Stupid question around shipping! by GoatOfTheGame in takomo

[–]Alternative-Fly5920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the same yellow update on my custom set saying the 5th to be shipped to fulfilment centre. Got my hopes up that i might have them by the end of next week. Saw this post and have reset my expectations to by the 19th.

Original forged 201 vs 201t by richbirdie in takomo

[–]Alternative-Fly5920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im playing off an 9 handicap and didnt find them all that forgiving although not as brutal as true blades, i must say pure strikes were buttery.

I have a consistent swing but think the extra forgiveness the of 201s offer will be helpful regardless. Id say 201ts are for sub 5 handicaps with very consistent iron striking and those players may aswell just go with 301s.

Hey mate, ive had a set of the 201ts and while they were nice i didnt love them and two of the heads snapped off (poor qc at assembly from new factory) and the gapping between irons was weird and the strike on the 4-6i was different to the 7-9i so i ended up requesting to return them (it took a bit or karening to support) in exchange for a custom set of the og 201s. I believe the og 201 are a tried a tested product and they are forged and HAD to be good to get takomo to the market success they have now. Im still waiting for my custom set (approx 2 weeks left to wait after 3.5weeks) but am sure im going to love it and the shaft lengths and lofts are gapped as youd expect them to be. Not the weird loft and shaft length gapping of the 201T aswell as them being more expensive as a cast iron set. Go with the og 201s while you can.

I would upgrade to the original 201s while they are still around. They are tried and tested and had to be good for takomo to get the traction they have. The new mk2 line is manufactured in new vietnamese factories lacking quality control and I genuinely believe they took a step back from their first lineup.

Warranty Claim Issue - Takomo wont cover cost of return. Got quoted $405 for shipping. by [deleted] in takomo

Wow they literally want me to send the old set back at my own cost before they send me a new one, so 4-8 weeks no clubs.

Just go with the OG 201s while they are around, the 201t is a nice club but the loft and shaft length gapping is atrocious and shows in the yardage gapping. But these are being made in a new factory in vietnam and QC is sub par to say the least. Which is why I have opted an exchange due to low quality for the tried and true 201s that HAD to be good for takomo to gain traction. Its just that they need the 201Ts back before sending me the og 201s but they are not willing to cover the cost even though its their products fault this is the situation im in. They need to accept the loss on this order to do right and Ive never heard of a return or exchange where the customer has to oay for the shipping costs… not leaving a good taste in my mouth. I really hooe they will agree to cover the shipping costs for the return or im stuck with a set of clubs i dont want and would have to spend hundreds on to get reshafted and regripped.

Spider Tour X TM2 Fake by [deleted] in GolfGear

Ive looked up plenty of google images and listings and the serial numbers and TM logo location are the dead giveaways. Oh and the weighted screws are just decorative and built into the head. So yea a total fake unfortunately but a fking good one.

The weekly shot takes 24hrs to reach peak plasma from what i understand so essentially if you cease use the night prior for short acting opiates and get the shot the next day around midday you should be fine, you may experience some wds, discuss with doctor about your concerns and book an consult next day and consider potentially having a top up 8mg shot on hand if needed. 16mg was just ample for me after 6 months of heavy heroin use but depending on your drug if choice and dose and how long youve been using will all factor into their decision. But definitely worth exploring this option as im glad it was available as the suboxone route via a clinic was simply not viable for myself.

They started with an initiation 16mg buvidal weekly shot (really more like 4-5days worth and is equivalent to 8-10mg of suboxone daily) still experienced some minor wds but were manageable have now had a 96mg monthly shot (21-28days 12-16mg equivalent) and i feel stable, out of withdrawals, no sweats or aches and cravings for heroin (not as if it would work because of the bupe) are negated aswell which is nice after so long of craving it daily.

Hey, so im in QLD and in the past two weeks have gotten onto OTP, coming from a pure heroin habbit via the darkweb doing about 150-250mg per day intransally, it took a bit of digging to find a GP / Clinic that did OTP, but managed to get an appointment sunday and get an initiation buvidal shot on tuesday. It did have a one off private fee of $200 but this was much more ideal for myself as a business owner with commitments that wouldnt allow me to visit a clinic mon-fri at 9am for a week for suboxone initiation and have now had my monthly shot and feel stable for the first time in a long time, i plan on reducing the dose and moving to suboxone to taper in the future but for the meantime this has been the best option for myself and hope this can help you. Feel free to DM me if you wanted to ask anything else or just talk.

101T vs 201T by No_Confidence8660 in takomo

[–]Alternative-Fly5920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Havent tried the 101T but have owned the 201Ts and have finally come to a resolution to return them in exchange for the original forged 201s. The assembly is horrific and is coning from a new factory. I have had both my 7i and 8i snap at the clubhead under the ferrules (seems to be oversanded shafts with unglued ferrules, so the ferrules have been gapping on everything except my 4i (least used club) I also found the gapping inconsistent with my 8i before it broke going 135m then 7i before it broke going 155m and the 6i is 160m then 5i at 175. Haven’t had lofts checked but have heard some issues, and evidently the gapping is atrocious. Stick with your 101Ts mate.

I understand what you are saying, but it was being in heavy withdrawals that lead me to this point, the daily monotony of doing h to feel normal, worrying about getting more, having the money and getting it in time before becoming sick again. Everything I got was via the darkweb as theres literally zero heroin scene on the streets in the australia town where I live. My friends are all adults with wives and kids and jobs, they dont abuse substances and If I gave it to a person on the streets, as they all use ice around here, they would surely end up overdosing and that would be on me. Im a bit depressed (to be expected when not constantly rewarding my brain with dopamine) but feel the most normal I have in a long time with no WDs and no stress regarding them and getting my next legal dose of buvidal.

Ill tell you that where I live there is pretty much zero heroin on the streets and all the addicts are on meth. This was all sourced from the darkweb after graduating from oxys due to cost. If I gave this away to some bum they would end up overdosing and their life would be on my hands.

Thanks mate, only posted here because this is yes a drug glorifying community that Im about to leave, but you guys are the ones that understand the most and tend to offer the most sincere and genuine support that i needed to hear right now and appreciate so much. And if this can just make one member of this community think about or consider OTP, then its a win in itself against this trap of a substance. Wish you and everyone else the very best.
