Spoon Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 More rounds under my belt. Nothing but good shots. Even had to punch a 5w under a tree from about 170 - edge of green. I can't wait for 3w to arrive. Who else ha ordered these woods other than idrive? Bob, I am really considering these woods, however its the 3w I really want. Since these can be slightly bent and adjusted I was Thinking of 15* but having them bens it 1* weak and 1* open. Just concerned about the height of the face as I don't want it Super duper deep. Hopefully u get yours and make a review. Looking forward to them. Was also thinking of getting the 13 driving spoon for tight holes and just using a 5w from the fairway in lieu of a 3w Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogeydog Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Yea I am curious also because if the 3w is anything like the others, then I will have concluded a lifelong search for fairway woods I can actually play. The 3w has been on order for a month. I don't know if they are sold out due to popularity or some other reasons. My friend who has been witness to countless successful shots with these refuses to hit the clubs because as he puts it, "I don't have money for any more clubs.

gian11 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 I really like the 3 wood and definitely order one for myself - just saving :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3leggedcat Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 I read this review and several others on Akira and other Japanese and Korean club makers. I've been an Adams guy for a while, I like supporting the smaller guys (though Adams isnt anymore). So I am making the plunge. (thanks to the reviews) I live in Australia and am coming to the USA this month and picking up a full set of Akira, top to bottom in the bag. H210 driver + Diamana Kail'i Blueboard 60S M215 FW + Diamana Kail'i Blueboard 70S M117 FW + Diamana Kail'i Blueboard 80S M120 FW + Fubuki AX 85S KS 201 Irons 4-PW + KBS C Taper S flex US Tour wedge 50 degrees US Tour wedge 55 degrees US Tour wedge 50 degrees Masuda Putter heel shaft Type 2 with line - 35 inch, 4 degrees, hand crafted. Yasu at Akira Golf in LA been very helpful. I'm going with C-Taper shafts, have them in my CMB's and I love them great feel. Plus biting the bullet and getting top level shafts for the woods and Hybrid. yes there are 15 clubs, just so I have some choices based on the courses I will play. From LA going up to Vegas end of the month for a 4 day Golf school (Bird Golf). Did it last year so this is a refresher with Jim Samsing. I picked Bird Golf because it's run by Carl Mumford (he was Bob Rotella before anyone knew who he was). And it has as much to do with the mental game as the mechanical. Anyone ever thinking of doing a Golf school (this one is 1 on 1) do it, it's the greatest learning experience you will ever have. I'll try and post after a couple of days at the school to give you my thoughts on the clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
