Posted June 9, 200816 yr comment_150259 As you already know much of the Geotech brand is forged in Japan, not All but a lot. The price points on these irons are astonishing, If you are hesitant to get into JDM gear due to the higher prices we can suggest Geotech clubs like the EK Forged and 670HC as seen below. They look familiar to you guys?
June 12, 200816 yr comment_150318 Wow, they sure do look nice. Has anyone played the blades? I just sold my Mizuno MP-60's to try and fund my entry into the realm of Japan clubs. How would they compare to the Geo blades?
June 12, 200816 yr comment_150322 They look like some scratch clubs Ive seen around. I think (pretty sure) its the same mold/die but slightly different alloy and surface treatment. Edited June 12, 200816 yr by Duffer19
June 12, 200816 yr comment_150323 Chris,do we know which forge plant and steel used? curious as they look very good.
June 12, 200816 yr Author comment_150333 Many brands that can't afford R&D and tooling costs select to adjust open model heads. Another name for open model heads are catalog blanks. Smaller brands like Scratch, Zodia, Golden Ratio, Nano power and over a dozen more simply adjust the top line, sole, and other specs of these blanks and add their own Logo. Are they good? Yes they are... would I suggest them? Only if you are on a budget. I would not suggest paying big bucks for anything open model though. Keep in mind that the models shown above have been around for almost 5 years, They are very basic in design and manufacturing with no sharp edge tooling or CNC milling. They are accessible through a variety of different foundries and grinding facilities so narrowing down a manufacture proves difficult.
June 12, 200816 yr comment_150334 what type of black finish is on the iron at the bottom? How will it hold up?
