Could those be a modern day equivalent of the older ball in terms of compression? Those should work. I just got a double-dozen Wilson Zips. Zero-compression core. Gotta be squishy. I played a quick round last night to get some feel. I forgot how good those Apex 4 shafts feel. And my grandfather's Titleist driver outperformed the Sounder (a little bit lighter, with a softer shaft in it). Next up I'll need to try out the Hogan. That Zebra putter is definitely... lively. The ball really leaps off the face.

sirchunksalot Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 I took a trip to the range today and got some practice with my regular set and brought a couple of my classics to make sure I can still hit them. I took a short (8), a mid (5), and a long (2) iron along with the driver. I hit a few a little heavy, but they still have to be the most accurate clubs I own. The 2 iron off the tee might be a go to if the driver acts up, and I actually hit driver better today than ever. I had a few just die out of the air, but with range balls I didn't expect much. I'm hoping the Wilson Zips will spin more off of it. cnosil, Tom the Golf Nut, tommc23 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirchunksalot Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 It's not the best video I've done, but here's a couple of swings of the 2 iron off the tee today. The last one I tried getting it with the selfie video camera, so it's backward. To quote Inigo Montoya "I am not left handed".

BIG STU Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 OHHHHH! Decisions decisions like DJ there. Let see to make it fair since I play those every day no Machogans or Muirfield Hogans. HMMMMM Can play the 54 Precisions or even the 41 Tommy Armours with pyratone shafts. Woods John Smalls can testify he saw about 1/3 of the stash. Let my back heal up some. HMMM may play one of the sets of FC-4000s. Putter will be either a Ironmaster , Bulls Eye or maybe my hickory shafted Otey Chrisman Calamity Jane. I have 1 dozen brand new PGA brand balata balls or a dozen new Maxfli Elite wound 90s.

There are also a few of the DT Wound 90's but I am not sure if they are older than the ProV's or not. I would bet some of the Top Flites that were in those buckets are just as old as the Professional 90's but I don't know how to confirm it. Yep the DT 90s are older than the 392s.

cnosil Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Went to the local used club store to see if they had any classic blades. They had a few sets but way above what I wanted to pay such as Hogans, Wilson Staff, and MacGregor and none of the bargain blades that I they had previously. Guess I am going to have to do a thrift store run to see if I can put together a cheap set.
