you gotta be a little more specific than that man... what about the ap1's and ap2's? theyre both good clubs... ap1's are for higher h'cap, ap2's are for lower...

what else is there to say about it>

DST Tour 9.5 Diamana Whiteboard
909F3 15* 3 FW stock Aldila Voodoo
909F3 18* 5 FW stock Aldila Voodoo
'09 X-Forged 3-PW Project-X 6.0 Flighted
CG15 56* X-Tour 60* Abaco


With the 710 model's i don't think you can go wrong with either. They are both playable to around where your handicap is. If you progress below to a 5 handi you might outgrow the AP1's though.

Titleist 909 D2 9.5 Degree Driver| Titleist 906f4 13.5 degree 3-Wood | Titleist 909 17 & 21 degree hybrid | Titleist AP2 irons
Titleist Vokey Wedges - 52 & 58 | Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter | ProV1 Ball

I have a set of 2008 AP1s but I wish I had bought the AP2s. I now play Forged 690.CBs because I got a great deal on a "like new" set of 3-PW.
I would go with the AP2s.

If youre only 11, then i would go with the AP2. You will grow into them, eventually.

Why decide between them? If you're capable of hitting the AP2s - and you are - you can certainly hit the short irons from the set. If you're entertaining the idea of AP1s, I'm guessing you're more worried about your long irons than your short irons. The AP1/2 sets are the first ones I've been aware of that were designed to be mixed. You can get, say, ?-6 from AP1 and 7-W in AP2.

If you're just 11 years old, more distance will take care of itself as you grow bigger. Work on keeping that swing smooth!

Focus, connect and follow through!

I would go with the AP2s. I think you'll outgrow the AP1s. Another idea is to get a combo set. 7-PW AP2s and 4-6 AP1s - Or whatever combo you'd like. I've heard their is a difference in the loft degree (I think AP1s were lofted stronger?) between the sets, though. So if you went the combo route that would be something to look into.

4 Wood: G15

Irons: AP1 4-PW

Wedges: Vokey 52* & 60*, Mizuno MP-T 10 58*

There is a degree difference in the AP1 and AP2, but this is because the AP1 launches the ball higher for an equal loft. The differences, among other things, allow for the sets to be mixed.

    • By today’s standards that’s certainly true, but they weren’t having any trouble hitting golf balls in 2005 so I’ve equipped myself with what was among the very best equipment around that time for a very reasonable investment. If I get to the point where I feel like I’ve outgrown that stuff, I’ll reward myself with something more current. But for now I don’t need adjustable loft and lie and modern head shape, just a good quality, proven club with a clean club face. For now I’m going to concentrate on the basics. I know you can get more yardage with newer woods, but I don’t care about distance nearly as much as consistency, and you can’t buy that for any price.

    • Trying to feel bit more external rotation of the trail elbow at A4. I think better than what have ever been able to position it.  Forward lunge at impact still a work in progress.
