my better half threatens to take my other clubs and sell the whole lot on ebay for a euro.. dont even want to think what yours is saying.. hahaha

One of the advantages of running The Sand Trap is that I tend to collect clubs too. Unfortunately, I don't care for all of them, and I give most away to reduce clutter.

I give most away to reduce clutter.

Well I am new to the board but you can consider me a friend and I am always wanting to help a friend in need. I would love to help you reduce the clutter. Anything you are needing to get rid of, for my favorite price, Free 90 Free, just PM me or let good ol' Cody T know, lol.

Oh boy, you have to watch out for this guy. Those new golfers are kinda crazy!

As for me, I don't have much equipment as far as clubs goes. I am pretty good with getting something and sticking with it for a long time. I have new clubs, and I'll probably have those for a long time. The only thing I want to change is possibly my putter, but I'm content with everything else.

Everardo, you can send me one of those Scotty Camerons. I've been wanting a Scotty lately to complete my golf set. :)

Everardo... It is an illness and I don't think counseling or medical intervention can help you. Once you start down the path to the dark, er, light side there is no turning back.

Nice collection! BTW, I have enough trouble from one side of the ball to be switching like you do.

Something in my heart tells me to find a SC JAT, looks so sweet! I only own two putters, the one in my bag is a Ping AnserF with the Titanium Insert (same putter DiMarco uses). The putter before the ping was a Odyssey Dual Force 330. I just might half to get a JAT just to have and put away till I feel a need to switch putters again, or maybe a Newport Beach, or one of those new Studio Design mid-slants. So many choices! awwww

How much for the "PING!" (1A)?

You kidding, I don't want to sell any (no matter what my wife says)

Well I can definitely agree that its an illness. I think I have about 5 putters right now. Ping isopure, never compromise stubby, yes sophia, futura knock off and an old wilson blade.

I have 4 sets of irons right now. Two sets of titleist 990b, wilson fatshafts and an old set of wilson 1200's with some sort of counter torque shaft or something. (full set 1, 3, 4, 5, wood 2-pw putter in an old leather bag for 25 bucks at a yard sale, I,ll never play them but hey for 25 bucks you can't go wrong.)

I'm planning on getting a cameron for my birthday (end of jan.) Haven't quite settled on which one but I just love the feel of these things. Plus I'm not far from the home of cameron up at table rock golf club. They have quite a selection up there.

Now if I can just talk the wife into letting me get the new titleist 735's I'll be all set.

Happy birthday man! and he who dies with the most toys, still dies

I still have the original set of women's clubs I bought over the internet as well as two more sets of irons hanging around. Barry and I have a collection of mismatched clubs in an extra golf bag in our furnace room.

We even have a group of golf clubs and assorted training aids in our living room!

I see my husband switch off between putters and wedges alot but I stick with what's currently in my bag.

My Titleist Vokey Spin Milled Wedges rule!

My Mrs and I have a genuine imatation oak golf dual bag orginizer in our living room.My Mrs. has 2 sets of irons both Cobra and 2 bags oe carryand one cart.But our adiction goes much deeper as we have our own self built 1000 sq ft L93 bent grass green in the back yard.Is there a golfers anon?

[Donald MacKenzie]

At one point in time during the mid-90s I had 7 sets of irons, two bags full of woods/drivers and another bag full of putters/wedges, not to mention several dozen balls. Sure, I was the equipment editor for a golf magazine and hadn't paid for any of it, but it was still something of a sickness.

The best was the day we got a new water heater. The plumber came over to install the new heater and had to walk past my golf storage area to get there. He stopped and said, "Dude, either you're a pro golfer, or you've got a real expensive problem." He ended up waiving his labor fee for a couple dozen Maxfli Revolutions (back when they were a hot ball to play).

Most of it is gone now, and my friends and relatives have been the beneficiaries. But I still have all the putters, on the theory that every putter is just waiting for another chance to come off the bench and be a hero.

Despite all the putters I have, I still find myself lingering at the putter coral at used club shops and thinking, "Hmm, I would really like to have a 34" BeCu Anser 2..."

[Everardo]

Well the bug bit me again...damn that thing. The newest putter that will be joining my arsenal is a Scotty Cameron Futura Long putter. I tried a long putter of my buddies and kinda liked it so I figured what the hell and I'll have to include it in my Putter Test now.
