Gaijin_Golfer Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Today I managed to get out for the first time they year on the course and this was the first round with the Tourstage putter in the bag and all I can say is, "wow". Ive never been a fan of mallet putters but Im loving the soft feel of this putter and now true the ball rolls with it. All winter I had been practicing putting on carpet but it usually takes me a few rounds to get the feel of putting on grass again but I was rolling it really well with this putter. I made several putts of over 10 feet and even on a few putts that were over 20 feet I managed to lag it up within a few feet of the hole. Looks like I might need to put some serious consideration into more JDM clubs when the time comes. Are Mizuno's JDM clubs really that different than the North American offerings?

Gaijin_Golfer Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Any pictures? None yet. I'll have to see if I can get some up tomorrow or sometime this weekend. I bought it for $70 on Ebay and thus far its been worth every penny. Id love to have more JDM clubs in the bag but man, are they expensive. Im not sure that I could convince my girlfriend to let me spend $700+ on a driver or $2,000+ on a set of irons just because they are from Japan. She knows I love Japan but shed probably give me a weird look and say, "arent the Mizunos that they sell here good enough for you???" She doesnt usually question my golf spending, just as I dont question her when she wants to go out to a really nice restaurant or when she wants to spend a ton of money on clothes but theres a limit to that.

The paint isnt perfect on it but the face and sole dont have any wear on them (just bag chatter paint chips) and I got it for $25, so no complaints here.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Mizuno's JDM line is called the JPX. It's a little on the big side. Go with something other than Mizuno for JDM. You can get some excellent deals in the B/S/T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get some excellent deals in the B/S/T. Thanks. Mizuno has the JPX line here in the states and its definetly their game-improvement line. Ive tried out most of it and theyre actually really nice clubs, just not the prettiest irons in the world (big heads with fairly deep cavities). About Mizuno in JDM: message recieved. We'll see how I like these Tourstage clubs. Like I said, Ive always been a Bridgestone ball guy but never really tried their clubs. Between my 3 Tourstage woods and my Bstone wedge, we'll see how I like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
