    Take a look at this link. PM Tourspecgolfer for that particular shaft. http://www.tourspecgolf.com/catalog/index....2a&filter_id=28
  2. Absolutely killer bag! :cool: I couldn't even go there though. I like them nice and easy. :laugh:
  3. Hah, I love it. Any chance of us ordering any through you, TourSpecGirl? :cool:
  4. If Gauge Japan makes them, then the guy to PM is Tourspecgolfer.
  5. I had this one. It's a Japan only non-conforming model. I didn't like it. Don't forget these are old clubs and they are a little dated now. "Holy Grail"? Maybe at one time, but now... I don't think so..... Here's the specs... 300 Series Metalwoods - Hosel size can be either .335 or .350. The unconforming one I had was a .350. It had a 757 Fujikura in it. That's right... 757 w/.350 tip. :smile1: Many of the "Tour" models were .335. 300 Ti Model Left Handed Loft Lie Head Volume Club Length Grip 7.5 no 7.5° 59° 300cc 45" TM Crossline 8.5 yes 8.5° 59° 300cc 45" TM Crossline 9.5 yes 9.5° 59° 300cc 45" TM Crossline 10.5 no 10.5° 59° 300cc 45" TM Crossline
  6. This might help. These are all the 200's that I know of that you might run across... 200 Steel Definitions 200 Retail – square to slightly closed face. Very easy to get up in the air. 200 Tour Ridge Top - High COG, low ball flight. Square setup. 200 Tour Ridge Top Duffy, same as the one stated above but has a fade bias. Square setup. 200 Tour Smoothie, has a smooth crown, Low COG, really easy to hit off the deck. Square setup. 200 Tour Clarke - It is the size of the ridge top, but has a low COG like the smoothie. It has a "C" on the hosel. Rare. Square setup.

    Most people use it in a driver. In America, the 661 is replaced by the 652 which most guys don't like anywhere near the 661. You can still get the 661 from Japan and it's available on this site. The 661 is fairly easy to load and has a mid to higher trajectory. It has a little "brittle" feeling but it's a good shaft that fits a wide range of golfers. For that swing speed, I'd definitely stay with Regular flex shafts.

    Heck, the new Tourstage carry or the PRGR bag are as good, if not better than the older bags that you are talking about. Bags get better just about every generation. Materials, workmanship, design... :laugh: Get over it.
  9. All of the above are correct.
  10. FAQ replied to MHLY01's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    That's a great review. I've been playing mine for a couple of weeks now and I agree. It's much more face balanced than my Tour Cameron Newport. The Cameron is more weighted towards the toe. The Balde is a great putter!
  11. Depends on the condition, whether or not it's real and more. I've never seen one made from Nickel, but it's possible. Could go for anywhere from $750 to $3,000.
  12. Post some photos with a few different angles. That would help.
  13. Here's the specs for the 27's... http://catalog.mizuno.co.jp/catalog/produc...D=1114796458931
  14. Those are incredible irons Chris! I think they definitely look like a set and match well.

    Wow, great idea "vokester". Remind me to do business with you in the future. You might as well change your name right now. Unbelievable! :fever:
  16. FAQ replied to jdtoyou's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    This is a nice putter. Looks almost EXACTLY like a Newport in the structure. Color is different and it's forged too. The Tour Newport that I have is more toe weighted and the milling on the face isn't as aggressive as on the Gauge. The Gauge has a great feel and is perfectly balanced / head & toe. Gets the ball rolling forward better than the Newport and there is less skipping. It's in the bag.

    That's a nice looking mallet! Curious about the weight of that and how's the headcover? Also, I'm getting a little bit sick of these incredible photos of golf clubs with paradise in the background. Cmon, put a little busted up trash in the back so we all feel at home. :mad:
  18. FAQ replied to SHADY's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    It will increase the swingweight. I'd talk to Joe Kwok about it. +1 (650) 757-8310 between 11A and 2P Pacific Time.
  19. That's exactly what I am saying. I am also saying that about the newer TM R7 TP's too. The R300 and 500 Series TM's did have some differences but those days are long gone. Don't let anyone BS you either.
  20. The Tour clubs are the same as the retail. Titleist has always been like that. They are just tweaked by a fitter for the individual pro that they are for. Lie, loft, etc.. On many brands there aren't any serial numbers at all, especially many clubs sold in Canada.
  21. This was great. One day to get back to me... Here's their email. To Jim: Thank you for contacting Mizuno USA. Since they originally had a steel shaft they took a .355 taper tip shaft and if originally had a graphite shaft it would have taken a .370 parallel shaft. The heads for the steel shaft model are weighted and designed for steel shafts only and the heads for the graphite shaft model are weighted and designed for graphite shafts only and cannot be interchanged.

  22. The Halo scratches sound like sand scratches from dirty balls, not cracks. The Driver Scratch - hard to say if it can be fixed or not. A club refinisher would have to take a look at it.
  23. Thanks in advance. I think it's .355 but I'm not sure.
  24. FAQ replied to TourSpecGolfer's post in a topic in Japanese Golf Clubs
    Great looking irons! Those will be a sure hit. Order lot's of 'em Chris. It's going to take a lot for me to give up my MP27's though. :love:
  25. Go into the catalog here and put the clubs into your shopping cart and go to checkout. The total will be there.
