Forum: Golf Clubs

I am tired of hitting into the screen at Golftown, is there anywere in Ottawa where I can demo/borrow a driver to attempt to hit in real life situations. Let me know if you know of any.

Some of you may be interested in knowing that for a limited time Golf Town (at least in Auroro, Ont.) is selling their CG12 wedges for $100. I just bought a low bounce, 54 degree wedge - great for compacted sand. Whether a similar sale is taking place in the Ottawa area, I do not know. Enjoy.

Strolling through the Golftown the other day I noticed something unusual looking on the wall. Upon closer inspection, they were the Adams Idea Pro Black. Man are those puppies slick looking. Forged blades in a black ion finish shafted up with KBS black nickel shafts. Like stealth fighting...

Itsy Bitsy Spider I recently purchased one of these.....amazingly more accurate from further out but i dont sink them like a blade putter from in close. Maybe i am not used to it yet for the feel and touch from inside... Any thoughts?:wallbash

Was informed about some of the good deals on rockbottomgolf.com so I checked it out. Was able to pick up a new taylormade itsy bitsy spider putter, adidas tour 360 ltd shoes and an adidas trophy belt all for ONLY $256 US shipped(with a $10 British Open promotion discount on shipping). With our...

Is it just me or does it seem that GT and other places are reducing the price of the clubs early this year? I was in GT tonight and noticed that both the Cobra and Nike Drivers are already reduced in price. Does anyone know if they are planning on coming out with something else or are they just...

I have never really gotten into hybrids ... until now Any opinions on which hybrids are known as "the best" or most popular? I see from the classifieds that many "want to buy" Nickent hybrids. Any comments are welcome. Thanks.

I am in the market for a new driver. I have tested square heads with great success. I have read some forums about square vs regular and understand that square clubs generally have more MOI and therefore are more forgiving. My problem is i don't want to buy a square club just for the sake of...

Looking for opinions on the R7 Draw driver. I was wandering though the local SportMart store the other day and noticed they're selling these for about $140. I told myself that I'd never buy another driver without a good test run first, but $140 caught my attention ... If you've played this...

Hi, Just a question as to whether stores generally carry drivers with extra stiff shafts in their inventory. I've never seen anything more than stiff at golftown. I've been using a beginner driver that I got from a sportchek set, but I had a lesson tonight, and my instructor said my swing...

I finally jumped the shark with my g10s, and am moving on. I demoed a set of Callaway x-22 irons last week for a round, and really liked them, but wondering if anyone has any opinions / experiences with the Taylormade Tour Burner irons. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am looking to purchase a set of 'as forgiving as possible' irons for someone that shoots in the mid to high 90s. Most likely I would buy used so looking for recommendations on sets that might be 2-3 years old now. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

What is my 1 year old Titleist 907 D2 8.5 Mrh with Aldilla VS prototype 65s Byyou Driver worth? Excellent shape no sky marks

I saw on a post some one sharpied the red gel back on their irons, Who ever did that can you post a pic of it for me Thinking of doing it as well just want to see it before i do it

With the amazing technological advancements lately in golf, it makes me wonder why the professionals still go with blade irons over cavity backed forgiving irons like the Adams ones, or even the ones that the rest of the big brands have. Adams just comes to mind as the most 'forgiving' clubs since...

Ok,.. So I am currently playing a set of TM draw Irons, that I hit well... I dont hit them great,.. I hit them well. Went to the range with a buddy of mine who just picked up a set of Ping i3's with a "blue" dot on them (can someone explain the different dots on all these effing clubs please)....

I'm looking to buy a new set of irons, right now I'm using some ping knock offs Tour Model ll or lll's I believe..I've lost a few over the last few seasons so its a real mish mash of clubs. I've started to play quite a bit this yr and am scoring not bad, so I figure it's time to upgrade. I really...

I bought my current driver about 3 years ago (Tourstage 350z 8 degrees), and at the time was a consistent fader/slicer. I've worked on getting a draw ball flight over the last couple years, and have had some success. Recently, as I've gotten more consistent at drawing (fades are rare these days),...

I'm a relatively new golfer (5 years now) and just bought a new "cheaper" driver. I tried a few out in the sim and the Adamsgolf was most consistent going straight and avg 180 - 200 yds without even trying to crank it. I was surprised because I was sure the big bertha or slightly more...

I'm looking for a new putter , has anyone heard anything about the <TABLE class=ProductDetail cellSpacing=0><TBODY><TR><TD class=CategoryTrails colSpan=2>PING i-Series Piper H Putter </TD></TR><TR><TD class=ProductImage vAlign=top><!-- ONLY CERTAIN PRODUCTS HAVE FRENCH ASSOCIATED PICTURES...

