Vegaman Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) Hi all I saw the new "Full forged" Kamui KP-X driver today in Bangkok, they sold it both head only and shafted,m pretty pricey stuff, almost in the same league as Kamui Works/Crazy/Jbeam/Ryoma when it comes to price. The standard shaft was a Fire Express, so a pretty serious looking club. I liked the way it sat and looked really hittable with a deep face. Also liked the black finish with a satin finish "silver" face. This is a club from Kamui Pro, not to confused with Kamui Works that we can find in the TSG proshop. Kamui Pro is apparently a spin off from Kamui Works, the result of some some internal conflict, created by some disgruntled Kamui employees, from what i remember reading in an article that Tario wrote some time ago? EDIT: Im not sure how "new" this driver is, maybe its a new version of the KP-X or maybe its just new in Thailand. Very pricey in Thailand, not sure they are as expensive in Japan though.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 Just want everyone to know it's not the Kamui that we sell in the proshop. These are from a different Kamui, I know it's confusing but there was a split years back. The one you see in the pics has gone the mass production route while the one we sell is hand crafted.

jamnguy1 Posted October 4, 2011 Report Share Posted October 4, 2011 In addition to the Kamui Works, I've owned a few of the clubs from "this" Kamui brand, namely the Typhoon TP-03 and TP-05. They are quite good and comes with a very high quality stock shaft as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, thats right, I remember reading an article about this here on TSG. Did you ever consider selling Kamui Pro drivers? Or would that be less than ideal because of the split you mentioned? They also have some pretty good looking irons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
