Chuck,
What are you pushing these days for Irons and Drivers? Do you have a preference between the Hakusa and Nakashima irons? What about the Nakashima driver? Is it still the rad or is there a new kid

Nothing has outperformed the Nak heads legally. They are at the true max for ball speed and the lowest spinning heads out there.
As for the irons, for the most part, heads are heads, the payoff comes in the shaft. But in terms of pure sexiness, the Hakusa's own the Nak iron heads.

Ahhhh, good to be back. I literally have to stop all golf related activities from November thru January, or I go insane because I can't golf.
ANYWAY.... I'm not a gear head, but i've tried my fair share of heads. But the bottom line for me in terms of drivers was LOFT. I wasn't using enough. I went to an Naka NP-1 10.5* with a OEM Matrix HD-6 X-Stiff (ss 110mph) and added 20+ yards. Playing the 9.5* NP was jus too little loft. Excess sidespin, not enough launch angle.
The ONLY other head that comes close to the Naka NP-1 or HTEC is the Adams 9015d. I have a 10.6 true loft head with a Altus LT shaft. Lower flight compared to my other setup and I take it out in soft conditions or heavy wind.
Irons... I could care less. If it has a PX 6.0 shaft with a player's CB, im happy. I don't play blades because, well, its not worth it to me. I'm STILL gaming rac LT2s. I've tried them all. Nothing makes a noticible difference.
