deejaid Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I just bought a KBS C Taper Lite shaft and shafted up my 3 iron in my Mac CB92's so my bag is set. Really don't want to change a thing club wise. I do want to switch up my ball selection though. Played the MG C4 as well as whatever else I have lying around but I think I want to go with a lower compression Urethane ball this year. The ultra low 35 or so compression I'm just not digging, and I think 90-100 compression is out, what is a good middle ground?

Peejer Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I've got a new set of irons on the brain! I'm traveling a lot these days, so thinking I'll leave a set in Virginia - to avoid having them damaged during shipping... So, I currently have the TaylorMade SLDR's, but thinking of either the TaylorMade RSI2's (because I can get them for a steal), or Ping G-Series or the latest is the Mizuno JPX-900 Hot Metal with the Project X LZ 5.5 shafts. What to do, what to do...Ping & Mizuno are hard to find good deals on. I typically stay a model or two years behind the trend to get the best value. I'll have to keep my eyes open for a deal, maybe pick up a set on 2nd Swing, Global Golf or eBay. After all the hype, I was anxious to hit the Callaway Epic Driver. My impressions was...meh! It's ok, nothing that made me go 'OMG - I have to have this'! Not that I was really 'shopping' for a driver, but I was definitely curious. Curiosity satisfied, my wallet is happy with the results. -- P.J. cksurfdude and dadivots 2 Quote Stealth Driver ZX 3W RadSpeed 3-hybrid P790 (2021) irons (4-PW) CBX-2 GW, SW & LW ER7 Putter Q-Star Tour DIVIDE / Tour - Revolver XL 1500Li Cart NX9 HD Pro Rangefinder / S20 GPS Watch + Launch Monitor Denver, Colorado Home Course: Eisenhower Golf Club, USAF Academy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badfish Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I have a gap between 200 and 220 in my bag. I can lay off my hybrid but the results aren't what you would call consistent. The cheap route would be another sldr hybrid in a higher loft but I really want one of those Ping crossovers. Hope to see the used price drop now that they are plentiful on ebay. wbealsd 1 Quote S57 DG S300 stiff M1 430 8.5 Matrix Black Tie Tour Wedges stiff SLDR 16* mini driver Fuji Speeder stiff SLDR 21* hybrid Fuji Speeder stiff Futura Superstroke mid slim 2.0 project (a) #7's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peejer Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Well, I pulled the trigger on the irons today. I ran through the clubs again on the launch monitor, did the custom fit thing and I have selected the Mizuno JPX 900's. The numbers and grouping was significantly better with the Mizuno's vs Ping G Series vs TaylorMade M2's. I did the custom fitting thing too...added 1/4" and 2* upright. We'll see how it goes...but I'm excited. It'll be a week+ till they arrive, and sadly - I'll be on business travel. There's a little buyer's remorse, because it's a lot of cash for them - but if the store experience translates to the course, I'll be elated! -- P.J. I've got a new set of irons on the brain!
