@rbsiedscIs your handicap a 30 still? If so just think about getting lessons instead of clubs. or both.

It’s trending down. Will know more come may after 2 months of reporting scores. Right now is the off-season out here so I am also not playing to score, but instead test out clubs in other situations or treat these as practice rounds.

Gah!  Missed out on a in the wrapper TM SIM 10.5 Driver Head that a local fitter sold for $150.  He listed a handful of last years stuff (SIM, SIM Max, G410, and TS4) all for 150 each.  

I have no need for it... but for $150 you can bet your arse I would have tried it. hahaha

Today I’m thinking about a Radspeed 5-wood. I said that the one thing that could make me consider upgrading the Speedzone 5-wood would be if they included infinity face on it. It seemed like a logical next step.

Haven’t hit it yet... but if I like it I may order it with the Motore X shaft, over length with no tipping... so I can plug it right into my TL driver so I can test that out. Kind of a 2 for 1 deal haha

See if you can get your hands on a Cobra MIM with the wide low bounce to try out.

56* has 7* bounce and and 58* has 6* of bounce.

I have the 60* with 4* of bounce and it does right lies great, but the sole width adds a touch of forgiveness on strike too.

Thanks, haven’t bought a wedge in a while. It’s hard to try because not many LH in stores.

Thinking about switching putters. Finished up most wanted blade
Putter testing last week and started mallet putters yesterday. My results from yesterday compared to my results from blade putters seems to indicate that I putt better with a blade putter.
When I was testing the exputt I saw some indications of the same thing.

Still have some of my blade putters for the past, may be time to do some more experimentation with my currently owned putters or just buy a new putter!

That art of putting. There’s no more personal club in the bag!

I’ll be interested to see what you end up with. Before trying the ER2B I would have thought it was all wrong for me. But now I feel like other putters look out of sorts. I love the way the single bend black shaft blends right into the club head. And I’ve always preferred the smoother more rounded shapes with soft corners like the ER2 has.

If you could find left handed Vokey's in store, they make both the 56 and 60 in an M grind with 8 degrees of bounce. I feel sorry sometimes for you guys that hit from the other side of the ball and how it's difficult for you to find stuff to try out. Good luck to you!

I’m a lefty, like @Rickp so rather than search for his post I’ll reply here....

i have a SM7 58* M grind. Rick, it’s a great club from bunkers, but trust me it’s not magical from tight lies or compacted sand. It’s better than a high bounce wedge, but for players at our level, technique is usually more the issue than a few degrees of bounce.

Keep in mind we’ve been playing a lot of wet courses this winter, and the combination of soggy, tightly mown turf and muddy, compacted sand will play havoc with anyone’s short game.

ive been having success using more of a putting style stroke with either an 8 iron or PW lately. It’s not as precise as a 52* or 58* specialty wedge, but I’m finding it a lot easier on CPO days.

I’m a lefty, like [mention=69092]Rickp[/mention] so rather than search for his post I’ll reply here....
i have a SM7 58* M grind. Rick, it’s a great club from bunkers, but trust me it’s not magical from tight lies or compacted sand. It’s better than a high bounce wedge, but for players at our level, technique is usually more the issue than a few degrees of bounce.
Keep in mind we’ve been playing a lot of wet courses this winter, and the combination of soggy, tightly mown turf and muddy, compacted sand will play havoc with anyone’s short game.
ive been having success using more of a putting style stroke with either an 8 iron or PW lately. It’s not as precise as a 52* or 58* specialty wedge, but I’m finding it a lot easier on CPO days.
 

Thanks for the tip.
The Bermuda “rough” here is as tight as the green! I need a 56-58 with less than 12* bounce, 10* might work. Primarily for over green side bunkers and other obstacles. Plus I’m bored and need a new wedge

If you could find left handed Vokey's in store, they make both the 56 and 60 in an M grind with 8 degrees of bounce. I feel sorry sometimes for you guys that hit from the other side of the ball and how it's difficult for you to find stuff to try out. Good luck to you!

The stores offer to order wedges if made LH but I like to touch/feel B4 purchase. I can order from a number of internet sources for usually less cost.

Thinking of copying @chisag's former setup with a SIM DHY to pair with my super hybrid that is coming in. Would really need to off load a lot. Maybe I should just tweak my 0311X instead since it is similar profile to the DHY. More so between the UDI and DHY.
