Pablo · 03-02-2009, 04:13 PM

Slazenger Raw 460cc driver. 10.5
Slazenger Raw 3W, 5W, and Hybrid 3
Cobra FP 4-9 and wedges
Tour Edge St. Thomas(maybe, don't remember the exact model name) putter

Ogio bag.

Oh, and I'm gonna hit the range on Thursday to figure my effin driver out, and maybe trash it altogether for my 3W, then play a round on Friday morning.

So, those of you that play golf, what's in your bag? Any new clubs you've demoed, or would like to demo?

My sticks:

Cleveland Launcher 460 Composition (9.5 degree)

Cleveland Launcher Composition 3 Wood (15 degree)

Titleist 904F 5 Wood (18.5 degree)

Cleveland TA6 Irons

Adams gunmetal wedges (52, 56 and 60 degree)

Guerin Rife Mallet putter

Ball: Usually play Nike One Black. Also play Bridgestone B330 and Callaway HX Tour56.

I'm pretty happy with my driver, but am dying to demo the new Nike Sumo Squared. I'd really like to get some new irons this spring, but haven't even begun to look......

Wow...

What a difference 2 years makes.

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

Driver: Ping G2

3W/5W: Taylor Made V steel, 15 and 18*

Irons: Ping G5

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

Putter: Odyssey White Hot XG #7.

Ball: Used ProV1's from lostgolfballs.com

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.

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.

Supposed to warm back up this week - can't wait to get to the range.

Hopefully I can get a few rounds in before the end of the month. Heading to the Lake to play Tan-Tar-a (twice) Osage National and Old Kinderhook the last weekend of March.

Pablo · 03-02-2009, 04:18 PM

I re-named my wedges last week when I went out.

I now have a Goddammit wedge, a Sonofabitch wedge, and a Phuck it all wedge.

You need a couple of Vokeys.

I used to HATE wedge shots.

Now I know what they mean when tour guys talk about "feel".

Yeah, my wedges have the "feel" of a vicious airport cavity search.

If you play more than 10 times a year, go spend the money. You won't regret it.
