Mostly the same has last year. A couple of changes coming

TM Superquad w/reax stiff

Changes im my bag are

New Irons again :cookoo: Srixon I-506

New Drivers: Taylor Made R7 425 TP 9.5
Taylor Made R580XD 10.5
Gonna try them both

New Wedges: Taylor Made RAC 52* 56* 60*
see the sig for the full bag

Brent Wirth
Jan 11, 2008, 12:02 AM
Driver: TM r7 Superquad
Fairway Woods: TM 15* and 18* V Steel
Irons: TM rac OS2 3-PW
Wedges: TM 56* and 60* rac Satin TP
Odyssey White Hot XG 2-Ball Mallet Putter
(Odyssey Marxman X-Act Putting Wedge)

I have not actually tried the Marxman Putting Wedge out on the course yet, but I got such a good deal on it that I figured I'd see if this thing will actually function better than my 7 iron for those short bumps.

Aside from that, the only real changes are the grips and shafts in a few cases. I ended up regripping my whole set with Winn Xi7 grips, so I am excited to play those.

I'll be using the same Infinity irons and wedges, YES putter and Adams woods, but I just picked up two new (used) drivers to test out-- KO and DCT. I know one will be the right driver for me. I've gone 2 years without using a driver for more than range practice and the odd game.

Jan 11, 2008, 09:23 AM
No changes from last year, however I will investigate replacing my R7-450 with a newer Wishon driver (525 GRT@10.5) or the 919THI if I want something a little more high-flight/high moi.

I've also thought of picking up a 515GRT 3wood and swapping out the 4iron in my bag on occassion.

But the priorities this year are continuing to develop my swing and short game, not my equipment.

LowPost42
Jan 11, 2008, 09:30 AM
Heading to the sunny south (so, starting the year)

Will be:

Driver: SMT Spectrum/AccuFLEX Evolution
Fairway: Wishon 949MC/AccuFLEX Icon FH
Iron: Wishon 560MC/TT DG
Wedge: Scratch 56 and 60
Putter: Mentor Sports Triad 2

Contenders:
Driver: Wishon 919/BGD Solution, Geek DCT/VS Proto, SMT Spectrum/VS Proto

Fairway: Geek DCT/UST V2

Irons: Infiniti AW2/Apollo Hump, SMT 303 CB combo/Apollo Hump, Wishon 550C LE/Wishon steel

Wedge: Infiniti IP3

Putter: Yeah, right.

The only change I'm making for sure is replacing my 58* Sonartec t15 with a new callaway x forged 58* with the C grind. I might change out my 52* as well but the Sonartec t35 I have right now will be hard to knock out of the bag. I'll also be looking at a new drivers, but my Nakashima NP1 460 has been great for me. My Royal Collection woods (13* Type N and 16*, 20* TRC's) aren't going anywhere, and neither are my Ping i3 blades or copper Anser 2 putter... :cool:

Jan 11, 2008, 09:42 AM
I got Sonartec ss 1.5 3 wood over the winter that is going to be making an audition to make my bag...I really liked the NP-99 I picked up last season, so I wanted to give another sonartec a shot.

I also tried out the black gold shaft in my hybrid last season and will be putting the shafts into my irons for this season, felt great in my halo and love the way they look...the dynamic golds that were in my CG2s are going into my back up set of Taylormade 300s...and I'm doing all the work on them myself, which has been pretty fun...

Replaced my 690MB's with MP-67's (first iron change since July 2003!). Will likely pick up a new wedge before the season starts as well. That should be it for a while then....

Not much in the way of changes in the Srixon bag this year except to loose the custom built SW and LW. Coming soon..... Wishon CX Satin SW and LW "Swanked" wedges. That'll complete a full set of Wishon irons.

I've been looking for a decent deal on a set of X-Forged's to go with the X-20's and I'm anxiously awaiting the release of Callaway's new X-Forged wedges later this month. Other then that, the bag's staying the same.

