Very good looking line up and lots of buzz at the PGA Show. With all the interest in Ryo Ishikawa and the pop of colors this line has, we picked up more buzzz over Yonex than ever.

The new shaft is the real deal. One of the best feeling shafts I have hit. I hit it in the 380 at demo day in true ho spirit I traded for a 380 with a devotion on thursday with someone that had one in their bag. Still love the club but it was even better with the new yonex offering. So much so that I went back and talked to yonex about swapping the devotion for theirs.

They do. I think the staff bag is the same. For whatever reason it was there was a buzzz about the brand.

traffic at demo day when I was there and good looking gear.

That white staff bag is sick!  Good to see Yonex getting out there, their products are top notch and their products have definitely helped my game in 2011.

the 380cc is an excellent club and the stock shafts are of great quality.  Nice to see them receiving some attentions but still won't sell just like srixon

The driver looks like the old mizuno MP-001, which was a great driver.

Zak,

Any idea how much the heads are going to be? I heard him mention the prices with the shafts but did not hear anything about just component pricing.

I think iron sets will be around $1400 USD. I don't have component pricing.

The white staff bag is good, orange not so much.

That zero iron would be perfect for playing links golf here in the UK. I saw it Ryo's bag in the 2010 British Open. Any idea where i could buy the head only but not at ridiculous price from a Japanese importer?

ezone irons remind me of an updated mizuno iron....lol. Yonex has always made quality stuff. They have zero North American distribution though.

God Bless

I don't know the exact heads but they were doing a sweet spot demo in their booth with their heads compared to a few other manufactures. Basically to show how close to dead center the yonex was and how off the other manufactures were from center. I am guess one of the headache is the 380 and the other 420 but don't quote me on that.

Ezone 380 or Bridgestone J40 430 -- Which is better?

Thank you for the pics, I love yonex stuff, 9 clubs from them in my bag.  The eZone cb looks a little different from last years.  Anyone know what was changed?
