cksurfdude Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Also thinking about a hard case. Heading down to FL in a few months and sending my clubs via shipsticks. Any recommendations? I know hard cases aren't necessary but gives me peace of mind. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy SKB is supposed to be one of the better, more durable, ones but.... They are a bit on the heavy side, imo. So the case plus your bag and gear can surpass the weight limit. Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

I really just have a mental block. I left at least 10 putts really short the other day, which caused most of the 6 three putts. I also put 2 well past the hole that caused a couple as well.

Derek666 Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 I'm on the lookout for some new irons and have been for some time, to be honest i'm always on the lookout for anything that significantly outperforms my current gear and altho i've found several sets of irons i'd happily game i tend to find the irons that give more distance and don't necessarily compromise on dispersion give me that flyer type shot especially when hitting from the tee when you catch them a couple of grooves high on the face which makes them useless compared to my (Some would say) obsolete 5 year old CB irons or my even older (Even ancient) blades. I love what Cobra are doing and the fact they offer some fantastic shaft options without the expensive upcharge is a big deal for me so im patiently waiting for the newer versions of their irons to hit the pro shop. I used to in the past just replace my whole bag every year regardless of improvement or not but i must say i've totally changed my ways (It's party time for the other half!) and expect some sort of noticeable gain before pulling the trigger. Saying that it's great to stand up with a 5 year old driver and knock it past your playing partners new £400 toy (Not in a nasty way it's just me and my playing partners like to have fun when playing and things like this are like ammunition for the banter during a round!).

TBT Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Thinking about changing putters myself, I've been using the same Metal X Milled #7 for about 4 years. I am still a decent putter according to my stats, but I just don't feel like I am making as many of the 5-10 foot putts as I used to.

TBT Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Do you want a similar shape or are you looking for something fresh? Honestly I am not sure, I have played the face balanced mid mallet type for awhile now. I probably need to find a good putter fitting somewhere and let that dictate what I play.

arobledo1293 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I would love to get some ap3s. I have a mix of mostly game improvement irons but do have some Nike pro forged irons with stiff flex shafts and love the feel and performance off it. I think the ap3 would still provide that forgiveness but looks so much nicer than game improvement irons so I would love to game those.

BDoubleG Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I posted a while ago about the Mizuno irons, and I'm still thinking about them...so much so, that after playing with Titleist (714 AP2 and 716 CBs) for the past couple of years, I went back to some MP-15s to experiment (with a couple MP-H5s in the mix for the long irons). I've only been able to play some sim golf so far this year, but I think they're keepers.

cnosil Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Really eyeing a bettinardi putter. I always see new awesome designs popping up and ive heard the feel is unreal. Bettinardis are nice putters. Feel/sound is very subjective. Bettinardis typically fall toward the softer side especially if you get one with the fit face. But there are other variables that affect feel like face thickness and milling.

Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk Aesthetically, I don't think there's a nicer bag than the Hoofer. However, their dividers are annoying in terms of club tangle. I'm not a huge fan of the look of my Sun Mountain 3.5, but the quality is insanely high, and the dividers are never an issue. It's one of the rare times where I chose function over form, and for someone who is extremely shallow, that's huge.
