I just purchased a complete set of new clubs (15 of them) and a Ogio bag (used once) all for the cost of $600.00.  I am very excited about this purchase.  They aren't name brand clubs but when I ordered them they fit the clubs to my exact specifications, also with the grips, shafts, and heads that I chose.  For now, I am considered a weekend worrior wanting to improve my game on these clubs then eventually down the road get a more advanced set.  They are clone clubs that I got from Turbo Power Golf.  I know some of you are very against clones, but for as much as I play these clubs are going to suit me just perfect.

I usually will buy stuff new that came out a couple of years before. Bought the 06 Nike Ignite irons in 08 for 300 cdn. ,  06 Callaway x series 3 and 5 woods in 08 for 70 cdn a piece. This past winter bought an 09 Big Bertha Diablo driver for 140 cdn. Compared to the newest gear you cans save quite a bit this way and still play fairly decent stuff.

Driver: Ping G425 SFT, Fairway: Cobra F6 3/4 wood, Cobra F8 7/8 wood,Hybrids: PXG 0211 3 19* and 5 25* 

Irons: PXG 0211 XCor 2 6-PW

Wedges: Ben Hogan Equalizer 50*, Ben Hogan Equalizer 2 54* and 58*

Putter: Seemore Si1

Bag: Sun Mountain GPS: Bushnell Shoes: Addidas

Cart: Clicgear 2.0 Ball: Taylormade Tour Response

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By jsgolfer ·

      Both @DaveP043 and I play in our interclub matches every year, and have been team Captains as well.  There are always a few courses, mine is one, that win a lot of matches (we've won twice in the last 7 years), and we've been labeled as sandbaggers.  However, I really think that our course was rated too low (our greens just never seemed to get factored in enough), and thus our Handicaps were always a stroke or maybe 2 above, what they would've been if the course was rated higher.  And then when we went and played other courses, their slope and rating were much higher than ours, and sometimes I would get a 2 or 3 stroke bump on top of that.  It was definitely an advantage.  However, this past year, our course was rated again and the slope has gone up, so we'll see if we continue to have the same benefit.  Season starts this Sunday for us.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By snapfade ·

      I would not do anything until I met with an instructor and got your swing looked at. There are some obvious better club options out there though. Spend 50 bucks on a lesson, practice and start piecing together a bag that works for you. Enjoy the journey.
