After asking questions, getting answers, reading threads and accessing all of the great information on this web site I decided to purchase a pre-owned Callaway Steelhead III 5w for $30 off of Ebay.

I went to range at lunch today to try it out and I must say it was a $30 well spent.

Now let me point out that I have not been playing very long and am very inconsistent to say the least.  But from the very first swing of this club (hitting off a mat) I was drilling shots straight as an arrow at least 170-180 yards.  And the club was making a sweet ping every shot to boot.

For someone on a budget,  or someone who just wants a fine club at an inexpensive price I highly recommend the Steelhead III.

Callaway Pre-Owned is awesome.

I had the same Hawkeye driver for 12 years or so,  and decided to pull the trigger on an Octane Tour, and my distance increased by a LOT over my old club.

After a year and a half or so,  I decided to get a club a buddy has that I hit even better,  so for only $90 shipped,  I managed to snag an 8.5* Razr X Black.....   should be here Monday,  and I can't wait.

My Diablo Octane Tour was listed as  "Average" condition, and it looked brand new when I got it......   I've been spying Callaway Pre-Owned's site for a few weeks now,  waiting on a set of Mizuno or Titleist blades to show up.....  no rush to replace my irons, but it's so cheap (comparatively)  to what I paid for my Titleist irons when I got them new, that I don't mind paying the price of what comes out to a few rounds of golf,  to get something new.

Great Club, I have Callaway steelhead III 3w and 5w, got 3w almost 8years ago with steel shaft, 5w from ebay 3years ago, the sound and feel just being great, modern fairway wood just nowhere near it, especially now they use different martial for the head i never found anything sound like the steelhead. So last year reshaft both of them with project x 5.5, it not as far as tm rocketball but it still create distance and flight i want, i think i will bag them forever, and with such old club in your bag, it just make u feel little special when u play with ur mates.

    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

    • Day 3- Practiced putting for 20 minutes. 
    • Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course. 
    • 43 (6 over) Couple bogies, couple Pars, a birdie and no doubles. Not bad for first 9 of the year. 
    • Most the stuff I found on Instagram and just copy and mix it up. a few of my favorites: Clean>Squat>Press> March Around the body >catch >Squat> press I also hold a the kettle bell upside down with both hands on the handle. Squat when I stand back up I lift the kettlebell up over and behind my head and hold then repeat
