Why not branch out like I have done?
Cobra driver
Titleist fairway 3 & 5
TM Hybrids
Ping G2 irons
TM Rac Satin Wedges
Yes, TaylorMade or Scotty Cameron putters.
Wilson 50 Balls, or PRO V's (When I find em! Pensioners can not afford new V's )
Ping Bag
Adidas Shoes, Bite Shoes, Etonic shoes.
Titleist, Cobra, Ping, & STG&CC hats
Spread the love around Geoff! That way you make more money in endorsements If I had to wear a shirt with my equipment logos on it I would look like a Nascar driver or one of those European Team hockey playersMy opinions are my own, I do not follow others.

Yup, you're right. And I don't want to have to spend more than $90-100 on a head. I have some extra shafts kicking around. But as for the others, I don't need to swap for like new stuff, that's how I was planning to do a complete swap without having to spend any cash. For instance, if I could've sold my irons in time for my asking price, I'd been able to pick up those TM 300s and have some cash left over for other stuff. But I'm affraid I'm too late for those.

C'mon Geoff, don't be a fool. You were doing so well. You just posted a thread about how great it was to have a bag that didn't change, and how much you liked your current setup. Just man up and throw a crappy old driver in the bag until you can find the driver you really want at the price you can afford. Don't mess with a setup that has been working so well just so that you can say all your clubs match. Nobody is going to notice, or care. I just don't get the logic: "I can't have one club that I really want, so I'm going to give up thirteen others that I really like to get 14 others that I have no particular desire to play...but at least they'll match." Don't be a fool, stay in school. End of rant

Well, since you don't seem sway-able....go with Cleveland. They make the best wedges, and some of the prettiest irons.
Wait a minute. Aren't you playing a Scotty (or maybe a Nickent?) Your "Bridgestone" bag is already ruined then. There's no need for this firesale. Just get a driver to match your putter, and then your Bridgestone clubs will be nicely framed on either end.

I think you should wait a couple of weeks to trade or get new sticks a day or two before you play your intersectionals. That will make a few guys happy.
When I was at another course one guy did that and couldn't hit the new ones at all.
Keep what you have.

I have a 10.5 degree head which is a dead ringer for the Titleist 983K. Bore through. I could be talked into letting it go. Maybe

Did you quit your job too? I'll sense conflict there if you didn't between your recent distaste for golf.

I've got a suggestion that wasn't on the list. Why don't you see if you can find yourself an all Bridgestone bag. I hear they're pretty sweet sticks.
In all seriousness though, obviously cash is an issue at the moment., but how likely is it that you'll find someone who's got a one brand bag and who is crazy enough to just switch their entire setup? Obviously I don't have the trade expertise you do, so you probably have a better chance of making it work than me, but I doubt there are that many other crazies out there. I guess you can always include some "future considerations" if necessary.

When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.

Lets break it down a little here then......
Taylormade Superquad is a Rocketlauncher (IMO) (510TP as per your post is solid)
Fairway woods...meh...I didnt find them spectacular
Irons RAC TP Combos are nice
Y-Cutters are damn fine wedges.
Callaway FT-5 is a great stick! (FT-3 is awsome, just smaller)
2004 Fairway woods, or X are really nice
New Forged irons are sweet looking
X-Tour wedges are very nice as well....
Nike Sumo/2...YUCK! (IMO) ( I would have to go ignite...if anything)
Fairway woods (SQ2) rock for some reason, not like the driver.
Pro Combos are sweeeetttt
SV Tour wedges are very nice
Titleist 905R (or T) is solid.
904F are solid as well, and deep.
704 irons...mmmmm buttery.
Spin Milled...need I say more?
Cleveland Launcher 460/Comp hits BOMBS
Launcher Steel Fairway woods are not bad.
Iron...heres a tough one. Prob. CG2's
Cleveland Wedges...industry standards.
I'm not going to even go Golfsmith or SMT, your a club hoe for god sakes! You need BLING!
Problem with Taylormade is the fairway woods (personally), Nike has a discusting driver (again, IMO), Titleist has great bling appeal but you better be on (rep for tough to hit), Cleveland is easy to hit & go a mile but fairway woods are finicky, Callaway is pretty much solid all around.
Its hard to recommend clubs for somebody you have never really met, but if I were to pick a set, I would only be able to narrow it down to three.
Taylormade (if you get along with the FW's, its a great set, especially with the Superquad!)
Callaway (probably the easiest set to get along with)
Cleveland (easy to hit, great looks, probably the cheapest set...whats not to like?)

Well judging from what Geoff has for trade, it's possible he might be able to land some of the offerings mentioned above. Keep in mind though, most of them would likely want money on top of what he has for clubs, and he's already stated he doesn't have $130 to spend on a J33P off eBay.

I'd vote Titleist ...
The new drivers are getting great reviews & they've always had tonnes of great irons to choose from ... on top of that, vokey wedges ... it's a very well rounded list of equipement.
my 2nd choice would be Nike .. not a fan of their driver, but LOVE their pro combos.
my bottom 2 would be cally & TM ... never liked much that came out of their company...but that's just me.[SIZE=1]NCGT Ryder Cup Team [COLOR=black]Green [/COLOR](06,07,08)[/SIZE]

my advice for you from a short jew is to keep what you got until you can afford to come see me for brand new bling
everyone is mensioning new sticks. IE Sumos, New titleist driver...
keep in mind Geoff is looking to spend less than $600 on a complete new set... you cant get no good new stuff for that price...
best be checkin out some garage or estate sales
