What Have You Bought Lately? (CHA - Club Ho's Anonymous)

If it helps you gauge the MPF of your 0211’s, they comp pretty closely to the the Ping I210’s and AP2 irons and in between the PXG P and XP. The XP are more like the G and T300’s

I’m assuming the Tour Edge E series irons didn’t work out very well?

Hey, ok good info, went back and looked up the MPF #s for those other models; presented here for my fellow golf club nerds 😉 are those and other current iron models..

Note the categories are Maltby's.

 

And on the E723 - yes, very good club, definitely *very* playable for me, buuuut ... just didn't see "better enough" performance from them vs 0211s; feel was ok but not "sweet" and while that Tensei shaft is excellent (have a similar Tensei in an EXS FW) not sure it's the best for me... So the search continues!

Wife and I were just up there for a weekend getaway and drove by a part of that course on our way to meet friends at Castle Hill Inn (just for a drink .. were were not staying there) -- and wow it looks like one outstandingly beautiful course!! 

Walking it as a vol and watching the pros on it should be quite a unique experience!! 👍

So i was looping for the Big Guy.   No not Big Stu... The dali lama. And when we got done he started walking off like he was gonna stiff me.  So i says hey lama...how about something, ya know, for the effort? He starts to say something but then stops and hands me these...

I was kinda hoping for the total consciousness thing....but maybe he was still mad about the wrong yardage thing where he didnt carry the glacier.

hahaha there have been a lotta really fun posts in this thread but man I think you just nailed top spot (for now 🤪) in my book! Love it 👍

Found a set of old Titleist irons and woods on Marketplace that need just a touch of TLC and then I’ve got a mancave project for them. Cleaned some rust off of the iron faces today, still need to see about cleaning up the backs a bit. 1,3,4,5 woods, 2-9 irons, PW, and a Royal Eagle putter.

Funny story - got the MGS newsletter this morning on Deals .. checked out the $18 polo .. looked good .. put 3 in my cart .. went to checkout .. they were like $33 and change each, not $18 .. delete two of them , figure I'll try one anyway .. now that one polo is listed in the cart at $11.12 (+$6.50 shipping)....

Didn't click anything else except "Payment"!!! 😁

I recently purchased a new fisherman hat, say what, you’re on the wrong site/feed.

Well the fisherman’s hat comes with a neck pull down to protect my neck from the sun, works like a charm.

Love the colors and Craftsman seems to make a quality head cover! 

I like the length on that headcover, looks like it covers the whole shaft down to the bag.
