TM Golf Guy182: I cant wait for you to HO your SB-1's.. its gonna be a great day had by all :)

 

Better be ready to wait. Grooves still have lots of life left, and the clubs are on the honeymoon that never ends. :man_in_love:

[w8liftr]

I would be in, but I'm back and forth between the L4V and 5000, I like them equally. Plus I am getting a new Scratch wedge in April when the new shop opens in TN

[kslinksguy]

MAN! I'm out before I even got in. I was reading the topic to my wife knowing she'd get a kick out of it, and she said "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you the golf shop called and your new wedgie-whatever arrived from Ping."

Your signature suggest that the putter is only on a short leash....

[ll.umpire]

OK, Im in BUT, I cant keep the 3 wood from the rental set at work for the whole year, but I am getting same club. And I will be buying my wedges soon. If anyone is selling wedges, Im looking for 2 wedges 52/60. I would like 10* or less bounce on the 60. Also looking for the Nike SQ 3 wood 15* with a regular shaft.

 

Can pay $45/wedge and the 3W up to $70, I know its not much but im in High School and have to buy my own clubs.

 

Will post my bag once I get the wedges, or at least order/buy them.

Normally yes but I have decided since all my putters are newport style that I'd pick one and stick with it. Sold my tour cameron and most of my other putters. Decided its me not the putter. Since then I've putted better.

[VA_Astra]

Ill post mine up after my fitting coming up...

 

Im going to try and keep some stuff more concrete this year and try shaving some strokes off of the game instead of trying out different equipment non stop.

 

But I will post up my bag today, and what I believe it is going to be:

 

Today:

07 Burner 10.5

KZG Q 3w

Nickent 3dx 20* Hybrid

I changed before the thread was started! I knew the club was coming, just had to wait to get it. Once it arrived it was set.

 

Cannon so far. Just hit it inside, but it is a bruiser.

[hibcam]

O.K. I am going for it. My bag is being built as we speak but here is what my bag will be...

 

Epon AF 1010 9.5* Driver with GD Tour AD Stiff Shaft

 

Epon AF 201 3 and 5 Woods with GD Tour AD Stiff Shafts

 

Nike 21* SQ2 Hybrid w/ Fujikura Speeder Stiff Shaft

 

Taylormade '09 Burners (tour heads) w/ KBS Tour 5.5 Black Nickel Shafts 4-AW

 

Vokey TVD 56* M Grind SW w/ KBS Tour 5.5 Black Ni Wedge shaft

 

Scotty Cameron 45" Custom Shop Kombi Long Putter

 

I have to admit that I have been looking for a new hybrid but I have not found one because I like the Nike.

 

The Burners heads are on the way and the Kombi will not be delivered until May.

Sweet bag, I can't wait until it is done.

Driver: MacTec NVG2 8.5

Hybrid: Hogan CFT Ti #3

Irons: Hogan Apex 2003 3-E

Wedges: Vokey Oil Can 52 & Oil Can SM 56

I do need to replace the wedges because of wear but will get the exact same ones (As I usually do).

[Rambler]

5 Wood: Nickent Tour Prototype (subject to change to x-stiff)

Irons: 3-PW r7 TP

Wedges: Getting replaced this summer.

Putter: Ping Anser3 (this is going to be my problem club)

 

I'll add one more club to my bad once I get my summer job then the bag is set.

 

<--- Just look at my avatar

[JakeBarnes]

LOL Will and Pete, are we actually putting a wager on this between us 3?

 

Well i cant add anything to mine yet because as you both know.. I'm HO'ing as we speak

 

Now is shaft HO'ing also counted?

 

I'd be game for a wager... even if just a nominal one. You gotta stop ho'ing an lock in! :cheesy:

 

This is going to be an interesting one!

 

 

What fun is this!?!

