Looking at purchasing a new 5 wood and recently tried out the new rbz 2 which was going pretty good but unfortunatley quite pricey.  I've managed to find the original rbz for £50 less and can anyone tell me if there's any difference between the 2 clubs?

I have the Stage two 3-wood and I haven't tried the original, so there could be a difference or there could not. I would test the clubs and hit them side by side.

I played last year with the original RBZ 3W.HL (basically a 17* 4W) and a 7W. Problem I had was the plain RBZ (non-Tour) only had 45-gram shafts. Had a lot of trouble with hook misses (not a problem with other clubs), and the clubs felt really light. Also, the RBZ were decent off the tee and out of light rough, but I had trouble getting the ball up from the fairway. A couple of pros said this relates to the RBZ head design.

The plain RBZ Stage 2 has a lower-profile head, and 60-gram shafts as stock. These felt and flew OK on test hits in January and April. But, I traded in the original RBZ on someone else's woods.

Test-hit the original RBZ and see if you like them. Some people think they are great, while others went for a quick trade. If you can find an original RBZ in a Tour model with the flex you need, give them a try - Tour had heavier shafts.

Focus, connect and follow through!

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.

      This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.

      One handed swing faster?

      By davidgolfman ·

      He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