Too many things that I would like to do to try out, but more then likely will stick to what I have and just practice more. Changes that will occur, a new driver or two. Seems to be a thing of mine each year to do so why not add to the collection. Choices will come down to a DCT first and a Nak460 if I can find that. Will probably add a 3 iron hybrid to the bag. Will either be another Wishon 321Li or an Adams Pro Idea.
Last would be to try addingt some weights to my Monza Corza to see how I like that. Its a nice putter!

Jan 11, 2008, 10:55 AM
Currently looking for a new 3 wood and 19-20* hybrid. Got a new set of Apex FTXs to start the season with. Driver, wedges and putter are the same as last season.

Jan 11, 2008, 11:13 AM
Only possible changes I'm making is adding a 5wood and pulling the 2iron, provided the 5wood works out. :p

Not changing much from mid season last year. Burner 10.5 S flex driver, alternate between a Callaway X 3 wood and nickent 3DX 2 hybrid, 3DX 3,4 hybrids, 4-PW Mizuno MP 60 DG-S, 53, 58 MPR Mizuno wedges and my trusty old Baby Ben putter cut down to 33" and regripped.
Having said that my 7 iron which is onl 1 1/2 years old had the head come loose whilst hitting at the waterside dome, sent off to get fixed, hopefully get it back before my cruise as I'm playing Teeth of the Dog in mid Feb.

Jan 11, 2008, 07:27 PM
loving my bag right now... only thing i want to do is get my driver tuned in, as i am hitting the 3wood only about 10yrds less than it.

Maybe i will just add the TourEdge Exotics 13* and drop the driver all together... heard these things are every bit as long as drivers!

just added a Srixon Tour driver, Some tour CG12 wedges, and a Cameron 009 (a009691) .. on the hunt for a 3 wood now...

hoganben
Jan 11, 2008, 08:39 PM
Wilson Staff Goosenecks 2-PW (1988)
Wilson Staff Midsize Sandwedge (1995 or so)
Ping Eye 2 3 & 4 Wood (Got to love the wood) (1986)
Titleist Bullseye Putter (? probably 30 or so years old)
Cobra SS 350 Driver (Perhaps the Callaway BBll 415)

All my "newer" purchases (Cally x-14/x-16, Hogan Apex Edge Pro, Cleveland Launchers, Steelheads, V-Steels, Nike Ignite Driver, Hogan Driver, Cally X Tour Driver, R7's etc.) are in the basement or were sold. I have gone back to what I used 15 or so years ago (except driver). Not sure how long the 2 iron (fresh off of Ebay) will stay in the bag. Used to like a 2 iron off the tee. Will concentrate on making my swing more consistent. All the middle-age guys I play with love the old clubs.

New !! Oops, after reading TGN "posts" all winter I've added
1/Vokey 52/08 & 58/08 raw wedges
2/ TM R7 425 (don't like 460's) driver
3/ TM R7 5W (so I can keep the Ping Eye 2 3& 5 woods in the bag -or might add R7s)

Also Hogannut has motivated me to dust off my Hogan Apex Edge Pros. I've had them made one degree stronger and one degree more upright. They look great in my giant Hogan staff bag. The bag is so big that it's hard to get it on a power cart (I use a cart when we use a coupon). Might alternate between the Hogans and the Wilsons.

Not much will be changing this year methinks. ;)

Right now I'm looking into grabbing some Callaway X-18's. My buddy is willing to sell me his X-16's for $150 and they've got extended grips and rifle shafts so I'm thinking I might even pick those up.

