I got him to take $10 off the shipping and $68 for the club. It came to about $85 total with tax. So the M2 3HL arrived today in perfect condition, head still in plastic and the original HC ( which he didn’t think he had) still in the sealed bag. I took it to our range and to be honest, it’s a strange club. Like with anything, I’m seeing some pros and cons already. Cons…. Despite the 16.5*loft the shaft is 3W length. It has a light Atmos 5A shaft, yet it feels very heavy compared to a lot of the clubs in my bag. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, just… different? It’s not the most forgiving club either, probably due to the shaft length. Pros… I hit about 20-25 balls with it, and I honestly don’t see much difference between the height I’d get with a normal 3W, maybe a tad higher and I didn’t seem to be getting much less distance than I would with a 15*. Obviously way too early to give more info than that, but like I said when I bought it, I stink with FWs, and I’ll only be using this once or twice most rounds so until another “bargain” comes along, this will be fine.

Grand Stranded Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 On 1/22/2023 at 10:31 PM, Grand Stranded said: In an effort to pick up a little SS I picked up a Rogue ST Max 3 wood with a 40g Cypher shaft on CPO recently. I haven’t been playing a lot, but after about my 3rd swing the shaft snapped about 3 inches below the grip. I called Callaway looking to replace it, but no luck. I had to return it instead. I then picked up an Epic Max with the same shaft on eBay. Saturday on my very first swing the shaft snapped again in the exact same spot. Again, returning for a refund. I’m quoting the above post, just to give some context to what I’m about to tell you here…. 3 weeks ago, I decided to return the Rogue ST Max I have under it’s 90 day playability guarantee and order another G425 Max, which is what I had prior with the only difference being this time I’d get a 10.5* instead of a 9* Fortunately they let me hold onto the Rogue until my Ping arrived, because today the store called me and said that my club had arrived, but the box was damaged and the shaft had splintered. That’s 3 separate clubs, 3 broken shafts, one within 10 swings, one on the very first, and another that never even made it into my hands all within a month’s time. . Unbelievable… I couldn’t make this up if I tried. 6 Quote Driver: G425 Max 10.5* Fairway: 2016 M2 3HL 16.5* HYBRID: Rogue ST Max 18* & 20* Irons: E722 5-AW Wedges: CBX 54* & 58* Putter: Phantom X 5.5 33.5” Elixir 2.5 14 way Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolling around with a camper is the only way to go. I don't think I could handle sleeping on an air mattress anymore, plus having climate control is awesome! I can't wait to hear about the trips you and your family take in it. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
