Hey Folks,
here is my current set-up. This is likely what I will be using to start the season in Florida in a few weeks... but the new RocketBladez Tour's are calling my name, a visit to Dick's once I get to Florida is in the plans!

Driver: TaylorMade R11s (9* tuned to 10*)
3 Wood: TaylorMade R11 (14*)
Rescues: TaylorMade TP's (19* and 22*)
Irons: TaylorMade R9 TP's (4 to PW, however the 4 is not always in the bag)
Wedges: TaylorMade MB TP's (52* and 56*)
Putter: TaylorMade Ghost (Soon to change for the TM WhiteSmole IN-74)
Balls: TaylorMade Penta's (Old version)
Bags: Puma Limited Staff Bag for when I use my ClicGear or play in a cart, Puma Stand bag for Florida Trip and when Golfing while camping to save space in the truck!

I expect changing Irons and Putter within the few weeks of the beginning of the new season!

Well I posted this way too early yet again this year!

I just ordered a set of Rocketbladez Tour's and I added a new putter... Pics to come as soon as my irons come in!

[adam]

I hit the Tour Rocketbladez at golftown (7 and 8 irons) and found the 7 to feel alright, but the 8 iron felt really harsh, like I was hitting a rock. Would like to know why Taylormade didn't put the insert into the 8-W or adjust them somehow to make them feel softer like the longer irons.

I guess everyone has their take. I spent a few hours at Dick's in florida hitting every iron, even took my old irons in and tested them against the Tour's and I was getting an average of 10-12 yards more with the Tour's and I loved the feel. Almost felt like my old blades but with lots more distance. Overall I was sold right there, and it's not like my old irons were no good, I also loved my old ones... so I guess it depends on the golfer!

[John]

Nice Seb, you must be hitting the new 8 iron at least 110 now.

Wow, to say i considered you a friend!

[John]

Still miffed about my matchplay "loss" to you last year.

Still miffed about my matchplay "loss" to you last year.

Lol, oh come on... I was on the 1st tee box, you never showed! It was your idea to wait til Belleville Friday! If it makes you feel better, I will reimburse you the entry fee into the Match Play Tournament!

[sebber]

Just took deliver y of my RocketBladez Tour's, expect pics once the rest of my set returns from florida! These irons are probably the best looking irons since the TM MB TP's!

[sebber]

Finally... Bag is officially set for the year!!!

Driver: TM R11s 9* (RIP Phenom Stiff)
Fairway Metal: TM R11 T3 14* (Fujikara Blur Reg.)
Hybrids: TM Rescue TP 19* and 22* (Aldila Voodoo Reg.), depending on course, one of these may take a seat in place of an extra wedge.
Irons: TM 4-PW Rocketbladez Tours (KBS Stiff)
Wedges: TM Rocketbladez Tour AW (51*), TM MB TP's 52* bent to 54*, 56* bent to 58*

Hybrids: 18* Adams A12 Pro and 23* Adams A7 PNT with Aldila VS Proto RIPs

Irons: 5-PW Bridgestone Gravity Chamber mids w/ stiff+ FST Pro 115 (these are the nicest feeling irons I have ever hit.. and they are LOOONG)

Cart: Sun Mountain Spped Cart V1

putting the woods back in the bag. Never bonded with the 3 metal I had, and the shaft was snapped in an "accident" last year anyhow. Working on getting the old driver repaired.

[John]

Mad retro, looks like a vintage compilation from the early 80's with some of my favourite stars.

[Wknd_Warrior]

Bang on. Irons are '83 Haigs, woods I think are the same model, but were bought separately. Putter's a Haig from the same era, very similar to the classic Wilsons of the day.

[Break68]

The royal grip V sands are intriguing... cheap and I remember thinking the feel and traction seemed really nice. I'd be interested to hear a review later in the summer... but for those prices, you really can't go wrong, and the white ones look nice too.

The Royal V-Sand Wrap grip experiment lasted 2 rounds, I hated them. The sand wrap almost wears your skin off, they are brutal. My hands hurt for days after playing these grips, these grips are about 10 times rougher than Gof Pride ND Mulicompund cord grips. I cut them off after 2 rounds and have replaced them with Pure Pro Mid-size grips and they are the best grips I have ever used.

[Brent4Hire]

I'll post a pic tonight - bag is ready to go:

Driver - Ping I15 9* Axivcore Red
3wood - Callaway Diabloe Octane Tour (shaft change comeing for that one)
5wood - Taylor Made R11 TP
Hybrid - Taylor Made Rescue Mid 19*
4 - PW - Mizuno MP-53
52* - Callaway C-Grind
58* - Callaway C-Grind
Putter - Ping Redwood ZB

I switched to the 52/58 wedge set-up this year to put the wood back in the bag. I seem to be hitting the 58* for eveything - lol. The grooves are getting to the end of their days, so I may replace them with RTG's before the season is over.

[CaptainHook]

I've only been golfing for a few years and being a single 20 something year old, this game isn't cheap. So I have built what I call a 'sale rack special'. None of the clubs are current, however, my skill level wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the Rocketballz and Rocketballz stage 2... Although, I kind of want to go big and get a Scotty... and I blame every single one of you for that.

That being said my lineup:

Driver: Taylormade Burner Superfast 2.0 9.5* stock Stiff Matrix Ozik shaft - Black and white Golf Pride multi compound grip
3 Wood: Adams Speedline LP stock Matrix Radix 5.1 shaft - stock grip (soon to be a Black and white Golf Pride multi-compound)
5 Wood: Dunlop Powerlift stock Accudyne shaft - Golfpride mid sized Softie grip
4 - AW: Taylormade R9 stock KBS stiff shafts - white Black Widow tour silk grips
56*: Nike VR Wedge stock True Temper Dynamic Gold shaft white Black Widow tour silk grip
60*: Nike VR Wedge stock True Temper Dynamic Gold shaft white Black Widow tour silk grip
Putter: Nike E-33 Everclear Putter
3 wheel Maxfli pushcart

[Leftymoose]

Complete overhaul of the gear. Pictures to follow:

Driver: Callaway X Hot 9.5 degree with Project X Tour PVi 6.5 X-Stiff
3 Wood: Taylor Made RBZ Stage 2 Tour 14.5 degree with Rocketfuel 70 X-Stiff
3 Hybrid: Taylor Made RBZ Stage 2 Tour 18.5 degree with Rocketfuel 80 X-Stiff

Irons: 2013 Callaway X Forged 5-PW with Project X PXi 6.5 X-Stiff
Wedges: Titleist Vokey SM4 Tour Chrome 50, 60 and 64, Vokey 256 56 degree

[big easy]

Nice bag Lefty, my 5-PW 2013 x forged are on their way along with two x utility proto's!!

I'm your man if these become failed experiments...

[John]

Figured the whole set will go to you once i decide to sell, KBS Tour X in everything. Can't wait to hit the utilities.

[Leftymoose]

Haven't received my X Forged yet either, hopefully this week. So they are not officially in the bag yet. Let us know how you like the Callaway utility irons John. I was considering those as well but haven't been able to demo any.

[Brent4Hire]

Hey CptHook - how are you liking the VR wedges? I just changed my C-Grinds out and put them in tonight...no play as of yet.
