ejgaudette Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) I have been wanting to change my wedge setup. Bought my last set before I was older and wiser and wish I had not gone for a specialty gap wedge instead of a set wedge. I have wanted to grab a 50/54/58 set up as I tend to like to play lower rolling shots, and hit few full shots with my wedges. Alas I am yet to pull the trigger. One of these days I will, maybe go with Hogan or Sub70 to soften the blow.

edingc Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Planning on a putter purchase this winter. I was "fit" for a 33" Spider Tour Red two years ago, played with it all of 2019 and then club-ho'ed a 33" navy Spider X from @yungkoryfor this season. Just sold the Spider Tour Red, and the X still has some good value, so I could flip that to help with funding. Looking at some of the more "boutique" brands like Edel or L.A.B. Directed Force, but would be game to take a look at Bettenardi, Evnroll, etc. The torque balancing of Edel and Directed Force intrigues me. Biggest issue is going for a fitting. With COVID-related work restrictions I can't travel out of state (I think True Spec in Chicago would have been my choice of fitters), so that leaves me locally with Club Champion. I'm not really keen to go spend $100 at CC given some of the reviews. It does appear one of the local shops is a L.A.B. fitter, and I could always travel to the east side of the state where there is an independent Edel fitter plus a few other really good independent fitters. And then there's cost - a fully decked out Directed Force would run like $700 (assuming upgraded shaft to LAGP or BGT Stability). Not sure that a $700 putter is going to make that big of a difference in my game. I've just been horrific on the greens this year, and I'm really starting to feel like that is holding me back from shooting in the 70s more often. Far too many rounds with 35+ putts, and there are often several misses inside of five feet in a given round (more important than the total putts). (Yes, I know the DF putters are ugly.

I'm not really keen to go spend $100 at CC given some of the reviews. It does appear one of the local shops is a L.A.B. fitter, and I could always travel to the east side of the state where there is an independent Edel fitter plus a few other really good independent fitters. And then there's cost - a fully decked out Directed Force would run like $700 (assuming upgraded shaft to LAGP or BGT Stability). Not sure that a $700 putter is going to make that big of a difference in my game. I've just been horrific on the greens this year, and I'm really starting to feel like that is holding me back from shooting in the 70s more often. Far too many rounds with 35+ putts, and there are often several misses inside of five feet in a given round (more important than the total putts). (Yes, I know the DF putters are ugly. If it sinks more putts, I don't care.) $700 for a putter that is fit for you and might last a decade is well worth it IMO. That averages out to $70 a year Also when the rest of your bag was "externally financed" then shoot for the mf'in MOON! You'll still be in black figures financially haha. edingc and JohnSmalls 2 Quote Driver: Rogue ST Max LS Tensei AV Blue S 3w/5w: TSi2 Tensei AV Raw Blue S 4h: CLK 22* Hybrid Tensei CK Pro Blue 80HY S Irons 5-PW: 223 Steelfiber PR 95 S Wedges: RTX Zipcore Tour Rack 50, 54, 58 Steelfiber PR 105 Putter: LAB Link.1 Ball: Z-Star Diamond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I scheduled a fitting for Saturday. I'm thinking all black with the Stability Tour shaft.

StrokerAce Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 really need a putting mat. thinking hard about wellputt. birdie ball would probably be more fun but I have a feeling wellputt would be a better learning tool.
