Depends on your definition of a tour iron. There are a lot of scratch golfers and pro's out there that don't play blades. A lot of guys take advantage, pro and amateur alike, take advantage of cavity irons. Blades are tough to play,...

If you're looking to make it as easy as possible, you're doing the right thing by purchasing a complete set. Wilson makes a solid beginners set (my first set was Wilson and it was appropriate for several years). My only suggestion...

I have an Odyssey Rossie mallet putter. Love it, and paid $100 for it back in the day. Just a thought... If there is any club in the bag to spend the extra money on, IMO it is a putter. They'll save you a lot of strokes, and will...

As with any gear, whether it's sports, electronics, etc., I always wait about a year or two.  An example would be my current set of irons, Mizuno MP-52.  I believe they were $900 when they came out.  I bought them a few...

I realize it is winter in most parts of the US, but has anyone tried out Callaway's new Hex Hot Pro ball yet?   They are cheaper than my current ball of choice (NXT Tour... based on price vs. quality) at $27 a dozen.  I'm...

I would say the best "cheap" course I've ever played is Durand Eastman Golf Course in my hometown of Rochester, NY.  It's a beautiful course on Lake Ontario (the land owned by the county and leased by a golf company, so the rates...

Well, I knocked off Nevada a few weeks ago.  I played Wolf Creek in Mesquite, NV.  What a beautiful, but tough course.  It didn't help that I was horrible off the tee that day.  I definitely plan on playing it again...

I recently noticed some of the golf course pro shops around my area selling clubs at pretty nice discounts.  For example, the Mizuno MP-59 iron sets are on sale for only $650.  I've noticed they're still selling for $1,000 at...

I have not played to CB3s, but I did game the CB2s and loved them (which from what I hear is the old version of the CB3s).  I wound up going with MP-52s though, solely based on I had it narrowed down to CB2s, MP-52s, and AP2s......
