For me, hitting a 3 hybrid is about as easy as hitting a 7 iron, but having it go like a 2 iron. :-) > > I've never been able to hit a mailbox driver either. I can hit them alright... ...it's just that I don't think the R7 is particularly good for me. -- Alan Baker Vancouver, British Columbia <http://gallery.me.com/alangbaker/100008/DSCF0162/web.jpg>
From: Silvio on 3 Mar 2010 03:19 Driver: Ping (Rapture Stiff stock shaft) Irons: Mizuno MP-33 1-PW (Rifle 6.5) LW: Dunlop Loco 60 deg. (Regular stock) Putter: Odyssey Rossie I am not a club fanatic. This is my second driver, iron set and putter ever. Never owned a LW before this one. I like the clubs and will replace only worn off or broken ones. Silvio

If that doesn't pan out, I'll go back to the very old Titliest driver I have. I would really like a low profile driver similar to the MacGregor Mactech fairway woods, but I haven't seen any in a long while. -- Lloyd
From: Rick Currie on 3 Mar 2010 09:47 Here's my current bag : Driver : TaylorMade R5 Dual D 3 Wood : TaylorMade R5 Dual Hybrids : 3 & 4 no name brand - got them for $20 a piece. They do the trick for now. :) Irons : TaylorMade RAC OS2 - 3-PW Wedges : TaylorMade RAC Chrome - 50*, 54*, 58* - just got them, have only used them indoors at a simulator. Feel nice so far though Putter : Odyssey White Hot XG9 Again, yes, that's more than 14. I usually take my 3 and 4 iron out and put the hybrids in. I suspect next year that I will look into replacing the irons. Been looking at the Titleist AP2 irons. Anybody here got anything good/bad to say about them? Also, tried a King Cobra S9-1 last year at demo day at my course. Felt pretty good. Rick

I hope I'm not bragging but my clubs are all new. I recently bought a set of Top Flite XL5000 clubs. These include: Driver, woods 3, 4H, 5H irons, 6-9, PW and SW putter I also recently bought a Callaway 3i and a Peak chipper. I also carry a six of beer, a bottle of rum, and a flask of brandy. I plan on adding a golf GPS to the bag. I shipped my old clubs to Florida, where I store them in my Winter home. There I have: Rawlings 10.5 driver, Northwestern woods 1.3.5. (Actual woods, too, not those sissy metal ones.) irons, Northwestern Chi Chi Rodriguez model 3-PW Black Velvet putter I plan on adding a sand wedge, (lots of sand traps in Florida.) Vote for Palin-Brown in 2012. Horvath(a)Horvath.net My T-shirt says, "This shirt is the ultimate power in the universe." |
