Hey all names mark and this is my second rendition of WITB below is a link to my original (and will be an ongoing year to year update on this 2.0 thread)

Here is my 2021 setup:

Here is my 2023 setup:

Future 2024 to come!

I meant to reply to this earlier, but I really like the set-up you have there. Love the CBX2 wedges and the red and black grips. The Golf Pride multi-compound grip is one of my favorites.

Might be changing wedges. I eluded to it in the how’d you play today. Idk if my swing has changed a little and I’m not digging as much? But sand used to be a strong part of my game and I can’t get out of a green side bunker and lots of misfits. Going to try some SM7s on my round tomorrow and see what happens.

thank you though I do love these grips and the 3W is fantastic

I don't think you can go wrong with a Vokey. Hopefully they'll get you back to normal out of the sand.

Did almost a complete revamp this year with new bag, irons, wedges and a recently added 3 wood.

Had a lot of fun getting fit for most of what’s in the bag right now and these are my long term set until I can’t swing these shafts! 
 

 

Great title!!!

I can go wrong with Vokeys.  For some reason they don't get along with me.  I gave my 52, 56 and 60 to my wife.  She loves them.  She never had a 60, and the Vokeys replaced her TaylorMade set gap and SW.

I like more bounce than many vokeys have with the full grinds. I know vokeys come in higher bounces but, I find a lot of used vokeys in the used bin with low bounce.

Update for 2023!

Bag has changed alot in a few years. This year coming into the season with the below and most likely will not me changing much.

My driver is pretty pure, struggled end of the year last year but its been extremely dependable. 3Wood again is very dependable, very different than the driver which is a baby fade, the 3Wood is the exact opposite and I do not lose much length which plays really well on different shapes off the tee and is very viable off the deck going at a par 5. I have the 2 driving iron which is new at the end of last year. So far it has been a dependable club, very straight and is a rocket. The 4H and 4I are interchangeable depending on what the course is like and what wind is like. I prefer the hybrid but of late last year preferred the iron. Will be diving deep into the Cobra irons this year and look forward to getting the review out there after a few rounds. My trusty wedges are staying 48/52/60 SM8 and 7's. Lastly the lovely EVNROLL putter is a firm bag spot, not going anywhere!

Keep your eyes out for the Cobra review if you're interested, cant wait to get some rounds in and do justice to Cobra.

I count 14 in the bag photo, but 15 in the others (assuming the forged tec solo is part of the set) so what gets dropped during most rounds?

So that’s the hybrid and iron. Both the same length and loft. Hybrid plays higher flight and is better for longer par 3s for me but if we have some wind I prefer the iron. So I carry. It’s to the course lol game time decision. 
Sunday I am playing on cape cod so ill 99.9% probably bringing the cobra iron over the hybrid

@GolfSpy_APH Mark always has his footwedge ready too.  It doesn't go in the bag so he doesn't count it against his 14.

It’s stashed at work still in the package, trusty foot wedge 

[GolfSpy_SHARK]

If anyone was curious about the foot wedge….I have this on my desk at work….no it doesn’t go in my bag!

I found that it has too much loft and I can't get the ball into a good location;  the side of your foot is much more effective and less obvious.

wow ..nice ...

With the way the 4 iron has been playing the hybrid officially has a long term position in the basement right now. Driving iron has fit fantastically in the gap I needed it to. 3Wood is coming in per arccos 240-250 and the driving iron at 220-230 then 4 iron at 190-210, enough gap in between where if I needed to hit a specific number I could ease up on the driving iron.

Long and short of it. Saw your shot of the day and recall some back and forth in the past so I was interested in the bag.  I was just commenting today on a recent bag change - shift from P790s to the Gen6 0311s which included the Sugar Daddy wedges when I got set up with 3-PW; as much as I like them, I find myself going back and forth on that decision.  I have been playing the Mizuno T20s (blue) for a few years and I picked up a set of T22s (50* & 56* in the blue ion again -  the color) right before I got converted, can I get an "Amen" .  After playing with the T22s today I am back to questioning myself and am hard pressed to not buy another set of the T22s to - replace, swap in on occasion with, take turns with - the SD2s.  Don't get me wrong, the SD2s are sweet wedges and have a great feel, but I do things with the Mizzys' that is probably illegal in some states.    Anyway, the long winded bottom line is, the Mizuno T series wedges are  and if you are every back on the fence over wedges I sincerely suggest checking them out.  

 

To clarify on the "Bag change," I am keeping the 790s and putting them in a bag on the east coast (ZX7, M3 3W, P790 3-PW, T22 50/56*, Evnroll ER2-silver) and the Gen6 irons will be my primary WITB (G400, Gen6 3W, 0311 Gen6 3-PW, Sugar Daddy 50/56*, Evnroll ER2-black). Right now I have the Garsen Max on the ER2-black and the Garsen Quad Tour on the ER2-silver, trying to decide how that is going to flesh out.  

Cheers brother,

Scott

I had a mizuno wedge a few years back, before I paid much attention to anything. Had a spinner shaft in it. I went to my first fitting and had something like 15,000 spin I believe, some insane number and the fitter just laughed.

I am so comfortable with my 48* and 52* 110 and in I hit pretty much every shot with one of them. I most likely will not get away from SM but never say never

15 THOUSAND RPMs!?!  Holy rotations Batman!

I have the standard wedge shafts, I think.  Now I am trying to remember.  I know so many guys swear by Vokey.  I went from scoring with Cleveland wedges to a shift when the T20s came out and honestly I haven't looked back, until now; looking back at the Blue Ion, what a pretty color LOL!

And there’s the u505…

Hows the Cobras holding up?  In the never ending pursuit it looks like a pretty solid bag.

The U505 was an on the whim purchase to just to see how a driving iron could fill a gap, most reliable club in the bag.

Cobras are great need to get back to that thread and post some updates, a lot of golf changes for me in two years swing wise but the cobras just feel great and I’ve played my best golf this year.

Loved the review.  The shaft looks great too.  I have always wanted to try a non steel shaft on my Scotty.  I will have to try to find a Fujikura used somewhere to try it out.
