    So I will preface this by saying that my old irons were Titleist DCI Black Oversize + with Rifle Steel shafts, and I loved them.
    I talked myself into rebuilding my bag with new to me clubs, and am currently playing Taylormade M2’s with KBS regular shafts. Those are absolute cannons, and I’m struggling a bit to figure out the consistent distances out of them.
     I upgraded my driver to a Taylormade SIM Max, and am pretty happy with it.
    I also upgraded to a Titleist TSI2 5 wood, and am happy with it.
    I’ve still got my Callaway Big Bertha 3+ in the bag, but that club has always been a love/hate relationship.
    I still play my old Cleveland wedges, but it’s definitely time for those to change. I also just switched from an original Odyssey blade putter to a #7 mallet style.
    The biggest change for me was adding a 3 Hybrid. Where were these things 20 years ago? It’s great off the turf, and has become my go-to fairway finder off the tee.

    Today was a shining example of how cruel the golf gods can be.
    Front 9 wasn’t bad, even made back to back pars (not currently a normal occurrence).
    Back 9 was a horrible mess that nothing went right on.
    But the bottom line is that I got out in the sun with good friends. I’ll take that any day of the week.

    Fortunately you don’t really have to leave the Columbus area to get in a great round.
    Make sure that you check out Champions. It’s a city run course, but is in great shape, and will definitely test your skills.
    Turnberry is another great city run option.
    if you want to get into the suburbs, then Groveport Municipal is another solid option.
    I don’t really want to speak badly about any course, but make sure to stay away from American Royal.
