Does anyone know anything about Maruman? They don't seem to have much of a presence here in the US, but I inherited a Maruman iron set that I've used pretty much my whole golf life. They're Maruman Verity-U's, I'm guessing about 10-15 years old.

My uncle actually bought a new set of Maruman irons a couple months ago and spent around 1000, so they must be decent...?

Any thoughts?

I found a picture online of my irons: http://www.phing.com/listing/152454-...GOOD-CONDITION

I was attending the PGA show in Orlando a few weeks ago and came across their booth.   Their head of sales ran me through their line, apparently they are HUGE on the Japanese tour and are trying to push into the US Market.  Maruman's rep was telling me that they never sponsor golfers on the Japanese tour, yet, a big percentage of the pros out there use them.  Very interesting talking to their reps, very nice guys.

They had a 3way booth: Maruman, Royal Collection (another Japanese brand trying to push into US) and Diadora Golf shoes.  Very interesting setup.


Cheers.

The Royal Majesty Series are very high tech and they are stronger in loft . Asian particularly Japanese love it . They are not cheap ! Ofcoz they offer normal series which are also high tech but at affordable price.

Recently the company was bought by Some south Korean golf company. Builds one of most beautiful clubs in the world. Especially popular among old people like Honma. I have seen this rich dude talking about his Maruman full set and he said he paid more than $30,000 and his driver was plated in gold and had some beautiful classic Japanese art on it. Very popular over in Asia especially in korea and japan

    • Day 332: worked on my grip while watching pasta boil. Then did some mirror work later at night.
    • You start pushing forward at P2. You start visibly moving forward at P3. Waiting until the top is way too late, yeah.
    • 100%. I've been guilty my entire time golfing of trying to fit everything imaginable into the .25 second downswing. Sometimes I think it's partly influenced by my backswing length and that if things were slightly longer on the way back, they'd be better synced up on the way down. I also kind of lack a transition. Was doing the practice swing drill today a decent bit where I was feeling like as the club got to the top, the feel of the weight was shifting me forward and initiating the fall into the lead leg. I loved this drill before for this reason and because I need to stop thinking of the golf swing as backswing and downswing.
    • The bold is very late.
    • Angle isn't perfect. Just found my TST alignment stick, so will make sure video angles are better in future videos. Focus right now is lower body and lower body only. If I make a single post here for the foreseeable future about anything NOT lower body focused, I need to be slapped (I will make an occasional note on unrelated stuff I might be seeing). It's not perfect by any means, but there is a decent bit I like about this swing. Lower body is definitely better than it was pre-TST meetup instruction. There are some things that are tough to see I think I'm doing better like where pressure is going into the trail foot and keeping that trail hip internally rotated. Need to keep feeling those. I think I do my best work when the trail leg keeps its flex on the backswing or at most loses a degree. Keeping the flex (but obviously not adding any) seems to help feel like I'm loading the right glute and to keep the hip internally rotated. Not totally sold on this though. I think my work on adding flow during the TST COVID-19 lessons really helped even though its been quite some time. Shift -> rotate -> shift -> rotate. I just need more out of my hips. It's not drastic, but it's everything. I think it will help sync up a lot regarding my swing and more power to boot. Unrelated note: I hate my negative spine angle.
