I've been reading this forum for several months now. Not one mention of Yonex (ok maybe one or two). What is the deal? Are they that under exposed? Is it the Monty hatred factor?

I read an article in Golf World saying Tadd Fujikawa was using a Cyberstar driver and fwy woods and forged irons from Yonex. I just don't see any in stores around me; otherwise, I would definitely try them out.

As far as I know, Yonex is a major tennis equipment manufacturer. Perhaps they are expanding to golf as well?

ive always wanted a set of the Yonex ADX Tour Forged irons, but they are soooo expensive. i do have a Yonex ADX Pro forged putter (Mickelson model) though. its more of a collectors item than a gamer though

Well damn, I've only known them for making tennis equipment, which is also pretty damn expensive. :(

Hey Rocket I have a set 3-aw but they are lefty.Alao have the 8802 knock off that yonex made for Phill as well as the rekin 3 wood he had but not the driver.Also have the 56 and 60 PM yonex wedges all were forged and real nice feel to them.Also have the rekin 10's that he and Hoch switched to before he went to Titliest.Yonex allways made outstanding forged clubs but they were way overpriced even back then.
