  1. What is the SR rating for Roddio? CPM 255 to 260 at 45.75"? If you talking about 1/4 flex, are you talking about only 3 cpm?
  2. I dont know the wedge but the pic style looks like could have been taken by Chris. The ferrule on the picture is the same being used currently on Epon clubs.
  3. Flight leaving in 4 hours, enough time for a quick 9.
  4. T: I am just saying that I try to buy a better game (many time just false hope) and in particular older golfers like me, we do need help with more forgiving equipment, such as flex and driver length. If the equipment works, I would try to stick with it for awhile as our golfing horizon is more finite than young bucks like you.
  5. I respectfully disagree with you on this. I, at least, trying out new equipments in the hope of 'buying' a better game which sometime it works, sometime doesn't. At my age, I need new equipments so I can just keep up but not for the sake of just trying new stuff. The main goal here is to THE GAME.
  6. Constantly changing wedge(s) is not really conducive to lower ones score you know. Having said that, I just picked up an new 'old' model Pride 52* for USD100 and put it in bag that I leave in Hong Kong. It has the K's wedge shaft which is sort of rare nowadays.
  7. That's the reason my Yururi Raw 49* I bought last year in Thailand is currently out of the bag and replaced by Epon 50* Copper X. This raw thing is overrated and chew up the ball too much. I think the Epon has better feel than my Yururi anyway.
  8. PM me if you get tired of it or the shaft is too soft for you .
  9. It is the one of the kind by Chris that went for only $909 heads only at ebay by TSG yesterday. It would have been perfect match to your LE driver.
  10. Now we know where THE driver is, did you also get the Black J on eBay?
  11. "I will try to take some topline pics compared to my: MR 23 Blade, MR 23 CB, 2005 X-Blade CB, 2007 X-Blade CB, 2005 TM CB Japan...all mint BTW! " This is crazy and you have all these sets at the sametime?
  12. The best looking PRGR irons in recent years but too bad the shaft is too stiff for me. I can only play up to a M-40. I hope you would get them at this price.
  13. Of couse you are right T but what is 10 g between friends? Anyway, do you know whether 1025 steel is the same as S 25C steel?
  14. Hi T: The site lists them as from 104 to 106 g. I am guessing it is somewhere between nspro 1150 and 950. How about a 1050?
  15. Just get the set and forget about the tip diameter. Anything from PRGR is good regardless even their stock shafts if you know your JDM. Play with it for awhile before changing.

    It is quite simple, you go to the Mizuno Japanese site and click mp vs. JPX. You continue to surf the MP section only and the rest of us can look at both. This way you would not feel disillusioned.

    I have a set that is 10 years old and it is inow in the basement. That particular set was cast but very soft feel. PRGR was the preimere brand in Japan a few years ago or until taken over by TS and the like. It is making a come back with many players irons and drivers. Sorry I cannot tell you anything about current stuff but never hear anything bad about them especially the players irons.

    Sometime buying something like this is all gut feel and my gut tells me the J being first then PRGR (used to play it) then last TS.

    I would take the Black J but I already own a set of S and not sure whether I have the game for a type J although it seems to be the easiest of blade like irons. I have never go into a piece of equipement thinking how much I can recover at the resale. If you do that, you would never buy anything (around here.)

    Just pull the trigger and if it does not work out, put them up for sale here. EVeryone is doing it here so take a risk as long as it is JDM.

    Talking about lie angle, I always have better success with a 60* vs. a 58 or 59* although I am only 5'6". Samething with irons with standard or 1* upright from standard. My Miura cb201 is almost 2* flat measured (or 1* flat spec) which caused me a lot of problem in the beginning. Would the Mizuno be adjusted at the factory or by ones fitter?
  22. Master Can you recommend any Onsen that would have private hotspring in the rooms? I have been to Otaru twice already and Nagoya this year but always looking for better ones. I would try to go at least once a year to Onsen just to unwind.
  23. The CB201 is a international model while the PP is a domestic model. I have the heads in my hand and the are about the same size but with a more progressive offset than 201 but not too much. The sole seems to be wider on the longer irons which would make them easier and it is 2 degree stronger thant the 201. I have not inspect the whole set.
  24. Damn, perfect spec for me too.
  25. Is this different than the 'other' Precious Edition Driver?
