Spoon Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 after many sleepless nights and hours of mental gymnastics i decided to pull the trigger. am real excited , these are a must have for any shaft afficionado. i thought my days of shaft mongering were over. after selling my modus 303 combo, a void was created and hoping this fills it! i had some experience with the tour concept from years ago, hopefully this one is everything i expect it to be. will be here in a week. stew i took your advice, hope i enjoy it as much as you do!

supo Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 well............... i HATE the feel of TT dynamic gold shafts . they really are ordinary , feeling tubes of silver painted granite. in ANY HEAD. why these were the only shafts availble for the last 20 thousand years to gofing mortals i dont know. thank G, for companies like NS , shimada etc.., who take care and the time to produce something "playable" to the normal 99% of the golfing population . then these things came out last yr.... and they are "tour issue only" think................somehing like .., if DGs200 are at the back of the classless shaft train carriage . (in the back row.....) and NS 950 s are the first class behind the engine. these puppies are the top of business class. they are smooth, they dont break ur elbows on miss**ts they arnt low nor high. they are super stable. they are moveable. not rod like and they are alomst unbeatable in wind........... ive beben playing these in all flex from S to tour x (gulp, bit off a bit too much there is can assure you...) for the last say 9 months they are an utter pleasure to play. for all i REALLY know............, they really might be a DG s300 spray painted gold shaft sold to mugs like me for 5 times the retial price. but they dont feel like it. i trust them to the very best heads i own. ONLY the very very best if they come up gents go em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon Posted July 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 ok guys i tested out the monaco yesterday in my 3 iron yesterday. i got a pull from my friend and reshafted. let me say that i like it. not harsh at all, heavy yes but not harsh. this does not feel like any DG i have ever tried. feels like MR DG had a few too many sake bombs and had a fling with MS Nspro proto. Lovechild is Monaco:) these have tremendous potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 i think ull find these are slightyl "flighted" i think thats the right term. by that i mean.. the 3 iron goes much higher in comparison to the pw.. i hit a cpl of killer 3 irons on sunday and the ball was high.... the PW u can knock it down hard and get a ton of spin, i was really surprised how much. and how LOW the pw flight is. these are good sticks. they play heavy tho.

Spoon Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 All irons reshafted today in record time. Have temp grips on them as I have not received My gp grips. Had them based on 38" 5 iron. Basis is my wrist to floor Measurement was 35inch. So my min length for comfort @38" also went with 3/8" as opposed to .5" increments based on TOM Wishons theory on real world club building. Clubs will be fitted for lie Tom as they have become a bit upright Due to the extra length. Club feels heavy and hefty, almost like A battle axx-ish!! I could get used to it. Can't wait to try em out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Wow! These feel like no true temper DG shaft I have Ever tried. It's amazing stew was right in every aspect. Played in a typhoon this afternoon, only one in the course These excel in the wind, has the characteristic of the s300 But friendlier and less harsh.. More reviews after my tourney tomorrow. I love them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon Posted August 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 good, thought htey might suit I'm still in shock. Straight out of the bat they worked. No need For adjustments. They suit me very much and they are nice and heavy Works wonders for my tempo. I can imagine several of my back ups shafted with these.
