The AR-1 is a fine players iron - very nice. But so many of today's player's irons have some technology built into them. This model is like Miura in the sense that it's traditional. But unlike Miura, you will get NO value for it when it's time to sell.

I don't believe Scratch has updated any of the designs in over 7 years.

I agree with all that you have said. It's sad that the resale value on these companies clubs is so low. I got to walk inside the ropes at a practice round on the PGA with a player that uses the Scratch SB irons, and custom wedges that I don't even think they sell. The really cool thing is that scratch doesn't pay players to play their clubs

Irons - Japanese Golf Clubs

Show:

Japan is famous worldwide for its long history of forging steel. When it comes to forging golf clubs and irons specifically, Japan is unmatched in quality and performance. Whether it be muscle backs, cavity backs, or hybrid style performance irons, there is an iron for every type of golfer. Besides forging pure irons from soft carbon steel, Japanese golf brands also use other premium materials like maraging steel, Titanium, asroll steel and premium stainless steel to create optimal performance and ease of use. Intricate designs including CNC Machining, hand grinding, and multi piece designs guarantee you are getting the best selection of irons in golf. Check out TSG's top selling brands like Epon Forged, Miura Giken, Yururi, Yamaha, Tourstage, Romaro, ONOFF, PRGR, Fourteen, Titleist, Callaway and more!

madisonaflac,

My dad owned Hand Craft Golf Co. and I worked there during my teen years. He passed away this past April. It was really nice to read what you wrote about his clubs. I always thought that they were great clubs too (as did some touring pros), but I might be a little biased. :-)

Thanks,

Pat

Long a quality product, Nippon NS Pro shafts entered the USA mainstream about five years ago.

  • Bridgestone irons and wedges offer two NS Pro shafts with no upcharge (NS Modus has upcharge)
  • Titleist has five NS Pro iron shafts available for upcharge
  • Callaway has two NS Pro irons shafts available for an upcharge

Other club manufacturers offer NS Pro items also.

-----------------------------------

For the smaller clubmakers: You just have to find golfers who play them and see what recommendations they give you. Friends might let you try out their versions of the clubs.

Focus, connect and follow through!