 

It's fun because it's a pipe dream. My bag was "set" about 2 months ago... and now I've changed half of my bag. You constantly see WRX'ers swearing off ho'ing... and runnign right back to it... It's kind of fun to see if people can stand by that promise with a level conviction

[PingClubJunkie]

New here, but I'm in for what its worth:

 

PING G10 DRAW 10.5*

Cleveland Hi-Bore XLS 3W 15*

PING G10 Hybrids 18* & 21*

PING G5 4i-PW

PING iWedge 52/11.5*

PING Tour-W 58/10*

Rife Island Series Barbados Black

 

Having that Cleveland 3W in the bag (as much as I like it) is throwing off my karma, so we'll see how long I can hold out.

I'd be up for a little wager as well. Maybe Bettinardi divot tools or hats or something small like that?

Welcome to WRX! Lofty goal for a new guy. If you can resist ho'ing from the start it might make life easier in the long run.

I'm game for the divot tools/hats idea. That would be a fun wager.

 

I do like the ambition for a new guy. Perhaps because he hasn't been tainted from all the WRX habits yet? In time... in time... oh, and btw, :welcomeani:

[PingClubJunkie]

Thanks for the welcomes. I'm happy to have found a group of folks who share my obsession, which seems less severe than I thought now that I've done some reading on here.

 

I'm new to the forum (which is the best I've seen, BTW), but not to the club ho' concept - a new (excellent) name for an old habit.

 

Until early this afternoon my irons were G5 4-7i, and i5 8-PW. I've got a set of each and decided today the G5's fit me better across the board. So... now I have a 4-PW set of i5's w/NS PRO 950GH that are surplus to add to my other 2 "extra" iron sets, several PING putters, multiple "generic" putters, drivers, woods, etc. I'm either going to have to sell off some equipment soon or add-on to my garage.

 

I'll be doing my best to stick with my current bag ... but I'm not ready to wager on the effort. No sense throwing away money that could go toward a G10 3W; right? :D

[Boba]

You guys are so done, I just have to wait for all my stuff to come in :crazy:

 

Also, since shafts don't count, I'll just list a rotation of shafts that I will rotate throughout the woods.

 

9.5° Tourstage 901 Tour AD EV-7S

15° Exoctics xcg v Tour AD stock crappy shaft thing

3-pw Tournament Blades project x 6.5

50° 57° 64° Vokey spin mills project x 6.5

Yes! Donna

 

Edit: Damit, I had to change putters and it looks like I won't have time to change shafts before Sunday.

 

I'm going to fail so hard

[loomsey]

Sun Mountain MPB Bag

[MchSt805]

Oh hell, let's see what happens. As of today, this is my bag:

 

EDIT: deleted my bag statement. Official setup to come soon.

 

Seeings how I just switched nearly my whole bag around since the end of last season, I'm pretty content right now. I'd like to work with everything and keep the bag fairly set this year. But I will not make any absurd claims or some people would jump all over me. It just comes down to curiosity, and me liking to try new things. I'll just leave it at that and not dig any holes...

[rankoutsider]

I'll put a TM Superquad cap into the pot. I went to the box store a month ago and they were in the 2 for 1 bin, and they were mispriced at 5.00. Great golf cap, and a whopping 2.50 (CDN no less). Needless to say, I have an assortment of colours available (all of them, seeing as how I bought 14 caps...). This isn't a trick, right? I mean, I am allowed to ho my cap?

 

If a Bettinardi divot tool is on the line, I won't change clubs this decade.

 

Rob

[Deerslayer]

I'll put my sons bag up....mine pales in comparison:

 

Callaway FT-9 Tour imix 8.5* - Matrix Ozik Xcon 5 shaft

Tour Edge Cb2 15* fairway -- Aldila DVS shaft

Tour Edge Cb2 18.5* fairway - Aldila DVS shaft

Callaway FT Tour 3 hybrid ---- Matrix Altus shaft

Callaway Prototype X Muscle Irons 4-PW -- Project X shafts

Callaway X Forged 53* SW -- Rifle Spinner Shaft

Callaway X Forged 57* SW -- Rifle Spinner Shaft

Machine M2a Custom Garage Putter

 

**every club in his bag is custom paint filled to match as well**

The Bettinardi bet is a little side action between Pure745, JakeBarnes, and myself. Just a little wager among friends/certified Bettinardi HO's.

 

Any other side bets should be handled/managed by those that care to be involved.
