... "Last Purchase"


 

 

To be fair I followed it with “for a while!” Lol

Well this is a Freebie found in 5-6 old sets I got from my brothers golf club, I'm wondering if anyone knows of it or maybe knows a lady that played it. It's Wilson Ladies 7wood steel shaft wooden head, no idea what the loft is and the shaft close to the head has a TWIST area??

New Vokey SM8 54F $118 and New SM6 60K for $60.

I bought a new bag, 14 way Big MAX Dri Lite Hybrid. I like it but have not gotten out on a course with it yet.

I also just had my clubs regriped with Golf Pride MCC Align plus 4 midsize grips.  PGA Tour Superstore put driver grip on upside down! Maybe I can rotate the shaft 180° and keep the angle the same. I should have checked before I walked out.

Shouldn't have to check before you walk out,  but I would definitely take it back.    Changing the adapter setting will change the loft and lie of the club so if it is setup optimally,  you may not get expected performance.

I’m with @cnosil in you shouldn’t have to check. Taking it back would be the right way to do it. You will definitely change the setting rotating the shaft. Not 100% sure on cobra and what will change but something will.  
Did you take the whole club there or just the shaft?  If just the shaft then it’s probably on you and no reason to take it back without paying to fix it. If you took the whole club in then they should fix it for free.

Yes, I took the entire club. I guess I could see how it could happen. 1 out of 13, that's 92%

I'll take it back when I get time. They should be able to pop that grip of and reinstall it, right?

They may or may not be able to pop it off.  No matter it’s their screw up and should make it right.  Bring sales slip with you.

If they used air it should be no problem. I would make sure to let them know if the screw up immediately so they know to expect ya.

I'd actually have a hit with it first, who knows how much difference it will make, better maybe? 

When I've move a shaft to lower/higher loft found that the grip looked ugly BUT after a few games forgot about that and hit the ball better, just a suggestion....

You’re correct you can get used to it.  I had the Align grips for a short time I couldn’t get used to them.  
conversation for different thread I think.

Cashed out pretty handsomely at the Super Bowl last night...

...thinking it may be time to finally look at the Scotty / Toulons I've been eyeballing for years

Ordered!

4 degrees of bounce and then bending it a degree strong... 

So basically a shovel for a lob wedge?

That's a pretty awesome feeling!

Pretty much.  I do a lot of manipulating the club face green side so I'm looking forward to having this.  This will be in and out of the bag though depending on course and conditions.

I would have to imagine that a wet course would be a recipe for disaster

[Invader Zim 315]

Don't know how this will land, but opted to sign up for a putter fitting (over a driver fitting) at Club Champion's NYC location for next week.

Seeing as the flat stick is 40% of strokes, I'm hoping their SAM technology can help me find my forever gamer and at least begin to fix what is the worst part of my game!

Will report back next week.

Another demo 7i (recently picked up a very good condition Apex DCB, which I like a lot but still thinking yeah I _should_ get something a little more GI) ...

New Level gi22

FYI - they have a pretty nice custom order page setup where you can specify each of length, loft, lie; shaft selection not the most extensive but they do have a few different Recoils .. which I like. Grip selection limited, though, to NL-branded Tour Velvet or MCC (or none).

I have this wedge and it will be a great addition to your bag.

Bought some stuff from wilson.

My old putter face insert hits harder or softer depending on the temperature, so I wanted something with a milled face. Got 1.75 average putts per hole in my last round (total average is 1.9).

I also got some of these to try.

So much new gear out there! I haven't taken the plunge on anything quite yet, however I do see a new set of wedges in my future! 

[Pvicary]

I had been playing TaylorMade SIM irons. Last week I purchased a set of Mizuno 921 Pro  irons with UST Mamiya F3 shafts.

Hi my name is Nick..... I am a golf Ho.....

I cannot afford these and really don't need them by any stretch of the imagination, but I just purchased the sexiest new set of irons on the planet. Maybe a support group or an intervention is necessary at this point? Open to suggestions.

I decided to retire my Ping G400 Max and purchased a Ping G430 Max Driver.

Did you try it before you bought and did you see any improvements.   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,

Srixon ZX5 MKii irons, 6-P , UST Recoil 780 F4 SMACWRAP shafts . Played them on Friday and Saturday last week on a trip to Palm Springs. Loved them. Great feel and the distance was spot on. First time I have hit the irons in turf, love the VT sole.

Now I am looking for a new 4 Hybrid, probably be the Paradym X or the TSR2, have hit both recently and many others but these 2 were my favorite. I am trying to see how many different club brands I can have in my bag at one time.

Now sitting with 4 sets of irons, Takomo 101s, Ping i525s, Mizuno Pro 225s along with the Srixons. and 5 putters... I think I have a problem.

Sounds like you have the Golf Ho disease. Don't feel bad, there are a lot of us around.

My wife keeps asking why so many boxes and golf clubs keep showing up for delivery, luckily she doesn't come down to the basement much and see how many clubs I really have.

You’re way behind some of the people on this site.  Gotta keep buying clubs
