I’ve been doing long overdue top of the bag update this year, but I like to do my own R&D. So I know I could pay to get fit, but I’m trying to learn a bit on my own and like to tinker.
I ended up putting together a Tsr3 9* with a Ventus TR Blue 6x and it feels and performs (I think) perfect. I really didn’t get along with the HZRDUS black and I learned that I like a smoother profile, but nothing too loose (my prior shaft was a Speeder 661 6x).
I also put together the Tsr3 Hybrid 21* with the AD DI 9x and I’m 2/2 here in that it’s hitting the exact gap I’ve been trying to fill. I love the feel in this club too even though I think it’s a bit softer.
Now is where I’m trying to figure out the dreaded 3 wood. I’ve hit the titleist Tsr2 and 3, and liked them both, but am really brand agnostic (though obviously I’m getting along well with the Tsr lineup). I’ve noticed that Cobra and Ping don’t charge a crazy amount to up charge to Ventus Blue TR in the fairways. Titleist seems to have a better deal for graphite designs, but $350 up charge on ventus from them just hurts too much.
All of this is to say, would I be safe matching the driver, or should I consider maybe something softer like an AD UB 3 wood in the 7x?
