Nice set up mate. Didn't know Grant came over the ditch, he made a set of irons for me a few years ago.

Thanks- not only did he come over, he was wearing a Waratah's jersey when I picked up the woods!

Welcome
And great bag. I was wondering why the parallel shaft KBS shafts VS .355 taped and did he bore them out? I understand the hybrids there are no options but the Others there were.

Apparently he used the parallels to gain a higher flight and extra spin- there were modifications made to fit the shafts however I'm not sure what they were specifically.

Well, thanks, I was wondering why go to the extra work of boring the heads or turning down the shafts (no a great idea on steel shafts) when they offer the correct shaft. He probably used Tour 90s vs Tours. I just recently changed to KBS shafts, well, while I have it listed, my wedges are not KBS shafts just yet, probably Thrusday. And did testing of all the KBS, I got better performance (for me) out of the Tour 90 than Tour, but best from C Taper. But like we always say, get fit, what works for one will not work for all.

Ultimately I'm not in a position to judge what someone else is playing with because what fits them might not fit me and vis a versa. Great looking clubs - I have the F11 driver and woods with Maltby Distance Master shafts that I was fit for this year - am really enjoying the results of that fitting.

Play well and enjoy!

I change my grips almost as regularly as I change underwear! No, I didn't install them myself and so far they have been great- really tacky and the color is super bright.

They are definitely the Tours, the Tour 90s were too light. I noticed last night that the C Tapers have been released in 0.370"- I have always loved the finish of those shafts and will have to hit up Grant to see if he can make them work for me!

Great looking set! I'm very jealous :) How much success have you had with the combination of the Titleist 910H and the KBS shaft? I would take that combination in a heartbeat!

The combo is awesome, very accurate and best of all it offers a really nice progression through to the irons. The KBS is heavy for a hybrid weighing in at approx. 110 grams with the custom paint finish. The stock made for Diamana Kai'li although long lacked the accuracy of the KBS and there's nothing inspiring about a "made for" off the rack shaft.

Fantastic setup there mate.

How have the Geotech wedges been for you? I'll admit, I've been eyeing them pretty fiercely lately (while trying to find someone to do custom stamping for me).