Jan 12, 2008, 07:46 AM
Can't wait for the season. I have some changes to the bag this year. I will be dropping the 3 & 4 iron this year in favour of Hybrids. Im still not settled on irons though. I picked up a set of CG2's from ebay to try out. The seller had great feedback and the pics of the clubs were very detailed so I'm pretty confident that they are the real deal. Still, I will be sending the 3 iron to Cleveland for verification. With all the CG fakes on ebay these days I would like a little piece of mind. So here is my potential 08 bag:

Cleveland Hibore XL 9*
Cleveland Launcher 15*
Cleveland Halo 19*
Adams Idea Pro 23*
CG2 5-pw (pending verification and trial period)
CG 12 54*
CG 10 58*
Yes Callie

Other Iron suitors include: S58, R7tp, titleist AP2, and whatever else catches my eye in the coming months. Also may replace my 58* and add a 50*. Will give serious cosideration to Vokey and others. Although it doesn't look like it, Im not really brand loyal. Cleveland has just really suited my eye and game these last couple years. I look forward to future offerings from them under the new ownership.

My number 1 bag wont change from last season and the pieces that make the 14 clubs include

Wishon 560 mc irons 5-pw plus aw
Wishon 321Li hybrids
Ashton X1 3 and 5 wood
SMT 455 driver
Mentor Sports Triad II putter
Sonartes t35 56*
Eidelon 60*

I have 3 full back up sets that will see some to no play and as always I will try many new clubs and shafts over the season.


My goal this year is to use my main bag for 75% of my rounds , and only introduce different and new clubs pasrt of the time
this is to try and lower my handicap from the 6-7 it has been at for a few years to what I used to be ....3-4.

Unfortunately , only playing 2-3 times a month with no time to practice other than before rounds makes this goal a bit tougher but doable.

Is your discount less then the yearly selloff of 1or 2 year old models? I realize now after the past trheads that employee discounts can be sacred and very important for people in career jobs at places like Golftown etc... My apologies. No disrespect was meant.

Jan 16, 2008, 02:06 PM
Irons were brand new in the bag at the very end of last season so that's the biggest change for me this year. Could possibly be ditching the Launcher 460 for the Titleist 907 D2.

Hype One
Jan 16, 2008, 07:33 PM
My bag is pretty set with the following:

-Cleveland HiBore XL Tour 9.5* w UST V2 65S
-Sonartec 3.5 SS 14* w/Graphite Design YS-6s
-Sonartec Md 19* w/UST iRod Hybrid S
-Cleveland CG1 Black Pearl 3-pw Project X 6.0
-Cleveland CG12 Black Pearl 52* & 56*
-Odyssey 2-Ball Tour

I am looking for a center shaft version of my 2-Ball. It's getting hard to find the old White Hot lined and filled ones, even on the Bay. I'm also doing some testing with the Sonartec GS tour to see if it outperforms my SS 3.5 3-wood.

Richard
Jan 17, 2008, 12:49 AM
Changed out everything :) Still have to reshaft a few things and maybe grind a wedge or two, here is my current plan

Miura 2 Iron - S300
Mizuno MP 29 3-pw - rifle 7.0
Mizuno MPT 53 - S300
Miura 56 - S300 or Mizuno MPT 58 - S300
Odyssey Dual Force 2 - center shaft

Oh they are not out of the bag yet !!! But there may be some "spring training try outs" (I need to get the club hoing out of the blood before the little one goes to daycare !!) Funny how you come up with excuses when you have a problem...:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Mar 14, 2008, 03:59 PM
The only change I'm making for sure is replacing my 58* Sonartec t15 with a new callaway x forged 58* with the C grind. I might change out my 52* as well but the Sonartec t35 I have right now will be hard to knock out of the bag. I'll also be looking at a new drivers, but my Nakashima NP1 460 has been great for me. My Royal Collection woods (13* Type N and 16*, 20* TRC's) aren't going anywhere, and neither are my Ping i3 blades or copper Anser 2 putter... :cool:

Sooooo I've got the x forged 58* now... and also picked up a Burner TP driver and a Matrix Code 8 to go in it.. but I can't get the Cobra L4Vx out off my mind.. My Nak head is really heavy (210 grams) but I suspect I might get some better launch conditions and ball speeds from the L4Vx which is heavy in it's own right around 208 grams.. Damn I wish the snow would go so I can play instead of thinking about new gear all the time :cookoo:

