Mjr. D Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I'm curious to try something with a laser etched face. Preferably something to replace my 302s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 There are no models forthcoming for the next while... we can always suggest it for their new releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreBeerBetterGolf Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I wonder how long the etching or milling is going to have an effect on a person's gamer irons...ever see how fast the milling wears off a Vokey? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah it'd be cool to see. Just how Onoff did with their Forged iron this year and last years Yamahas. I've never hit irons with this so I'm not sure what real world differences it makes but I'd like to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Here is a custom face endo did for pro golfer Shingo Katayama on his ONOFF Forged... notice the YEN symbols and the different crescent wave milling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gocchin Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Definitely has an effect, more bite and more friction on the ball = more spin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Definitely has an effect, more bite and more friction on the ball = more spin! whats the reason they dont do this in their irons? cost or durability issue or both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted December 3, 2012 Report Share Posted December 3, 2012 Well there is definitely more work involved which means increased costs... and will Epon do it in the future... they very well might. 2013 ONOFF forged: 2012 Yamaha Tour: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruinduke Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 (edited) I noticed when Cleveland tried the micro milling on the face that they wore very quickly. Grooves were fine, but the micro milling seemed to disappear at heavy impact areas. Anyone experience this on the models posted?

DaleUK Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 here is another pic of the face milling on the 2013 yamaha blade; Is that the same pattern as the V forged?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
