WITB........your wife’s clubs

[Yuck]

My wife is an avid golfer. She started playing about 35 years ago when we were dating. Once the kids were grown, she got better. 5 club championships in the last 10 years at 3 different clubs. She is now in her “early 60’s” and has lost a bit of speed, so she finally replaced a very old set a couple years ago. She plays men’s senior shafts on all except her three iron, which is a project x 6.0. ( go figure??). She does beat me gross on not so rare occasions. She still shoots upper 70’s on good days.

 

Here is her WITB for what it’s worth.

915 D2 12 degree redboard 60g ( I talked her into giving up her 10.5 degree 975 D driver a few years back) Her Driver speed is down to the high 70’s these days.

Callaway X 3,5,7 woods, Fujikura Banzai 65g A flex

Bridgestone Air muscle 3 iron, project X 6.0 ( stolen from my bag a dozen years ago) she calls it her “Tree iron” for hitting low bullets under branches.

PXG 25 & 28 degree hybrids KBS TGI 60g graphite. A flex

7-GW PXG 0311 P, Steelfiber 70i , a flex

20 year old Michela sand wedge. ( she won’t replace this one)

Highway 101 number 7 style putter. She is a much better putter than me.

 

anyone else have a wife with a not so generic set of clubs?

 

 

[Myherobobhope]

Spiderwebs, mostly.

[third-times-a-charm]

Quite a few of the ladies at the club have neat bags and are quirky about their selection. I've seen PXG stuff and even CF16's (not counting our LPGA members bags) and lots of 'mens' clubs with A/L shafts, but the majority is a mix of old SGI stuff and 'made for women' stuff from PING and Cleveland from the early 2000's.

My wife is one of the most modern and interesting I've seen IMO, mostly from my being on here and playing 'personal clubfitter' for her.

She has:

Mizuno ST190 10.5 Driver / Fujikura Pro XLR8 L Flex Shaft 43" (We just moved to this from the JPX900 440cc driver and she gained almost 20 yds)

Mizuno JPX900 3-wood / Fujikura Pro XLR8 L Flex Shaft 42" (She wont let this go, it's her 'magic' 3 wood)

Mizuno JPX900 4H and 5H / Fujikura Pro L Flex Shafts

Nike Vapor Speed 6-PW (She cycles the 5i in and out of the bag with her 5h depending on conditions, she used to play both of them but I made her take one out as to focus on being good with just one of them)

Cleveland CBX 52 and 56 Wedges with KBS Tour Wedge shafts (She will be switching these out to the Callaway MD5 JAWS wedges w/ Catalyst 6.0 Mens graphite shafts as soon as I can find a deal on them)

PING G Le Oslo Putter

Bridgestone E6 Lady balls

Nike Sport Lite II bag (she walks 9 holes by herself sometimes)

 

....and she shot her first 95 again (gross) last weekend after our first kid earlier this year.

I bought the wife a cheap set of Wilsons from Wal-Mart about 10 years ago and took her to the range. After about 10 swings she said "this sucks and it hurts my b00bs". I said "well we aren't gonna change em so I guess golf ain't your thing". They've sat in a corner in the garage ever since.

[Therealpatgiles]

I bought my girlfriend a set of Wilson's from budget golf I think. She's a lefty and a beginner so it was not too hard to find a cheap set for her to try. She's used them once.

[player12]

My wife started playing when she retired at age 48...former college bb coach, can shoot the heck out of free throws/3 pt range; but a sport such as golf was quite foreign initially. she started with my old TM MCG 5-PW and TM woods reshafted for her length and SW. started at 30hc index..stuck with it (never thought she would). shes now a 14.5 index and moved on to:

 

Callaway Fusion 13.5 45.5 Recoil 450 F2

Callaway X2Hot 15 43 Aldila ATX 55 SR flex

3,4,5 Callaway 2018 Big Bertha Hybrids Recoil ES 460 F2 (1* lie up)

Callaway 6-AW 2018 Big Bertha Irons Recoil ES 460 F2 (1* Lie up)

Callaway Mack 3 54 (bent to 55) and 58 (both 1/2 in long)

Odyssey 2-ball Putter (won in a giveaway and wont part with it)

Callaway Supersoft, Bridgestone E6, and she also likes Kirklands

a million shirts shorts skirts and pants and more shoes than I can count..and most of all A whole large box of TPC Players caps..

