wedgehound Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 Does Every TOUR R7 have to have a Batch Letter above the serial #? I have what i think is a TOUR R7 with the serial # buffed out... However, there is NO A, B, C, etc... above it, or buff mark above where the serial # is and I'm concerned.... PLEASEEEE Let me know. thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breal Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 From what I have learned and heard from TM people, is that if you have a T with a #2 or letter B above the serial # with all numbers its a real registered tour club from TM. If you have the same number with a T a # 2 or B above with XXXXX down the line, its probably a tour head but not registered, stolen, or something weird but could go to tour. Some people have said yes and some no, and these are TM people so who knows but I believe it to be true. But now be in question on yours because if the #'s are buffed off, It might not be tour sorry to say, because if they buff the #'s off it means there hiding the retail #'s and calling it tour for a high price ,or it might be someone selling tour stash and they don't want TM to know who is selling them. They don't want to traced if there not supposed to be selling them. Hey if it works use it but if you paid for a tour club you want what you pay for. The only thing I can say is send to JK and he can tell if it's tour or not. Good Luck hope this helps a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wedgehound Posted October 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 I know all the reasons for doing it... and understand that. I'm just worried that all tour heads have Letters above the serial # to show what batch they came out of. ALso, what other differences are there between the TOUR TP's and the Retail TP's? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey3108 Posted October 9, 2004 Report Share Posted October 9, 2004 I know all the reasons for doing it... and understand that. I'm just worried that all tour heads have Letters above the serial # to show what batch they came out of. ALso, what other differences are there between the TOUR TP's and the Retail TP's? thanks I can't tell you exactly but here what i know:T serial # is definitely from the Tour department as far as i know, The B Marking on top of the T serial number is saying that they did some testing, if i'm not wrong is the COR before they release it to the tour van. Now if i'm not wrong if they've gave it up to the players...most of them have additional marking in the hosel. This last one is the rarest out there and most of them i've seen was scraped out. Make sense, they don't want to get cought by TM officials. IMO the different w/ the retail version is that the tour version has a very consistent face angle if they haven't been bend/tweak. The retail one some of them are as open as the tour. The face core on the tour van stocks has been tested to make sure is legal. Make sense!!! Right! I may be wrong but that is what i know so far. I've seen and worked on everyone of them from the tour van, tour department and the players it self. To many of them and I'm getting confuse too. :laugh: :-D Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbue Posted October 10, 2004 Report Share Posted October 10, 2004 having just the t is like the 510 df's with titanium on the toe. the ones with the t are the original batch of tour heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
