My lineup hasn't changed except I bought a pull cart after reading that carrying clubs means a higher score. I also bought a GPS software package for my PDA last year. It's amazing how much difference there was between what I thought the distance was (based on markers, etc.) and what it actually was, especially when off the fairway.

They are great when you hit them solid. But they have a sweet spot the size of a dried up pea.

I was playing with Founders Club blades, actually pretty well, and they were stolen. I bought these as replacements, and have never really gained any confidence in them.
Probably only played a couple dozen rounds with them, but they are pretty to look at.

Are you one of those "two putter" guys? Been there.

You have to have your day-to-day putter, then you have to have the special putter with the wooden shaft that you talk to... "billy, billy, billy, billy, billy.... oh, billy, billy, billy, billy, billy...".

What a difference 2 years makes.

I don't own a single club from my original post.

Irons: Ping G5

Wedges: Vokey spin milled, satin finish, 54.10 and 60.04

How do those balls work out? What grade do you buy?

Recently lost a huge discount(usually only paid around $25 for Callaway iX or Pro V's).

I just bought 8 dozen off a guy on Ebay that were in mint condition (literally, all but 4 balls looked like they came right out of the sleeve) for $18/dz. Turns out they were shipped from lostgolfballs.com

You'll pay more if you order directly from them, but even then, they are a really good value.

Sign up for their e-mail list. Every Tues/Wed they send out an e-mail with a special. The last one was 20% off all Titleist balls, ProV1 and ProV1x included.

Buy nothing but the AAAAA balls, though. Unless you're OK with anywhere from 25-60% of the order having scuffs. Some people are fine with that. Their grading scale is very truthful.

FWIW, their E-bay store is usually cheaper than their website, unless you have an e-mail coupon.

I'm shopping for some new irons currently, as I've had my current set for 11 years now. Looking at Mizunos primarily, possibly an MX-25/MP-57 combo set. Planning on Project X 5.5 shafts - love those things.

I'm jonesing for golf season something fierce - why did I choose to live in MN?

Thanks, just ordered some off their ebay site. Hope it works out. If not I'm coming after you for my money. ;)

I had actually looked at that exact site Sunday. Couldn't decide whether to get the mint or the 4A. Plus on the site itself, mint isn't that great of a deal, with the ebay, it's worth it, hopefully.

Guess I only have 3 out of 14 clubs from 2 years ago but I think I have my bag sorted out for a while.

Dropped the 2 and 3 irons and replaced them with a gap wedge and hybrid. Took me a while to convince myself to play 4 wedges but really like it so far.

Anyone who has updated their clubs feel free to ship me their old clubs. It's about time I updated. Thanks :)
