ER2.2, Glide 2.0 Stealth in 50,54,58, and a 4i replacement, maybe an 818h1 if none of the 2019 hybrids pique my interest.

Contemplating trading my Scotty for an ER2. Problem is the ER2 is 34" and I play my putters at 36". I've got no problem lengthening it myself, but I was reading something about Evnroll's shafts are weighted near the grip and extending it would mess all of that up... Anyone know anything about this?

I think they are just back weighted with a heavy grip or actual weight. The shaft itself should be a pretty standard single bend shaft. Evnroll’s typically have a different headweight based on length.

While there is an Evnroll “standard”, that doesn’t mean it is right for you.

If you watch some of the fittings with Guerin on YouTube you will see that he adjusts the back weight for each person being fit.

Got ya! I don't really plan on getting a fitting done, as there isn't anywhere near me that does that. Just didn't know if they had a special shaft or anything that would prevent me from adding the extension myself.

Email Evnroll CS and ask what headweight they're recommend. Their CS is great with fitting recommendations

Still shopping for 54 and 60 degree wedges. Have my eyes on the Maltby M+ series, anyone play them? I could get them assembled with KBS Hi-Revs for $60 delivered. I was looking at the mid-sole options for both. Only thing stopping me at the moment is my concern on whether I would get use to a slightly thicker-soled wedge. For the past couple of years I've pretty much exclusively used a Nike SV Tour 56 degree for just about any type of shot requiring a wedge.

Sole and bounce is one of the most important aspects of selecting a wedge (with loft/yardage gaps being the most important).

Having some difficulty waiting for the demo days and new equipment to come out. I went to Club Champion about a month ago and hit the TS3 driver great!  Hard to imagine anything beating it out.   

 

Also looking at the r motion club analyzer for the winter, but I don't that I can justify buying the driver and the club analyzer.

Thanks. Never have paid much attention before now, and I hate to spend $60 on something that won't be helpful.

We have what I would call average to soft turf conditions here, and average to firm sand. When I had my 56* Nike, I played a lot of open-face flop style shots, though with a 60* I potentially wouldn't use that shot as much. Really looking for something that will help me in the 25-75 yard range, as I have a 48* gap wedge that is just too much club for that range.

The M+ comes in Tour, Mid and Wide soles. Heavily leaning toward mid-sole for the 54* as an all-around club, and potentially the wide for the 60*. I like the idea of having a very wide and potentially easier to hit 60*, especially for the plushy rough that I often chip out of around the green.

Keep in mind (and i'm still learning this myself) that I understand that there generally should be 4* between wedges. Since you have that 48* gapper already, consider filling in the remainder of the bag with a 52*, 56* & 60* (if needed). I'm am not a total authority on this at all, but based on my own set, I'd think that you may have too much of a gap between your current 48* club and a 54*. I'm pretty sure I would. Again, just something to consider as "generic" advise. cheers!

Thanks. Never have paid much attention before now, and I hate to spend $60 on something that won't be helpful.

We have what I would call average to soft turf conditions here, and average to firm sand. When I had my 56* Nike, I played a lot of open-face flop style shots, though with a 60* I potentially wouldn't use that shot as much. Really looking for something that will help me in the 25-75 yard range, as I have a 48* gap wedge that is just too much club for that range.

The M+ comes in Tour, Mid and Wide soles. Heavily leaning toward mid-sole for the 54* as an all-around club, and potentially the wide for the 60*. I like the idea of having a very wide and potentially easier to hit 60*, especially for the plushy rough that I often chip out of around the green.

I love my Vokey D grind for just the reason you mentioned - it's great on greenside rough. It's also great in medium to soft sand 

My 54 has the S grind which has more trail edge relief so it does a bit better from former conditions. 

You need to think about what types of shots you play, and from where, with each club so you can make sure you fit them into your needs

Keep in mind (and i'm still learning this myself) that I understand that there generally should be 4* between wedges. Since you have that 48* gapper already, consider filling in the remainder of the bag with a 52*, 56* & 60* (if needed). I'm am not a total authority on this at all, but based on my own set, I'd think that you may have too much of a gap between your current 48* club and a 54*. I'm pretty sure I would. Again, just something to consider as "generic" advise. cheers!

The wilson c300s are extremely strong lofted, so with a gap wedge 48* he might be able to only fit in two more wedges in his bag.  

I did notice that he doesn't have anything between his 3W and 4i so he could potentially have another wedge if he doesn't need a 5W or 3H.

Assuming he is going to add another club at the top of his bag and his gap wedge is 48*, a 54 and 60 solution would be fine if it covers the yardages he wants to play.  

Another option would be to go 52 (bent to 53) and 58.

That's exactly what i have in my bag - GP=48, then 52,56 and 60. With a difference in the bounce between the 56 and 60.

Agreed. Very helpful. 

As you can tell, I'm still tinkering. This is the first time I've seriously committed to playing golf better and also the first time I heavily researched anything before buying. I started last summer with a low-spin, unforgiving driver (Adams Super LS) and irons that were a little too much for my skill set (Nike CCIs). Truthfully bought both because of their looks and name rather than for their fit to my game.

It is correct I still do not have something between my 3W and 4 iron. Not sure what the best play is there yet. I really struggle with hybrids, so I've considered a 5W in that spot. Until I improve and get a little more distance out of my driver (a great shot for me right now is 225 carry, but generally sit between 92-94 MPH driver speed with closer to 210 carry), I start running into gapping issues at the top of my bag with the 3W/5W/hybrid/4 iron all coming pretty close to each other.

I play a lot of shorter courses and par 3s with my in-laws, who are in their 60s and don't hit the ball very far. So, up until now I've rarely had a need for too many clubs at the top or bottom of the bag. Generally, for the past two golfing seasons it was a 5-PW off the tee, a 56* to chip if I missed the green, and then the putter.

I played a short par 36 last weekend and did not use the 3W once, opting for the driver, 4 iron or 5 iron off the tee, depending on the distance I wanted to play in.

I really do think I will eventually want to add that 5W, or perhaps a driving iron (hah!) if I ever get my ball striking where is should be. And because of that, I think I am going to go ahead and start with the 54* and 60*. They are at least reasonable in price, so should I change my mind I can also order another one and swap them myself. Worst case I end up with a wide variety to choose from based on the course.
