im at work piccys TONIGHT!!!!!

[supo67]

the never ending changing bag JUST got a big scare.
irons.
at some stage enought just becomes enough.
after culling numerous drivers this yr to get to a manageable level, and its not just the heads( its actually the shafts i like to play with more than the heads ,)
ive manged to get my palyable driver collection down to no more than playable level and hittable level for the range


the iron sets tho have kinda gone a bit haywire.
again its not just the heads its the shafts im more concerend with


how can steel have this affect on a person????????????????????????????

so this is the bat cave as it stands, and it would seem that its reached its potential, theres somehting i havnt got yet that is being considered but this kinda suits... i cant see anything else getting added anytime soon

srixon pro 100 blades are my best PERFORMING day in/out blades
miuraism sb-01 miura 5002 are prob better feeling at impact, but if only by the barest of whiskersif at all.
but i wont game these over the srikos in a big coin match but to range hit, oh man, they are just unbeleiveable,
im more intrigued with the 5002 than this isms right now, totally differnt shape a lot longer and thinner, with more offset thru the scoring irons. i love the look nad feel. these will see a ton of game time, and id think they wil be left in oz. these are utter classic blades and IMO a LOT better than the 5003 and miles better than the `1957s yes ive had them all before u ask.. that my op.
then i have the new babies that i do beleive might end up a classic, the yonex ezones for mr ishiikawa, chiba ground (mystery forged).
they do play brillinatly and..................... best with DG x100s
never, ever did i ever think id say those woirds but its fact!
i think these WILL become must have blades further down the track.if for no other reason other than they are so differnt to whast out there now, these are genuinly impressive blades to play, nothing ive hit are more workable but controllable at the same time . the heavier shafts are a MUST HAVE in these heads. slightyl thicker grip and nothing more needssaying, NOT the best feel, def NOT forged at ENDO thats very evident form the first hit, but on a short tight track ie a muirhead or dye track.., i wont take antyhing else out . the 2011 tourstage blades are similar to the ism in stature , the thinest of soles, but a bit clicky even thothey are endo forged, they have a slightyl differnt feel to say other endo clubs. thee design is THE best to look at of all blades. the modern look isperfect, they combined a more hittable, fogiving design into the tiniest of blades. its ultra impressive. once again. these will stand time, but alas i tink the TS oem evolution makes them obslete pretty quickly, TS def make a great line of x blade and the newest is def the best..
so... there is no mre blades to be had. theres no point, the OBVIOUS MISSING LINK I CANH ERA UALL SCREAM is where the hell is yr mizuno!!!!!!!!
yes..........................
thast been said before.

ive tried, i have and the ebst ones i could muster, the mp-68s.
didnt do it for me. yup impossible as it seems they are not my scene. i was a bit disconcerted , bec i cud easily seee lots of mizzzys, but alas they didnt suit. the srixons suited infniitly better. similar shape , srixons were muchbetter.
the engines that drive all theseare ALL ns prototypes for mthe uber easy ORA to the molto molto ichiban heavy mofos the c10s and 2 fi4s.
there isnt really anything that feels as dynamic as NS , and asmuch as ilove the shimada, the ns range just have this extra"thing" the X factor, the shafts are def NOTHING alike. thast hte beuty of them there really is a humongous differnce in steel, t
'thats just my thang"
these blades account for 75+% of play time. but idont feel complete unless ihave some "just in casers"
the cavity backs
so heres my choices

the miura cb1006-- and cb3002 TTmonacco shafted ,low launch, heavy , easiest best feeling cavities ive ever used. and the clubs ive hit my 3 lowest scores with in japan clubs. prob............... the only set i will NEVER sell . imight swap the shafts but as far as playability goes, just so simple, not for everyone the shape will not suit most but those it does, they easily become a one horse cowboy. not released to the US u see a heap of top girls here playing these bec they can be shafted with anything and theuy play so damn well.
the nthe yamaha tours.. nothing need saying htere. and the yamah non tour form 2009, on spongy wet grass, oh brother point shoot!

so it would seem my bag has ended its run.......
perhaps the titleist vg 3 might be a consdieration later in life, these are destined for greatness, and i havnt hit them ,but iknow just by the shape they are tops.

its a sad day.

Just out of curiosity, Stew. Have you hit the onoff forged? It's not exactly the type of irons you would be looking at, but if you mention the vg3s, you have to try the onoff forged.
