Supertri US or Japan

[Ginrin]

After reading the press release about the TM Supertri,there was no word about the face being made of SP700 titanium.All the guys selling the Japan model claims this.

Is there a difference between the 2 models?

not sure but usually with a lot of golf equipment there is most usally a jdm and usdm. guy claiming it could be right but he could be wrong as well. lets let the experts chime in.

You know there are a lot of SuperTri so called Tour and Prototype heads floating around even here in Japan. I spoke to the Taylormade Japan rep to find out where the heck these guys get all these heads.

The TM Rep told me that they cannot confirm authenticity of any of those heads floating around even in Japan. In other words he can't say that they are real NOR can he say that they are not real. He said the source for most of these heads coming into Japan are from grey market Chinese distributors who have access to TM goods in China. They are NOT from TM Japan.

I had approached the TM Rep because I would love for TSG to carry all these kinds of heads too because believe me, a lot of the emails I get are always can I buy this or that head only. But if we can't get it from a legitimate source we won't get it at all.

So these guys selling the so called "Japan Model", it is very possible they come through Japan as heads are floating around here but who knows where the original source is.

TM Japan has not even made an official announcement yet on the release of the SuperTri here so I don't even know what the specs are or materials are officially for the JDM model if there is in fact any difference... The only info we have is on the USDM version. Will we see a SuperTri MAX? Anything TM does these days doesn't surprise me. (^_^)
