bngolfer Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) Since I've been a member for just about 10 years, I figured it is time to show off some of the goods. This is what my bag looked like for most of last season: Grand Prix XP-3 Platinum 10° with Diamana X 70 in stiff or Baldo 911D 9.5° with Diamana Blue Japan Limited 73 in stiff Agrind Kobe 15° with Fire Express 75 in sx or Proceed Ti-UT 15° with Basileus UT-8 in stiff Royal Collection BBD 505V 21° utility with Tour AD-UT 95x Honma TW-U #4 with KBC C-taper light in stiff Yamaha Tour model 2009 with KBS Tour black nickel in stiff, hard stepped once YuRuRu Raw Gekku 45° with KBS Tour black nickel in stiff SDJ Limited 115 plated 50° and 56° with Modus 130 in stiff YuRuRi Tataki 60.5° with KBS Tour black nickel Gold's Factory Private Stock #2 with Nippon heavy shaft and Iomic grip. 35". This is not the one though, this I found on Yahoo Japan brand new the other week (thanks Dean!). The one I've played with is on its way back from TSG club works where it received a treatment of boron black finish with red and white paint-fill and a black Teramoto shaft, topped off with an Elite RS-100 in the same red as the paint-fill. Can't wait.. The bag is an Onoff in stealth black with red plush lining. Even better than my 1995 Belding Snake Eyes (when they were under Ernie Vadersen's management and made the best wedges in the game of golf) staff bag. Besides what is in this bag, there are a few more with stuff like: Yonex Ezone MB with Crazy Tour Targets in Smoke with red Masda slick fits PRGR idbl with Steelfiber Player's Spec in stiff Agrind Classic Crazy CRZ-450 with Crazy Boron Kamui TP-07 Epon ZR460 Buchi wedges Royal Collection wedges Loads of putters and then some :-) So, on to the pictures: Edited November 30, 2016 by bngolfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bngolfer Posted April 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 So an update for the short season we are about to enter into here in Sweden. In about a month the courses will look ok, the greens will roll at 6 and we will have 3 months of golf ahead of us. Yes, a great place to be for those months, although the rest of the year is a bit rough.. Like this morning, April 13th, I have ice on my car windows in the morning and there is a major accident due to icy roads in Stockholm. Anyways, enough moaning as golf season is around the corner. This year it looks like I will have 3 drivers to play around with. That means that every one of them will get about 2 rounds in this year :-) Grandista LS-001 with a Bangvoo Premium Crazy CRZ 450 with a Crazy Boron Jbeam ZY-7 with a Sanki Planaria All shafts are in the mid 60 gram range so about 10 grams lighter than I'm used to. Good, cause I'm getting old. I will also have 3 sets of irons to fiddle with: My trusty Yamaha Tour Model 2009, this year fitted with a set of TT Monacos The PRGR IDBL will also get a set of TT Monacos And the Yonex ezone MB are shafted with Crazy Tour Targets. For the 3-wood selection I have a large number but I don't know if I'll actually have a 3-wood or a 15° hybrid. It will be between: Agrind Kobe 15° with a Fire Express 75 and Proceed 15° Ti-UT with a Basileus For 21° hybrid the RC 505v with Tour AD-UT 95x will stay in the bag. Have to work out a little though. Wedges will be Buchi MT-201 protos mixed with SDJ 115 protos. Driving iron, I want Tanihara's Honma but have not found anyone who wants to steal it for me. Have to find something new, maybe the Titleist 718 T-MB 2-iron. Putter will likely be the Gold's Factory Private Stock #2 that I had refinished at TSG Clubworks in black boron with a matching Teramoto shaft. Looking forwards to this season that I hope also involves a trip or two to the range. Haven't been in a couple of years so to make the Yonex MB work I will have to hit a few. Happy golfing brothers!

Ian-500 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 Looking forward to some feedback on those drivers, particularly the zy7. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Shankenstein Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Nice set up. Did you say the golf season is only three month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bngolfer Posted April 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Thanks Doc! Well, tomorrow morning we will have -7 degrees C here. It has been snowing some today.. Some courses around where I live are open but most will open their greens in 2-3 weeks. I normally don't hit the course before some time in June as the greens are just shabby. Then in late August they let the grass grow a bit longer and most of the fun is lost. Some people play April through September but not many.

bngolfer Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 That would be wise. Anyone have a spare house in LaJolla? I'd be happy to look after it for a few years ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how you guys can live with only. few months of golf a year... Seriously, I couldn't do it. Makes me want to offer out a spare room or something to TSG'ers. ?

bngolfer Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 Please start a TSG Airbnb for us. Include JDM company and entry to some private clubs. That would be awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bngolfer Posted April 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2017 It's snowing now, wind is howling and it is minus 7. Lovely.. Stockholm in about a month from now though: mmm beautiful in every aspect (including los ladies). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Shankenstein Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Well if anyone here wants to make their way out to the Seattle area, we can provide the JDM company. As for me, I probably wouldn't be able to get anyone out on any private courses. There are alot of good public ones though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bngolfer Posted April 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Hey Doc, I played asme really good public and private courses in the Seattle area back in 1995. Semiahmoo, Avalon, Loomis trail (which was the private and Japaneese owned if I recall. It was amazing with very few members and very few rounds played. Greens were rolling 12 the few times I played it.) Sahalee was fantastic too. It's been a few years since I've been back to Seattle but next time I'm bringing my sticks!

Dr.Shankenstein Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 For sure. Yesterday a foursome of us TSG'ers played a round up near Bellingham talking about gear and more outings/get togethers. You will have to join us. The Washington course I really want to play is Aldarra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bngolfer Posted April 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Sounds like a lot of fun! I will have to create a good reason to go that will stick at home... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
