CG2 WITB-Final Setup

[Golfspy_CG2]

I’ve been meaning to do a WITB this year, but by the time I got around to taking pics, some new boxes showed up..and well you know

But after a lot of trial and and actually not much error I have arrived at the setup that will take me through the rest of the year. 
 

Driver: Titleist TSi1 9.0 Aldila Ascent 40g R 

FW: Titleist TSi2 16.5 GD IZ6 60 G 

Hybrid Titleist TSi1 20 & 23 Aldila 80G 

Iron 2021 Titleist T300 5-P MCA Red 65g R

Wedge: Vokey SM8 50.10F 54.12D 58.12D

Putter: Scotty Cameron Special Select Newport 2 35”

 

 

Yep, I know what they say about having an all 1 OEM bag.  That you are hurting yourself somewhere if you do.   Well that may ultimately be true.  But I also feel If you are confident and like what’s in your bag, that is just as Important and possibly more so than any technical difference.  
 

So this is what I’m rolling with. One substitution that could be made. I have a U505 coming that could replace the 16.5 Fairway wood.

Awesome selection of sticks right there!   

Excuse me while I go stalk the BST thread for the castoffs!!

How long will this bag configuration last? I'm taking bets...

Well the office pool has the over/under at 2.5 weeks.  I tell them they are crazy

The big question mark is the putter and probably the first on my list as a possible change.  Based on your posts the others seem pretty solid.

Adam Scott? is that you?

that bag

love the setup Rob!  I nearly walked out of PGASS with that bag earlier this year... super premium feel all around.  

[russtopherb]

Solid setup right across the board, Rob. Love everything from the bag right down through the putter. Those T300s are legit.

I mean...if you're not trying everything, how could you possibly know you have the best possible setup

There is.  It was on loan that afternoon to someone demoing it.  I forgot when I took them out for the pics.  But it’ll be back in its place soon.

The MVP goes to the Ping Glide 58 that made it a whole whopping year+ and two WITB photos.   Now, if you had to make a WITB best of the best to play for the next 5 years out of all of those, what would you choices be?  (Nice sneaky little Nike Vapor in there too)

[GFATDH]

Very nice bag. If going mono-brand I think Titleist is hard to beat. Especially wedges and putter.

You missed the Futura 7 X7M that lasted two full years.  I still think that might be the best putter I've had.  It's close with that and the PING Tyne 4.   

Interesting question on the best of WITB.  I'll have to give that some thought and post it.  Of course it will be just the listed version as many of the actual clubs have moved on

The Vapor is funny.  I had just started my job here at the Golf Course and the Nike rep at the time (he's now the TaylorMade rep) was one of the first ones I met and was showing us the new lineup.  He showed me the price we get for personal use, and I said sign me up

It wasn't the best driver I've ever had, but it got some good comments on the color

Great looking bag! Love the T300s. Plus the Tsi line is

I agree completely, I keep waiting for someone on tour to put in a T300 4 iron or something for a long iron, but in reality they'd probably go with a T200 or U505, but I'm sure one of those guys could hit a T300 4 iron probably 270 and as high as Spieths shot went on 17 from that side hill lie
