The mill grind soles on those TS4s are 
. Really nice looking stuff. Even the KE4 Max’s are punching above their weight.

I’m still waiting on my Ping G425 Max 5-wood I ordered with the Tensei Orange AV shaft…….since mid August. It must be on the last cargo ship waiting outside L.A.

My local dealer told me yesterday that PING is not releasing anything new until they catch up on current demand. Could be 2023. He said G710 is out of production as well. He said Callaway and TM stocked up on heads and can deliver new orders but PING is so meticulous about weight/shaft/grip/lie/loft/etc;. that they don't stock up like that. He said he visited the factory and feels that nobody is building clubs at a quality level equal to them.

That sucks.

Yeah, I might have to get something else before then. I'm thinking I want to experiment with graphite shafts in my irons in 2022 and I don't think I'd want to wait until the season is over, if even then. 
What weight are you looking for?

I'm currently using PX 6.0 so probably 100g or more. I like the PX and they haven't been bothering me yet but I've had the itch to start experimenting before they do. Have been thinking about stuff like Recoil 110, Steelfiber 110, Accra 100i, Catalyst 100 etc.
Xcaliber will have a 105 gram shaft in the rapid taper next year. It’s a great shaft and the total package.

Yeah, I've been following along on some of those threads. That's definitely one I've kept my ear to the ground on but I kind of lost track on when it might be available. I need to be following at the right time when Popeye starts taking orders at a good price. 
I'd definitely be interested in those. Mr. Arthur built the Saber Tour Vector, which is one of my all time favorites. I still have a couple of Cleveland Launcher woods (13* Ti and 17* og Launcher) with Saber Tour Vector 75 that I could put in the bag anytime and hit the crap out of. For many years, my regular group called the 13* Launcher TI the "cheater club" because it was such a cannon. 
I’ve got a 105 gram prototype rapid taper and loving it. It’s a very stable shaft that could very well be a “game changer.” I’m seeing the same distance (40 degree lower temperature) but tighter dispersion than by rapid taper 95 shafts.

They do sound really promising. If you hear anything about them becoming available, especially if there is a deal, please let me know. I'd definitely be interested in them, even if they don't tone down the graphics just a smidge. 
I’m trying to get Popeye to do run in the flat black. They look awesome!

That would be right in my wheelhouse!

JoeHatesSnow I don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for, but I've had my eye on these for a long time. I just don't think I'll have the swing for them anymore. I used to love them in a driver. I have 1 here somewhere tipped for a 3 wood, if you're interested.
