i looked up on the brigdgestone/tourstage site and noticed that when looking at a couple clubs, one says it is 'assembled' in japan, and the other says assembled in china. the 703 says japan, while the new GR says china. Are both these clubs forged by Endo and just taken elswwhere for assembly, or what is the difference?

thanks

Tourstage produces some stuff in China and Japan.

Usually the high end that requires manufacturing ENDO is what is produced in Japan. The stuff with 2 piece forged construction or items with tungsten inside of the sole.

Thanks. I'm interested though in the new GR but does being made in China make it any less quality? I love the feel of the forged viq's i have and don't want to lose that.
