PRGR’s EGG Spoon rules Golf Digest’s Distance Rankings!

  • Categories: GTI Exclusive, Golf News, Golf Opinion, Industry Insider, Japanese Golf, Product Reviews, Reviews
  • Posted on: May 15th, 2010 by: gocchin

I must have dedicated at least 4 or 5 posts on this blog to PRGR’s EGG Spoon including my original review here and an updated video review earlier this year here. That’s how long the Spoon has been around and how good it actually is.  Golf Digest Japan’s June issue had a feature called 200y  [...]

My Golf Magazine Rant…

  • Categories: Golf News, Golf Opinion, Polls, Reviews, Special Promotions, Uncategorized
  • Posted on: March 11th, 2010 by: Tourspecgolfer

I subscribe to most major golf publications to try to stay on top of marketing in the U.S golf industry. Its actually quite affordable right now as Golf Digest is offering 12 issues for only 12 bucks a year, can’t go wrong with that deal and it beats buying it for full value at the [...]

Epon AF-302 Forged Iron Review

  • Posted on: December 28th, 2009 by: Tourspecgolfer

When you think of Epon Irons think of the AF-302, it’s their flagship model designed for the mid to low handicap player.  Made by Endo in Niigata Japan it all starts off with a stick of S20C soft steel then forge pressed multiple times to the perfect hardness rating of HRB80.
I have had quite a [...]

Playing the Public Course in Japan… worth your yen.

  • Categories: Golf News, Golf Opinion, Japanese Golf, Reviews
  • Posted on: August 25th, 2009 by: gocchin

While there are nearly 2500 golf courses in Japan, many are high end private club establishments with prices per round that are out of reach from the recreational golfer like you and I.  Even the course I live on Kiminomori Golf Community is pricey at over 20,000yen, regular price per round (about 215USD). As a [...]
