well after a couple days of trying to find an iron set that has the bladier/playabilty look but also has some forgiveness to them, i bought a one season used set of these > http://www.titleist.com/golfclubs/irons/755.asp , off of ebay for 150 bucks plus 15. which it looks like is a pretty good deal after seeing what others are going for. the set is 3-9, im pretty excited to get 'em in.

It would be very obvious if they were counterfit.
They would be much lighter/heavier than normal, distance would be bad, and they would feel horrible.

Would you post the link to the ebay auction? I'd like to their condition and try to help notice any signs of counterfit if there are any.

Other than that, these are very good irons, congrats.

(Off topic: how is the XLS treating you? I just adore mine. It's damn straight. I hit 13 out of 14 fairways last Friday on the BMW event qualification round, and it's damn long as well!)

The 755's must be decent sticks. They're good enough for Steve Stricker.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT and yeah i really like mine too, it goes real straight.. sometimes higher than i would like but some of that is probably from me having the fujikura gold fit on shaft instead of the red fit on.

Very odd that other clubs similar to these are being listed for $100+ more and you were the only bidder for these.
Just an observation.

Odd, but not all that unusual. I've bought many things on Ebay, and sometimes you just get lucky. Got my 909 D3 for 140 used, and I was the only bidder. Friend of mine (a local pro) verified it's real.

I have the same shaft. This usually happens to me when my swing plane gets less flat. When I turn it back flat the trajectory is the penetrating mid-air I like again.

he looks legit. he's sold some Bridgestone irons and a SunMountain bag. doesnt look like the type that buys/sells counterfeit crap. im sure they are cool. great irons too. if you want the pitching wedge try ironfinder.com or something likt that. or heck, even ebay probably has some

    • However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.
    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
