's it sweet. I won't see the puters until next week. I'll give you guys a heads up when I get them.
  3. I wish I could have given up this info last week, but mumm was the word. Also, your looking at samples awaiting approval.
  4. Driver: PRGR or Works FW: Sonartec / Royal Collection Ut: Kasco Irons: Mizuno, PRGR, or Works Wedges: Mizuno Putter: T.P. Mills by "the T.P. Mills"
  5. You should PM Joe Kwok! He's got all the answers on TC shafts.
  6. Hello Michael Jackson!
  7. 1. 1999 Ford Expedtion 2. 1995 Ford Explorer 3. 1968 Kaiser Wagoneer 4. 1988 Merkur Scorpio What a boring stable.
  8. PRGR makes the best looking irons on the market at this point. What a club! It's nice to see a notch-back like the old Justin Leonard Hogan irons from thew nineties. I really glad these guys aren't in the US market. Would make my life difficult.
  9. Thanks Taipanli. Unfortunatley, Mizuno USA does not offer this service. You can order thru Chris though. He is probably one of the only people in the US that I would trust. He's had pleanty of experience working with Mizuno Japan. I'm not even allowed to own a set.
  10. Norcross is Mizuno USA headquartes in the states.
  11. One factory. Sorry about that. Mizuno USA runs their own operation. Japan is the umbrella. US have final say about the US market. It's kind of confusing: global business practices.
  12. Price is not a problem. I don't know about forever. Maybe some PRGR's. I'll let you know. Thanks.
  13. I hear you. As far as who decides what comes to the US. Mizuno Japan and Mizuno USA are two different companys. Miz US decides what comes here, regardless of what's being offered in Japan. I also think the MP27's would have been a hit in the US.
  14. Thanks for clearing that up Taipanli. I agree with you 100%. It makes my job easier. Piece of mind!
  15. Thanks. How about a price. Also, does He offer a narrower topline?
  16. This is great! I hope we can continue this even further. By the way, IMO, Chris is right. PRGR does have the best quality out there(don't tell my boss). It's a shame that they pulled out of the US market.

    The Mizuno MX-500 is a great driver if you don't mind a little draw bias.
  18. Sorry about the confusion. All Mizuno irons(for all world markets) are forged in Japan. The final chroming and polishing are done in China. This does not include the custom grind / logo'd irons(these are 100% Japanese). We get what everyone else gets. I just think that the price should reflect the the lower standards being used now. JMO
  19. I glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. By the way, all Mizzy's are forged in Japan, but "They" are finished in China. I just found this out by mistake. They don't talk about this at the company picnic! And why does Mizuno charge more for the same product in Japan?! That's where it's made. Also, clubs made in Japan are of higher quality than those made anywhere else. Higher standards.

    Any info on these clubs. They look great. Can I order these thru Chris?
  21. Your right, but, Most of these companies don't spend alot on advertisment. At least not compared to the US companies. I can't believe the prices for Muira irons. Even the company I work for is starting to finish their clubs outside of Japan. I think Scracth Golf has the right idea. Total custom. Makes me want to quit the company I work for. Just a thought! Any other opinions?
  22. If it looks like its worth it, then it is. It's all about you!
  23. It is without a doubt that the japanese manu. design and produce some of the finest equipment in the world. Why is it that company increasingly cut corners, but still charge top-rate prices? Examples are as follows without naming names: Hosels that are welded on the clubhead instead of being forged from one piece. Finishing done outside of Japan. Clubs completely manufactured outside of Japan, etc... Even the company I work for is guilty of some of these offences.
