I have been encouraged to add more pics. So, here you go.

 

Cheers, Jeff.

You my friend have a ton of sexiness in those irons and wedges!

[farmer]

I've always thought Epon makes very nice looking irons. You have proven me to be correct. My only concern would be to actually stick one the dirt.

[staysober for golf]

Cool Set!

[Leftymoose]

Those Epons are beautiful for sure

[DE-ILLINI]

Great looking set. I really like the wedges and the hybrid.

How do the shimada tour wedge shafts hold up to full shots? Are they lighter than your iron shafts?

[GolfCrazy303]

Gorgeous looking irons!

[PeanutsDaddy]

Handsome set up. So much goodness. Thank you for sharing.

 

I'd love to hear the story of the headcovers.

 

[Baskil]

Love those wedges! Thanks for posting! Its nice to see different things on here.

[marmaduk]

Thanks guys.

 

I'm not sure of the weight of the Shimada shafts but they hold up well to full shots. CRAZY spin probably due to the combo of the shafts and non-conforming grooves ;)

 

The Ryoma makes one hell of a noise. Literally draws peoples attention on the range.

 

The headcovers are old socks.....literally. My girlfriend told me I should never wear them again so here they stay. 5 grand in clubs and I use old socks as headcovers. lol

 

Most people would be appalled by how I treat my clubs. I see them as the tools that they are. I don't keep them in headcovers so they will get a fair bit of chatter marks. 5w has a beauty of a skymark on it. I do wash them after every round though.

 

Oh, also they have started to patina and fade quite nicely. The face and sole of the clubs are much lighter in colour now.

You should be banned from this site! LOL!

 

That's really good stuff there. I do really envy you. From the driver to the wedges, all awesome.

Anyway, how do you like the egg spoon? The shape is particularly interesting. How does it perform?

[marmaduk]

The Egg is a wonderful and sometimes frustrating club. It's SUPER light and plays that way. I'm fighting a slice with it at the moment and wonder if a little lead tape might help.

[DirtyFool25]

Your collection of golf set is drool worthy!

[vrnyn]

Some of the nicest irons I have seen, great setup!

[Ayoung19]

Those wedges are incredible. Great photos too!

[Leftymoose]

I want those irons and wedges....in LH...freaking beautiful!

[Ben Berube]

I agree, awesoe set up. Worth all of us peaking at them. How did you get the black shafts in those Manta's? I have a Tour Issue Manta CS but came with a chrome shaft and was wondering ifthere is any black shafts available.

That, my friend, is electrical tape. lol

[andrieddle]

Love the irons sir!

I currently have a 16 club bag. Ryoma D1, brand new Ryoma F3 and F5, Maruman Shuttle 7Wood, A-grind 4hybrid, 4-pw Epon 302s, Yururi Tour 50,55,60, and a Tm Ghost Manta.

 

The patina on the Copper 302's is looking fantastic. Aging quite nicely. Those Yururi's are ninjas around the green too. Sneaky good.

 

I'm experimenting with switching out between a 23° 4 iron, a 22° 4 hybrid, and a 21° 7 Wood. Depending on the course and my game the Driver and Sand wedge can be swapped out too. The 4 iron to be honest is next to useless for me so the question is 4 hybrid or 7 wood. Although in a perfect world I could use all clubs. 4 iron carrying around 200 yards, 4 hybrid caring around 210 yards, and the 7 wood caring around 220 yards.

 

I am absolutely in love with the 7 wood. I played the best golf hole of my life with it. Downhill dogleg to the right Par5. I smashed my driver 270 yards over bunkers to land on the fairway that had to be no wider than 20 yards. I then had 210 yard carry to the green that was surrounded by a creek. From the creek to the Green was only a couple yards of rough so it was 210 yards full carry. Perfect contact landed it 10 yards short of the pin to roll out to 10 feet. Nailed the putt for eagle.

[MGPT]

What made you revert to using a driver? Is the Ryoma as good as the nuts over at TSG make out?

[ImChrisBosh]

Wow that finish!

[DE-ILLINI]

Patina on the irons looks fantastic.

[beluga99]

Clubs and pics are incredible. Thanks for sharing. Love those irons.
