Ive seen them in some peoples club lists... But i havent heard any reviews of them... I wanna build a combo set to start practice with and for some reason these struck me as pretty cool, and for a good price.

Well, a friend of mine told me that GolfSmith has a nifty deal. I haven't gone to verify this myself yet, but allegedly the deal is that they have $15 club-building seminars, in which you build a sand-wedge, and keep it afterwards. Niftier? It's free with a coupon you get for signing up for their free card.

Now, I'm not a regular at GolfSmith - I buy from a competitor with regularity, since I think RD has better deals around here - but I'm going to do this. The wedge is Snake Eyes. If I do this, I'll post a write-up of the process and something about the club.

Driver:  Titleist 915D2.  4-wood:  Titleist 917F2.  Titleist TS2 19 degree hybrid.  Another hybrid in here too.  Irons 5-U, Ping G400.  Wedges negotiable (currently 54 degree Cleveland, 58 degree Titleist) Edel putter.

I built myself a 5-SW set of Snake eyes Python OS. I sold them for my Adams, but still use the SW.

Snake eyes was a very popular wedge back in the day....there are still a few pros using snake eye wedges...if the stories are true....

Golfsmith bought them just like they bought Lynx, Killer Bee, etc.
There is nothing wrong w/ snake eyes the python os clubs played very nice, and there is a lot of confidence and pride when you have assembled your own clubs.

I also use a Snake eyes driver, and balls

The Snake Eyes heads are as good in qaulity as those as Mizunos and Titleists etc etc.

The main advantage of using a company such as Snake Eyes (via Golfsmith) is the opportunity to get custom fit for your clubs, this opportunity is not always available when buying brand name clubs.

I would definately recommend Snake Eyes.

I just did this clubmaking workshop this past Saturday. Built a 600W Forged 52deg wedge, and bent it to 48deg. The workshop was a lot of fun, I learned a lot and I love the wedge.

Note: The 600W is not the wedge head they normally give you as part of the class, but you can pick your head and pay the difference.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, I might have to get out of the C-Taper golf shaft. I have an older Mizuno with a KBS Tour shaft in. I was messing around with closing my eyes and feeling where the weight of the club is being felt at. The C-Taper was all in my fingers. I didn't feel much of anything of the club head or shaft of the club. It felt super heavy in my hands. The KBS Tour I could feel a weight further away from my hands, out in space.  The Mizuno weights 2 grams more, but is about 2-3 swing weights lighter than my current irons.  So, yea. I am thinking I might sense the club better with maybe a less stout golf shaft and maybe a lighter swing weight. Probably more to do with the golf shaft. I am thinking the feeling of the weight out in space is more of the shaft loading more easily.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      A bit back at it tonight. I just wanted to add in the feel of a softer left arm through out the backswing. This helps me hinge the club. I make sure I am not bending it a ton, but not straightening it. It helps feel like I can keep the club in front of me more and lift the club up sooner.
