Miura Giken? Rakuten?

I'm assuming that's price per club??? Because if that is the entire set you need to buy their entire inventory and put it up on BST.

I've heard they are the same club but don't really have any confirmation on that. Looks like a TB to me. And it is a good price per club unless it's a piece of crap shaft.

Miura Giken is more expensive or the same price as US version, certainly not cheaper. Something wrong here, just not sure if it is a website problem or some other issue. A legitimate set of these will run you over $1000 no matter where you get them.

rakuten dealers are legit, including that one. they just sell at volume/on discount vs the other sources. pisses off the guys trying to hold premium margins, but there isnt much for customer service/follow-up/communication. clubs will be legit however.

Miurism SB-02 look to be the same head as the Tournament Blade.

MB 5003 are definitely not the same. You can buy the MB 5003 heads in golf shops in Japan.

but since you're doubting me, here's the info... it's basically the same. the SB 02 is not.

Neither look to be the same club.

The muscle back line on the MB 5003 is curved, the SB-02 is straight.

If you think the Tournament Blade and the MB 5003 are the same, then you should buy them.

New TB (MB-001) and 5003 look to be quite similar, not the former TB or SB-02.

curved muscle, sure. but look at the dimensions. i think you are discussing an aesthetic difference. hence, "nearly"

Nope, wrong. The curved muscle is not aesthetic at all. IMO the straight muscle of the TB is its Achilles heel.

Also why the similar high curved muscled Yururis, Vegas and SB1s all feel less clicky, are longer (within same specd & shafted clubs) and are better clubs than the TBs. The former almost as good as Yonex eZones, the TBs bringing up the rear.
