How many closet Ho's are out there

[The Saint]

We hear all the time how Geoff is the biggest club ho out there and although he's tempered his compulsive behaviour he is still the King. However I know and you know that there are a number of you that are wheeling and dealing or you just simply like to buy new stuff to try it out. So this poll is to expose all of you club ho's that have been in the closet. So how many sets of clubs do you have sitting at home?

[AndrewMGA]

I'm not realy that bad, I just keep buying and have a tough time letting the older stuff go .

I think I'm set now so my inventory should not increase this year, at least thats what I tell myself ( and my wife ).

Had to choose the few sets putters wedges woods lol.

JUST got rid of my extra sets but still have 3 drivers, 4 putters and a bunch of other golf related toys I don't need. Maybe one day I'll get around to listing some!

[Gropper]

Well i chose one set and few extras, I tend to buy new stuff but sell the old as soon as possible. Last years bag was complety new, this year is complety new except the Irons. So no backups sets or anything else i just like one bag and a couple options!

I missed the button for one set of irons, a couple extra clubs and a dozen putters...

[jvincent]

I saw this and I thought The Saint was going to be setting up some kind of 12 steps program.

That or we was starting a cult for club ho's with himself as leader.

For the record, I have a backup set + a few extras.

Well lets see, I've been golfing and buying clubs for 25 years and in that time I've only sold 2 sets of irons 2 drivers and a sand wedge. So that leaves.......OMG I am a super Ho. I figured it's either buy a lamborghini or surround yourself in golf clubs, Well I drive a Sable so you know where I stand.

[The Saint]

Hmmm that gives me an idea for some tax breaks... How does this sound "The Saint's Church for the Perfect Club" Church will be every Sunday @ a golf course near you!

I am a Semi Closet Ho.
Currently I own 3 sets of forged irons.
Two drivers
a couple of extra wedges
Only one putter (Hence the Semi Closet Ho}
I keep looking for another putter but I want the right one for the course I will be working at. Lightning fast greens most of the time so I need a lighter flat stick for that course.
Oh ya, 4 golf bags in stock.

[jvincent]

Golfbum, see if you can track down an old Slotline inertial. They are pretty light compared to today's putters. I have one as my backup.

[jeffc]

I'd say there is a bit of ho in me, but I tend to find something I like and stick with it and don't vary too much with things - especially irons. I experiment from time to time with drivers, woods, wedges, to see if I can find something better but if not, then it's back to the trusted favourites. Also, the wife starts to ask a lot of questions when there are too many clubs lying around. I remember a couple of years ago, she said "When did you get new headcovers?" If she only new it wasn't just the headcovers that were new (as well as the clubs sitting under them) ;-)

[Big Johnny69]

HA! Only one other person voted the same way as I did. Contrary to what many of you might think, I only have one set. I don't fill my rafters with clubs like some people around here, wink wink, nudge nudge. Hence why I needed to borrow some clubs to play this week, my set is in for some surgery........my one and only set. So there!!!!!!

[mcgoo]

I may have to seek profesional help.

That's poor ho-ing, plain and simple. Even my 21 month old son has a few spare clubs to go along with his main set. Something to keep in the car in case we're out somewhere and decide we have time to hit a bucket.

........Good luck finding someone for therapy , I have everyone tied up for the next 6 months.

That may be the case, but the half-life of your clubs is measured in weeks at best.

But the longer the Bstones hang around the better the average life span gets.

........Is it just me or do ya think it's strange that the two bigest club hos were born within 10 days of each other . I wonder what was in the air that August so many years ago????

[BullDog]

I have two sets of irons but that's because my 15-odd year old titanium shafts on my Ping Eye 2 set needed re-shafting after I busted two shafts at the hosel (on good shots, not chunks) within a couple weeks of each other last year.

I got a set of Ping i3 Blades here and fell in love with them.

I know I'm already "grown up" but when I really grow up, I want to be just like Geoff and The Saint and strive to be as great a ho as they have set a great example!!!

[covanant]

Sounds like the Saint is posting this to defend himself Wife on you?
7 putters,3 sets of irons,2 drivers.......does that make me a ho?

[jvincent]

Dude, 7 putters?

And the answer is yes.

[covanant]

Yeah.............so?................what are you saying?

[covanant]

Sorry.....8.one in the mail

[MusicMan]

ive got a little of everything... look for a closet sale during the summer

[DavidY]

I have two sets of clubs...both set of irons and several other clubs were from the Saint. Therefore, I owe all my hoing to the Saint. Thanks, Chris!

[psniddy]

I have a few full set around. Probably 6 complete sets and at least a dozen putters.

[Wknd_Warrior]

I have a few sets of irons and some misc old stuff. THere is my main set, a more modern set I got recently that i'm going to play until it gets warm and a set from somewhere around 1953 I picked up from e bay cause I thought they were cool.

There are also some old Wilsons hanging around tte house that I'm not going to let get tthrown out. There's a specific setof Wilson Staff Tour blades from 78 I think, that I want just "to have" and would grab almost on a whim if the price quality was favourable.
