Hey Everyone. Questions about the top end of my bag.

I currently have a ping g410 Driver, cleveland launcher 5w (2009) and ping g30 irons 5 to pw. Vokey 52 58 and a scotty cam.

I wanna upgrade the top end of the bag.......I love my driver, irons...........gonna go with a 50 54 vokey setup next year. 

I dont play a 3 or 4 iron as most shots i'm gonna hit to go for 2 on a par 5 are a layup or I play the 5 wood. 

I was thinking of a 2h 4h combo as I can play them for the fairway easier. Or even a 4w, 3h combo. Open to any suggestions but now the g425's and the sim2 max are catching my eye. I play mainly wetish courses on the east coast of canada. 

Thanks

Look at the loft on your hybrids/woods/long irons.  I currently have a 2h (17*) and 4h (22*).  When hit cleanly the 2h is longer but the 4h is hit cleanly most times, unlike the 2h.  I have found that loft is your friend.

Also, find the clubs you want and hit them out on the course.  You may well find them suitable/unsuitable depending on actual conditions and your swing.

Finally, unless you hit long clubs well, you will find many of them going similar distances, as I have discovered with my 2h and 4h, a large percentage of the time

Thanks for the info..........for that reason I was thinking the 3H in the sim 2 max. The g425 5 iron is 24degrees and the 3h is 19. 

I never liked hitting a 3w off the deck.

    • 6 rules changes the PGA Tour is enacting in 2026 (and what triggered them) The PGA Tour shared several rules changes with its players on Tuesday. Here's what you need to know about why the rules have been modified.    
    • JPX ONE Driver - Mizuno Golf Official Website Discover the JPX ONE Driver - /jpxone/jpxone-driver-hero-mobile.webp /jpxone/jpxone-logo-white-lg.svg The World’s first NANOALLOY™ DRIVER... Mizuno is introducing new technology with their JPX One fairway woods and drivers. The new tech for golf but used tech for Mizuno since it is found in their baseball side of the business, is Nanoalloy. Nanoalloy is a microscopic polymer layer put on the face of their titanium driver. What this layer does is change the elasticity of the driver face and increases ball speed over a larger area of the clubface. Adding a bit more elasticity with this layer, they are conserving the golf balls energy from the impact.  Due to USGA rules, this technology falls under their coating regulations. Which add a correction factor to the ball speed testing done for conforming golf clubs. This rule was introduced when Taylormade went to their carbon clubface. Which I didn't know existed.  I am sure that center strikes are at the USGA limits like all other drivers. This has my interest. I am always, "window shopping", for new golf equipment 😉
