CBX 54* wedge.... thinking about trying a cavity back vs blade style since I take more full shots with the 54.

 

Also: my 13 y/o son is taking his first lessons and starting to get interested - thinking about the Wilson JGI set for him

Should have taken some swings with mine the other day. Have the 50/54/58 cbx2s and they’re just fantastic (didn’t show the other day) but that was a very odd day

@GolfSpy Stroker I can vouch for Mark that he was not playing up to his usual standard then.  Those wedges have been pretty dynamite for him, and it doesn't seem like he lost any workability around the green and they look great too.  I would definitely check them out!

Back on the graphite shaft thought train.  During most wanted testing I have been grabbing clubs with graphite shafts to warm up and today I grabbed a PXG with Mitsubishi MMT shaft.  I have to say that that shaft made the PXG feel amazing.  Haven't been a big fan of the PXG clubs during testing; granted I wasn't fit for them,  but that Mitsubishi shaft!!!  My swing felt soooooo  good.  

Also has me thinking if the lighter weight might be a benefit instead of the 120gr I currently play.   Will probably start a used club search for something with an 80-90 gram graphite shaft.  

 

... Honestly I don't know why any serious golfer plays steel in their irons considering the graphite iron shafts that are available today. Posted this before but I started with 130gm NV Tour shafts that had 1.5* of torque and were better than DGS300's in every way. Next I played NV Pro 105's and loved them. VS Proto 100's were even better for my swing so I tried the VS Proto 85's and they were just too light for me. I have found 95gms is my limit and obviously that is the #1 weight played on all the tours. There is just something to fit every swing and with less wear and tear on your joints as well as a kick point/torque with a dampened feel that still provides plenty of feedback, I just think graphite iron shafts are a no brainer if you play and/or practice a couple times a week. I took a chance on the Kuro Kage Tini 105 gm shafts that came with my T100-S but I absolutely love them. 

... That said, 120 gms to 80-90 gms is a pretty big jump. But you demo so many different irons I imagine you have a feel for what works for you as far as weight is concerned. 👍

I have hit many graphite shafted irons over the years. I didn't find any of them to be suited for me.  I will be 61 in September.  I have lost distance in every club.... and I hate it! But.... I very well might look into Graphite in my irons when I purchase new. What the hell... driver and fairway woods are graphite???

... I could be wrong, but my guess is you just didn't hit the right graphite shafts. Considering Recoil and Steelfiber alone there are 95, 110 and 125 gm shafts. The 125's are beasts for aggressive hitters or young and strong guys looking for some joint pain relief. The 95's are played by Fred Couples and Matt Kuchar so they are certainly substantial enough. The 110's kinda split the difference. These graphite shafts can but don't necessarily add more distance, unless you are coming from a 120-130 gm shaft and play the 95's. They just feel so much better and even after a long range session, you don't feel beat up. At 61 your joints are taking some un needed wear and tear with steel. Took me forever to talk my playing pard into using them as he was a Project X guy forever. But he started getting some elbow and wrist pain but after switching to graphite those aches and pains disappeared.  

... Obvious the guys/gals on the Champions and LPGA Tours play a ton of graphite in their irons and I think when the PGA Tour guys start making the switch, we will see more and more of them.

I think I have reached that point where I want graphite.  I know it is a big jump from 120 to 80/90 and that may not be where I end up but it is still difficult to find lots of graphite shafts to demo.  That weight range seems to be where most graphite shafts generally fall.  

 Most of the clubs at MGS are steel and the graphite are generally lightweight and regular or senior flex.  I have tried Harry's Fujikura's,  but they X flex was a bit more than I could handle.   I have been reading your posts in the Titleist thread and knew you liked them.   

I will probably just keep an eye out at my local store since they have a large used club inventory that changes over a lot.  Thanks for your input!

I will seriously consider Graphite in my next purchase. I'm getting older... and it's slowly sinking in...lol. I have bad shoulders and a not very good back. I want to play as good as I can for as long as I can,,,lol. My medical problems are not internal.... all are joint related, due to my endeavors in my youth...lol. I love golf, and I want ro enjoy it for as long as I can. I respect your opinion on the game and equipment.

After years of playing telephone poles, I was enlightened by the feel offered by the Nippon Modus line. I agree with your thoughts on graphite and like the idea of switching over in a decade when I hit my 50’s. 
 

It has more to do with making it easier on the body and having fun. Let the club do the work without hurting you. I can get behind that logic.

Usually once or twice a season I get a hankering for some Pings irons, G25 or G30. Why? I don't particularly know. Probably due to their reputation and how long they stay in people's bags. 

I also really want to see if I can get my son to say he wants new irons so I can take my D200s back from him 🤣

Besides all the Cobra gear (pleeeassee can I get a shipping notification today?!) I’m thinking about picking one of these or a Bagboy/Clicgear comparable.

I have the Caddytek and it has served me well these past 2-3 years but the foot brake is kinda lame. Wish it had a hand brake like the Clicgears, much less cumbersome to use. Other than that, and a bolt coming loose, I'm pretty happy with it.

I'm having a crisis of sorts, I want to buy something in a bad way but don't know what. I've been thinking wedges, 5 wood, hitting net, launch monitor, planemate, just to name a few things. Can't buy them all, but I'm going nuts thinking about stuff. I'll figure something out, but I just had to vent to people that would understand. I can list the why's and why nots of everything and I'm over thinking it.

I'm having a crisis of sorts, I want to buy something in a bad way but don't know what. I've been thinking wedges, 5 wood, hitting net, launch monitor, planemate, just to name a few things. Can't buy them all, but I'm going nuts thinking about stuff. I'll figure something out, but I just had to vent to people that would understand. I can list the why's and why nots of everything and I'm over thinking it. 

What are we talking club wise? Vintage or modern? Planemate is up there for sure.

Still thinking about the new Cobra King Utility Iron. It just looks so good, and I feel like a utility 4-iron would be the perfect safe-off-the-tee club for my bag. The problem is I would probably end up with back issues if I got it since the couch isn't particularly good for sleeping on.

Modern, I'm needing something in my gamer bag on the top end that's a little more consistent than my 3 wood. I love it, but we have days we don't get along. I saw some Cobra F8's on sale the other day and it got me thinking.

That can be the downside to new clubs.  When I got to swing some of the Cobra stuff for the #COBRACONNECT CHALLENGE it was like a week before that was announced... but after seeing the Forged Tec's 4 iron I have to imagine the utility iron is just about perfect.  I'm personally more of a hybrid guy at that spot, but it seems like its a good blend of help while maintaining a smallish footprint.  

Perhaps you should order the Utility and a memory foam pad for the couch at the same time and really treat yourself right? 😂

I can't say enough about my love for the 5-wood.  I seriously doubt I'm losing any distance off the tee with it compared to a 3-wood.  I've hit the g30 5-wood 14 times since I started using Arccos and my smart distance is 241 yards with a long of 261 (I actually outdrove @Lacassem's driver on that one 😉 ).  I'm positive that a 3-wood would not be nearly as good for me.  I tend to hit them very low and they're useless outside of the teebox for me.  

I hit a friends F8 fairway before too... damn good feeling club.
