PGA show next week which means many of the big manufacturers have had their major releases. Callaway with the Epic Flash and Apex refresh... Taylormade with the M5 and M6. Titleist was earlier with the T2 and T3. Srixon updated their irons and drivers in the middle of last year, and lots more.

Hopefully, the weather starts to cooperate a little and we all can start testing these things outdoors. I feel good about my driver and irons and putter. But I need to figure out what to do with my wedges and woods going forward.

My current bag:

Driver:
Rogue SZ 9* w/ Handcrafted EvenFlow Blue 75G 6.0 tipped 1"

3W: Rogue SZ 15* same shaft as above but 85G

3H: TM M2 19* w/ stock shaft stiff

3i-PW: Miura CB57 w/ Nippon Modus3 Tour120 Stiff and UTX Lamkin grips

50*/54*/60*: Callaway MD4 w/ DG Tour S200

Putter: 34" Bettinardi BB0 DASS w/ FitFace and 4* loft

Ball: Bridgestone TourB X


I realize this is one club extra. Depending on the course and conditions, I'll pull my 3W, 3H, or 3i. Or if I feel like I need all 3, I'll pull the 50* and 54* for a 52*. But I rarely do that because I use my 54* more than any other club besides the putter.

Just did a fitting and am going with the MP18s MB with the Modus 130x. I've been hitting the TM P730 for the last year and just wasn't in love with them. Went in thinking I needed something a little more forgiving but the muscle back was the best feeling and performing of the bunch. 7 iron with 100-104 mph swing speed was going 190-195.

My current bag:

Driver: Tour Edge Blk 9*...Gonna be upgrading soon. Looking to continue my Cobra centric bag with a F7+ Black.


3H: Cobra F6 3H

5i-PW: Cobra F7 One Lengths

56*: Cobra Pur 10 bounce

Putter: Odyssey Works Sabretooth Versa w/ SuperStroke

Ball: Titleist Pro-V1 Reloads

Glad I found one lengths, if I'm not feeling my 3W that day, I can blast my 5i off the fairway right over 200. Couldn't hit longer than a 7 without chopping before.
