    [Currently gathering dust: Miura CB 2006 irons; Cameron Newport TeI3 putter]
I went for the RC BBD TOUR VS 5W, or whatever they were called. Last year's model. Still love it, and if you find one, I'll bet it's discounted, now that the new edition is out. Great looking club, IMO. Very compact head with a classic shape. It hits straight and long with a textbook flight. Better off the deck than off the tee. I hit my 5W about 190m with tight dispersion. It's just glorious to hit. One of those clubs I love to pull out of the bag. Probably my second favorite club after my putter, although I do love my Miuraism short irons as well right now.

If you look, you can find a post I put up a while back comparing the RC to several other contenders.

I agree totally. Sometimes 245 other times 265! I use the Egg Spoon, not what I would consider a scoring club just a missile launcher in my hopes to roll on at those longer Par 5's.

    NS pro
from all my experiments
the original egg is still the overall distance king.

from the tee the tour edge exotics gets it.
the best compact players fw is the RC 304p
the best over all easy to use good in every dept is the yamjaha v and the rc bbb type h form a few rys ago

from the turf i liked the yamaha v the egg spoon new model and the birth black bullett.
the black bullett was a very nice fw. didn t take off OS but i assure u its one ofdthe best fws to hit
all these are slightly older models. i havnt hit the newer ones bec these are just so good.

the RC blader-X has is the other one id jump at to get in my bag. love the look of this fw.

yamaha tour 10*--crazy cb50 noir 8.2

kasco fd 12.8*--diamana stinger X
