Shankopotamus Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 I haven't been active in following JDM products for a little while now, probably less than a year, but it feels like an eternity. So I'll probably be posting several "what's good, what's new?" type threads over the coming weeks. I am very aware that much of newest 2014 products will be revealed at next month's Japan Golf Fair, but I don't mind being brought up to speed with last year's 2013 stuff. So, as for FW and Utes, as I've been doing to my best to catch up on information and knowledge, I'd like to know what you guys think about the ones made by Romaro and Yamaha. I've handled a few Yamaha products before, mostly pre-2012, and they just feel so darn good. Length has been ok, but the feel has been amazing. Could some of you share your opinions about Romaro stuff, especially if you can compare the 2 brands. Also, don't be shy to chime in about other brands as well. I know Ryoma is a distance monster, but that's like stupid expensive stuff that I really only fantasize about, haha. Anyway, any info is appreciated, especially comparison info. Thanks!

tokidoki1986 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 For FW I've tried many JDM brand and my favorite has been Epon for a couple years until I've got S-Yard XV FW from TSG a couple weeks ago and it kick all other FW out of my bag, not a distance monster but 9 out of 10 shot I hit with XV from both tee n fairway or even in rough only thing I can mention about the XV is nothing but straight and of course it's already on top of my FW list right now. And for UT I've been playing with my Yamaha D UT for almost 5 years, there are also many UT come and go in my bag but nothing ever be able to kick the Yamaha out of my bag. There's also a couple UT that quite impressive for me OnOff is one of them and PRGR Egg is a distance monster in both UT and FW but I didn't like the feeling of it. For Ryoma it's a distance king for many people all of my friends gain distance from Ryoma in both Driver and FW but it's never work out for me. Romaro I haven't try the FW or UT yet but I've try a Driver and for me I think it's as good as any other brand nothing special unlike the type R irons that I think it is one of the best irons in 2013.
