My New Club Setup

With some of my Christmas money, I've started to upgrade my setup a little bit since I didn't have the greatest clubs before, but without further ado, here's part of my new setup.

Burner Bag & Bag

Burner Driver

Burner Plus 4-PW Irons (Being Shipped)

Burner T5 Fwy Wood/Hybrid (Put on Hold)

Rossa Monza Spider Vicino Putter

I yet, still have to find a decent set of wedges. And also if you haven't noticed, I'm a fan of TaylorMade clubs! My irons should be here soon, because they're being shipped. And my Hybrid is currently on hold until I get my irons.

If possible by any chance, please give me some feedback on my newly upgraded bag & club setup.

Thanks,

Brendon

Oh, I'll definitely have to check that out because I'm still using my wedges from my old set since I haven't purchased new wedges yet. Thanks a lot!

If you like wedges with a lot of bounce, take a look at Callaway X-Forged. They are on clearance for $70 or less at lots of places.

I played the X-Forged 56.14 last season with good results. I swapped it out for a CG14 54* and a 58* (and dropped my 4 iron). But, the 56.14 might make it back in the 54 + 58 is too much hassle.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I haven't tried playing with Callaway wedges at all; yet. But, I'll try to check em' out. I was also looking at those Adams Golf Tom Watson PVD-3 wedges as well. They're going for about $70 on RockBottomGolf.

      Day 11, 1/11/26.  Today was putting, along about 6' of carpet, with coins on the ground to keep me cognizant of what I'm doing.  I think this is the at-home drill from LSW. (Ugh, missed two of the last four days -- 1/10 and 1/8)

      Mizuno Jpx One Driver & Fairway Woods

      By M2R · Posted

      I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
