Posted August 9, 201311 yr comment_212217 Anyone use this wedge before and hows the ball spin and bounce... what material they use for it s20 s25 they claim it a soft steel.. http://hirotagolf.jp/store/detail/28
August 9, 201311 yr comment_212218 Looks like a solid wedge, raw wedges tend to spin quite a bit.... 14* of bounce on the 58*&60* is quite a bit.
August 9, 201311 yr Author comment_212229 Will it perform like yururi raw or tour.. i never heard about this brand anywhere found it in hk...
August 9, 201311 yr comment_212230 They aren't cheap, never heard of them, but seem like quality wedges, would assume that the spin would be closer to the Yururi raw wedges, the grind is interesting, thin sole with trailing edge. Would also be interested to hear if any one has any other info on these.
August 9, 201311 yr comment_212234 Never heard of these but the difference is Yururi uses original molds on their wedges and sells for half that price while these are open model.
August 9, 201311 yr Author comment_212241 Sorry a newbie question what does open model means is that mean a prototype? is this brand not popular in Japan?
August 9, 201311 yr comment_212248 Sorry a newbie question what does open model means is that mean a prototype? is this brand not popular in Japan? Not popular is an understatement. Open model are pre made designs that you can put your own logo on. Literally you can buy their clubs from the same place they do and write your name on the head. For this sort of money you can do a lot better.

Are you saying they don't do any grind work to the open model, just offering a busily stamped raw wedge?
August 10, 201311 yr Author comment_212258 They offer to stamp your name or initial on their club not re-branding the club.. do make other type NT-001 sold out now available NT-002 model and zero bounce model.. This is what i found in hk
August 10, 201311 yr comment_212273 Are you saying they don't do any grind work to the open model, just offering a busily stamped raw wedge? Of course it's got a grind on it.
August 10, 201311 yr comment_212275 They offer to stamp your name or initial on their club not re-branding the club.. do make other type NT-001 sold out now available NT-002 model and zero bounce model.. They can't re brand it because they don't make it themselves, they have kyoei make it who offers this head with a grind. Not that that's terrible but your stuck with the overall shape and at a price you have so many other original design options to choose from. But by all means go for it if its your ideal wedge.
August 11, 201311 yr comment_212285 I live in Japan and golf clubs is my job and its the first time I have ever seen these!!
August 11, 201311 yr comment_212304 I have seen them a few years ago in a few shops in HK. Did not paid too much attention to them since I haven never heard about them anywhere.
August 11, 201311 yr Author comment_212313 Not my ideal just curios never heard of this brand before, they do offer more models for japanese market but i guess very few people use it too and they price is bad for an unknown quality .. and from their website if im not wrong they dont make the iron set in house.. kyoei make them?
August 12, 201311 yr comment_212326 seems a few new brands appeared, such as TRPX shifts and heads, SHINOGI shift ...
