LOL most of the stuff I look at it will say Reduced like 20 % for quick sale. I have not bought anything off duh bay for years now. Last thing I "bought" was funny. I put in to buy the Jones bag I have now. Got a PM on WRX asking if it was me? Yeah I told the guy. He pulled the ad off the Bay and sent me the bag free because he only wanted like $25 at the time plus shipping. I did make him take my money for the shipping prices. We have done quite a few trade deals in the past. Last thing I bought on line was from one of my buds on FB on Forged Club Appreciation. About 2 years ago I bought another FC=4000 11 iron to match the one in my set of FCs. I love those wedges---- I deal only with Money Orders and a lot of us guys deal on trust. Most guys now deal with Pay Pal or Vemmo and do not do FB pay either.

I probably can't hit it, but I thought it would be fun to have it around to play with. Might need a lesson from Jack. A MacGregor MT Tourney Custom 1-iron; belonged to Lionel Hebert, a 5 time PGA Tour champion and winner of the 1957 PGA Championship. How could I pass this up?? Took the 1-iron to my practice session today. Well, I can hit it... not very high up in the air and not very far... oh yeah, and it hurt!! Must have missed the sweet spot. The shaft is waaaay too stiff for me. It's in such beautiful shape that I don't want to fiddle with it, so I guess it becomes decoration in my new hitting bay when it's finished. sirchunksalot, Rickp, Vegan_Golfer_PNW and 3 others 6 Quote “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same combo set and love them, I almost wish I just did the SX7's through out the whole set, or at least to the 5 and leave the 4 alone. I was fit into the Modus 105 and haven't had any issues.

I couldn’t love the (subjective) feel as much as you but my goodness the shape is perfection. Which shafts did you select? The feel obviously wasn't like my Mizuno's but in the ZX7 it was close. I stuck with my trusty Project X LZ 6.0 shafts. Thankfully they had them in stock and should have my clubs built within a week! The last time I bought another iron that I liked I was back to my Mizuno's in a couple months but I think I'll be sticking with these for a while. If not I'll get an entire set of JPX 921 Tours with no 921 Forged unless it's the 4 and 5 iron. cksurfdude and sirchunksalot 2 Quote In my Lux XV Cart Bag: Driver: RADSPEED XB PTC 10.5° Fujikura Speeder Evolution 661 VII Stiff Utility: Apex UW 17° and 19° Project X HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX 70 6.0 4 Hybrid: KING LTDx 21° KBS PGI 85 Stiff Irons: ZX5/ZX7 Project X LZ 6.0 Wedges: 2.0 49°, 53°, 57° Project X LZ 6.0 Putter: L.A.B.

Hobert Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Paid $50 to keep the demo Sub70 849D I had been trying out. At least the head was brand new when I got it, so it worked out to be a total price of $250. cksurfdude, cnosil, mikeanthony and 4 others 7 Quote 849D with Evenflow Riptide (stiff) V Steel 3 wood 699U 3 (19.5*) 699 (4-6) / 699 Pro (7-PW) with Tour 120 shafts (stiff) JAWS Raw (50/54/58 degrees) ER8v with Fujikura MC shaft (firm) Kirkland V3 2023 2.5+ / University of Miami Stand Bag Nitron - Forum Test Review Pro L2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscipleofPenick Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Finally the GG near me got Z-Star Diamond in, so I went and grabbed a dozen. Ballnamic recommended this for me with 4 separate data sets so let's see if it's any better than the regular Z. cksurfdude, GolfSpy TCB, Kenny B and 3 others 6 Quote Take Dead Aim Driver: PXG 0211 10.5* Fairway: Titleist 917 F3 15* Hybrid: Adams Idea Pro Boxer Gold 18* Irons: MacGregor MT-86 Pro Wedges: Vokey 50/54/58 Putter: SeeMore X2 Costa del Mar Ball: Srixon Z-Star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmikecpa Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Not a recent purchase but a purchase from 9 months ago that finally arrived. Took Callaway over 9 months to ship me golf balls…at least they finally made it. sirchunksalot, MattF, cksurfdude and 1 other 3 1 Quote WITB 2024 Driver: Qi10 LS 9* Ltd.

Grand Stranded Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) On 7/24/2022 at 2:24 PM, cksurfdude said: PXG 0211 3H with PX Cypher 50g in 5.0 flex .. finding I'm liking lighter, and slightly more flexy, shafts (eg. vs a 60g 5.5). This one has a really nice solid whack when you catch it right, and seems to be pretty easy to hit. Been struggling to reliably hit a FW .. 5W or 7W .. reliably so for now this is my "long" (non-tee) club. On 7/24/2022 at 5:20 PM, Kenny B said: Same shaft I have in my Callaway driver, 3W, HeavenWood, and 9W. Seems to fit my swing pretty well. I have it in my 4H, and 5-DW. I’m liking it a lot more than the MMT shafts I had in my PXGs. @cksurfdude Here’s a little secret about that Cypher 50… the 5.0 isn’t 50g, it’s 59g. The 5.5 is 61g and the 6.0 is 62g. First time I saw that online, I thought it was a misprint, but it was confirmed to me by PXG and Cleveland sales reps. BTW if you’re enjoying the lighter more flexible shafts, when you have a chance, demo a driver with either the Distanza, Bassara or nvs orange in A flex. They’re all around 42-45g. I gained a little over 20 yards carry down here below sea level just by switching from regular flex Alta to a Distanza in my G425.