Mar 14, 2008, 06:57 PM
Driver - Taylor Made R580 with YS7 stiff shaft
Fairway Wood - Nike SQ2 3 Wood with stock stiff shaft
Irons - Taylor Made RacLT with Rifle 6.0s
Wedges - Taylor Made Rac Tp Satin 56 and 60 with Dynamic Gold S200 shafts
Putter - Yes (forget which model) left handed
Ball - Bridgestone B-330s

I love everything going in my bag right now except the three wood. I want to get rid of it and grab a Taylor Made Burner for the bigger head (I like bigger headed fairway woods).

Mar 14, 2008, 07:26 PM
Replaced all my irons as per my signature, replaced my 60* black Miura wedge for a satin 60* Miura because I wanted all the same colour:cookoo: , took the 3 iron out and replaced it with 52* Miura wedge.

Cut the driver down a bit, also the 3 wood, easier to come through the ball with more control. I"m going to change my brand new Ping hoofer bag thats in black, I will put it on the BST. Bought 2 more pair of F/Joy Real fits.

Whats else can I buy, oh yeah, bought a new car last night to carry them around in.:D Well off to the BST to sell my brand new Ping Hoofer bag in Black thats only been to the launch about 3 times. :)

Have gone back in time a bit to Cleveland Comp Driver and 3W. Want to find some similar shafts for them, but I have to have my swing analyzed first.

Might ditch my 16* Halo, and look for a reliable 2 iron.

Switched up my gamer NP Beach for the NP Beach 1.5. Some shaft tweaking to be done there as well.

Might knock out the 64* 588, as I think a new 60* will be just as effective and versatile.

Yes, black and kind of triangular! Remember where I work! I loved my Burner from last year and really haven't given this one a good test yet! Next week in Houston I'm playing a couple of rounds...I'll give you better feedback then. Seems to spin the ball a little less.
I've been working with a lot of players using this and it sure seems to be getting great feedback. BTW the 425 still gets lots of play too! and that's a couple years old!

Yea that's what I thought but I was just wondering, I haven't herd much about it, as it just came out. I am not the biggest fan of the look on the sole, but hey you don't see that in the swing, and if it works it works. I love last years burner and works very well for me and won't be going no where soon.

Yea many people still speak of the 425 highly as a great club, never had one so I couldn't tell me point of view.

After completing a deal earlier today, the bag is set for the start of the season. But for those that know me, how long the bag stays this way is the bigger question.

905T 10.5* (tinkering with the idea of putting a Code 6 in this thing)
906F2 15*&18* w/ Mercury Performance Plus
990 3-PW w/ Rifle 6.0
OC SM 52*/56*60* w/ TT DG
SC SS Laguna 2.5

Believe it or not, my iron set actually has a 1 and 2, what the hell am I going to do with those?!?!

I figured my new irons will need a new home, so I called Jeff and ordered a new Ogio bag. When is this season gonna start?!

My piggy bank was a little low after the Srixon purchase, so my "Boss";) only gave me enough money for the Vaporlite. lol

We sure gonna be walking a lot. After all that snow melts, none of the courses will let you take the cart near the fairways...

Looks like a total revamp for me. Gone is my trusty Cleveland equipment (for now anyway). I get a package at my new place of employment, and it looks like it has to be from Taylor Made. I'll be ordering the following:

Superquad TP 9.5*
Burner TP 14.5*
Rescue TP 17*
TP MB w/Project X 6.0
RAC TP Z-Groove 52, 56, 60
Monza Spider

We'll see what outperforms what early in the season. For me, it's more about scoring. If the TM stuff outperforms my gamers (particularly the Sonartec FW and hybrid and the 2-ball), then I'll bag them.
