Damn, I hope it picks up for y'all soon. I have to work the next 2 week then am out until after new years. We are going to the hunting camp after Christmas, so maybe Wednesday before Christmas we'll go dogfight.

I hope so, that 7 iron is a normal 4-5 iron loft

Be careful with this. I've had multiple fitters tell me the same thing in that using a 46* wedge instead of a PW is only ideal for certain types of swings and impacts. If you can create the spin and flight a wedge, it may be for you, but a PW is going to be more consistent in the long run.

Rule out everything else if your PW is giving you an issue before doing that



You make wedge play sound difficult. Put me inside 120, swing club, make 4 footer. Unless it's after a penalty stroke, then I usually hit those to a foot

Ive got a set of Ping G15 that have been used less than 10 times. What can I get for them?

The loft is normal starting at the 9. And the cup face isn't in the 8 and higher so those shouldn't take off quite like the 7-4. I got the gap wedge too. My sand and loft are Cleveland Rotex 588. All new but fitted for me. Can't wait to take them out a bunch.

Nice setup, that's the key, go get fit, or just buy new clubs each week like me

Bought an Aeroburner 12* mini driver. Game changer. I've missed 2 fairways in 3 rounds. That was because I hit it too far. Thing has pinpoint accuracy.

Glad to see this thread going strong. My clubs are collecting dust. New job and life are just getting in the way right now. Played back in October in a work related tournament and lipped out an ace from 168 with an 8 iron. Had about a 5 footer for birdie.




We parred.

First time I've been fit. Tried the Ping i, Mizzuno JPX EZ, AP1 and Callaway. Was surprised I came away with the Apex. KBS Tour S shaft. 2* up

I love my APEXs as well. I got them just in time to have surgery, and I've only played about 10 times this year.

I'm ready to get back into golf.

I'm officially down to an 18 handicap, but some days it feels like I've never freaking played before....has anyone tried the "Game Golf" shot tracking device. I got one for Christmas and haven't decided if I want to install it on my clubs?
