Bridgestone J715

[guymsullaway]

I heard that Bridgestone came out with a JDM driver that was a smaller head design than the US released one....anyone know where I can order one? Also, I would like to be able to order it without the Fubiki, or maybe head only....

It's the B5. I ordered mine through Rakuten. You can find a lot of shaft options. What was going to cost me $675 on tourspec, I got for just over $500 on Rakuten.

I no longer see the B5 or the customization options on Rakuten...but I'm probably blind

Always try rakuten first!!!!

Hello any updates? Thank you

I'm really liking this driver, the more I use it the more it grows on me. Feel is great, comparable with the i15 which I loved, but a little more sound to it. Nothing too loud but a nice little ting. Def a lower launching head. I'm probably gonna change shafts to get my launch up a little bit. Beautiful head to look down at and I think it's pretty forgiving.

anyone know what the deal is with finishes? as in most pics online show gloss black... Ive run across one thats matte.... is the matte black JDM only?

[BigPapy]

I'd prob say custom if it truly is matte. All that I've seen are gloss.

I currently play a j715 B5 and love it! One of the sleekest, best looking drivers I've played. Had my local club fitter put a little hot melt in it and the sound is incredible. Impressed with Bridgestone's quality of product and how it stands the test of time. Also have a set of j015 cb's that I am alternating between some mp 15's. Once again, very impressed with the quality. Not quite as ghost like on feel like mizuno, but I find you can feel the ball on the club face a little more with the j015's. Just thought I would share my experience for anyone looking for info.

 

Thanks!
