andre joubert are you the real Andre Joubert...as in The Rolls Royce Of Fullbacks😂😂 Much love from back home ✌🏿🇿🇦 Never heard of this brand before today.
We have these all over Malaysia, am actually having a fitting next week as did not feel any gains after being fully fitted for the Titleist Cncpt irons. Congrats on bringing a pure quality iron to the channel 👏👏
Thanks for doing a review on Epon. I currently game the AF303 with SteelFiber i95 and totally agree the tolerances on these are unreal. Weight, loft and lie came out exactly the to decimal point of the spec sheet.
My mate bought the 705 about a year and a half ago from Jamie down at forge golf who you know. His handicap went from 13 too 8 in 1 year based on just what you were saying there. Every strike that came off the club was the same. He loves them. These look nice though. Another nice video for the guys to see these top end products. Cheers
Nice looking iron...you looked like you really enjoyed swinging those Ian. Cool looking shaft. First look at the sole I thought, "Mmm turf connection? Maybe too much, like the Miura CB301?" But no.👍 Shame they came in "Righty's" Matty.😊 Always good to see the more more niche products. Keep'em coming TXG.
Just in the process of trading my AF 705 to move into the 305, they feel very good. Will be playing them with a Mitsubishi C6 which is a really nice balance for me.
Damn look at that strike pattern! 🎯 What a gorgeous set of sticks! Didn’t think the wider sole and offset would suit Ian but hard to argue with those results.
Good review guys, always nice to see JDM clubs on the channel. I play 20 year old Yonex ADX Tour irons and they have the exact same features. A CB with a thin topline and a medium width sole (loft is more traditional 6i at 31 deg). Absolutely love the feel, buttery smooth. Yonex's LTB600 graphite shaft has been a mystery. I cant find spec on this shaft. Its early gen graphite shaft at 20years old. The evoulution of graphite shafts would make a great subject for a video or two, hint hint.
Oh yes EPON are fantastic but the price! If you have the chance, please review Honma TW series. They are more affordable and they look real nice. Great video guys.
Just when I thought MIURA were gon be my next investment in Clubs in rocks these guys,I’ve never heard of this brand before. There’s so many other brands being mentioned in the comment section and I’m now confused as to who actually makes the best irons out there. Would you guys say these are better than MIURA in terms of feel that is? Great channel by the way and great info as always. ✌🏿🇿🇦
Just hit these at Club Champion and they blew me away with the speed, distance, and launch/spin consistency. Was getting 1.44 SF on TM4 and carrying them 183 (6 iron), about 8 yards longer than my Miura CB1008’s, and with steeper land angle. Can’t believe I just dropped that much coin on a set of irons, but results were undeniable!
Ian, get them in your bag. I've gamed lots of JDM irons since 2012, and an endo forged iron has always felt the best to me. Great vid. By the way, what shoes are wearing?
Off topic guys. Can you recommend a packed club set for a beginner adult lady golfer. Wilson, Callaway over beginner sets. Tying to get the missus to golf with me and thought a full package set might be a good way to start and if she likes golfing and wants to take it up we can get a custom fit set next year. Thanks lads love all you do :)
Do you guys have any experience with Maltby products? Last year I built my first set of irons with Maltby TE forged heads. They too had the weight progression of the heads like Epon. Any insight on the quality of their product, etc?
So many Japanese brands with quality looking clubs. Wish they were all readily available to try before I buy near me. Love The look of Miura stuff their new proto irons look awesome. Fujimoto irons look well nice also, grindworks and kyoei have great looking stuff too. Oh man I want them all
I'm intrigued...what if someone wanted a longer length club? What would you do to counteract the swingweight getting too high. This is d4.5 at standard length I'm assuming you are hitting
Never heard of this brand before . you obviously like these irons, but how do they survive as a business and whoever are they selling to . However nice to see new products, thanks for your efforts.
My kinda video Ian. Surely if the swingweight is bang on you aren't feeling the 105g. Why don't u bounce up to 112g 105x? You were spanking them get them in the bag
Epon not that popular just like other brand, but the quality and feel was very Good. I have Epon Iron, Driver and Wood 3 set. Until today i use the iron and wood set, haven't change my mind yet to use other brand. I only change the driver. Now currently i use CObra F9 for driver.
Hey Matty whose the right handed mug on tee and why does he keep hitting the same spot on the face? 😂 Well done boys as always, never heard of them, but then again that’s the TXG channel job keeping us informed, and your great at it. So can Ian try to make a happy face with strike point graphic in the next challenge. 😂👍
Bandit Baker We have but one hope Bandit we need to hack the GCQuads at TXG and kidnap Larry if we are going to take Ian and Matty’s game down, what other choice do we have? 😂
@@whiskerrub3821 You definitely have a cunning plan, Baldrick would be proud of you! The only problem is I'm not sure that either of us could even hack into a Can of Lager. On second thoughts lets just have a Wee drink or Four and let the Boys have fun 😁
@@FunkmeisterOfSedgley with the heavier heads and softer tip shaft its likely the cause. I wouldn't let it bother me if I was hitting the ball like that
Thats what callaway did for mr molinari right sent the clubs to japan and now hes got a set of apex mbs thats nobody else can get without a ton of money or huge tour level connections
hi guys! When i got to Malaysia from south africa. working in the club fitting and building aspect i was blown away with Epon..
andre joubert are you the real Andre Joubert...as in The Rolls Royce Of Fullbacks😂😂
Much love from back home ✌🏿🇿🇦
Never heard of this brand before today.
I really appreciate the way you guys cover the broad spectrum of clubs that are available. It’s a real treat to look in that drawer full of clubheads.
We have these all over Malaysia, am actually having a fitting next week as did not feel any gains after being fully fitted for the Titleist Cncpt irons. Congrats on bringing a pure quality iron to the channel 👏👏
Clive G am an Epon user in Malaysia for like nearly a decade now
Epon.... Beautiful!!! Tried their models about 3 years ago..... Amazing!!! However, the price..... mind-blowing!!!
The new Epon irons that have been coming out are some of the best feeling, most forgiving I’ve ever hit.
Thanks for doing a review on Epon. I currently game the AF303 with SteelFiber i95 and totally agree the tolerances on these are unreal. Weight, loft and lie came out exactly the to decimal point of the spec sheet.
Congratulations on hitting 40K, 50K next. Gorgeous irons and lovely display of ball striking from Ian, aka Mr. Consistency
My mate bought the 705 about a year and a half ago from Jamie down at forge golf who you know. His handicap went from 13 too 8 in 1 year based on just what you were saying there. Every strike that came off the club was the same. He loves them. These look nice though.
Another nice video for the guys to see these top end products.
Cheers
Those Irons are a thing of beauty! Wish my swing was half as consistent as Ian’s!! I currently game the PTX pro from Hogan, absolutely love them.
Nice job guys 👍 jeez, Ian is becoming the right handed robot.
Thank you so much for reviewing these!! I appreciate it since I was the one who brought it up in the Q&A last week!!! You guess are the best
Glad to hear Jeff Sheet’s name. Made several clubs of his design when he was the club designer for Golfsmith
Nice looking iron...you looked like you really enjoyed swinging those Ian. Cool looking shaft. First look at the sole I thought, "Mmm turf connection? Maybe too much, like the Miura CB301?" But no.👍 Shame they came in "Righty's" Matty.😊 Always good to see the more more niche products. Keep'em coming TXG.
Ha! Great twist. Didn't expect Ian to be the one showcasing his ball striking. Great stuff.
Another brand to consider when I upgrade my clubs later this summer.
OMG. Impressive ball striking Ian. Shafts look sweet also.
Just in the process of trading my AF 705 to move into the 305, they feel very good. Will be playing them with a Mitsubishi C6 which is a really nice balance for me.
Damn look at that strike pattern! 🎯 What a gorgeous set of sticks! Didn’t think the wider sole and offset would suit Ian but hard to argue with those results.
Epon , the ultimate forged iron .. great review 😉🏌️⛳️🍻
Ian Fraser... the tannest Scott in Canada! 😂. You guys are the best! Thanks for bringing us the golf geek dope we crave! =)
Great review. Any chance you guys can get a hold of the newly released Honma TW-X irons to review?
I have Miura now but eyeing Epon AF-305 as the next set. But, the problem is finding a decent price in the U.S.
I'm curious as to why when testing irons it is always a 6-iron that is used. I truly enjoy your offering as I feel I am learning so much.
Good review guys, always nice to see JDM clubs on the channel. I play 20 year old Yonex ADX Tour irons and they have the exact same features.

Can you review Orka golf irons? great work guys as always......
Very well done Ian, gorgeous iron. You may just have to put them in the bag.
Endo makes the finest forged irons in golf..... My 2015 OnOff Kuro irons are the ones that kicked Mizuno out of my bag after 20 years.
My Kuros are my gamers and my back ups are Epon AF-302..... Endo rocks
Very niceee. Ian you just might have found your next iron set given the dispersion....Hell you could drop a small town where they all landed.
Those are delicious and exactly what I’m looking for. Was thinking JPX919 HM PRO but these jammies are something. ✌️⛳️
Very cool design. From an offset, head size standpoint, what would you compare them to from a major manufacturer?
Oh yes EPON are fantastic but the price! If you have the chance, please review Honma TW series. They are more affordable and they look real nice. Great video guys.

✌🏿🇿🇦
Ian, how do you come to your ideal spin numbers? Old rule was club number X 1000 but you said you'd like your 6 iron around 5100
Just hit these at Club Champion and they blew me away with the speed, distance, and launch/spin consistency. Was getting 1.44 SF on TM4 and carrying them 183 (6 iron), about 8 yards longer than my Miura CB1008’s, and with steeper land angle. Can’t believe I just dropped that much coin on a set of irons, but results were undeniable!
U should have got ur spec sheet and got someone else to build them.
Ian, get them in your bag. I've gamed lots of JDM irons since 2012, and an endo forged iron has always felt the best to me. Great vid.
By the way, what shoes are wearing?
Gfore
beautiful iron, great review, perfect swing
Looks like a decent iron, have you guys thought of trying Orka irons? Based here in the UK and im sure they would send some stuff out to you
They are in discussions with possible outlets in the US as we speak.
Off topic guys. Can you recommend a packed club set for a beginner adult lady golfer. Wilson, Callaway over beginner sets. Tying to get the missus to golf with me and thought a full package set might be a good way to start and if she likes golfing and wants to take it up we can get a custom fit set next year. Thanks lads love all you do :)
I recently had a set of Titleist CNCPT (CP-01) irons built. Love the feel. Are you planning on doing a review? Thank You!
I have the Epon 503, they feel great 👍🏻
Five sets of Endos and they aren't going anywhere. Nice review.
Lovely looking irons
How was the feel? How would you compare the forgiveness to other irons? How do you compare it to the epon 505?
Do you guys have any experience with Maltby products? Last year I built my first set of irons with Maltby TE forged heads. They too had the weight progression of the heads like Epon. Any insight on the quality of their product, etc?
Once again awesome video boys 🏌️♂️⛳👌

Compare to miura cb 301, which one is more forgiving and softer?
I'm intrigued...what if someone wanted a longer length club? What would you do to counteract the swingweight getting too high. This is d4.5 at standard length I'm assuming you are hitting
Never heard of this brand before . you obviously like these irons, but how do they survive as a business and whoever are they selling to . However nice to see new products, thanks for your efforts.
Great video Great irons as well keep up the good work lads.
Where do the Epon 305 stack in forgiveness. What is a comparable brand and model ?
what is the cost of that club as it is Ian? I am all about feel, I love my mizuno clubs soft feel. So these are something I would consider.
Please test 505
What profile player are these targeted at?
Epons are awesome..... love my AF-302 solid as can be. Epon please offer 2 AF-305s one standard AND one with less offset for scratch golfers please!!!
My kinda video Ian. Surely if the swingweight is bang on you aren't feeling the 105g. Why don't u bounce up to 112g 105x? You were spanking them get them in the bag

im use Epon Af-502 iron set
Ian- what SHOES ARE YOU WEARING?!?! They are smooth brotha!
How do these compare to PXGs? I'm guessing they are just as expensive?
Can you talk more about the weight? A SW of 4.5 for an iron sounds really high. Is there a general rule for juniors, ladies, men?
MrDougslink D4/D5 kinda leaning to heavy
D1/D2 - normal for most men with swing speed of 75 -85mph with 6 iron
C7/C8 ladies swing weight
Are used Callaway X-Forge the best way to cheaply try an endo product?
Srixon are endo forged iirc. Cheapest way would be an old Titleist 690 or even an old epon.
cheapest would be some old precept irons probably. try the Tour premium CB
Hi guys, have you heard or tried any orka irons before?
Have you guys heard of Orka golf based in the UK
What does a set of these irons shafted in the matte blk nippon cost?
Do you guys have several scales? And can you calibrate them?
Any chance of a pxg 0211 review.?

P.s would you let that toe down number bother you? Not really since ball flight comes first
Craig Berry it’s something I’m working on.
@@ianfrasergolf I also noticed the 4 degrees toe down. Perhaps that was helping you work against the offset? Looked like you were throwing darts!
@@FunkmeisterOfSedgley with the heavier heads and softer tip shaft its likely the cause. I wouldn't let it bother me if I was hitting the ball like that
Ive been using Epon for about 15 years, nothing comes close.
Even a sniper couldn’t get grouping that good on the club face!
Great video as always. Way to give it "the beans"!!
May I suggest you check out your tempo and see how temp work impacts strike?
Peon compared to Muir’s? Thoughts
Sorry for spelling.... epon vs muira..
Thats what callaway did for mr molinari right sent the clubs to japan and now hes got a set of apex mbs thats nobody else can get without a ton of money or huge tour level connections
Hi guys just got a message from mark crossfield is he going to visit you at last guys over there.👍👍
