ZackS Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 (edited) I have been testing out shafts and after some initial testing I liked the Modus 120 shafts. I did a 2nd testing with the Modus to compare Stiff and X Stiff. Despite the fact that by the book I should be X stiff my dispersion was tighter with the stiff. I also liked that with the stiff for full swings my spin was a little higher but on punch shots the spin was actually slightly lower. Finally today I did a test with the with the stiff modus and my current shaft and not only was it lower launching and higher spin which I was looking for buy dispersion was also higher. So I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on a set that was a good deal on eBay.

Popular Post Shrek74 Posted September 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 5, 2023 Well, I wasn't looking for anything but when the Rock Bottom Golf deal scrolled across my news feed I had to take a look. The Tour Edge C721 Pro was a driver that was fit to me through the TRUEGolfFit system Spring '22 but I just never really looked too much into it. So when I saw the deal they were offering, I figured what the heck. Let's give it a go. 9.5* w/ Tensei Raw White 65S shaft. The 3W is with a Tensei Raw Blue 65S shaft (Raw White was out of stock). Did come with a wrench, so that's a nice plus. I'll be very curious to get these on the range and bash some balls and see how they work. Shafts are my main concern as I've always played HZRDUS shafts in my woods. Maybe I'll do a member review of these. sirchunksalot, Josh Parker, cksurfdude and 7 others 10 Quote In My Sun Mountain C-130 'merica Cart Bag: Driver: Stealth+ Rocket 3W, 13.5* turned down to 12.75*, Stiff HZRDUS Smoke Red RDX, 75g Fairway: 949x 3w, 15*, Stiff HZRDUS Smoke Red RDX, 70g Fairway: 949x 5w, 18*, Stiff HZRDUS Smoke Blue RDX, 60g Hybrid: 939x 4H (21*), Stiff HZRDUS Smoke Black, 90g Irons: 101's, 5-PW, DG120 S300 Wedges: 286 @ 50*, JBFG @ 54* & 60*, DG120 S300 Putter: 002 Mid-Mallet @ 35", Super Stroke Pistol GT 2.0, Desert Camo Ball: Tour & Testing Vero X1 Technology: H4 w/ Tags, Pro L2 Rangefinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shlax Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) Haven't bought anything new just yet but end of season/fall sales are starting to creep in a my local golf store and I just caught the bug. The offerings on the used market in my area right now are absolutely not interesting from a price standpoint, especially considering end of year sales. Thinking of replacing my TaylorMade MG2 GW (52*) and SW (56*) for wedges with stiff shafts and go GW (50*) and SW (54*) as I often hit full shots inside 120 yds with these two clubs. I just upgraded to an x-stiff shaft in my irons (thanks to the Caley 01CB member testing) and there is now a bigger distance blind spot between 120 yds and 135ish yds with my current 52* GW and my 46* PW. Titleist Vokey SM8s from last year are now on sale at 25% off (and were already reduced from last year) but only left-handed clubs or funky grinds are left... I also recently got the obsessive idea of getting a 15th club, most likely a 2 or 3 hybrid or possibly a 5-wood, to start making rotations with my Taylormade Stealth UDI 2-iron (18*) depending on course and mood, basically. I used to despise hybrids and I don't know what happened but I desperately want one now. What are your thoughts on this? Will likely post a photo of a new shiny toy sometime in the near future...

So what have you bought lately? I picked up a Carnahan St. John's putter in the bargain bin at 2ndSwing for $8. Took it home and reshafted/gripped it and put in some new paintfill. Next up is the possible replacement for my SLDR. I really wanted it to be a G30 LS, but the numbers just weren't there. So hit this bad boy and spin dropped almost 900rpm and ball flight straightened out. I'll have to get it on the course for a side by side comparison before I determine if it makes a spot in the bag.

I also really want to swing the Stealth 2 because of the trade-in deal and $100 gift card promo they are running, even though I did not like last year's model at all.

pco225 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Anyone have a recommendation on a good fairway wood to replace my 25-degree hybrid? I don't love it off tight lies -- seems to go left as many hybrids do -- and I think it would be better to have a 23- or 24-degree fairway wood. The problem seems to be that those levels of loft are either a 7- or 9-wood, and getting a non-senior shaft is often a custom order.

cnosil Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Bought a pulled stroke lab shaft for $20 shipped and it arrived today. prior owner used a scotch bribe pad on the chrome to dull the finish; still looks decent; has what looks like the original grip and it seems like the counterweight is still in place. Need to order some epoxy; mine got dried out. Next question is what putter to put this in….Odyssey RSX or do I put it in my Taylormade to compare against the club I have been gaming? Only issue with the TM is that the shaft tip was prepped so it won’t look great on the stub. Or do I find another head while I wait for the epoxy? If I like it on the TM, I could always pull the steel section and replace. sirchunksalot, TJ Hall, StrokerAce and 5 others 7 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to seeing it in action and getting your reviews. sirchunksalot, cnosil, cksurfdude and 1 other 4 Quote TSR 3 9.0 GD Tour AD - DI 6S Stiff TSi 3 15.0 GD Tour AD - DI 6S Stiff TS3 21 Hybrid Tensei AV Blue 65 HY Stiff U-510 19 Utility Iron HZDUS Smoke Black 6.0 Stiff 5-PW 101T Irons - KBS Tour Lite Stiff - Official Tester 2023 Vokey SM9 52 F - 12 Nippon NS Pro 950 Stiff Vokey Forged 56 M - 10 DG S200 MG3 60 - 12 NS Modus3 Tour 105 Stiff Scotty Special Select - Squareback 2 - 35” / Super Stroke Slim 3.0 Z-Star Diamond Players 4 bag Official Tester - 2021 & Loyal MCC Plus 4 Sensor User Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KC Golf Posted September 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2023 After dropping my Bushnell V4 and getting it drenched, my rangefinder was giving me odd numbers (every so often), so I was having to triple check the numbers with my watch. So when I saw this on sale, I snagged it. I know it’s not very exciting, but the last one was pretty good, so hopefully this v5 will be a little bit better. ole gray, IndyBonzo, sirchunksalot and 7 others 10 Quote TSR 3 9.0 GD Tour AD - DI 6S Stiff TSi 3 15.0 GD Tour AD - DI 6S Stiff TS3 21 Hybrid Tensei AV Blue 65 HY Stiff U-510 19 Utility Iron HZDUS Smoke Black 6.0 Stiff 5-PW 101T Irons - KBS Tour Lite Stiff - Official Tester 2023 Vokey SM9 52 F - 12 Nippon NS Pro 950 Stiff Vokey Forged 56 M - 10 DG S200 MG3 60 - 12 NS Modus3 Tour 105 Stiff Scotty Special Select - Squareback 2 - 35” / Super Stroke Slim 3.0 Z-Star Diamond Players 4 bag Official Tester - 2021 & Loyal MCC Plus 4 Sensor User Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post IndyBonzo Posted September 9, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2023 So it’s Friday, and I was sitting outside with my Dad, having a couple glasses of wine, just minding our own business. And then I looked on eBay. . . I blame all of you! Every last one of you. Lol. PS. I may have picked up a 3 iron too.

Yeah there's probably some historical / collectors value in them! Enjoy and I wish you luck hitting them sirchunksalot 1 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...
