Expensive, uncommon but good

Hi all,

You might think that I have nothing better to do but I need to have some information to answer to Indonesia friend of mine. " Which is the expensive and good brand of golf equipment in the market ". He say he do not want those common brand like TM, Callaway .. etc in the market.

He like it to be unique, well known but uncommon people will use because of it prices. He stress to know on golf clubs, bag, gloves, shoe, belts, golf shirt or pant .. etc. You guess it, he wanted to buy ..

Would you guy give me those brands name and I do a re search on it. Thx

HONMA or MIURA

Ikasu irons & wedges
Krank driver
Zen putter

All can be found at BFG. Those are uncommon but they sure are fantastic quality.

Pak, based on my limited knowledge, can try this website, www.tourspecgolf.com for exotic, branded clubs.

For putter wise, I'd say ZEN rocks!

@Asahi: if my memory serves me right, tourspecgolf products can be commonly found in Surabaya... Item like Epon, etc...

Is it?
Surabaya is happening man!

nakashima driver , woods , hybrid , iron n wedge , and scotty putter

Honma used to be like by Indon.
Especially the 5 star shaft, cost about S$50K a set.
The Generals love to have that sets.
But now it seems to lost it prestige.
However, now the mainland Chinese seem to like it.
I was told, Honma was own by the Chinese.

heres good and uncommon stuff in Spore:

Epon irons. Raja Golf is auth distributor in jkt.
Scratch 1018 wedges. Can order online from US.
Gold's Factory putters.

Honma is common in indon, u know...

i have to say that if they really like unique stuff, the ikasu irons and wedges are fantastic... if your indon friend thinks it is too cheap, i'm sure you can ask DGman to get a custom made set for an insane price... haha... but WMF has got it right... the items sold at BFG are extremely rare and limited be it in asia / usa...

apparels got for Blood Shift

HONMA

MIURA....

make his own irons - his name can be the brand - add diamonds for bling bling factor and platinum for perimeter weighting.

we can design in whatever way he wants using a ready forged cast head.

the cost - US$3500 per head...cost of a set 3i to PW - US$28,000.

we can ask aerotech to make a special gold-fiber - i estimate US$2,500 per shaft. thats another US$20,000.

Gold or platinum ferrule - US$250 each - thats US$2,000

Iomic can put his name on the grips - thats US$80 each - US$640

cost of the set - US$50,640 excluding workmanship and analysis.

For Zen putter - i am sure we can make a putter with Platinum or Gold with diamonds or other precious stones - going by weight its about US$60 per gram. the block starts at 500g or US$30,000...we add US$2500 for setup and milling and the putter should come in at US$38,000 with a crocodile Grip Master and a Hermes quality crocodile headcover. we can do a Rhodium coat to ensure hardness of the putter.

so for 8 pcs of iron and one putter the price tag should round up to US$88,000 or just under S$113,000.

its doable if the guy got this kind of money- delivery time 6 months from time of deposit.

Now we are talking rare!!!!

Wow... lotsa bling bling...

wow... remind me to never tell DGman if i ever win toto / 4d, i might spend everything in 10 mins.... to talk to him abt rare sets, i need to win the mega lotto in US... first prize of USD 250 million

he can use the gold dust n mix in Zambuka for after golf drinks at the bar.

If this project is a go, I'm in! It should be so much fun designing your own stuffs, although I will hate those bling bling diamonds and gold...

i personally dont think the US$88k clubs will play any better than a well bespoke set..

but you know when you have a lear jet, you just have to be different from the rest of the folks flying commercial out there.

It doesn't play any better physically... But it is a totally different matter if ego is involved.

Hi guys,

I have written down all information provided on golf clubs. How can I forgot that BF can custom build a set for him. I will pass this information to him too but real diamond or gold might over killed .. He is not the Chinese - Chinese type lah ( still young but family rich ) ...

How about golf apparel, bag .. etc ?

Thx

That one has to be a WIN WIN Bag...... Preferably a red dragon

Hiyah, if the almighty one let me strike half million, I am sure to go down and get ikasu wedges/irons, kajiki shaft, more Zen putter, Win Win bag and more clubs head covers.

Now, gotta head to Yishun blk 102 to buy toto.
Hehe

Golf shirt... Giordano... that's blardy uncommon hehehe.... joke aside, I think Bally has some nice golf apparels

that reminded me... someone posted an LV cartbag some time back... that would be one tough bag to match.

this one is 'ai ci, ai gui, ai lak liap ni'.
