yep, dont even think of putting a bad swing on it. I dont have any trouble with the 18* 5 wood but certainly the 15* 3 wood is very demanding.

I have no idea what the 202 will bring. I, like you, am hoping for a shallower face and lower & deeper CG whilst retaining that distinct pure feel that Epon brings to the table.

PRGR Egg w/ Graphite Design SF8x shaft. Very good combination. Great distance, nice trajectory and good feel but only drawback; for me that's the sound. Its hard for me to get around the sound.

I don't think Hot melt would do much for the sound except change the pitch. Foaming would for sure change the sound making it more of a thwack mute tone.

I would be interested in that but I just dont want to mess with these as they perform so well.

would the sound be a hollow high pitched tin can? i have the same complaint with my wood. sound aside its perfect.

as for hot melting it would not help unless of course you filled the entire head :)

  • What's in the Bag?:
    Clubs I can actually play, not think I can play. Put the ego aside to focus on improving my score.
It's not high pitched actually. I will record the sound for everyone to hear. I have gotten used to it and like it as do the people I play with. They always know when I'm hitting the EGG.

If you have questions about J-Spec equipment or need recommendations or fittings, please send me an email at gocchin@tourspecgolf.com (email is best)

Still in love with my GField 4 wood. Small head but a long walk to the next shot. GD shaft, but only a YS7, still, does the job. Thinking about the PRGR Egg, but then I go play a round and fall in love again.

At the end of the day that's 100% correct, if it performs that well, I wouldnt care if it sounded like a fog horn so long as I hit the target!
