Jmikecpa Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Even their pro series, particurarly the mini was hard to turn over at times, when paired with the proper shaft. Add the new Cally Apex as well. Stock it is tough to turn over. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy mobile app WITB 2024 Driver: Qi10 LS 9* Ltd.

BIG STU Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Its probably a consistent 245-260 club for me when I'm playing my normal "fairway finder" 10-20 yard fade. If i want to jump on one and hit it straight or with a baby draw then I can get 260-280 on it depending on the roll/contact. I have't tried any forced carries with it yet now that I have the new shaft in, and wasn't about to try that out in a tournament. Edit: The Snell probably spins a bit more than the zstars. I find the Zstars to not be overly high spinning for a tour ball. More spin than B330 and RZN black but less than the rest. The Srixon Soft Feels spin better for me than the newer Z-Stars. I have not messed with the Snell Balls I got from a pro friend of mine yet had too many irons in the fire dialing in and grinding a gap wedge for me Driver ---- Callaway Big Bertha Alpha Speeder 565 R flex- 5W TM V-Steel Fubuki 60r--- 7W TM V-Steel UST Pro Force Gold 65R----- 9 W TM V Steel TM MAS stiff---- Irons 2015 TM TP CB Steel Fiber 95 R--- GW Callaway Mack Daddy 2 52* shaft unknown junk pile refugee.

It was pull city yesterday. Too long a swing = pulls + 7i going 180+ and other clubs going too far. My Mixed-Bag: Driver: Mavrik Sub zero, ventus black 7x Fairway: Still looking!

SuperDave Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I bought my friend an old Ping 1 iron for Christmas last year. He's a big hitter and has trouble hitting a 3 wood. With the 1 he hits a few fat if he thinks too much, but when he gets ahold of one, it's nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonnie96 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Was messing around one day with a buddy on the course. Each of us dropped a ball by the 250 marker out on a par 5.Told him swing smooth sand don't worry where it goes mantra. We both used 5 iron and felt no pressure. I hit mine 20 yards short and he hit his front edge.Easily my longest 5 iron I can ever recall with no effort applied but a bunt feeling Easily felt like I swung at 10 mphs swing speed This game has a ton to do with mind over matter and letting the club do the work IMHO.
