Forum: Golf Clubs

Needless to say these lived up to their billing and then some. Specs: 3-PW w/ DGS 300, standard length, lofts and lies (for Tourstage, almost 2* from most OEM though) Distance: Clubs were 1/2 to full club longer all day. Most likely because of the stronger lofts as opposed to my 990s....

I just about popped a woodrow when I saw this on the TM website. Anyone have any ideas on when it is coming out and what the price is? http://www.taylormadegolf.com/product_detail.asp?pID=234&section=gallery#Large

What's the best way to adjust the alignment on my three wheel Sun Mountain cart? The cart pulls to the right. Perhaps more air pressure in the right tire??

SINGLE FREQUENCY MATCHING - WHAT AND WHY Eric H. Cook, P.Eng. In recent years you have heard and probably read a great deal about frequency matching golf clubs. Unfortunately, you have not been given the whole story and certainly not the whole truth about the subject of frequency matching. ...

I went to GT last night to test drive the XR Pro irons - it's a toss up between them and the Apex Pro's for me right now - a forgiveness vs feel conflict, as they are respective tops for me in those two categories. I also wanted to try out the Alpha 816 16* wood. Since getting the XR Pro 16...

Hi, I was thinking about using the Callaway online purchase and trade in (as GolfTown trade in doesn't apply to Callaway). Has anyone used this Callaway trade up before? Experience with it? Curious about Cost to ship clubs to them. Taxes/Duty as I assume it is coming from states....

Hello, I need some advice. I bought some 3 metal and 5 metal club heads and some TT Xl lite steel shafts for these clubs and I brought them to a 'clubfitter' I tried them out and hit them poorly. I am not a poor golfer and can hit both clubs from the rough, fairway and tee with no difficulty. ...

I bought the new cobra Fp irons this march and love em. I had them fitted and they play great. They do what they're advertised to do. Very forgiving on mi****s, Good control in my opinion and allthough I'm am just starting to learn how to "work" the ball, I can move it around a little with these...

Thinking of getting new irons this year. Has anyone has had the chance to play both the X18s and the X20s. Wondering if the X20s are worth the extra $400.00.

so boys, I designed a putter. I can't believe no one has thought to design something like it before but i've checked and i'm the first. I just wanted to know, what should be my next step? I have a meeting with the machinist I selected to mill the head to go over specifics but it should be good...

I have been pondering with the idea of going to blades, if for no other reason then the fact that I love the look and feel of them. i've only been playing a couple of years. I am probably an 8-10 handicap but getting better as the days go on. need your input on whether this is a bright idea or not....

Testing based on looks, feel, playability, forgiveness and distance. Drivers from first to last: Ping G5 TM r7 425 Tour Edge Exotics (very surprising) Cleveland Launcher Ti460 Srixon W-506 Callaway Fusion TF-3 Nike Sasquatch

Can anyone tell me the difference between these 2 drivers? I can't seem to find this information anywhere. Thanks, styxx

so i bought a ping rapture off these boards at the beginning of the season, and as much as i like it, i find it's too difficult for me to use, im still farily amatuerish and i slice this baby like crazy.. it's killing my game when i lose up to a 7 strokes from lost tee shots alone. sometimes im...

I know this subject has been beaten to death but I came across this article and thought I would share it. I am sure our own Michael Pare with his old staff blades will get a kick out of it.:-) http://www.golftodaymagazine.com/1106/chronicles.htm The Fear Factor - Choosing the “Right” Irons...

Can anyone tell me if there is a significant difference between the Ping G5 and the G10 driver. thanks

(For all who don't feel like reading this whole expose, need a recommendation for clubs for a mid 80s player who tends to have too much vertical ball flight!) I'm Hello all, long time lurker - first time poster, graduating from university this month and my parents said that they would buy me a...

I have this very good customer who came to me with a Nike Ignite 450 with a PINK SHAFT and steel tip. Without actually naming the individual, he wanted the shaft pulled and installed on another head with a new grip. No problem.After cutting the old grip off and removing the tape , I notice a decal...

I was interested in finding out if anyone has tried either the GX-7X-Metal Club or the C3iWedge advertised on the Golf Channel? If so, do you agree with their claims?

Would be curious to know if anyone has one of these or has tried one of these, 2010 or 2020 models. Suppose to reduce breaking putts by 80%. From what I've seen, sold online only. Thanks.

Just noticed these on sale...

does anybody know of any demo days upcoming? thanks!!!!

So, after playing a few rounds with dan this year (only person I play with who uses GPS) I've decded to purchase I unit. Please tell me everything I need to know about getting myself set up for this. I'm under the impression that I do not need to pay monthly fees for GPS. All I need is the...

Hey Just wondering if anyone knows of a place I can get a head cover for my Rossie Mallet style putter? Thanks guy's!

