Stuck in the bag: What won't you update in 2018?

[GolfSpy Dave]

Was thinking about the state of the bag as the summer winds down and I realized that there are a bunch of clubs that I am not interested in swapping out next year. Curious what you have in the bag that will be persisting on into the 2018 season.

 

Here's my set:

 

Driver: PING G400 - Secure in bag

Fairways: Cobra F7 3W and 5W - Secure in bag

Hybrid: PING G - could go, not life changing

Irons: Mizuno JPX-EZ Forged - good, but could go - maybe G400

Wedges: Cleveland RTX-3 54/58 - Dig these a bunch, likely secure but may try CBX

Putter: Odyssey O-Works Red 7s- pretty locked which for a putter is a surprise

[null]

Driver, fairway, irons and putter are locked in

 

My hybrid is going to need some more time to win me over.

 

If SM7s are released, they'll likely be replacing my Sm6s

[GolfSpy_APH]

I'm pretty happy with the majority of my bag.

Things that may change are driver. However that's a yearly thing which I always have a eye to update.

Club between iron and 3 wood. Haven't really found that club which suits me well there.

 

3 wood (cobra f7) won't be going anywhere as it's the most consistent club in my bag.

Irons I'm very pleased with as well as my putter.

I have two sets up wedges which I love both so can complain there either!

[JAGolfore]

I will be updating some clubs next year

 

Driver: Titleist 915 D2. This will be replaced by the start of the 2018 season

 

FW: Callaway Steelhead XR 4+. Just got this. Played one round with it. It's going to be in the bag a long time.

 

Irons: Srixon 565/765/965 combo set. No changes very good clubs.

 

Wedges: Cleveland RTX 2.0 50/54/60. Will be time for new wedges. Will just upgrade these.

 

Putter: Taylor Made Spyder OS. This too will not go anywhere for a long time.

Only thing that isn't getting a look is the putter and my cobra baffler 4w. Everything needs to earn its keep

[silver & black]

The only clubs that are "safe" are irons and putter. Everything else is up in the air. If they get replaced, they will be replaced with used stuff.

[BIG STU]

The stuff in my signature is pretty much set. IF and I say a big IF I choose to play in a stipulated event I can swap out the 3 wedges with 3 conforming ones. I may switch the irons now and again when I want to play blades with modern woods and hybrids but mostly I see the 2013 Cally X Forged in the front line bag

[ole gray]

My Bettinardi Queen B #9 is without a doubt a keeper.

I don't see any reason to switch a club out. But then again, I say that at the conclusion of most seasons. Will try my best to show some self control because I'm really happy with what I've got working right meow.

I switched all my irons and wedges to Ping ISI white dots last month and having a blast with them. Love the funky looking heads in my bag but the performance is where they shine. Such easy clubs to hit. I think they will be staying in the bag for awhile.

 

I'm very happy with my putting now that I moved to a face balanced design with the Zing 5. My Nicklaus Air Max 3-wood has been in the bag for 15 years and isn't going anywhere.

 

Driver and Hybrid are the only ??? In the bag right now. Maybe by spring I'll finally get a driver fitting for a G400. I'm not happy with the consistency of my hybrid and am considering replacing it with a 5 or 7 wood.

Driver: currently epic, kicked out the M2 but is getting out performed by a Nike vapor pro

 

Fairway wood, original x hot 3 wood is locked down

 

Hybrid: Adams xtd Ls 22* and Mizuno mp h5 1 iron aren't going anywhere

 

Irons: z965 irons are on lock

 

Wedges: vokeys are heading out the door

 

Putter: TP Mills fleetwood took over for the spider, but still mulling it over

 

Ball: Switched back to Taylormade tpx

 

As for the bag Titleist deluxe cart bag was a HUGE let down

Maybe looking at some new irons in the new year. Not sure yet what direction I will be going but I'm thinking Mizuno. I have never gamed Mizuno irons before but the ones I have hit felt really good.

[jayjay0808]

Driver and irons are going no where

[revkev]

Nothing is likely to go though I could replace my wedges with essentially the same thing.

My fairway, hybrids, irons and wedges are all a lock.

 

The driver may be a bit shaky because of the Epic, Triton and F7, although a shaft change might alleviate that. The putter could be on shaky ground also because I have my eye on an Evnroll ER2.

 

The only other thing I'll be looking at is a Smart Sole S. 

[Canucklehead]

As far as clubs, the only one that has a chance of getting the boot is the putter (Odyssey toe up #1). Will likely look at getting properly fitted shafts driver to wedge

After the money I spent this year, I'm not planning any changes.

Right now, probably only one club guaranteed a spot in my 2018 bag.

 

Putter: Brainstorm Golf Happy Putter Blade V2

 

Thing feels so good in hand, and I am very confident even over that 10-15 foot range putt. I don't foresee it leaving my bag any time soon.  Everything else though, is on notice. Perform or get yanked.

[901_nick]

Driver, hybrid, irons, and wedges will be in the bag for a while. Highly unlikely I change putters, and will be a similar PING if I get the itch.

 

The M2 3HL has not outperformed my XR Pro 16* to the point where I can comfortably get rid of it, so we'll see about that spot.

[Camcmart]

While funds may be a bit limited with wedding planning, I'll still elaborate.

 

Driver: XR16 - definitely open to new drivers

 

3 wood: Big Bertha V-Series - done me really well, but Cobra has some enticing stuff

 

Hybrid: Titleist 913H 17* - just got put in the bag so not secure just yet

 

Irons: WS D300s - after testing these I'm a really big fan, but always open to other options

 

Wedges: SM5s - my short game is where I excel and I really like my SM5s but if the SM7s come out I may pick up some cheap SM6s or try out some RTXs

 

Putter: Cleveland 2135 TFi Cero - I love this putter and it may be tough to kick it out of the bag, but if something outperforms it, you can't say no

Just got new irons and wedges so the bag is pretty well set for the future except for...

 

putter - might see what evnroll has in store next spring, especially if they come out in a dark finish.

 

Driver - my fitter gave me a Wishon 919THI to try out for the fall and the thing is a monster. Let's face it, it's already a keeper.

[mdumble21]

Whilst I'm happy with the majority of my bag, it's really only my wedges that need to be replaced (mostly because the grooves are wearing FAST!!) and maybe my putter.

[DiscipleofPenick]

Everything is locked, but that could change if MGS hooks me up with some irons to test!!!!!

Would like to say everything, but knowing me all are open for upgrade.

J, do you have your ~200 putters on rotation?

[TBT]

My Cobra King F7+ driver....if you've been following the Cobra Connect Challenge then you know this thing is a magic wand when it comes to finding fairways

[Miboy62]

My Cobra Fly z + driver & Cobra Amp Cell #2 Hybrid for sure.

Scores have dropped the last two years because I have not switched my MP5 irons out.

They to are safe.

But those damn J40 CB keep calling me when I am in the garage.....,.play me Milo

[Peanut05]

I've got the Epic on the way this year, so it's probably going to stay in the bag throughout 2018.  My irons and wedges are usually pretty solid, so they'll probably stay as well as my putter that I've had for the last 7-8 years.  The only thing that may get switched out is my fairways woods.  I'm still hitting the X-Hot woods from several years back.  While I hit them really well for the most part, I may upgrade them just to upgrade them this year.  I'm not sure on that yet.
