So just wondering if/how anyone's bag has changed over the length of the season. And what are you looking to pick up in the off season (a particular club or one of the new releases): As for me, I did pretty good this year. Stayed with my BStone bag for most of the season, but once all the...

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)....

Well... it's almost Spring. I would guess most OGers are like me at this time of year. I've been spending the past few weeks picking up some addtions to the bag (well, in my case bags...:-) ), doing some tweaking and hitting the dome occassionally to try out new sticks. Let's see what's going to...

What products can I use safely on the graphite shaft of my new driver to remove the adhesive? There was a UPC sticker that I had removed....but it's adhesive remains. Tried using liquid dish detergent and warm water. Toothpaste didn't work either. Anything else? I don't want to damage the nice...

Does anybody know what a set of Wilson Staff irons with aluminium, yes thats right, aluminium shafts are worth? My friend is looking to sell these wich are about 40 years old. Any info on where to get a price would be appreciated. Thank You Mark:)

Hi, buying new clubs in the next few days and looking at the Taylor Made Irons ( Burner and 360's). I tried them both and they didn't seem to make much of a diffrence( loved them both). My question is i'm hoping someone on this board is a Taylor Made freek and can tell me the diffrence between...

Has anyone bought from Rockbottom Golf lately? I'm interested in what your final shipping costs ended up looking like. I would normally ship to a NY UPS store and drive down to pick it up but I don't have the time right now. I don't want to see my $100 bargain double in cost by the time it...

With all this talk of what's in member's golf bags, be it good or bad, thought I'd start an interesting thread. When you look at someone's signature that has what clubs they are playing, who's do you think is the nicest? Now I don't necessarily mean your favourite clubs, just from your personal...

Can anyone help me out with what to look for in a fake set of Burner 2.0 irons? It has been brought to my attention by someone that this may be an issue. Thanks.

I'm just wondering what everyone's honest opinion is on these component sets. I remember back 10 or 15 years ago, my brother had a component set I played with. I found them to be very cheap looking, and the feel was just no there. I have been reading a little bit on the new components, and some...

The power of Nike Golf's geometry has led the way in taking the moment of inertia (MOI) in clubhead design to its highest level, it has made the award winning SasQuatch (SQ) driver by far the winningest driver on the 2006 PGA Tour - and now it's gone squared. With today's announcement of the...

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...

Assumption: a pure draw starts right of target line and gently curves back to target line. Who would benefit from a draw bias driver? Golfers who: 1. Pull? - No, because the ball would curve farther left 2. Pull/Hookers? - No, because the ball would curve farther left 3. Left to right...

I did! I hit it today in GT. I went to see my buddy who is Assistant Manager at the Edmonton South store. He bugged me to try it out. After being a firm non-believer in the club, I have to say I've changed my mind. I tried out a 9.5 shafted with their Diamana Stiff shaft. I was hitting a...

Just went to GolfTown here in North Edmonton. I hit the Mizuno MP-60's, and the Titleist 695CB's. According to their screen(I don't know how accurate it is), I was hitting the CB's longer every shot. Both clubs look similar and feel similar. I found the CB's softer than the MP-60's. The...

I just took a trip to Nevada Bob's here where I'm out of town for work. I tried out about 6 different Cameron putters because for some reason, this seems to be the fad nowadays. Then I moved my way over to the TM putters, then to the Yes putters. THEN, I look up, and I see these black putters. ...

I have heard several comments from salespeople, reviews on various websites etc... that OEM drivers really do not include the REAL or same shaft that you can buy aftermarket. For example an Aldila RIP shaft is not the same as aftermarket, or that a Diamana Blue Shaft is not the same as...

One of my drivers has an open face and I hit a nice fade with it, works great on fairways that go right. The other driver has a closed face, works great on fairways that go left if I want to hit a draw. I'm not skilled enough (yet) to hit a draw or fade with the same club, so I'm thinking of...

Hey Guys, This year I picked up an R11 driver (10.5 - dropped to 9.5) regular shaft when I was in the States. I had tested it at the club and was virtually certain that this was the driver for me. Since then I can't seem to get it going and am constantly slicing the ball...a mean slice at...

With what parts would you put them together?

I've gone from Bridgestone to pretty much all Taylor Made in the past month. If I like the Rescue Dual TP I got today, I'll be ditching my last remaining Bridgestone club, the Airmuscle. Anyone else done a complete overhaul?

I was just wondering if there is any difference between tour stiff shafts and stiff shafts. Is it just a term that companies use to make their clubs seem more professional or are tour stiff shafts actually stiffer? I am referring specifically to the tour stiff shafts in Callaway X-16 irons. I...

this is the exchange i had with an ebay store via email ================== Hello, I am interested in these clubs but first I wanted to know the serial numbers on the clubs so i can call Callaway and confirm that they are authentic. Thank you. ================== 14000+ positive is...

