Bens197’s almost bag 2018


Recommended Posts

So...I drank the proverbial kool-aid this year. Mr. UPS just brought box 4/5 to the house and I thought I'd share some photos.

 

Hogan Golf had posted last month that if you purchase a full iron set, they'd send a promo HI iron as a bonus. I took a shot and emailed their staff despite making a purchase within the month and thought maybe they'd honor that purchase. Without fail, they said they'd be glad to send along one.

 

As a thank you for honoring that, I decided to purchase two additional HI irons. The 21 arrived today, 24 got here two weeks ago and the 27 as well as a 52* equalizer is set to ship tomorrow. So the set was originally 23-47. My 21-24-27 doesn't truly honor the 4 degrees gap but it gets me one additional long iron with a decent gap.

 

I installed a Hi-Rev shaft last week to make my TK 59 length closer to my set and so far, I couldn't be happier with this setup.

 

I'm toying with the idea of a 17* iron or hybrid but in the meantime I am feeling good.

 

Loving these clubs so far. IMG_5869.JPGIMG_5870.JPG

Thanks! This was the first big upgrade in over a decade for me so I'm excited (if you can't tell). They're as good as anything I have ever hit. The big question mark for me was how the KBS shafts would feel. IMO they're a good match, the soft forge and these shafts are responsive and offer a great ball flight. I've only used DG shafts and although I'm not good enough to differentiate subtleties I will say they feel really nice.

Really nice bag!

Driver: Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  R flex   - 44.25 

Fairways:  Ping G410 5, 7, 9 wood  Alta CB red 65 R flex

Hybrid:  Ping G410  26 degree  Alta CB Red 70 R flex 

Irons: Ping G430  7-PW, 45, 50 Alta CB black 65 soft R flex 

Wedges:  Ping 195 S54, E58

Wedges and irons are - 1/2” and one degree flat 

Putter: Sacks Parente Duke 32.5”

Ball: Titleist Pro VI or Callaway Chrome Soft X ls

 

While not at the same time I was fit for every club in my bag as well as the Pro VI ball. I use the chrome soft x ls on my league course.  It has much softer softer greens than the club that I belong to. 

I’m on a mission to shoot my age - lifetime lowest round is 66 and I’m currently 67.
