dlow206 5,949 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 I bought those ZX 5 irons without trying them. Many would say that is a no-no, but the price was so good that if they don’t workout, i will for sure not lose money. 5 Quote Follow my golf journey to break into the 80s Current tester for the Titleist TSi Driver Spring 2020 MGS Tester for the Fujikura Motore X Shaft Updated 12/27/2020 Driver: TSi 2 - Graphite Design AD-XC 6S Hybrids: SIM Max 3H, 4H - Matrix Ozik 85S Irons: ZX5 5 - PW - Nippon Modus 120 S Wedges: CBX 2 54, CBX Full Face 58 - KBS Hi-Rev S Putter: ER2 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post hckymeyer 6,262 Posted November 28, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2020 Broke the almost year long drought of buying stuff and picked up an Odyssey 10s from Cally preowned for during their big sale. Also grabbed a Perfect Practice putting green to replace the old birdieball. I won't get that until Christmas though, my boys don't know it yet but that's what they got me for Christmas 10 Quote Driver: Epic SZ w/ VA Composites Raijin 65 04 3w: '16 M2 hl w/ Diamana D+ 82 5w: Launcher HB w/ HZRDUS Yellow Hybrid: 22 deg.

Grand Stranded 1,486 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I'm normally up on Long Island from Thanksgiving until after Christmas. This year is different though. My sister is having a knee replacement done on 1/4, so I'm going up right before Christmas and will stay to help out her and my 91 year old dad (she's single, and he lives with her) until she's recovered from her surgery. Her house is right next to Bethpage State Park, so I'm hoping for some mild weather through mid February. My plan is to walk 9 as often as I can, but I would need a very light stand bag. So.... I went on Budget Golf, they have the 2019 model Sun Mountain 3.5 SL on sale for $139, and with 15% off BF promo I got it for $118. With the price of golf bags, I think that's a great deal. They have two colors available green/black or Black/white w red accents. I went with the black/white/red. 8 Quote Driver Epic Max 10.5* Hazardous Smoke i-10 Fairway TS2 16.5* Kuro Kage Hybrids TS2 19* & 21* Kuro Kage Irons PXG 0211 5-GW MMT70 Wedges Vokey SM7 52F & 58-M Putter Newport 2.0 33.5" Bag Hybrid 5 stand or 2.5+ Extras Tracy 33.5” G400 Max 9.0* Alta CB Rogue 15* Quaranta Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post tony@CIC 17,610 Posted November 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2020 WHAT A WEEK FOR LEFTY STUFF! Yes the caps mean I'm shouting The week started out with the purchase of FJ WeatherSoft gloves - 2 for $10. My wife and I had some spare time this afternoon so we absolutely had to go to PGASS to redeem her $10. coupon. We went there under the premise that we needed a new ball retriever. After looking in the discount shirt rack I got 2 for $20. each but that's too boring to even show you pics. My wife got one of those uv sleeves (she's had multiple melanoma issues) and a new top. And yes we did pick up a ball retriever - full price - but what made up for it.......A demo King F9 5 wood with a UST Helium shaft for $49. Yup $49.! I grabbed it even though I already have a F Max 5 wood. Although it's a demo, it's in perfect condition, not a mark on it.

azstu324 3,058 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Picked up this pretty minty 3h for a trade for a putter that I'd been trying to sell for some time. Haven't played a hybrid in a little while and was about to pull the trigger on another UDI.. but then a fish bit on my offer to trade so here I am now with a Callaway Epic Flash 3h 18°. I'm pretty jazzed about the whole deal. the more I practice, the luckier I seem to get.. 6 Quote SIM Max 7°/ Fujikura MotoreX F1 6X 917F2 3 Wood / UST ProForce V2 Black F4S++ Epic Flash Hybrid 18* / Mitsubishi Tensei Silver 70g TS-1 3 - P / TT DG 105 (S+) / GP Microsuede TSW 50/6 + 56/12 Wedge O-Works #7 / Superstroke Ultra Slim 1.0 Link to post Share on other sites