My wife uses Adams Idea - Petite boxed set, which she got fitted for in 2014. She's only 4-foot-9, so the female player's rep at Golf Galaxy made three coordination calls with the factory in Ft. Worth regarding the fitting. For one thing, Adams was able to flatten lie slightly on irons, and on long-hosel hybrids too.

Adams sent her clubs "grips in the box" to GG so the rep could do a final fitting. Good move, she needed another half-inch off each shaft for a good fit. (Player's rep was daughter of local golf pro, and she had played some in college. Unfortunately, she quite golfdom for a job with better pay and more regular hours.)

Club mix:

12° Driver (she uses 3W off, even hits her 5W longer. She leaves driver at home. I may have to contact Maltby/GolfWorks for cure. Their L-Tech model has a 15° driver with some extra-light shafts).3-5-7W (45 gram Idea shafts)5, 6 Hy (50 gram Idea shafts)7i-SW (50-gram Idea shafts)Adams Yes!

[Exactice808]

Wife is a closet golfer... and it drives me nuts, shes actually a Surfer but her balance is unbelievable thus it translate, Her first day out ever playing (going to the driving range twice in her life) she shot a 109, then 2 years later (Never played again) we went to a Par 3 course and she proceeded to make 2 natural birdies and handful of pars.... But she doesnt like playing......damn.....

What a great thread!

According to her, it's driver, 7 iron, and putter.

 

According to me, it's:

-TItleist D2 with a shortened senior flex shaft

-Titleist 915 5 hybrid with a 50g shaft

-Titleist AP1s 6-GW with senior flex graphite shafts

-TaylorMade MySpider putter; purple, and I paint-filled the details in her late mother's favorite colors, green and yellow.

My wife was fitted for her irons at Club Champion. I'd like to get her fit for her woods and hybrids, but I think she probably would have to commit to a few lessons first. Once we got her on a launch monitor it became pretty obvious she didn't need a full bag. We dropped her 3w, 6h, and 5h.

Nike Machspeed STR8-Fit Ladies HL

Nike VR-S Ladies 5w 21*

Nike VR-S Ladies 4h 24*

Ping G700 7i-9i-UW-SW

Ping Ketsch

 

I'd like to get her into a new driver and find a better gapping with her hybrid and fairway wood. Ideally I think she'd be in more like a 22* hybrid and 17* fairway wood. But at her skill level, I'm not sure it matters that much.

[homergolf]

My wife's bag: Callaway Women's: Steelhead 5 wood

Big Bertha 5 hybrid

Big Bertha 7, 9, P irons

Titleist Bullseye putter

We played one time last season and she's thinking about playing again sometime.

[Dr. Hack]

Love this thread. My wife is new to golf and I was totally clueless trying to put together a bag for her a couple years ago. She now games a mixed set of hand-me-down irons that we got from her mother, so it alternates between Adams Idea irons and Callaway XR...literally alternating every other club. Don’t know how she makes it work but she does. In fact she actually hit a hole in one on her very first round of golf, can you believe that?! She has an old XR 4 wood she uses for “driver”. That was the hole in one club off a short par 3 from the red tees haha.

Really want to get her a full proper set one of these days. What I love about womens clubs is the weight...I bought a light carry bag for our recent golf trip and it fit inside my carry case beside my clubs and still made the 50lb weight for the airline. Caddy kept calling it “the dream bag”.

My wife has a Cleveland Bloom set that's been collecting dust and critters since 2015. I dust it off every year in the hope that she'll eventually pick up the game. They're worth virtually nothing except to me, so I wait and pray for the day we both retire.

[Steelhead]

Hard to get her to change but she will try everything I throw at her and she’s a “closet Ho’” now!

[RJ_MJ_JJ]

I'm trying to get my wife more interested in PLAYING golf. She enjoys watching it with me, but she's self-conscious about her own game. That said, I bought her some new(ish) club as soon as we joined a new Country Club to help promote that interest:

Used G15 Driver - great condition

New Adams hybrid - 5H

New G410 irons, 7-U

Used 56* Vokey (I cut it down for her)

Random putter with a new grip.

She can smoke her driver about 210-220, but her iron and short game need work. Now that our kids are older, hopefully she has some time to improve!
