Craig Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) You will have to bear with me as am busy and computer issues at home and work. My lovely assistant Ashlee is adding the photos and I will do the post later from my IPad As I have mentioned, this has been a hard post to write. Computer problems and also exactly how to write it. So Iwill break it down into 3 parts, Delivery, Performance and then nead to head against the Epon 316. I was fortunate enough to sell a kidney, what the hell I have another, a spare. What better way to spend my windfall. a new set of irons. I desperately need another set. The Modart special totally machined irons took my fancy. Remember this is before any of their stuff was released, so we did nothave the benefit of even seeing those smick looking woods. I still had one spare spot in my big Crazy Bag, my bag of tricks. They were ordered, no fanfare, simple and easy just as it always is/was with Tario and TSG. 24^ 4 iron with 4^ increments to give a PW of 48 My standard order, half inch longer, lie angles blah blah blah Crazy C Taper shafts in SR flex, red grips ( theres just something about red), my initials and get rid of the Made In Japan if possible. All standard for me. Simple, like me I dont know if it is vanity, but I do like my name or initials on this custom gear. I think it goes back to my troubled childhood, where it seemed to be the only way to stop our original inhabitants from stealing my stuff. Those super intelligent TSGers know its because it means I cant sell anything. Maybe I am not as silly as you think Fot he first time ever I had hesitation. These are supposedly the softest purest heads possible..... And C Tapers. Dont get me wrong, I have no doubt they are the best shafts for me. I have 3 sets in different irons. But they are a bit harsh, I dont think there are any harsher, except maybe my Grade 2 teacher, maybe I dont ever get that pure silky smooth feeling, ever. To me they are more like bludgeons. maybe the Russians should use them in their next seal cull So I made the decision to change to graphites. Lets take advantage of these pure soft heads. MCI, Crazy, there are plenty MCI got the nod and the order was changed Now we wait and wait, not quite a Buchi wait though Oh Boy this is gunna be good Surprise, and I still have the 52,56 and 60 wedges to go. Boy, I don't need any more surprises like that. Must admit I have had a similar shock opening a box, my first year at uni, strathpine Drive In, Edwina, knockers to die for( back then the only silicon was in the hardware store), back seat, very cosy.... Only to find Edwina was really Edward. Almost the same feeling, well no, nothing like it really But you get my drift What to do, what to do. And yes Edward walked home Edited August 8, 2014 by Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpbachman Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 Well, at least you have a nickname for the set now ;) I am sure these will play great but if not, given they are not personalized, they might be a lot easier to offload to us other TSGers ;) I am eager to hear the comparison to the 316s...
