Got some irons in the mail today. The Nickent 3DX Pro with stiff Nippon MS 1180 shafts. I think I called then NS Pros in another thread,but the site says "MS 1180" so that's likely the correct thing.

Initial thoughts are "how in the heck are these pro irons?" The best word to describe them is "thick." They have a thick topline and a super-thick sole. Lots of bottom weighting that most pros don't need (or they wouldn't play things like blades or near-blades). Perhaps Nickent is just sucking up to customers, making the 12-handicapper think they're a "pro" when they're not, but... I just don't know. Maybe I'm just way off. Maybe looks are deceiving here... Gosh I hope so.

I also got The Pipe putter. It's comparable to a Scotty Cameron C5 or, more easily, a two-ball. I like mallets and this is more a mallet than a blade. I could see how this would be an effective putter. I rolled some putts with it and it felt good, but the true test will come later. Don has a review of this coming along some time... Oh, and I like the look of the headcover.

Well if those knock the 735's out of you bag be sure to let me know.

I'll be interested to see how you like them once you get a little swing time with them. Not sure I could use the pipe putter. It just does nothing for me visually. I guess if I was draining everything I could change my mind though.

      I have nothing to add other than I freaking love her swing and I think she's hot as hell and some of my golfing buddies disagree so I fought them

      I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

      Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.

      If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there.
