Per my suggestion and due to the premium zone's feel and performance being so amazing I have asked Sasaya San to create or attempt to duplicate that same SS304 soft forward roll face insert. He has taken on the task doing Auto CAD on his own and paying tooling and prototype costs out of pocket. TSG member iDrive will be the first customer in the world to own this new insert. The depth a diameter of a milling is by 3 millimeters of circularity and every 1.5 millimeters it mill's 0.14 millimeters per stroke. I'm excited and cant wait. For now look at another TSG members Golds Factory Masterpiece: (IMG:http://www.goldsfactory.com/blog/archives/0704160008.JPG) (IMG:http://www.goldsfactory.com/blog/archives/0704160011.JPG) (IMG:http://www.goldsfactory.com/blog/archives/0704160012.JPG) |

I've been following Sasaya san's blog over the last few months... amazing stuff... lots of gorgeous putters for TSG members. He's excited about the insert he's working on for his "foreign customers" (I guess that's us!) ^^ and tells everyone to look forward to the finished product!

If Sasaya-san could pull this off, that might be the only thing to force me to try and attempt to replace the Premium Zone. I'm sure we will all be very interested observers on this topic over the next few months.

soooooo...
I'm just a little bit excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been Playing with the Premium Zone Putters and absolutely love the roll. But.. there is something about the setup of the Golds Putter that I love that makes me want to Putt with it even more than the G-field. Putting these two together is going to quite special. I can't wait. Pics and Feedback as soon as I get the Putter. Once again, Thanks Chris for the ability to Communicate with Sasaya San and being able to pull this off. Truly amazing when you think about it. (IMG:http://www.tourspecgolf.com/forum/style_emoticons/TSG_Smileys/atsg_logo_anim.gif) RULES!!! This post has been edited by idrive: Apr 20 2007, 01:19 PM |

It depends on what or how many custom options you decide to request. Im sure you have seen the list, it gets long (IMG:http://www.tourspecgolf.com/forum/style_emoticons/TSG_Smileys/tsg_smiley_crazy.gif) (IMG:http://member.tourspecgolf.com/gallery/main.php/d/15925-1/GOLDSPIC.jpg) |
