  1. I used to have the P, 52/58 or 51/57 wedge combo but now changed to a 4 wedge set up. My Legacy P is 44 so decided to use the stock A which is 49*. Now add a 54* low bounce and a 58* with higher bounce. The 54* low bounce would give me clean contact on tight lies on approach yet high enough loft for drop and stop shots.
  2. Oh, I swing like that ..... on regular speed and not slow mo
  3. The Raw would definitely rust easier than the Tour but if you are not living in a high humidity area (80%+), the raw should be okay if you clean it after each round and particularly after playing in the rain. I have the raw that is 6 years old and it is still relatively okay.

    Is it just me or other feels the same that tipping a driver shaft is pretty much a north America thing, particular the US. I read from people posting on WRX that they would regularly tip a new driver shaft 1 inch or more without even trying it. I would assume that the shaft manufacturers would design a shaft to play with certain characteristic and see no reason to change it until proven unsatisfactory. I have yet come across a fitter that would recommend tipping a premium shaft the first time out.
  5. Did you say you use the Bridgestone Science Eye as you launch monitor?
  6. The 130 mph SS is as fast or faster than Tiger.
  7. For the higher handicapper, I think the new Yamaha D is a safer bet. I am now playing up to 15 and couldn't be happier with the forgiveness of Yamaha 19*. As a matter of fact, the forgiveness of all the D line The twin rails on the Yamaha seem also more pronoun than the RC.

    As the Chinese would say, this is a waste of gas. For the rest of us, it is the wider sole and pocket cavity with tungsten insert over the one piece stamp cavity and over mult stamp blade for forgiveness. Low handicapper doesn't seem to understand there is a larger golf population/universe out there that are playing to mid to high teens instead playing thosw less forgiving clubs for its workability and feel. We are not pro and do not pretend to be. I would gladly give up some feel for forgiveness. For me now its my Callaway Legacy forged (2 to 3 piece) over my previous Miura cb201 over my even older Mizuno T Zoid Pro.
  9. C, as TSGer said, you should really try the Yoichi by Nikka out of Hokkaido (not sure that Suntory/Yamasaki is really out of Hokkaido). Just bought a bottle of the limited 1990 Yoichi as a collection and would be interested to see whether this vintage would win anything later this year. Nikka also produces the Miyagikyo single malt from their Sendai distillery. Unfortunately I don't know whether that distillery would be producing anything soon. Also bought a few bottles of 15 year old single malt for keep sake.
  10. Just email T or look in the BST section under spring inventory sale.
  11. Frank, get the Quadra inventory sale before its gone. Regular price for that many shafts would be much higher. I was going to steal them but no head to use it on and just don't want to fool around with my Legacy forged and T's Roddio/OnOff combo.
  12. I think that would probably apply to 80% of the people here.
  13. Frank, Just to confuse you more, I would suggest taking a looking at Roddio I-6 or I-8 iron shafts over the Tour AD. GD 65 or 75 just doesn't have the same feel as my set of I-6. At the same time, I am partial to Quadra FE over Crazy (longest yard), at least on driver shaft.
  14. I guess my question was what if I have multiple shafts for one single head? Would I be needing a sleeve for each shaft as with most recent TMs that you can swap on the go?
  15. Would extra sleeves be available for purchase separately besides the one that comes with the driver package?
  16. You have to look beyond the bling and judge for yourself about the playability of each model. The Beres line such as 8 and 9 series are quite 'quiet' and very decent clubs.
  17. The 901 looks exactly like my Geotech EK but with badge.
  18. Now, I think TSG should consider giving senior discount just like movie tickets, bus and subway fares.
  19. Plagiarizing? Epon should give me a fee for promoting the brand and the pooch.
  20. The V spec is square face while most of my other 10* or 10.5* drivers are 0.5* closed. I did not have any slicing or fading problem with it at all but my rpm is stock R flex so the flight and distance is just normal I guess (no idea about spin). I intend to reshaft it with a spare Griffin SR and see whether I can get a few more yards out of it.
  21. I also picked up a very good condition rpm v driver from a fellow member here. While it is not my main gamer, the rpm is good to be a standby driver for my spare bag. It is almost Epon ZR460 feel on impact.
  22. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. I am very happy with the D UT since it is only a month new.
  23. C, I am playing the new D UT 19 and it is that good. No need to get it reshaft as the stock is just about perfect for it as long as you find the right flex. I am done with all these 'reshafting' unless the club is totally unplayable.
  24. The English came much later. The original Japanese version became the top 40. Only found out much later that it was a very sad song.
  25. Now C, that song was my time. We were all listening and singing it then without knowing what the words meant.
