September 16, 200618 yr why do u always have to do this! everytime i think i have my bag set u come up with something so pretty and sooo tempting to tease and pick my brain! pm sent.... have u hit them yet?
September 17, 200618 yr Author not many at all by Srixon. we are hiring 2 master club fitter/builders on the 1st of October and will be able to do everything in house.
September 17, 200618 yr it will be great as tsg will have there own PRO DIVISION wrx shop!!!!! :tsg_smilie_smile: these irons rock btw chris.....how many sets u got in?
September 17, 200618 yr Chris, will these be Japan issue only? They look ideal , and I imagine these are quite forgiving with a massive sweet spot...yummy!

Chris,will these be Japan issue only? They look ideal , and I imagine these are quite forgiving with a massive sweet spot...yummy! Yes sir Japan only. I really like how the faces have the slight milling marks on it. I agree they look pretty forgiving and I will keep you guys posted on how they work as soon as i got time to put them in play.
September 20, 200618 yr if japan only, will there be a u.s. equivelent or new version that will be similar or close? thanks
September 20, 200618 yr Chris these are very nice but they look to have quite a bit of offset. Am I seeing that right? Nice innovation with the undercut channel beneath the hosel. I take it that would reduce drag allowing for the club to get through the turf better? Glad to hear TSG will be able to now fully accomodate all of our requests for special specs by having your own clubfitters!! :tsg_smilie_cool:
September 20, 200618 yr Two master club builders on site. Don't need that :tsg_smiley_no: :tsg_smilie_money3: The sole looks a little wide for me, but that could be the pix. Is that "insert" a Tungsten plug (i.e., weight) or is it purely for feel?
September 24, 200618 yr Author Two master club builders on site. Don't need that :tsg_smiley_no: :tsg_smilie_money3: The sole looks a little wide for me, but that could be the pix. Is that "insert" a Tungsten plug (i.e., weight) or is it purely for feel? the long irons have a tungsten composite within the head itself. my guess is just a lower CG in those irons compared to the mid and short. perhaps by adding 10-20 grams. Yup, 2 clubmakers, jacque and I are in the process of getting certified in repair, fitting, design and frequency but still need to apprentice under some real guru's one of which is Koyama from japan. these guys are not for TSG alone as we have some very big things we are bringing to the industry outside of TSG early next year. The goal is a tolorence of .25 - .50 and offer whats called blueprinting standard to everyone by using 2 clubmakers to build 1 set and double check eachothers work.

October 2, 200618 yr still hoping to get a review and comparison against the epon lineup. TSG did a mini comparo here: http://forum.tourspecgolf.com/index.ph...st&p=124686 Edited October 2, 200618 yr by gocchin
November 12, 200618 yr What is the offset specs compared to the 506? Does these show an improvement over the 506? Am I to assume they come in LH? Thanks, David
November 12, 200618 yr How do they compare in offset with the I302 What shaft options are availble Price ?
November 12, 200618 yr The ZR-600 has the same offset as the 506's except for the 7 irons, the 600 has more progression. David
April 18, 200717 yr Author Offset numbers are recorded a different way in Japan. Whatever the case these irons are pro level as they are the #2 most played iron on the JPGA tour.
April 19, 200717 yr These are wonderful irons, soft but not mushy, accurate & beautifully made. I find them easy to use & quite forgiving & is my back up set when my game is not on.
April 22, 200717 yr I think these are sexy irons I dont think nothing for a while can knock out the Fourteen 770 forgred I have in the bag right now. Very nice irons all the same.
April 23, 200717 yr Chris, Somewhere along the way I think you said this was one of your favourite Srixon irons, but in a comparison awhile back, I 'thought' you mentioned something about them not being your favourite when hitting off a mat or at a range. I think you had another post up today about the interplay between grind and feel, so I wondered if there was something about the ZR-600 grind that you didn't like, or if the club just wasn't quite what you were after. Cheers.
