supo Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 2 weeks with these 2 blades in hawaii Good choices i beleive as rhe grass over here is very very different Its spongey short and tigh cropped Absolutely perfect for clipping So First day with the toustage 909 Wasnt overlyhappy with them first col of sessions on range but yesterday at waikoloa kings course on practise session 9 holes cpl of balls per hole they were pretyy. Darn. Good Dgx100 shafts still. Nit the best feeling but they play in these comditions plenty good Ple nty windy lonng into the wind hit driver 1 iron on 3 holes and were short. Twice! Just about to pop out for. First 18 ona second with same irons Fistt gaming mpressions were they are a bit thicker than the 905 and 901 Impact was still solid not butter soft Which is pretty good inbaldes But they are def softer than. The901 cant really tell yet vs. the 905 too soon Going to play each set for 3 days each before swapong about so i can get used to to styles Loving blades again tho loving thinsoles hleps i,measaurably with steep attack path Enough chat Time for game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 You still in Hawaii? Thx for posting, ya I think the X100's are helping you in the wind there but maybe hurting the feel at impact. Have Fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supo Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Mauna lani north course is out of this world Its ....,at the top of my faves its in unbeleievablecondition and the playability is superb its hard without being impossible and it gives up plenty ofoportunities if u can make acpl ofgood shots Beautiful course Anyway The irons 3super solid rounds with the 909 Plenty of balls per hole i mean plenty Yesterday i had cramps in my arms after18 holes and half adozen shots per hole So the 909s i think i know these as good as i can know them And the unmistakeable signal they keep sending is the better ball striker unare the betterbthese are for you My best shots are super i acn see them tail off i acn see them turn into the pin. I can hit punch High fades Low piercing hooks and none of them are anywhere near good enough for what these can actually do Simple as this If ur a very good ball striker and. U like blades then these might suit to a tee They stil dont have the miura blade feel but they are more crisp morerazor like. for disecting a shot with a crisp clip then i rate these v highly Just be a good hitter and the are mustrd Still not mad on the x100 just dull lifeless steel But i gotta admit in al honesty these shafts perform with nice firm aggressive shots and in these heads i think the best ball strikers will play brillinatly Yamaha tomorrow for 3 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIduffer Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Agreed on the compare to the Miura blade. I think you will find the Yam significantly more forgiving than the 909. Also the Yam might be a tad longer, but that also might be the shafts talking. Believe the lofts to be the same across both sets so hard to believe it is the head. Lastly, I think I have the opposite thought on feel compared to the Yam. Yams are crisper than 909, 909s are denser feeling. Again could be shaft but don't think so here...
