Haovictor Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Want to get some education on this question. I saw this pics on Dead or Alive website. So is this a premium line of Epon, or a secondary label? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted March 26, 2017 Report Share Posted March 26, 2017 Its a project with Epon and their Korean Distributor C&S. Its about 2 years old now. Shafts are made in Japan by FSP while the heads are made in Thailand at Endo. They are adjusting the epon molds doing things like ordering new sole molds these are all adjustments and not new original designs etc.. The irons in the photo is the P3. Which by the way is still not sold out despite what fan boys say. These clubs all have very light heads look at the P3 version D0.5 stock, look at the lie angle on the driver 62* those two things show who the intended target is. They were at the U.S golf show demo day as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to look into a set of these very good looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haovictor Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I think their head weight is ok. The specs sheet shows the 5 iron is 256 on weight. Quite standard. But I'm not convinced to pay even more than P3's price on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard is also 37.25 on the #5 so if you bring it up to 38" I think your fine on SW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D22marshall Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I sometimes don't understand why you tend to bag out certain brands and promote others it would be great to get feedback unbiased on all new gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because i am bias, thats the truth. All humans have bias. so dont let it rub you the wrong way. What kind of feedback are you looking for? When I rant people get insight and dont have to agree.

D22marshall Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Chris that response is top notch. As long as people understand that good for you. so in you opinion are these heads rare limited great looking head or a watered down version of the p3? Also why is epon trying this avenue?

Thank you, as you can tell Its pretty obvious i dont like Epon, its the history we have. The product is fantastic so lets seperate that from my feelings about the brand. I can go on and on about this so ill zip it now. Not watered down, P3s are good, most of their products are killer. The look well too much text for me and kinda confusing with the branding but still very cool in satin. I take it back on the head weights it was the length that makes them a light SW at 38" they are fine. but 62* lie on the driver... No clue what they are doing. This reminds me of LFD.

D22marshall Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Yeah I love epon gear but I have tried so many of there drivers and fwys etc can't use them well, might just be me. But the irons and wedges and di's are superb. personally I moved back to ping i20 driver 3 and 5 and consistency has picked up a lot. cheers thanks for your thoughts on the dead or alive e60 wanted the p3s but black was not for me so will try and get a set of these ones.

Can't get use to their drivers and fws. But the irons and wedges are superb. I am always trying other brands but always come back to epon irons. They just perform well for me on course and its hard to find another that perform better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobmontana Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Looks like Epon is coming out with their version of the above driver design in gold ... which usually means non-conforming Senior player oriented driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoyoDan Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 does anybody know what the "60" stamped on the back of the iron head in the cavity next to the little Epon logo mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
