My club fitting experience in Japan

In our forums, our members have been reacting to an interesting thread where a member went to Japan to get fit for clubs. WRXer ‘DrizzyRNS’ has just got back from from the far east and has written up exactly how his experience went down, which you can read below:

“I just got back from Japan and ended up going with a set of Miuras from Euroz Golf. I used Golf-In-Japan to help setup the appointment, they booked me one with Double Eagle in Ebisu and Euroz Golf in Roppongi. Unfortunately despite noting that I was a lefty ahead of time, I arrived for my appointment at Double Eagle and was informed that they did not have any left-hand clubs to sample. They were very apologetic and offered to check with some of their other locations, but I was on bit of schedule crunch so I had to pass on their offer.

I had a really good experience at Euroz; they are an authorized Miura dealer as well as Itobori. They have an english speaking fitter on site, Yuga, and he was fantastic! Had a left-handed Miura ready to go for me to hit alongside a few other JDM options. He was very patient and even insisted I try a handful of different shafts to make sure I felt comfortable with the setup before committing. Would highly recommend their shop to anyone looking for Miuras. Being a lefty, I was limited to the CB-8101 and MB-8501. I ended up with a combo set 5-7 CB and 8-P MB!

Some things to note:

For my lefties, be prepared to be limited in your options if you’re going for JDMs.
If you end up going with Miuras know that there are no stock options to purchase, they are all custom. The turnaround time I was quoted was 1.5-2 months. Unfortunately as of October 2025, Japan Post has halted shipments to the US due to the tariff situation and shipment duty changes. Yuga at Euroz told me that they would be happy to hold my irons for me as a courtesy until I was able to come back to Japan or until the restrictions were lifted.
He also mentioned that he could ship them to another country if I had someone that could forward them to me from there. I have a friend in Canada who is willing to do that for me, but fingers-crossed that the restrictions are lifted by the time my irons are ready to ship.
It’s a little tricky to setup appointments with shops even via email, but Golf-In-Japan handled for me and made it really easy. Not sure if they get a kickback from the shops they partner with, but it seems they have relationships with most of the major stores in Tokyo. If you have a specific shop in mind, I think they’d be able to help set that up.

Happy to answer whatever questions I can for others looking to get fitted in Japan!”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
