I was thinking about getting a combo set of i10's and S58's with Rifles in them, but I'll actually have to go to the mf'ing course to make use of 'em.

If you are a ping guy, that is probably the way I would go

The three that I follow (Ames, Weir, and Woods) are still very much in it.
2 of them are Canadian...and Woods, well I just like watching him dominate and make history.

Thats kind of what I'm afraid of. I have only hit it on the simulator and I don't really know how accurate they are. The FT-I is far outta my range as far as cost goes right now, but I have hit it, and it feels great to hit.

I LOVE their G-10 driver. I desperatly need an upgrade on irons too. I'm 25 and I have had my set of clubs since I was 12!! Surprisingly, I still hit them well, and I took good care of them so they aren't bad, but just I need new ones.

I'm playing I3's now, and am demo-ing a set of G5's and I5's today.

Working at a golf course has its perks.

Free golf. Equipment for cost.

:D

I need to get me one of those jobs, I spend far too much on both.

G-10 probably would have been my other choice this year, I liked it a lot also. The R7s are a real good club too. Just depends on what look you like. I have never liked Taylor Made, the way it looks when setting up. I have a friend that is playing the SuperQuad R7, he loves it, he plays for MU. The best thing you could do is get fitted, the shaft is probably just as important as anything else when buying a driver anymore

I've REALLY come to realize that. I am planning on getting fitted, and like I said I need a stiff flex shaft cause of my swing speed. with the r7 I'm between the 425 and 460, my friend loves the 460, but its just so massive of a club head I don't know if I'll like it. I have hit the Titleist 907 D and liked it too

Do you think the moveable weights hold any merit or are they just a fad?

Sorry so many questions but its tough for me to find anyone that knows sh*t about golf around me.

smittysbar 04-11-2008 07:35 AM

Movable weighting works. It is the same as if you were to use lead tape. As long as you get a good shaft, it won't have much twist, so the larger head won't hurt anything. When buying new I would just get the 460. The Titleist D1 and D2's were a pretty big flop, and that's hard for me to say, I am a huge Titleist fan. If you look at the tour, most have the D2 head cover but are still hitting the 905, that says all you need to know about those. But mark my word Titleist will be coming out with something good next year, it is a great company and won't allow itself to be passed by.

PhillyChiefFan 04-11-2008 07:51 AM

I'll probably end up getting the 460. I'm going to use my buddy's tomorrow when we play to see if I like it, and he said that we can mess with the weights.

I need to upgrade my clubs too and I'm probably going with either Cobra s9's or Callaway X-18 (maybe 20's if I talk myself into using some of my tax incentive)

This new crop of young golfers are really playing good

xbarretx 04-11-2008 11:28 AM
