Posted August 11, 200816 yr Anyone know what this is? A prominent Asian tour pro had it in play at the 2008 U.S. Open. (I think it is Katayama, but I'm not up to speed as all of you here on the JPGA/JDM.) Might be old news, but I still haven't seen another one, or heard anything about it. Again, I took these in early June, so it may be old news.
August 11, 200816 yr Author When I zoom in all the way in the bottom most picture I can make out Bassara. Guess it's a Bassara, is it a new model?
August 12, 200816 yr Shingo, has long played the bassara,this is one in particular is definately a proto, i will get the exact numer proto from one of my golf magazines...
August 12, 200816 yr My first reaction was a 'Crazy' but then you guys are probably right it being a Bassara proto.
August 12, 200816 yr I think more interestingly is what in the hell tee is he using!? MD, you should travel to the far east more often. These tees are available everywhere and this seems to be the two part one that would either be spring loaded or break away at the middle.
August 12, 200816 yr Shingo is playing a Sumo 5000 10.3* real loft with Bassara Prototype at 46.5". The Bassara has similar graphics to the new Hawk and Falcon
August 12, 200816 yr I'd love to travel to the middle east more often. Those tees are wild! Awesome. Middle East? Close enough>
