Started playing in 2006 with a full set of Wilson Pro Staff multi-metal. Then …

Driver – TaylorMade R7 Quad, Cleveland Hi-Bore XL, Ping G410 Plus

Woods – TaylorMade R7 steelhead, Ping G410

Hybrids – TaylorMade Rescue Dual, Ping G410

Irons – Mizuno MX-23, Mizuno JPX 900

Wedges – Mizuno MP R series, T series, Cleveland CBX 2

Putter – Odyssey White Hot Rossi, Ping Karsten Series

 

I can see that I might come off as brand loyal, and maybe I am. As a left-hander, I can’t really test all the clubs I’d like, so I started out by buying what was available and stick to whoever is showin’ the love.

This a fun thread and certainly brings back quite a few nostalgic memories.

Won’t run through every club, but two of my fav iron sets I’ve owned were the Mizuno T-Zoids and Titleist 962Bs ... regret parting with both. 

For driver it’ll be the Titleist 975J and the game changing Taylormade R7 were two personal favs. 

Will always have a soft spot for Precept golf balls during amateur/youth golfing days.