Hi, Last week, I was fitted (by a Ping rep @ GT) and placed an order for G15 irons on Friday. I was told 7-10 business days before I get the clubs. For those of you who have ordered Pings from GT before, how accurate is this 7-10 day estimate? Am I likely to luck out and get them sooner :-)?...

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....

First Look, any thoughts? http://www.pgatour.com/equipmentreport/2014/06/23/Titleist-915-quickenloans.html Played Titleist Drivers (975,905,909,910,913) forever and the 915 looks radically different to me. We'll have to see I guess. More pics on GolfWRX.

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...

Well I know its early, and for lots of guys the season isn't over yet.. Just wondering if anyone had any equipment they were planning on adding to the bag over the winter... I myself have a couple of plans. I have norrowed my putters down to 2 for now, so hopefully that will stay the same (could be...

I am back playing golf after 5 years of not playing. I have been playing off and on for 40+ years. I am at best a bogey golfer, although I do have moments. I purchased a Cobra driver and a 3 and 5 TaylorMade dual rescue hybrids this year. I have also taken several lessons and my game is coming...

I've been looking to buy 3 and 4 iron hybrids, but can't figure out the difference between those and a 5 wood (when they are the same degree). What is the difference between these clubs? Also, any suggestions on which brands make good hybrids? I've heard Adams Golf and Cleveland Golf produce...

I was wondering if anyone has played these Nike Ignite 2 irons that Golf Town has on sale for $300.00. I know they are a re-development of an earlier nike iron (not sure which one) done so for the big box golf stores (Dicks, Golf Town). I was looking at them at Golf Town the other day and in terms...

I had my doubts but yesterday i confirmed it, this “twistface” is total BS!!! I went to Golf Town yesterday and closely looked at this new M4 driver and compared it to the M2, i looked at both clubs from all angles, top, bottom, sides, at adress, there’s no twist!!!! If it’s not noticeable...

Hey guys, Wondering, what is the best online retailer for used golf clubs? Looking at purchasing clubs but don't feel like spending hundreds of dollars. What would you guys recommend for retailer? Thanks!

Hi all I've always wondered what the most popular irons are in the Ottawa area. Rather than checking out everyone's "WITB", I thought this would be easier. I'm torn between keeping the ones I have and buying a newer version, X-18ps vs X-Tours. I also like the TM Rac line. What's in your bag? Any...

Just wondering what would be your dream iron set if money was not an object.Something that you drool over whenever you see a picture of them. For me it would be the new Cally prototype forged irons sold at GolfTown for 1400.00. Remember money is no object and indicate what they sell for.:):)

What is teh difference between the new R9 and the TaylorMade r7 CGB Max Limited Driver... Thanks

I'm looking at purchasing a new Driver. I've always been a Taylormade guy. I have played the Cobra Flyz and preferred it over my SLDR. Now, I'm undecided whether to buy an M2 or a Cobra F6. I find the Cobras very forgiving and nice to hit. The Taylormade Drivers are distance machines but can...

This is the new web site for Matrix composites. so new you wont even find it on google yet http://www.matrixshafts.com/

All these new drivers at $600 with endless adjustments here and there are they really worth it or is it just to make us buy new clubs? Well I say! They don’t work, not for us mortals anyway; I’ll give you 2 different scenarios to prove it. First of all, the problem is never the club but the...

I have a set of Black Nickle Vokeys I've been using for three- four years now. Noticed the face and grooves getting seriously worn down. When does one know if its time to regroove/ replace wedges? Is regrooving even possible or did I just make that up lol :-)

Ok here are some pics of the bag for the comming season.. I have removed the paintfill on the TPS.. I like the look. Missing from the pics are 54 TP black Y cutter wedge.. Futura. Otherwise ready to rock. The last pic is the back ups..

I'm trying to figure out the bag for the up-coming season and I'm looking for some opinions re: wedge set-up. My two primary sets of irons both have 47* PWs I currently have a traditional 52, 56 and 60 degree 4 wedge set-up but I'm thinking of going with a 52 58 this year to gain an extra FW or...

Pics from golfwrx.com These irons looks great! I could see these in your bag Jordo.

What is the normal difference in inches between shafts that have a HIGH kick point and ones that have a LOW kick point?

Took one out for a test drive today. Shafted with Diamana Blue Board. Interesting to say the least. Par 5 480ish: Played in a scramble today with some friends. When one of my team mates put one out in the middle of the fairway I knew I could swing away. Aimed between two trees at the...
