Taylor Made (Japan) Burner Forged Irons
One of my favorite golf websites out there is TourSpecGolf and the associated blog called GolfToImpress.com. I’ve always been a big fan of the Japanese market for golf since there is so much stuff that you can’t get in the States. The club companies have whole different line-ups over there, and while some models may eventually make it accross the ocean, most never see American soil. That is, unless you got to TourSpecGolf and buy them for yourself! My biggest annoyance with this is that the japanese market gets so many gorgeous clubs to choose from! The forgings that come from Japan are second to none. Go ahead and visit www.tourspecgolf.com and take a look for yourself!

The guys at GolfToImpress posted the pics. I highly recommend you head on over there and take a look. Here’s a sampling:
