  1. The thing to watch out for in graphite such as Machline or Axiv, the heavier of the shaft, even in the same flex would also play or feel stiffer. Your Machline 501 is probably in the mid 50g while your Axiv might be the heavier mid 70 g ones while both are R or S flex. One must choose the weight class carefully or be disappointed.
  2. So where are you going to put your Lambo? Good Luck and looking forward to see the progress and perhaps this is something I could do in my retirement (next year?)

    If I were 20 years younger and got rid of all my irons, this is the set I want.
  4. ha ha, I still have a set of Speeder 603 and AXIV 558M that I need to find a good set of heads or sell them and try Machline instead. Unfortunately they are all good and the only way to test any shaft is to get identical heads.
  5. If the Machline wood shaft is any indication, their iron shafts would be as good as any of the bigger name shafts such as Fuji and DG. I have the 5350 proto and 7060 and think they are great performers and of course value.
  6. Is the Diamana Blue 53 US spec? TheJdm Blue Flower Band Ion starts with S63. At the same time, you should be looking at 5x07 S (instead of R) to be compatible with GD GT 55 S. All thes JDM are great shaft and give you control but what other characteristic are you looking for ie. low spin , launch.

  8. There is no fog in Thailand or at least in Bangkok.
  9. wow scary science fiction movie stuff like magic mushoom appearing and growing in front of your eyes.
  10. T Dont put the head cover on immediately on after the round or when the club is still damp. This is the easiest way to get rust especially those expensive wedges.
  11. wow you mean I can actually have 13 driver shaft in one bag and I have the Blue and Green Graphite Design cord grips to match too ? well I am sure T would eventually get them.
  12. For most models that is probably true if you are a decent ball striker but I think the passing point could be his attempt to create a slightly more forgiving design with stronger loft. I am a 14 hdcp and absolutely love my CB201 with nspro 850.
  13. In the October issue of Golf Classic, Katayama's Nike irons seem to be a Graphite Design Prototype shaft in black (with a big G logo.) It is in X flex and SW of D1.5.
  14. What are the differences bwteen the CB 202 vs. CB201?
  15. Do not expect performance of a $5,000 Vector from a $120 portable machine. Look at it as cool toy that you can take it to the range or in your basement/backyard.

    I dont recall where I read it but try the TS site and see whether you can dig up anything. It is not the shopping that would be interesting but the chance to try out or demo the latest JDM gears in the fitting centers.

    It does not sound like that you are a frequent visitor to the city. To browse new stuff, there is always Victoria Golf. Check www.victoria.co.jp for a location near you. For tons of new-used JDM, you should visit a Festival Golf near you. www.festivalgolf.jp It helps if you read a little Japanese. If you are into personal golf fittings, I think TS, Callaway and PRGR has fitting centers all over the city (for a fee.) Good Luck and enjoy the city. particularly the food.
  18. Please give a review of the FW. I am thinking about a 3 and 7 wood to complete my set.
  19. Is the 502 also forged by Endo?
  20. T, don't tell everyone. It is my secret weapon. I actually built two, one with Machline 7060 S for me and one with GD QT 65 SR for my bro. Good old fashion non high tech driver if you are a decent ball striker. It does not even come with a head cover, just a bubble warp.

    I think it is more of a Chinese connection than Japan nowadays.
  22. check the old thread about 2 to 3 weeks ago. http://forum.tourspecgolf.com/index.php?showtopic=25979
  23. He could be talking about selling you his. You do know G Field is gone right?
  24. I thought the Epon 301 is s25c. Are you talking about TS or Epon in your question?
  25. PT is good but with a H/S of 87 mph, perhaps a PT5 or PT6 would be better.
