  1. Hopefully get to swing them this weekend.
  2. If you have a desire to sell the shaft lmk.
  3. Yes I was referring to the DGL - 115S model.
  4. Always wanted to try Quadra however the information I found said they are very stiff and harder to get up.
  5. I understand however because I bought these at a nice price from Tae, I can't pass up the opportunity. If they don't fit my profile I will let them go to another lucky TSGr at a great price also. The Aerotechs haven't left my radar.
  6. Ok I was going to use the Aerotech shafts, but these are going in first. Bangvoo Premium stiff flex by Fujikura and Muziik. To my knowledge, only one other TSGr has ever hit them. Wish me luck. Gocchin's shaft Bible says flex similar to 1050s, profile like Modus3. Next week should be exciting.
  7. Ok round two at the range. Observations all stand however I feel stronger about the accuracy and the forgiveness. I live near a range called Top Golf which is a high tech range that has imbedded target at specific distance. The balls have rfid chips and can be read where they enter the targets. Time after time I was able to hit the targets. Distance was insanely accurate. Baby draws. Forgiveness is damn good. Has anyone else received theirs?
  8. Tell about this Quadra shaft.
  9. Give the Aerotechs a try. Like to hear about them.
  10. I have a 7 iron of the IS series. Petty nice. The Recoils are an updated version with different weights available. Price went way up also.
  11. No experience with the personals however Yamaha has always been more crisp than Epons. I do find Yamaha responds well to shaft changes.
  12. I had a set just like these. Fun fun fun.
  13. The Recoil Tour and Prototypes are new. Already tried the IS980T. The Recoils are expensive at approximately $115 reach.
  14. Thinking modus 3 or graphite. However have the Bangvoo shaft coming. May experiment with Aerotech or new UST Mamiya Tour 95s. Bangvoo first and if that doesn't work, next.
  15. First thoughts are excellent. Somehow Yamaha has retained the shape of the soles and topline view that I love. In fact, they have been able to stay consistent over the past few years. I have not compared them side by side with the others however have played enough that these don't appear foreign. I like the PW. Not much different to me than the others. Finish is a nice satin. On close examination they must have altered weight by varying the bulge of the back. There is some curvature to it. View from the toe looks like previous years. If you are a fan of the Yamaha shape, you will like these. Keep in mind these have the stock S200 shafts that I hate. I will be changing them soon. Also I need the lie and length adjusted. So these results can only get better. First thought is these are precision instruments. Almost a surgical aura about them. Awesome. Make me feel accurate. Feel - Crisp Epon feel. Typical of all the Yamaha tour irons. I hit balls all over the face. Toe shots are felt however not harshly. Center and heel are nice and crisp. Positive with no sloppyness. Feedback - You can tell exactly where you have hit the face. Distance - Hard to say since I don't have my go to shafts installed. Forgiveness - Very good. Up to cavity backs. Maybe. Better than other blades I have hit. Need more time. Performance - As expected. Surgical. Pick your spot, swing well and they are there. Spin control excellent. Hard too describe but damn accurate. Overall - Damn good, likely great. Need to hit in grass with my shafts. Need to get the lie and length adjusted. I expect great things here. I really enjoyed them. Something to their pin point accuracy here. Need some time to think of how to describe. Get them.
  16. Ok I received mine today. Will hit then tomorrow. First thoughts are excellent. Somehow Yamaha has retained the shape of the soles and topline view that I love.

  17. Guys, Don't be afraid of the 9 degree. These don't launch really low.
  18. Don't have any now but same condition. If not when you get it, send it back.
  19. Stew, Are these the tour or non tour heads?