Has anyone hit both of these sets enough to compare them. I know the i10 is a little smaller and has less offset. Any comments? thanks

http://www.todaysgolfer.co.uk/upload/42142/images/ben-hogan-bh-5-iron.jpg here are my irons....the clubhead is moving away from the "black piece" of the shaft, and now there are gaps as big as 5mm. It's noticeable to the eye, but not for play. It seems the longer-mid irons have more separation....

Bought a new toy the other day, going to try it out at Men's night tonight...

So like many of you I'm thinking about buying myself a new toy, in this case a set of A4 Adams Irons w/Graphite shafts -- I see them on eBay stores/sellers out of the US for ~$630CAD + Shipping but here @ Golf Town / Golf Clearance Warehouse they are 999.99 for the A4OS / 1099.99 for the A4. I...

I am looking for a 185 yd club, which for me is probably a 4 iron, which I do not have. I really like my new (2007) Burner 3 and 5 woods as they consistently give me 225 yds and 200 yds respectively off the deck. I am considering either a Burner 7 or the hybrid (Rescue). I have a 3 and 4 Adams...

I'm in the marker for a new driver and I'm interested in your opinions around which is the most forgiving driver out there. My miss (assuming that my new swing continues to take hold) is a power fade. Since it isn't a full blown slice and also because I hate the look of off-set woods, I'm not...

G'day I was looking around online last night for clubs and google spit out a result for this site of wholesale and dropship with no minimums called vankle.com. So i looked up some clubs and here is what I found.... a full set of TM R7 CGB Max Driver 3+5 woods and full set of irons for $240...

Hi Everyone, I'm a beginner looking to purchase a budget set of used forged irons (250USD Max shipped). I tried out my friend's Mizuno MP60s and love the feel of them but then... I don't have much experience (nor the cash). Blades vs Cavity Backs don't matter to me since I always continue...

I'm not really sure if this is the correct location for this thread, but I really wanted to post it as I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but I figured it should be posted. I've always found the extremely low trade in rates at major retailers over the last couple years to be...

Hi all. Long time reader, first time poster. I have a question about wedges, and a specific situation that has been happening more frequently as my game comes together this spring. Basically, I'm hitting my gap wedge (part of TM R7 iron set) too far; flying over greens from 100-105 yards out...

Year after year you hear and read claims about new clubs hittting it farther than the competitors' model. Component and OEM alike. Geek and SMT have gorillas at the other end of the stick. Nike claims that their new STR8 hits it farther than the R9. On top of that you have the low spin launch...

When my Driver was brand new, I used to put my headcover after every shot. Now, I just keep my headcover inside my bag. The shininess is fading away :P Maybe the next time I'll put my headcover, it's going to be a farewell & Hello to my new upgrade!

So, I have one with one 12 gram and one 2 gram weight (came with those)....if I want to make the weighting truly "neutral", do I need to have two 7-gram weights (which would total the 14 grams that it first came with), or does it really matter what 2 weights I buy? Thanks.

Good day, I'm looking at changing my current driver (Ben Hogan C-S3 10,5*, Aldila 65-S). I narrowed down my options to 4/5 and I would like to get some feedbacks from that forum. The options are: King Cobra S9-1 F King Cobra L5V F (L4V as well but the L5V has a few settings you can change)...

Let me explain, I have just moved over to Hunt Club and noticed two things: tight mowed fairways and deep, thick rough around greens. Question #1: If I am looking for a Lobwedge for most shots around the green, should it be high bounce or low? I used a 60* with 6* bounce and it seemed nice. ...

Looking for advice: LOML is almost 6 feet tall. I bought her a nice set of irons and am looking for a decent driver for her. Would those of you who know more about this than I (hint: that's ALL of you! (grin)) suggest an extended women's club, or just going with an off-the-shelf men's club?...

he is thinking of going to a set of Mizunos or Titelist irons. What is forged and a little more forgiving than the Evolution irons IN mizuno or Titelist? thanks guys

I'm getting into hybrids, thought I'd ask some questions to see what everyone else plays. How many Hybrids do you carry? What lofts? What iron(s) has(have) it(they) replaced? What make of hybrid to you use? What distance do you get out of each hybrid?

Golfsmith takes over MacGregor http://www.golfweek.com/story/macgregor-golfsmith-news-052009

Was going to get a Callaway driver but then say Taylor Made had their own promotion too. So I got custom fit at Kevin Haimes and tried all Callaway and Taylor Made drivers and 3 woods. Ended up choosing the Taylor Made Burner driver and got a free TM Rescue 4. Loved the rescues, they've really...

I need some advice. Today I played (poorly, but happily) in my first GTA Amateur Tour event. After the round I learned that I had won a 2009 Rossa Classics putter. The options (in 33", 34" or 35") are the following: Daytona 1; Lambeau; Suzuka 1, and Fontana. I checked the Taylor Made site, but...
