Hutch Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Any long standing JDM ho's out there had any experience with the original epon Technica 2200 forged blade or similar. I love the look of these and recently picked a set up in fantastic condition 3 through SW, wernt cheap but thought worth the effort given how rare and the condition. Any feedback on these would be much appreciated before I refurbish with some new shafts and a set of gripmasters.

daamartin Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Bit like the older Yamaha's. Gotta be good and fun to play. Just add 1 club with the weaker lofts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Man those are beautiful! How's the offset and top line? I've never seen this one before! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted April 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Offset not bad but is a bit, top line nice and thin. Edited April 24, 2016 by hutchy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian-500 Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 Those look sweet Hutch. Some of the older stuff does look very cool, be it jdm or usdm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Ta Ian Thinking was blades are blades right? Not much technology just pure. New shafts with today's advancements and they should be as good as any...Hopefully. Tech wedges and 3W found. Cheers Deano and Daz. Only 5W needed. Zen will be the flatty, classic in all regards.

+TourSpecGolfer Posted April 25, 2016 Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 It's not that simple CG, head weight, lofts, CG depth and height, and manufacturing methods of yesterday vs today means blades are not blades. for example you would suspect those should be low CG, higher launching easier to hit due to the shallow face and mass low? well it's very likely that there are easier to hit higher launching recent blades that don't have as much mass low and a taller face. know what I mean? Anyway enjoy, I've seen these before even older models in Japan never hit them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted April 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2016 Thanks for the insight Chris, yep know what you mean...easy is god for me. Will pick your brains on shaft options once I have weighed the heads if ok with you. I ant up with CGs and alike so advice would be cool. Being weaker lofts do you think I should shaft out of sync to accommodate lofts and CG? This will be fun...Plan is play everything half inch shorter than my STD for nice control.

I would say dont put much $$$ into it or overthink it. a set of decent used shafts at your lie/length/swing weight/grip size is enough.

Hutch Posted May 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 So much good gear around D (past & present) it would be difficult picking lemons ;) I am looking forward to re shafting these though with some nice ferrules (epon single silver ring) then a set of grip-master black wraps. These will be the coolest clubs I own, not sure if they will be the best but fun non the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
