ok.. thanks for the advice..

That would be a good choice...just as long as you get a shaft that fits your swing.

In the bag:


Driver: Tour Burner 9.5* w/ Aldila VS Proto stiff shaft
Woods: Burner 15* 3 Wood w/ Fujikura, stiffHybrid: 503H w/ Aldila NV, stiffIrons: 755 3-9 w/ Project X 5.5 shaftsPitching Wedge: MP-T 47*Gap Wedge: MP-T 51*Sand Wedge: MP-T 56*Putter: Rossa SienaBall: Laddie/Laddie...

ski,

This is what I ordered.

Men Right Taylor Made r7 Draw Driver 10.5° Regular Graphite Taylor Made Mitsubishi Rayon RE*AX 55g Me and a friend played 9 holes today and believe it or not the course had this driver for a demo so I was able to play with it. I really like it, it took a couple of holes to get used to it. But it played very well. Thanks, Ski

Well it's definitely warm enought to play here, we play twice a week. Usually only 9 holes. I really appreciate the help, I didn't think a simple question would shoot up to three pages but thanks. Next is new irons, but thats for farther in the future. Plus I have to figure out how to sneak this stuff in the house past my wife.

Hopefully you have as good of luck getting them in as you did finding the right ones...

I pretty much went with the exact same club except mine was the TM R7 as well - but not the draw version. Everything else is the same.

Thanks to everyone for all of their feedback. With all the different clubs out there is tough to make an informed decision without the knowledge of all you out there..

      This is an awesome breakdown. most of the bigger tournaments usually have one wave with the advantage, Thank you for the breakdown. If it is soft then it will be a lower final score

      The Players -2026

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Over the past 15 years, the winning score has ranged from -10 to -20. Mostly around -13.  Here is Thursday and Friday weather. Saturday and Sunday weather. I think the course will play soft. Plenty of sky cover, lots of rain on Thursday. Fairways and greens will probably stay soft throughout the week.  In terms of tee times, I think Thursday morning and Friday afternoon have the biggest advantage. I bolded the big group of each set.  Most beneficial with the weather Round 1: No. 1 tee, Round 2: No. 10 tee 7:40 a.m., 12:30 p.m.: Mark Hubbard, Thorbjørn Olesen, Mac Meissner 7:52 a.m., 12:42 p.m.: Bud Cauley, Vince Whaley, Chandler Phillips 8:04 a.m., 12:54 p.m.: Emiliano Grillo, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Max Greyserman 8:16 a.m., 1:06 p.m.: Kevin Yu, Cam Davis, Gary Woodland 8:28 a.m., 1:18 p.m.: Ricky Castillo, Ryan Gerard, Patrick Cantlay 8:40 a.m., 1:30 p.m.: Adam Schenk, Garrick Higgo, Matt McCarty 8:52 a.m., 1:42 p.m.: Brian Harman, Maverick McNealy, Davis Riley 9:04 a.m., 1:54 p.m.: Sami Valimaki, Lucas Glover, Matt Fitzpatrick 9:16 a.m., 2:06 p.m.: Michael Brennan, Harris English, J.T.

      The Players -2026

      By MentalityJohn · Posted

      We have a very difficult but mostly showy course this week. Lets see what they got. This course offers so many chances to get into trouble it is really a mental minefield. I am excited to see who can handle it and who cant. Last year we got a foreshadowing of JJ and Rory, I am excited for this year Who do people have winning? what will the winning score be? I am thinking 12 or 13 under
