I ordered XXIO 11 irons from Golf Partner in Tokyo, Japan on the night of July 23rd. They arrived about noon today here in SW Minnesota. I expected it would take maybe 2 weeks and it took only 5 1/2 days. Pretty remarkable when it sometimes takes 3-4 days for a letter to reach the Twin Cities and it's only about 170 miles there. The XXIO's look great, just a few minor marks on the faces (shop wear). They hadn't been hit at all.
