You had a PING all along?!? I should have paid attention. If you just have the new club bug try getting it regripped-makes it seem different and brand new. If you really want something new and non-PING then the Cleveland Classic is the way to go.

yea got it for free along w/some other clubs. I gotta get it cut down to like 33" tho. Maybe thats why I dont love it cause it seems long.

In my bag:
R9 Driver 10.5 - R-Flex - Graphite
R9 3 & 5 Woods - R-Flex - Graphite
Tight Lies GT 2-8 Irons - R-Flex - Steel
Tight Lies IDEA A1 56* Sand Wedge - Steel Ascent 2 48* Pitching Wedge - Graphite IC 20-10B Mid Mallet 33" Dura Feel V Glove NXT Tour Ball

Ping karsten series.

Agreed. You can usually find good deals on them and they are certainly a quality putter.

Driver Ping G10 10.5*
Hybrids Ping G5 (3) 19* Bridgestone J36 (4) 22*
Irons Mizuno MP-57 5-PW
Wedges Srixon WG-504 52.08 Bridgestone WC Copper 56.13
Putter 33" Scotty Cameron Studio Select #2

Go to a golf store and just hit a bunch of different types.
Mallets, mid-mallets, blades, 2-ball, center and back shafted, milled, inserts . . .
You get the idea. Dont worry about brand but what 'looks' and feels good.
Once you find a type when worry about brand.

What's in my sweet Sun Mountain Bag

3-Wood: Burner
5-Wood: G10
Hybrids: 23 26 Gold Pro Irons: Slingshot 6-A Wedge: 54 & 58 Scratch  Putter: White Ice #1 Gotta have balls: Vapor

Don't be too proud to try a "mid" length putter. I like the 43 inch models. I started with a cheap off brand, went to an Odyssey blade, and just in the last couple of weeks to an Odyssey 2-ball. To me, this underhand toss motion is the natural way to putt, and I think more people would use it if they didn't think it looked goofy, or unmanly, or who knows what. Right now there are Odyssey 2-balls that are selling on eBay for $55 to $85, plus shipping. Got mine for $62, and I think it's going to be one of my best equipment buys ever.

    • Day 1: 2026.01.03 Played 18 at Cape Kidnappers. Getting back into it after a few days off. Mixed results.
    • Day 40: short range session. Worked on my drill mostly. Finished with some full swings and driver swings. Range was packed because it was so nice out. Solid session though. 
    • Day 5, 1/3/26.  Today was a weird day schedule-wise, but I did find 15 minutes to hit 6-iron shots (indoors, off a mat, into a net).  I also got to thinking about yesterday's round and, other than a few thin shots (that I think were weather/grip related), I didn't have any wild non-driver shots, which was weird for me.  I need to get back to video, which is tough in my setup. Also, this wouldn't count on its own, but anyone reading this and thinking about doing their own 5 minutes daily, check out Fit for Golf's latest podcast episode.  It's only a few minutes and Mike does a great job talking about the importance of doing a bit each day.  That also reminded me, I let my FFG subscription lapse, I'm going to renew it.
