  2. I went to the Callaway used site and purchased an older model Callaway Epic with a shaft that had a similar weight and bend profile, I've only hit it a few times so far but it seems to go farther than my old one. paid $195 for the older epic with a matrix white tie shaft
  3. I recently went for a driver fitting at club champion, the fitter had me try several shafts and he picked one that I had good numbers with (which was fine) I asked why I never tried any of the stock shafts that are offered with the club. I was told that "they don't do that" which means to me that they just want to up charge you. which is bull, the club he was trying to sell was over $800 with the up charge. If the fitting was only about finding the best fit for me we should have tried cheaper options to see. Just food for thought.
  4. i have tried many hybrids and Have never been able to hit one with out hooking it, maybe its in my head. just ordered a 2 iron. we will see if that works for me
  5. I tend to be a hooker also, its usually caused by not leading the shot with your body and letting your hands pass which closes the face, if you are also a little over the top this can cause a pull fade with your woods and a pull hook with the shorter clubs.
  6. Thanks, I went to Golfsmith and got fitted, tried several different irons and settled on the apex irons, they do have offset which I am not used to but they felt great and the numbers were great also, they didn't seem to increase a hook so I took the plunge. They should be in in about 2 weeks. I hope they work as good as they felt on the indoor simulator.
  7. thanks for the info, went to Golfsmith and hit the Apex irons with the offset they felt great and seemed to hook less that my gamers. Set up a fitting for Friday. Seemed like I set up with the ball a little back in my stance to compensate, but they felt great.
  8. I am looking to buy new irons this season. currently playing with Macgregor JNPs reshafted with Nippon shafts. I have been using the same irons for over 20 years and think my swing could use a little more help than these irons give me. My dilemma is that my miss is a pull hook. I know that it is fundamentally a swing error (a little bit of a flip) that I am working on. That being said I don't want to exasperate my problem but the idea that offset promotes a hook is not an absolute and I have read a lot of controversy on the topic. I am looking at the Callaway apex which has the forgiveness that I want or maybe the AP2 which has less offset. This is a big expense and I don't want to get it wrong. Thanks for any info
  9. from Long Island, snow forecast for this weekend going out of my mind
  10. Shot about 200 balls out into the snow, maybe 100 good. Need to see grass going nuts with all this snow.
  11. Gaming an older cobra driver, need a new one (like the new Callaway big bertha alpha) 3 and 5 wood Adams irons- Macgregor JNPs 3- pw reshafted Nippon 1050gh Volke 52 and 58 putter ping nome adjustable
  12. A lot this winter. Retired in October and am stuck in the house going nuts. Just got another 12 inches of snow yuck!! feel like ill never play again.
  13. there will always be different skill levels and I would assume that you would still be better and faster even with bigger holes and balls.
  14. Tried the new Callaway Big Bertha alpha at Golfsmith, Wow!! the best driver I have ever hit. I want one. But $500.00 yikes. Cant show up on credit card, hard to explain to wife.
