Technically not JDM because they are distributed by an European company (at least the last time I checked). Forged at Kyoei though. Personally I don’t let the distribution thing bother me. Still have a set stored away.

 

 

Stealth HD 9* (MotoreX F3 5R)

Bertha Mini 1.5 12* (Pro Launch Blue 65R)

Apex UW 19* (MMT 70S)

0311XP Gen3 4-PW (Accra 90i S)

Vokey Forged 52.10M (steel)

Vokey Forged Black 58.12K (steel) or WedgeWorks Low Bounce K 58* (steel)

HiToe 64* (steel)
WHP 7CS or Jailbird Versa

2019 TP5x or Tour Response

I've only played Honma, Miura, PRGR, and Mizuno. I prefer the look/feel of PRGR the most, but my friend said that I play "like an uncle" or else I would say Miura is top.

I might pick up a set of Maruman to try out, as well.

The PRGR affection may come more from how their classic blades look at address than anything else.

Wait. What? Where was this heard? I hadn't heard anything like that.

Where is this buy back stemming from?
