What's in YOUR bag? 2022 Edition

[azstu324]

I realize that there's a forum chat room dedicated to this topic but it promotes more individual posts rather than allowing us to just scroll and view everybody's gear in one thread. So I've started this to see if it catches fire.

This way we can all share and talk about our 2022 goodies in one place... so put some extra shine on that gear, take some good pics, and share with the MGS community what you hope to bring your game to the next level in 2022!

Cheers, Fairways & Birdies y'all!

I really didn't want to lead off my own thread with my own WIMB but it looks like it's been crickets in here since I posted the thread.. so here goes nothing! 

Starting off with the actual bag.. I actually bought this about mid-year in 2021 but it's not going anywhere anytime soon. I absolutely love the versatility convenience, and quality of the Titleist Hybrid 14. 

It has perfect sized open front pockets to carry my JBL Flip 5 speaker. 

Putter: I'm rolling this beautiful Edel EAS 1.0. Thanks to MGS and Edel, the putter was custom fit and built for me and it's helped a ton on the greens. 

Wedges: Maltby TSW 50° and 56° paired with a higher spinning Kuro Kage Black shafts. D-5.5 SW so a good bit of weight added to the head. 

Irons: 5-PW - This is a set that I just built and am very excited about putting into play. The company is called ERG. They're a component DTC brand that caters mostly to individual builders and component shops who sell to builders. They are paired with TT DG 105 S300 shafts and Lamkin Sonar Tour grips.. all playing at D-5.5 and are just very clean and classic looking 1025 forged CB irons. 

4 iron: I held onto my Maltby TS-1 as it just seems to round out the top end of the set perfectly. My ERG 5i is 26° so at 22.5° and a higher flight this is a perfect match to the set.

3 UDI: Cobra King forged 18.5° with Kuro Kage Black shaft. #fairwayfinder

3 wood: Cobra F6 at 14°. Paired with a Fujikura Motore X F1 6X. This thing is a rocket launcher on a rope! Still can't find a better club than this. 

Driver: Mizuno ST-Z at 10.5° paired with a Fujikura Motore X F3 6S. Went with Stiff to actually give some spin back. It's very stable even at 110+ mph and just gives a nice medium height with a baby fade. 

2022 will be the year of accuracy over distance in hopes to get to mid single digits and I think this will be the set to get me there!

Great looking setup. Love all the details your provided

[Deepred]

Those ERG heads look like they could be hollow, I expect that’s where the extra weight comes in. 

[Deepred]

Currently I have 

PowerBilt driver

Kenneth Smith 3w

Maltby hybrids and irons

Wilson, Spaulding and Ram wedges

Golfsmith putter

Driver and 3W have Aldila Voodoo SNV7 shafts

Hybrids have Maltby hybrid shafts

Irons are being reshafted

 

So 7

If I go ERG irons that would be 8

lets see who tops that!

I've played hollow irons before and would put money on them being solid 1 piece. I'd be wildly surprised if they were hollow. The website doesn't mention anything about them being hollow and usually that would be a selling point. That said, there's not much info at all about the clubs so I'll say I'm 99% confident that they're solid.

I didn’t mean to say they are hollow, it’s just that they have rather thick bodies for forged blades.
