MacAndrews Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 Bought the Callaway Mavrik Pro 4 hybrid to go with the 3h I bought a year ago. Bye-bye 4 and 5 iron. These are the first hybrids I've been able to hit consistently well without toe-hooking the ball 50% of the time. Should have bought the 4h much sooner. It's a great utility club I can actually launch high in the air. Next decision: Upgrade my 17/18 King Forged Tec's to the '22 model or go for the 21 Apex Pro? Leaning toward staying with Cobra.

Droptopman Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 JPX 923 Tours on the way. Should be here next week. Spent several hours on driver fitting. Know it will be Stealth 2+ but still wavering on shaft. Stock Hzadus Black Gen 4 is producing solid numbers, but going to spend a little more time with Ventus Blue and Black. Probably will just order with the stock shaft and maybe order an additional shaft after I figure it out. Doing the Rypstick speed training deal right now and it is increasing speed, so part of me thinks I should wait and see how much speed I pick up and whether it will translate to the course.

yankee Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 I recently purchased a LH SIM2 driver off ebay. Just the head, head cover and adapter wrench. Paid a total of $122 including shipping and tax. Took my M2 driver shaft and installed it on the SIM2. The shaft is a e42 lite Bassara. Easily fit. But have yet to hit it. Looks great though! Am now looking to get a 3W and Hybrid 3-4-5-6 in either women's or senior flex. My irons are Cleveland Launcher HB irons 8-PW with women lite flex shafts. My 7 is an Adams transition hybrid. I have an Adams Idea tech Gap Wedge, which I am thinking of getting rid of as I hardly use it, and when I do, don't hit it very well. I also have a Taylormade RSI graphite shafted sand wedge. Recovering from a fractured right side of my pelvis and multiple fractured ribs from a head on accident back on December 21. Started hitting balls in my back yard and am walking about a mile daily with a cane. Hoping to be ready to play by April Fools!

After hitting the 430s this year, I didn’t see any improvement over my 400 max. If I was getting a new Ping, I would look toward the 425. It’s loud but it seems to perform better for me, Yes I did and the distance is probably 5-7 yards farther, and the sound is pretty close to the G400 Max.
