what is the white label that is on the shaft near the grips of nearly all JPGA players? Why dont PGA hav them?

Usually its for woods, some players have it on their irons it is a run down of that clubs particular specs.

Head weight

Total weight

CPM's

Face angle

etc...

To be honest I don't know, I never wasted my time buying a Tour R7. I have hit them yes but I still rate the M.A.X, Retail U.S, then TP before the Tour version.

They are all the same pretty much, The Tour probably has a face angle fit to a pro and maybe a few grams heavier without the weights.

I can't remember a Japanese driver/fairway wood that I have bought that doesn't have these stickers indicating weight, torque, flex, swingweight, length, etc. The Shimano Ultegra X I had even had the cpms on it!!! I take them off my clubs right away though. If I leave it on it makes me feel like the hacks who are out there swinging the 3 year old hawkeye/vft drivers with the faded bar code sticker still on at the bottom of the shaft.

XXIO, you are such a golf snob! :laugh:

Maybe the tour guys are just too lazy to pcik them off.

I hate the glue and half peeled stickers that don't come off easy, makes your equipment look scabby!

Opps, I forgot to mention guys, There are two types of this white sticker. Most of us see the ones that come on every Japanese wood retail. The Pro's stickers are more detailed and personalized.

Wow does this mean I had a "tour issue" Shimano Ultegra X....It was probably 100Xs better than their retail version :whistle:

Jboy....I know I am an admitted equipment snob...on a budget at that. I don't think I have ever paid retail price on anything plus I hardly buy anything new anymore unless it is a really good deal. I buy used now because I know 99% of the time I'm going to "shaftenstein" the club at least 3xs anyway.

:money:
