Replacing my gap wedge and wondering whether to go with a 50 degree or 52 degree.(my present wedge just says G) My sand wedge is a 56 degree but not sure about my pitching wedge. Would 2 degrees loft either way make much difference? Thanks.

Just got a new Adams driver after trying it out at a demo day. Tried the Callaway and Nike drivers and didn't feel I gained any distance or accuracy over my Wishon that was on it's third season. I tried it on the Bridgestone ball testing machine and was gaining about 16 yds when comparing it to...

I'm thinking about changing my wedges but I just don't know which ones to pick. I really don't see myself going to golftown and chip in the screen since it won't give me a "real" chip shot (i.e. from thick rough for example). So my question is, how can you determine that a wedge is right for you? ...

Hi everyone, I am looking for feedback from anyone out there who has tried an FT-9... I currently use a Tour Edge Exotics and am thinking of replacing it with the FT-9. Thanks for the input.

Sick sick putter!!!! http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=5886716&id=119500444664 Reza, when are you getting one?

Just picked this up on a trade on the forum and played it this morning.Cant say enough about the quality of this club.Crisp sound and I actually hit it the same distance as my driver but straighter.It has made a believer out of me.I know there are a few Wishon fans on this forum and now I am one of...

Do you use a 52-56-60 or a 50-54-58 set up or other

Hi all, Any opinions out there? Currently, I carry a driver and 3 wood, then a 3 hybrid before my irons start at 4. How much added benefit is your average hacker (me) likely to get from a 5 wood given that I've got a 3 hybrid?

Looks like Titleist is going to start offering wedge customization. Starts at $150 for a TVD, but customization (stamping, toe engraving, etc) will jack the price if you want it. Sweet service! Deets here: http://blogs.golf.com/equipment/2010/07/titleist-vokey-wedgeworks-customization.html

I've been following an interesting debate on golfwrx. Seems like there are a lot of Taylor Made haters who accuse the company of smoke and mirror marketing. Here's the basis of the argument (I'm paraphrasing their words): - TM built their brand by paying players to use their gear, not because...

Cortino Proto FN 34/67/355g

Hello. I currently play a set of Mizuno MX 15's and wondered what the loft of the PW was, and what the loft of my Taylormade bubbleshaft SW was to see what I'm missing in terms of wedges, can't find necessary info on the web can anyone help?

so i played a round today and noticed halfway thru that my new 2009 cleveland launcher driver has a nice dent in the heel.. ive used it about a dozen times. looks like a ball hit there.. now i have skied a couple balls with it, ill openly admit to that but ive never heeled one that i can recall.....

How many of you bought a new driver during this season. And did it improve your game. I bought an TM R7 Limited driver in Houston last month and have really improved my driving both in distance and accuracy. I hit the first six fairways in a row on Saturday and finished with 12/14 with my...

Hi guys, I'm planning on buying new irons in the very near future. I've gone to GT and tried out several different models and have narrowed it down to a couple that I really like, one of them being the Ping G15's. Will I gain more by going to a place like say, Kevin Haime's and paying $85 to be...

I picked up a centre shafted belly putter but its too long. Is there any place in town that has an adjustable shaft belly putter that would determine the correct length i need? Then i would know how much to shorten mine.

Would it be possible to have some sticky topics in this section for the various club types? ie: Drivers, Fairways & Hybrids, Irons, Wedges, Putters. I know I'm probably just too lazy to bother searching but maybe just easier to reference peoples reviews of different products etc. Kind of like...

Not sure where I should post this so it can start here and if it needs moving then so be it. I am looking for a spray to use on a new Black Oxide putter to prevent rust. There are some listed over at Puttertalk but I cannot seem to find them here in Canada. Wondering what you guys and gals use...

Alright, I'm not naive enough to believe these golf wholesaler websites sell authentic golf clubs, especially when you see them selling a set of Ping V2 Rapture irons for $350 compared to the $1400 at Golftown, but what I was wondering is if anyone is aware of any obvious differences or...

I would imagine that the loft of your driver would depend on your swing speed, is this correct? What are the recommended lofts vs. swing speed?

Saturday on the first tee I noticed a rattle inside my driver shaft. It sounded like a chunk of something sliding up and down through the shaft. I checked and the head still seemed to be on snug, and I played 9 holes without any issues. After the first hole I didn't really hear it rattle anymore ...

I see that there are a couple of sale in the classified section.. I have the option for buying one but would like to get some opinion about this driver.. Couldn't find any decent reviews on the net but would guess like anything from Tour Edge, it should be a long & accurate driver.. Thanks in...

I have played Titleist 905-r for a few years, with NV and Proto Aldilla stiff shafts. I picked up a Cleveland launcher 10.5 Fuji with a "Fit on Gold" stiff shaft last winter and have tried it for about 10 rounds. I have found it like hitting a marshmallow. No real feedback. I have to look up to...

I went out for men's night on Thurs at the course i work at. Usually i just work through it, but i decided to delegate & go out. I was heading out with the F&B manager to snag my sticks out of the car & he say,"Why don't you take out one of the rental sets?" Well, we've got brand new burner...

I am looking at getting my Callaway Tour Blue TT3 putter refinished or painted. Anyone know where I can send it or if there is someone local that can do it? I want to have the yellow/gold fade taken off the top of the putter, I hate the colour and the fade. I am interested in having either all...

Hi, Just wanted to get opinions on what the best Callaway irons would be. I am looking for a set that is fairly forgiving, past or present. I have read great reviews about older bertha's and hawkeyes. Also heard some good stuff about the X series clubs. Just wanted to get input on what others...

Hi everyone, I currently play to a 5 handicap. I do not hit the ball extremely long, but I do keep it straight. I currently use a high end driver that came out about 5 years ago but I got it new 3 years ago on closeout. I ask you this: Would one of the new drivers (2010 models) result in...

That's correct, you don't even have to pay for shipping back. I just got my irons bent and the total was $20.

Hey All, Looking to pick up a new Ping G10 21* hybrid but can't find one from the various stores in the city. Is is even possible to order one directly from Ping, or do they not make previous models anymore...? :irked: Thanks Latch

Im having club issues!! I own a set of Cleveland Ta3s in Gun metal which I love the look of however my son likes them too and they are now in his bag! He is playing them very well and Im letting him have them. Ok not to worry. I purchased a set of used Taylor Made RAC LTs that seem to work so far....

Has anyone put the new method putter in their bag? It feels sweet on the carpet at GT, but it's always a different story outside.

Hi guys/gals, I have had quite the experience over the last couple days. First I had my Callaway FT purchase on ebay cancelled, due to the seller not having anymore in stock, and THEN..... after seeing a brand new set of G15's on kijiji, for $500 - I thought I would inquire about those. I had...

I am looking for a place that sells golf clubs that has a driving range. I don't want to hit into a simulator. Are there any in the city or close to it?

I am thinking of buying some new Callaway X-22 Irons for my birthday. Is anyone on the forum playing these currently, and if so, how do you like them/hate them/indifferent? Any and all feedback is good feedback. Thanks Break68

I was perusing the Scotties today and almost walked right by the brand new 2010 retail Bettinardi line of putters today at trainyards. Rolled the BB8 and a mallet or two. Wow these are some sweet flatsticks! If you have ever considered buying a premium putter, these are a little cheaper than...

Has anyone here every cracked a driver head before? I'm wondering because I did today at the range. The club is a Maxfli Powermax. Nowhere near high end, but not necessarily total garbage either(or perhaps it is since it cracked). It had probably less than a dozen rounds and a few range...

Hi All, I started getting back into golf about 5 years ago. At that time, my average golf score was probably anywhere from 95-100 but I also only had a chance to play about 10 times a year. In the last two years, I've been able to get out a lot more (at least 25-30 times) and have become a...

So I tested a few drivers out this weekend and settled on one I liked. It felt good, the screen I hit into told me the shots were fairly straight and the distance was good. The driver is last years Nike DYMO. The club is on sale at Golf Town right now for $198.00 (this is my range), I discovered...

my friend bought one of these a few years back and I posted pictures on the site. He now wants to sell it, if he is upfront with the seller that they are fakes, can he get in any trouble? how much does one charge for fakes sets? they aren't knock offs, they are fakes