Today I played a golf course (Islesmere “ClubLink”) for the first time. I asked to use the Laser demo for the day. First time with a measuring device ever. This laser works with a little reflector that is installed on the top of the flagstick. You point the laser to the top of the flag and bingo...

I'm looking at getting an electric golf caddy. I hate carrying and don't love pulling my two wheeler. I've considered a three wheeler, but for merely three times the price, I can get a remote controlled electric golf caddy instead. Costco.ca has the Bat Caddy X3R for a somewhat reasonable...

I'll have a new driver in the bag this year thanks to Mrs. Claus. Knowing I can be a real pest to shop for, she opted for the simple route - a gift certificate at GT. ;-) Adding to it, my buddy just bought himself my 2014 XR driver (which I loved the feel of, but spun way too much for me), I...

so, here is my review. I bought this driver a while ago and had someone birng it to me from the states. I took it to GT today and wow. What a wicked driver. Its got the nicest sound when you hit it. The ball for some reason is straight and long. I only hit one hook and once slice with the...

Just got my Cobra X-Speed delivered FedEx today. It's shafted with an Aldila NV-X "Speed Tuned" Stiff Flex, High Kick, 60g. Has anyone hit one of these yet? I'm wondering what kind of trajectory I should expect out of the NV-X? I know I wasn't a huge fan of the NV in my R7. I hope this NV-X...

Just found out that Eric Cook was the first one who came up with the single length irons design. http://wishongolf.com/technology/information-and-qa-about-single-length-irons/

Just watched one of those "paid advertisements" on the Golf Channel, in which they were selling the Lovett Wedge. Advertised as primarily a sand wedge, but also as a scoring club around the greens, it looked very good. Their scientific claim is that the rounded leading edge and back-set hozzle...

Has anyone played this shaft? I just bought a 904F with this shaft and am curious as to the way it performs? I am not sure if it is the six, or the pro95, but it is stiff. Hard to find a lot of reviews on it.

I brought my Ping doc 15 into Golf Town a couple weeks ago and got a brand new one in return today! I bought this putter boxing day and played just under 50 rounds with it and the finish was coming off the face. It was very cosmetic and did not affect the playability of the club but they still...

Hello everyone just had a quick question about the taylormade spider tour putter coming to Canada! I thought it was coming in left and right handed but as of now on the taylormade Canada sight you can only pre order the putters in right handed! Just wondered if anyone was sure if they were going to...

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...

Hey everyone. I am a novice golfer and am looking to purchase a 56 and 60 degree rac wedges. There are two different bounce degrees for each club. Just wondering which one is a good around bounce for each wedge for a novice golfer? 56 degree - 12 and 14 degree bounce 60 degree - 7 and 12...

here are some pics of the new line of drivers the titleist/cobra companies are coming out with in early march. Titleist also has a pear-shaped 907d2, and cobra has the speed pro that will be out at the same time

I currently have a 58 degree and a pitching wedge in my bag and I'll looking to get another wedge. I'm not sure what the best combination would be though. I may get rid of the 58 degree and go - pitching wedge, 56 degree and 60 degree. Which 3 wedges do you folks carry?

What's in the Bag Mike Weir 'We built these irons from scratch.' I didn't sign an equipment contract until I found a company that was willing to work with me to design a set of irons. After I signed with TaylorMade, we built these irons from scratch and made them part of the 300 series. I...

I'm looking to purchase a good quality set of irons this year, and want to make sure i get something that's right for me. I don't want to spend a fortune (will be buying used, probably from this forum) and would like to find something that will last a few years. I currently shoot in the mid 90-s,...

Do they make a oversize putter grip to slip over existing grip? Sort of trying the grip without destroying your old one. In case you don't like it. Anyone?

TaylorMade r7 460 TP Driver ... the thing is listed @ 750$ + tax. I'd love to give one a few swings and see what it's all about, but I'm afraid I might like it and feel the need to buy it. Any thoughts on the high priced Taylor Made drivers, are YOU seeing a difference in performance that...

Yesterday on the 9th hole at Kanata I ripped a drive (220 yards :P), and heard a weird popping sound. I was pretty sure my driver just cracked. I looked underneath and sure enough it was separated at the seam. This driver was pretty new, only 6 months used but I got it off ebay so I'm...

Well, not really Cali, but the current bag is very retro!! Anybody else gaming "retro" sticks? Driver: Titleist 983K 9.5 w/ NV stiff (had a 510TP last season and loved the smaller driver) Fwy: Titleist 975F 14.5 and 18.5 with Rifle 5.5 Irons: Titleist 962, going to ditch the hybrid this...

Hi everyone, I have some ping i3 blades and I shoot a 98 give or take 5 consistently all the time. I can get some Ping Zing's from an old friend. As a high handicapper would i most likely see game improvement over my i3 blades? I3 blades are for players and shot shapping, spinning etc... I ...
