1thunder Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 (edited) Can someone give me some assistance.. I am liking the look of the GR and was curious if anyone has feedback on playability and appearance. What head shape and size and offset is it similar to? I have heard they feel pretty soft. Also any feedback on any other player CB that may not have the larger short iron shape many J spec clubs have... I know most everyone is cracked up on the type J's, but any others?

gocchin Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 It's a cross between the X-Blade CB and ViQ Forged size wise and target audience. Forged by Endo so you can definitely expect feel and quality. To see them in action and from the topline view go here and watch this: http://www.golfdigest.co.jp/golftv/gear/it...n/070515_02.asp Seems to work best in IE, could't get it to work right in Firefox for me. The Yururi Gekku irons also have a smaller compact head and pure feel like the type J. Soft and reasonably forgiving as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2_2 Posted July 25, 2007 Report Share Posted July 25, 2007 I just tried these out a week or so ago... they are pretty forgiving, nice shape, move through the turf pretty well etc. BUT I was really not crazy about the feel, possibly due to the undercut cavity? I love the 2007 ViQ forged irons and the X-Blade CB-2 (great feel, but not as forgiving as the ViQ or GR) but I just could not warm up to the GR. Also, fwiw, the new ViQ forged is getting a ton of play on the JLPGA. Onto a different topic, I was trying to figure out why our admin banned tsg at work... then I looked at T's signature tonight. Question answered lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gocchin Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 She's gonna be 24 in November.... tell them to unban the site! Yeah almost every Tourstage pro on the JLPGA is now playing the ViQ forged. The feel of the GR will definitely be not as pure as the ViQ or X-Blade due to the undercut making it a bit more clicky. Should be pretty forgiving as you said! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2_2 Posted July 26, 2007 Report Share Posted July 26, 2007 T, I will pass the message along to our admin! As for the ViQ's, I'm looking to pick up another set at the moment :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
