What does " Do you think we should guy sth in OEM.?" even mean? Are you suggesting the major golf OEMs are overcharging for their wares?

The designation Cici must represent an acronym – my guess - Computer intelligence created internally. It has to be the work of some post-grad shut-in at M.I.T. conducting some kind of semiotic AI experiment. I mean seriously, I have a cousin with both expressive and receptive aphasia and he makes more intelligible sense.

depends on what you want cici. if you care about how the clubs feel, then it doesn't matter what clubs you have. as long as they work for you.

Yes we should buy original clubs and not counterfeits.  No questions about it.  If somebody wants to go with a lesser known company that has a similar or "clone" club I don't have a problem with that (i.e. GigaGolf) but to buy something that says "Titleist" when it isn't is wrong.

I don't know why I'm making a serious response in this thread, but here goes.  I don't care for the GigaGolf stuff at all.  They're blatantly selling clubs that look extremely similar to the OEM models (a quick glance at the irons page reveals PING, TM, and Callaway).  It might be one step above selling a fake, but it's a very small step.

If we can't laugh at ourselves we'll probably go around mad all day.

Cici, That's a joke son, a joke.  I am not only from the south, that would be south in these here United States, but also grew up way out in the country.  So yeah, I may talk a little funny too.

While it's a small step, it's a big enough step for me that I don't take issue with it.  They are clones, and are definitely taking ideas and designs from other, larger companies, but it seems like they are doing so legally at least.  Is the quality as good, I doubt it... but at least with them you know exactly what you are getting unlike counterfeits where you may think you are actually getting the real thing.

All that being said, you won't ever find a set of GigaGolf clubs (or any other clones) in my bag.

    • Day 6: 2026.01.09 Some swing work in the mirror. Need to work on home setup to be able to get more out of evenings where I can't make it to the range.
    • I would like to amend my original comment on the new Maxfli irons. Yes, $800 for forged irons is a pretty good price and they do feel good BUT...I have since found out that $800 is only for off the shelf, standard issue clubs with standard lengths, lofts, lies and shafts. Any change made from stock results in huge up-charges so that the final price ends up pretty much the same as similar forged irons from any of the major manufacturers.
    • These were almost all included on the list of Clarifications or revised Model Local Rules released just a few days ago.  I'm pretty sure the first 3 are brand new MLRs (Moved/Wrong Place, Embedded Ball in someone else's pitch mark, Internal OB applies only to tee shot) that the PGA Tour is choosing to use.  The 16.1 Rule (relief near a Putting Green) was revised allowed a Committee to give relief for more than just Immoveable Obstructions, microphone holes would be classed as GUR (a hole made by the maintenance staff).  The replacement club rule was available before, the E-3 (Lift Clean and Place distance) could have been defined as "one scorecard" before, they're just a change in how the PGA choices. Here are the January 1 Clarifications and revised MLRs https://www.usga.org/content/usga/home-page/rules-hub/clarifications-of-the-rules-of-golf.html#cp
