That's why I got the stand bag. Could not bear to bring the autographed bag to the course.

Below is the lefty Napa I am getting from Yamada. No idea what finish it will be in but likely the same. As mentioned by Joe Kwok in another thread about the Yamadas, hopefully they are as soft as they say it is

I really like your bag setup....and love the look of the Lefty CBs and Blades... I haven't built any of those yet for LH golfers so this is the first I have seen them....

They look a lot better than the RH CB202's and Blades... I'm jealous ...
The RH 202's and Blades look amazing, but hte LH irons have an aggressive look to them that is amazing.

Beautiful Yamada.

Nice set up. Just wanted to interject on the putter issue. I also game the 350 with a backup and I like it the best.

The small blade helps you to focus on every putt and I couldn't find anything with the same feel. I tried several Scotty Camerons including aCirca 62 number 1, Bettinardi, Ping Redwood, Kia Ma, TP Mills, original TM TP.

The wedge shaft contributes to the softer feel as well.

wow is all i can say, now u have tempted me to get more gear to add to my miura collection

I like the fact that the lefty clubs have the same offset through out except for the 3 iron. The blades as mentioned are on order and should be here soon. Wife is a lefty as well and she will be gaming the CBs, only with graphite shafts. Got this for her.

The lefty KM350 has no cavity back and I am in love with it. So much so that I am buying napa style putters only.

Below are pics of the lefty putter and comparisons to the right handed version.

You should.

[golfasaurus]

Finally, my Yamada napa-style putter is in. The smoked finish is especially sweet. :)

 

[JayLefty]

Amazing bag my lefty friend. Those clubs look and have to feel amazing.

[golfasaurus]

Thanks. I have a set of blades done for me by Mr Miura. Have not had a chance to put it in.

Wow. That lefty KM350 looks great. I have talked to the guys in Vancouver, but what's the best way to get custom Miura stuff? I am interested in getting some production wedges with higher swing weights.

Considering the Miura driver. Have you hit one?

[Guia]

Very, very nice setup. I wish I could afford.

If you need production wedges with high swing weights, you probably need to play heavier shafts or get your fitter to swing weight them to your requirements. Talk to a authorized Miura dealer. They should be able to help you.

The Miura comes in right hand only. I am a lefty but yes, I have hit them. They set up very beautifully. And performs well too.

[justodd]

Thanks for your pics. Now the only putter I like more than my own is yours. I can learn to putt left handed right?

[golfasaurus]

For sure. I think being able to swing both sides (driving or putting) does help improve the stroke.
I learned to hit righty just so I can try more clubs.

[TigerStrong]

You're a pimp!!! What's your handicap?

[golfasaurus]

I play off 9. I figured since I may not become scratch. Why not look scratch at least. LOL.

But on a serious note, I do enjoy the irons a lot. The new year resolution is to work on some strength training to get longer.

 

BTW, I just got my custom Miura bag tag today. My name is done using a wire cut machine. Pretty cool. There is a limit of 7 characters so could not put more.

 

[Cut Off 6-iron]

WOW THAT YAMADA PUTTER IS GORGEOUS!

Be right back, gotta change my pants..

[golfasaurus]

Yup. I like the Yamada too. At the moment, I switch between the Miura and the Yamada. There is a backup for both putters.

[Ray Jackson]

Please tell me you don't have lead tape on those irons.....sacralige!

[golfasaurus]

hahaha. The lead tape has since been removed.

[Ray Jackson]

I am getting Baby Blades built as we speak with lightweight (80g) shafts which have increased my swing speed and carry distance to a place I never thought I would get too, so to solve the swingweight issue we have gone with Winnlite grips which are only 26g each rather than a 50g which is more normal. Thank god your lead tape has gone!!!

[macglock]

That staff bag is great. Clubs aren't bad either

I was playing with a D6 swing weight on the irons then and didn't want to change to light weight grips. Thus, the lead tape.

Hi Stan,

Looks like I will be moving the family over to Singapore before the end of Q2. Will come by and see you so we can fit me for a set of TBs and wedges to replace my MP37s/MPTs.

I still have the Sakamoto wedges you sent me and game them in the X-Forged bag once a month or so.

Looking forward to seeing you,

Milo.

[golfasaurus]

Hi Milo,

Wow...that would be cool. Look forward to seeing you too. Sure, I can fit you with a set. But before you decide on the TBs, I think you should give the baby blades a go.

Stan

[golfasaurus]

Finally found some time to put up pics of some new stuff. Hope you guys enjoy it.

Just got the Spalding Bobby Jones Irons #2 to #9 and the Calamity Jane putter. I was told these are from 1935.
I tried the #9 iron and it seats almost like a sand wedge. Very thin sole and it can open up more than my current lob wedge. Pretty cool.

Some new accessories in the bad.

And the best part for me.
My new blades. They are just sweet. They are about 8 grams heavier than norm.
