I remember reading somewhere that the new Nike Mojo ball has been completely redesigned for 05, with a "Karma" ball (coloured red, purple or orange I think) comes free with every dozen balls....
Interesting....

it'll get you a catalog (in English) that has Hogan's new drivers, Fairway woods & a couple of new iron models.
Hold my Beer. I'm going to hit a high fade over that tree....
This may qualify as a 2004 product, but I can personally attest to the feel and forgiveness of the new Odyssey White Steel putters. Mmmmm. Pure butter.
I have my eyes on the new Bridgestone J33 Combo irons, coming out in March. I'm also toying with getting them fit with True Temper Tour Concept shafts. I'm getting to try these in my wedges first, and if they are as great as they are touted to be, I'll make the full plunge.

I hope they come out with a few more styles in white steel...
I was informed by a golf shop who were selling some Cleveland TA7's cheap that a new version of this club was due early 2005. They did not seem to know much more than this, but this was why they were selling the clubs at a reduced price, so they said.
Though they came out in late '04 the new CG1 blades from clevelan are super sweet. I was very temtped to ditch my TA5's for them (damn student loans). Best blades I have ever hit hands down. I was a huge fan of Hogans and still am but i think with the CG1's Cleveland has a winner.
The CG1's are sweet clubs. Personally, I like most of the "better" Cleveland irons. They are cheaper than most comparable brands and I believe they have good feel. The TA1's (if you can still find them) are also dirt cheap. Something like $200 or $300 bucks for 3-PW. Brand new. But, I love my TA7 Tours. Less offset than the CG1's. Plus, I don't get numb fingers when I hit one a little less than square. But the CG1's are a nice club.

I agree but how can the CG1's have more offset the the TA7's even the tour model TA7 should have more offset. I mean the CG1's are blade and have zero offset. Even the cleveland site says so
my TA1's have been kind of a letdown, i think i've lost like three clubs in distance, and my accuracy is totally off , compared to my TM supersteels, since i recently got a pass for unlimited range balls till april, i'm going to take both sets to the range, and see which one does better, that one i'll use this season, if its my supersteels, then i'll have all summer to master my TA1s, i just see no advantage to using the TA1's right now, we'll see what happens

Yes TA1's also rule. And I never found the CG1's be be hard one the hands on off centre hits.
actually mahalleday, collegegolfer is right on this one. Cleveland's iron comparison chart is wrong. Here are the specs for the Tours and the CG1's. From about the 5-iron throughout the set, the TA7 Tours have LESS offset than CG1's. The CG's definately don't have the least offset, I think even the TA2's have the same...
Hmmmmm.. How odd for the chart to be wrong. I also find it odd the thier blades would have more offset then their other stuff, though the long irons did have less, it was in teh short irons that they had more than the TA7 tours. interesting. Thanks for making me aware of this.
Callaway makes the ugliest irons ever. I'm syre there are millions the disagree but come on. Those x-18's are gross looking. I like companies the go more plain looking like mizuno, Hogn, or Cleveland. Thinner toplines and soles and no colour.

Why make the game harder for yourself if there is equipment out there that makes it easier.
I agree with that but why do "game improvement" irons have to look so awful. and I find i hit "players" clubs better then clubs designed to help people hit the ball better anyways.
It would also be nice to see Callaway made a nice players club. Something simple and understated in it looks.
Rumours are coming out of Callaway about a set of blade irons to be released later this year. Phil got the thumbs up on helping with the design....
We'll see what those look like.

I heard that as well but they will proabaly be for lefty's only like the 731 pm's all blades look good becaise they are all the same with different logos on them.
I hope they come out with a few more styles in white steel...
Does anyone know if the White Steel #2 is out and if you have a pic of it to show me, that would be great. tgw.com has it in the list of putter but has no image of it, so it does exist. http://www.tgw.com/customer/category...TEGORY_ID=5205 this is the link to it. I was thinking of trying it out since I have a Ping Zing g2i and I was considering trying it to see if I like it better.
Hi:
I'm currently looking to buy a new set of blade iron, just wondering if any new blade iron coming out from Titleist or TaylorMade. If anyone has any information, i will be very appreicate if you can share some info.

The whole golf scene will be buzzing in a couple of weeks after the PGA show in Orlando. At that point, you might choose to get one of the newer offerings or get a "last year's" model for a substantial discount. Titleist recently came out with newer models, but they may have something new. Taylormade comes out with new irons every 37 minutes, so you can count on them having something new. Don't overlook Mizuno as a great choice in irons, and Bridgestone is going to be making a major push into the US market in 2005. Cleveland will be having new models, too. I would wait a couple of weeks before making any decision, if I were you.

Hi:
