My custom blades

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

Thanks to the guys at TPS who finally got this matter resolved...

I'll show you guys the differences. The blades came out great again.

In the first and 2nd pics, I put the blades side by side...the one without the red is the old one. I then sharpie'd where they overlap. The 2nd to last pic shows the markings really well.

look pretty good, i love that pattern , though i am a righty...

I was extremely pleased with the final product I received from TPS. Guess I have to think of ordering replacement blades for when I finally bust a blade on my XN10s.

those look nice. i suppose tps only offers custom wood and not composite? i know i've probably asked a billion times, but i need some more whitneys soon.

love that curve, nice pick

[mojo122 530]

TPS will make custom composites.

[kiprusoff*7 0]

TPS will make custom composites.

for how much, who do you call. or do you just e-mail them?

and JR how much did those cost you?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

TPS does not make custom composite products for the retail market.

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

THe revision was free - I returned six blades.

I get a cut rate on the blades...very good price if I don't say so myself. Basically...I can't get a sr. wood blade in my store using my employee discount for cheaper than I get these.

Your pattern would be better if you heated them up and stepped on them ;)

Personally I really like the pattern. Looks sort of like an RP. I suddenly wish I was a lefty, LOL. How long are these blades lasting you JR?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

I used to blow out the standards at the hosel, but these last me forever. Honestly...I've never broken one. Keep in mind these are pro spec.

[Dan_The_Man_16 0]

Sounds good. If these are pro spec. blades, are they like extra stiff and light also?

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

Better wood and thicker fibreglass wrap on them. Fibreglass-reinforced hosel as well.

Hey it says your name on it!!! :D I am liking that curve because it reminds me of the old gretzky II pattern.

[mack 44]

Kind of obvious that it'd have his name on it and I don't know if my old Gretzky IIs were off but I remember them being big hooks.

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

Gretzky II was a hook.

There's barely any curve on mine. I love it.

BTW the real curve is on the right of the pic comparing the two curves.

[joshy207 15]

JR, awesome curve... I don't know if I like the overall shape of your blade, looks awfully rockered and a little short for my taste... but the curve itself rocks. Too bad it's impossible to find something like that at retail...

Alright another closed toe lover!!!! Bend that thing a little closer to the middle and I'd buy a half dozen

Your curve looks simular to Larinov....

[Chadd 916]

Your curve looks simular to Larinov....

If you mean Larionov, his was nearly dead straight.

It looks like the TPs Hull woodie i saw at my LHS the other day, almost identical.

[JR Boucicaut 3760]

I've had to tinker with it. Too much loft for my liking, believe it or not. I like it completely closed or almost a reverse loft.
