+TourSpecGolfer Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 The FW's are very good and long not Ryoma long but pretty darn close. The Drivers on the other hand are not so hot, many of my friends in Japan try Roddio clubs and end up moving on in a short period of time except for the FW which they tend to hold on to longer. TSG doesn't sell these because we won't fix parts which Roddio requires, imo Roddio clubs are a pain due to hosel adapters preventing easy shaft changes, little screws & parts that get loose or fall off and there is no reason for them to have all these parts as they don't improve performance or fitting. Also the retail Roddio shafts are a bit meh because they are love or hate kinda thing. We do sell the shafts. TSG does a 45 day feedback email where we monitor customer satisfaction on various products, Roddio iron shafts do well but don't come close to OT or MCI's, the Roddio wood shafts are equals to TRPX which unfortunately don't last in the bag very long for many 60%ish satisfaction rating. Seven Dreamers has a 95% satisfaction rating! Basileus AAA is 90%! Fujikura EVO II is a very high 80+% as well! TRPX & other model Basileus shafts are only 60% after 45 days of ownership Crazy is a mixed bag, they have some models that are the 95% but others that are 65%.

Staxxx Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Thanks Chris for sharing some excellent feedback !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickyfowler Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Love the feel of the carbon drivers - callaway had some and now the M1/M2. And these Roddio's look really good. We need more info on them even though not available through TSG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needmoregolf Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) I've got a type M, and I think it's nice but doesn't quite edge out my jbeam's. they look great, have a great shape and look fast and sleek, so standing over it is quite a nice confident feel, and sometimes that's worth it's weight in gold. one thing that is quite irritating is the fact that it has a super wide hosel, almost as if they did it on purpose so you have to get a roddio ferrule (I should mention, I have not yet found a way to independently source roddio ferrules) and this alone has stopped me from shaft experimentation, but if I could get my hands on some roddio ferrules, I'd give some of my other shafts a run as the head shape, feel and sound is very nice. I've got a tour ad MJ-6 ryo ishikawa limited shaft and it feels good but produces more spin than my other driver combos.

Staxxx Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 I wonder what the difference between the Type M and the S-Tuning is? I am assuming the S-tuning is conforming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needmoregolf Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 I believe it's head profile, with the M being a more shallow face and S being taller face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 im a pretty big fan of roddio. always have been. their shafts have always been high on my list of top end shafts I much preferred these to crazy for example. the lastest tataki I rate as good as anything ive hit. but as a resale club they are prob the worst out there.. they are virtually unsellable. getting them to fix that ridiculously stoooooooooooooooooopid hosel is one way they wud increase sales for sure. they make u go to roddio shops to get their tradesman to fix the shafts/ ferrules etc and charge like its the 1990s I absolutely detest using their workers nad have pulled their line bec of it. seriously 70 bucks to swap out a shaft... are u kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!

dickyfowler Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 can someone actually tell us what the difference is between M and S ? Is it just that one is shallower faced ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaaayelll Posted March 31, 2016 Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 If I'm not mistaken, the M is heavier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
