  1. Yay! maybe S-Yard can be revived at some stage too...?
  2. hard to believe a Co. that had such a strong product line should fail...... but i realize there are many factors at work here. Best to all concerned
  3. continental did a fab job on my Torstage x drive 445.... still not sure how they preserved the logos..... and revived my eternal Sonartec 3 wood. the finishes were better than the original IMHO..... would recommend wholeheartedly
  4. going to miss you Tourstage.....
  5. isn't the 130 also counter balanced?

    probably at the top of everyone's interest list...... looks like a stealthy weapon.....
  7. whilst disappointed at the demise of the Tourstage marque.....these look good
  8. oooh.... got any more pics?
  9. I think the H and T were deep(h) and shallow(t) versions of the same head and the P came later( i have it in my head that P was for pear shape) but I'm sure someone out there knows more...... All of these heads were/are great coupled with the correct shaft for you.... I'm still rockin' a Sonartec SS07(RC by any other name) head with a Fuji Rombax shaft that I have had refinished twice..... cannot find anything to beat it.
  10. great find and agree on the wedge which looks good apart from that hideous neck... waaaaht were they thinking?
  11. I'd also appreciate any experience with the very not cost effective Bangvoo MAVC 80...... so, sorry, no help with the Dogatti.....
  12. Rolex Sub I have had for 20+ years and a TAG Monaco chrono
  13. shallow i know, but i always liked their logo........ Bridgestone....not so much
  14. The 'Titleist' of JDM I think Chris called them in the past?..... it sure looks like they've dumbed them down (and not just by dropping the Endo forgings) so yeah, now look more like Titleist.... wonder if the prices will reflect this apparent watering down for the US Market?
  15. shame... they got me into JDM
  16. "It's a more forgiving type that is only available in a single loft of 10.5 and aims to improve the drives of the mid cap player" yet the first picture shows one marked as 9.5. no? I couldn't personally get over the squiggle on the crown.... too distracting, but the rest of the optics all look good and i'm sure it will perform well as all S-Yard products do.

    the drivers have always intrigued me.... but never taken the plunge....#coward

    I think it's just the paint ( but i like it) ... maybe they are using updated materials but producing a shaft with the same profile?..

    is this shaft, recently added to the store, a new version or a repaint/refresh job of the old PT shaft? Thanks
  20. That's funny I was going to make the same post askingwhat the latest trend is in drivers....... seems to me that there haven't been too many interesting releases lately....... except maybe Modart, BAldo. seems like Yammy is a bit of a miss this year, (or am i mistaken?)..... Tourstage haven't come up with anything new yet.... so for me TRPX, Romero, S-Yard and Epon AF153...... the shallow heads are on my horizon...... but nothing Really stands out. Still love my 302's on the iron front.
  21. hope they have not lost too much traction..... good luck to them
  22. anyone know of anything new coming? precious little coverage/news from the Golf Fair in Feb. and apart from the limited black woods there doesn't seem to have been any new designs for quite a while......
  23. I understand the comparison and it comes down to personal preferance. Do the other Endo forged marques have the same level of weight tolerance?, cann you get the same level of individual finishimg and build tolerances? or do you have to pay extra to get a clubmaker to blueprint etc? can you specify the face angle on driver heads? can you get all the shaft/grip options without going aftermarket? I've got Epon's, i have confidence in their products, the stuff they come out with interests me.... like no other.... does this make me a mug? probablly.... But sure their marketing,visibility,strategy seems way off...... but then maybe that's part of their charm.... who needs another TM?
  24. yeah but they're not Epon.....
  25. Such a shame...... things can change in business very quickly.... I remain optomistic
