    Only club I even sort of regret selling is my original Big Bertha driver. But that was before I got the z350. No regrets at this point.

    I know its tough for me to pick one, but if I had to, probably the Scotty Futura Phantom Mallet 2. Was making everything with that bad boy.

    I thought you just put them in your father's garage with the other old clubs and one of your low life brothers steal them. Might have to give this selling thing a try. If only to bug the club weazels.

    I lost something much more important then clubs... My Swing. THe swing that got away from me was the one I had mid Early August late July. It was awesome best golf of my life then I played one day and these people were talking about hips and one thing lead to another and now I'm at square one. Poor Distanes and just pray it stays in play!

    Never put much stock in an "expert" you play with. See a pro for instruction or you will regret it. Sorry, I guess you know that now.

    My undercuts. McGoo where are you? Stupid me. Fortunately I just purchased some KE4 with adjustable weights in the toe and heel. It is quite a disease we all have but it's fun

    Callaway Warbird 3-wood. Wasn't the best off the fairway for me, but as a 2nd option off the tee... Fade, draw, whatever. And the original M-10 steel shaft could take my hardest swings with ease. I could really rip that club.

    Odyssey DF-550 putter. Traded it to Chief for a Voodoo (brain cramp on my part). Voodoo's long gone (to Andru I think). Thankfully, I'm getting used to my Ping Ally 2, which is a similar design.

    Titleist 962 irons. They had TT S-400 Sensicores. Traded to a guy for a set of Wilson FG-17 blades because I knew deep down he couldn't hit blades, and I didn't want him to suffer. I still have the Wilson heads on the shelf (long term restoration project). I played a round with the guy a few months later, and he told me that he had lost the 8-iron. I almost cried. Thankfully, a recent deal with Fireice has me back in the Titleist "saddle" with a set of the 962B's, with 7.0 Rifles. The heads are a bit more compact, a bit less offset, but the same old amazing Titleist feel.
    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

    TaylorMade Supersteel 3 wood, S90 Rifle shaft. Man I could pound that thing as far as most guys hit driver. Not the greatest club off the deck, but when the ball was on a peg it was GOLD.
    My swing slowed down though, and I just felt I could not hit it as solid as I used to.
    My opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

    1. Thou shalt have no other clubs, before me.
    2. Thou shalt not mock the club ho's image (even though it's soooo fun).
    3. Thou shalt not take the name Taylor Made in vain.
    4. Remember the sabbath day, that's the final round.
    5. Honour thy father and thy mother for raising such a good club ho.
    6. Thou shalt not kill any deal, no matter how insane it sounds.
    7. Thou shalt not commit more than 5 deals at the same time.
    8. Thou shalt not steal from another ho.
    9. Thou shalt bear fifteen wedges.
    10. Thou shalt covet everyone elses clubs.

    Thanks for the behaviour code lobwedge, I now have principles to guide my behavior.
    Chieflongtee; I am hitting the Raven's well because of the shafts, but don't despair, you will get them back because I am a CLUB_HO. It feels great to be out-of-the closet.
