I am happy to have GBB Driver and Fairways in the bag -- forgiving, forgiving, long, adjustable, and I have a few shafts for the driver, 3 wd and 5 wd for proper fit. It's a relief not to dwell on the bag but to focus on the swing.

I just ordered a Callaway Great Big Bertha driver and I've got one of our assistant pros lined up to help me set it up to fit my swing. Hoping for a few more yards off the tee.

Im going into 2016 with new irons, wedges and a hybrid. I decided to go with the 716 AP1s, new Vokey wedges(52 and 56). I also picked up a Callaway X2Hot 19*. Im most excited about the irons. I think Titleist' new line is very good.

I am excited about the addition of a new Cobra Flyz adjustable driver to my bag which replaces my old G2 Ping driver

Excited about a club I want to add to the set which is not there yet.  Currently between my driver and 4 iron, I have no clubs that I can use effectively (got a 3 iron which I can't hit despite hitting my 4 iron perfectly well, a 3 and 5 wood from spalding and a 3 wood from mizuno).  Am thinking of putting only one club into that gap (4 or 5 wood most likely) unless I can hit the range and get my 3 iron to work properly, in which case may have to look at distance gap between the 3 iron and driver to find an appropriate club

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Soft 500 golf ball

At the end of last years season I switched from my Nike cart bag back to my Ogio Grom stand bag.
I am looking forward to walking and carrying every round this year.
I like the idea of consolidating and shedding all the things I don't need, yet seem to carry.

I wanted to go find a new driver (mine is 2009), maybe something adjustable with stiff shaft, but I dont think I can afford that this year!

In my Grom:

Driver-Taylormade 10.5 Woods- Taylomade 3 wood, taylormade 4 Hybrid
Irons- Callaway Big Berthas 5i - GW Wedges- Titles Volkey  Putter- Odyssey protype #9
Ball- Bridgestone E6
All grips Golf Pride

After a buying spree last season I think I'm all set for clubs.  The only club I still have in my bag that I had last February is my 52 Vokey gap wedge.  But now I have a rip in the ball pocket of my golf bag.  So I guess I need a new bag now.

Why not simply buy one of those ball bags that attach to your club bag?

Yeah, that would work.  Except I use two bags, depending on whether I'm walking or riding.  My walking bag is real light, and I don't keep a bunch of extra stuff in it.  It's my lightweight walking bag that's ripped.  And I don't think I'd want something swinging on the outside of my bag while I'm hoofing it around the course.  :-D

If you have read many of my posts, you know I play a lot of old school golf with wood woods and old blades. I am not snobby about it or anything, and like modern stuff too, but just have a good time with the old lumber. I have scoffed a bit over the years at carrying multiple wedges, normally carrying just the pitching wedge from the set and another wedge that is useful around the greens, adequate from the sand, and ok from 100 in.

Well, in my old club scrounging I came across an older set of Cleveland 588's, a 53, 56 sand, and a 60. Well dang, I have to admit I like the setup. If they keep working out, I may invest in a "real" set of wedges for my modern bag.

In the bag:

Driver: PING 410 Plus 9 degrees, Alta CB55 S  Fairway: Callaway Rogue 3W PX Even Flow Blue 6.0; Hybrid: Titleist 818H1 21* PX Even Flow Blue 6.0;  Irons: Titleist 718 AP1 5-W2(53*) Shafts- TT AMT Red S300 ; Wedges Vokey SM8 56-10D Putter: Scotty Cameron 2016 Newport 2.5  Ball: Titleist AVX or 2021 ProV1

Finally replaced the SW I lost last April. No more 1/2 swing PW for me! Narrowed down my gap too (53 instead of 56) so now the progression is 47-53-60 which should be a bit nicer (provided I can recalibrate my distances for that club!)

I played the Reg 588 wedges for several years. Very nice clubs.

After a long lay off due to injury, I am adding a 50 degree G wedge and a 60 degree L wedge to go with a 56 degree SW and a 45 degree P wedge.  I bought used Cleveland wedges that can all take the hide off a golf ball.  Since irons have been delofted in the name of greater distance, the P wedge has gone from around 50 degrees to 45 degrees in recent years. It is really the old 9 iron.

It will also be helpful to play with a rangefinder.

Old model but new Nike irons and hopefully a new Callaway Bertha mini 1.5.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
