I am not sure if I’m ready to move away from the 4 iron yet. I’ve also been watching for a Seemore Mallet type of putter. I love my FGP, but would love to try the mallet. Anyone have any recent change success stories from blade to mallet? I play the PING 425's. I have a 3 Hybrid and in the woods I have the 3 and the 7. I have to say that the 3 hybrid is just great, I am not a huge hitter but I can get that 180 and I find it launches very well. I also love my 7 wood, it is a bit shorter but lands on the greens very well and holds better than a 3 wood or hybrid. I personally think you cannot go wrong with that set of PING hybrids/woods. My trainer liked my 7 wood so much he wants to get one.

Hammer_Hunt64 Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Man, I like this topic! haha I've been obsessed with looking into equipment recently. I'd love to pull the trigger on a combo set of Sub70 659 CB and TC but I'm not sure I play enough to justify doing it. I also may not be on the ball striking level I need to be to get the most out of them. I've gone as far as plugging all my old equipment into the "trade-in program" area on their website to see how much I could get out of the ones I'm replacing and all the other stuff just laying around in the garage. Barring a full iron set I've been considering a utility iron, like a 2 iron, just for some fun off the tee, haha. Still, as much as I'd like to constantly be getting new stuff, I'll have to play a lot more to make it worth it....alas, someday! cksurfdude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpersad Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 I keep hearing about how a 7 wood is a cheat code. Now I want one. Bad. And my hybrids are from a decade ago. Old TaylorMade RocketBallz. I’d love to replace those with some newer technology as well. But I’d only do one hybrid instead of two I think Other than that I’m quite happy with my set. cksurfdude 1 Quote 40 year old Canadian golfer. Driver swing speed 113mph. All distance no accuracy.

They are very reasonably priced promoted as getting the ball up in the air high and are available as low as a 40gram class shaft so they will be lighter than the stock Pings which should equal more ball speed. If this looks good on the 5H a 3 H with the same shaft is coming my way. Not bad for around 100$ and that will include hosel adapter and GP MCC+4 grips.

I had 7 wood before and when I bought my PING 425s last year I did get the 7 wood. I have to say it is really a great club, likely the most consistent club in my bag that I can hit without a worry. And it cranks, it will get 165 or so when I connect. I do use it on slightly shorter par 3's, for example say a 150, because I don't trust my 6 iron so I just lay off it a bit with the 7 wood, and it just has such a nice trajectory and when it lands it is stopping quickly. For me it is my go to club much more often than my 3 hybrid or wood. I never use my 5 wood either. cksurfdude 1 Quote 425's- 5i to PW, UW G400 Driver, G425 3W, G425 7W, G425 3H 56 degree Hi-Toe wedge Glide 60 degree Evnroll ER3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im more comfortable with the hybrid if i dont have a clean lie than the 7 wood. IF IF IF lol I get more height from the new shaft I will dial the loft up or down to gap to my 6 iron which is my lowest iron and probably add a 4 or 3 H . I have room since I dont have any iron lower than a 6. I have high hopes for the new shaft and may even try the fairway wood version in my 7 wood but its 45 bucks more . To be honest theres 1 hole at my main course I can cut over the trees off the Tee and cut the corner with the 7 that people without a high lofted wood cant so its my cheater lol.

richk9holes Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 7w tryout for me always begins in romance and ends in frustration. I think it's because my swing is on the violent side rather than smooth. I swing harder and want it to go further. A 5h does this, a 7w just goes higher. My dad is the same way, he bought a BB21 7w he was hitting well at PGA SS, fell out of love, went back to ping g30 5h. He gave me the 7w, beautiful club only played 3 or 4 times, I liked it the first 2 rounds, but ended up trading it to Call.

Went through this finding a wedge to play next to the Apex AW. 52/8° vokey wasn't right for me but bending 50/8° to 52/10° was goldilocks.

Wondering if moving to a different profile type would help and also not cause me to have bad habits. Something like an rdx blue or GD or even a try at Otto Phlex. Have you tried the True Temper Project X hzrdus smoke yellow shaft? Counter balance low spin lower launch, yet very user friendly. I love this shaft! Maybe get a fitting and give this one a try.

Has my best driving season ever last season with Ventus black.

ChuckZ Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 On 4/8/2023 at 2:41 PM, Fred Mitchell said: seems odd the other T models are listed as 2021 and the 300's as 2023. Any possibility of a staggered rollout and the 300 is the 1st model? Was in contact with Carl's customer service and they confirmed that those on sale are the 2019 T300 releases (Titleist changed over all the AP1, AP2, AP3 series to the T series in 2019). Next release was 2021 which are currently in stores and catalogs and now the 2023s will be released this fall. No staggered rollout for these clubs. Have been discussing the new clubs with the Titleist rep at events we work together as well as discussing which shafts I should get my Titleist certified fitter.

GolfSpy TCB Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Steel Fiber Aerotech or Fujikura Axiom VeloCore for irons... Discuss! Haha. Just wondering if anyone has had a chance to swing these two shafts side by side (or at least had a chance to test out the Fujikura Axiom shafts)? I'm considering an iron shaft upgrade at some point in my future and will try to do some testing of my own (I have tried the Aerotech i95... great shafts). But Fujikura is... well... Fujikura. Doing some due diligence here... cksurfdude and tdroma98 2 Quote Titleist TSR3 9* (A2 setting) Driver - Graphite Design Tour AD UB-5 R1 Titleist TSR2+ 3 Wood - Graphite Design Tour AD UB-5 R1 Srixon ZX 5W Callaway Paradym 4-PW Titleist Vokey SM9 50-08, 54-10 & 58-08 Scotty Cameron Super Select Newport 2.5 2023 Titleist ProV1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronpaulm Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Looking for any and all options for a driving iron or a hybrid-iron. I currently switch between a 3 iron and a 3 hybrid with a 4 hybrid that stays in the bag, but I am looking to replace the hybrids with irons. Does anyone have any recommendations or ideas? I've tested the calloway driving irons for this year and I hit them well, but want to hear how you guys finish off the top end of the bag and also what has been your experience if you switched from hybrid to iron or vice versa. cksurfdude 1 Quote EPIC MAX LS 9.0 MAVERICK 3WD 15 APEX 21 3 HYBRID APEX 19 4 HYBRID 5-A APEX CF IRONS 52 AND 58 ZIPCORE RTX 10 BOUNCE WEDGES SCOTTIE CAMERON KOMBI 2012 PLAY IN A LOCAL LEAGUE. 26 YEARS OLD BEEN PLAYING FOR 14+ YEARS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
