revkev Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Many of us have been playing golf for a little no time. I thought that I would try a little thread about our favorites. Go down the line of OEMs that you have bagged and give us your favorite. No fair picking two - it must be your favorite piece of equipment (irons or wedges count as 1) from each OEM. I'll go first to set the example: Adams - Idea Pro Hybrid • Callaway - Hot x extreme fairway wood Cleveland - Voodoo Daddy Putter• Cobra - EZ fairway wood• Mizuno - 700 driver • Nicklaus - Iron max irons • Nike - Nike One Tour D golf ball • PGA- Tommy Armor Persimmon driver (oh boy) Ping - Eye Two Irons Ram - Tour grind irons SCOR - 60 degree wedge Taylor Made - Tour Spoon Titleist - 907D driver Wilson - C200 Irons (this was hard - I had a bullseye putter) • Clubs that I gamed when I was a 1 handicap. I used Ping wedges including my old Eye 2 as my gap wedge. Those clubs weren't necessarily my favorite all time in each category but they fit. I hated the Mizuno driver in fact. It looked like a pancake and sounded like crap but it performed so it stayed in the bag until I needed to move to a weaker shaft. I don't know if this will strike anyone's fancy but it was a fun exercise for me.

cksurfdude Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 There's been a lot of discussions about hybrids - eg. Love/Hate, or Replace a Wood with a Hybrid, etc. I started playing later in life, in my middle age I guess (53), so I didn't really get to learn early to hit long irons .. and my first several seasons I struggled with woods .. so I kinda had to go to hybrids. Over the course of several seasons I demo'ed or bought - then traded, sold or gave away - a BUNCH of different hybrids. Different manufacturers, different models, different styles, etc. Well, currently in the bag being carried over from last year - and what has become a true utility club for me - is a Callaway XR 4H. Heck, I even got a second one as a backup! WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...

There were various models of Wilson blades, a few other woods I can't remember. But the barn at the golf course I worked at had piles of old equipment, and we'd get the pick of the litter. Too bad I didn't know what I was using at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
