Yes, try the new VR Pro blades.  I tried them at a Nike demo day this past weekend at my local range, and as a Mizuno guy, I was awfully tempted to make the switch.

 

In my Mizuno Aerolite IV Stand Bag:

Driver: Titleist 910D2 (9.5°, RIP Alpha 70S)
Wood: Titleist 910F (15°, RIP Alpha 70S)

Irons: Mizuno MP-68 Irons (3 - PW, C-Taper S+), Mizuno MP-33 2 Iron (C-Taper S+)

Wedges: Vokey Spin Milled (56.11 - Bent to 54°, 60.07 Tour Chrome, C-Taper S+ DSS)

Putter: Scotty Cameron Newport 2 (34")

Ball: Titleist Pro-V1x

GPS: Garmin Approach g5

Most useful training aids (for me) that I use: Tour Striker Pro 7 Iron, Swingyde, Tour Sticks alignment sticks, Dave Pelz Putting Tutor

For Nike, check our the VR Pro Combo family of irons. Really interesting how you can mix and match.

Next, check out the Cleveland Launcher drivers. Total club weight varies between 270 to 310 grams. I could feel difference between the 270 and 310 models, but not the 290.

Also, ask around about the superlight shafts on some OEM drivers and fairway woods. One rep worried that the superlights were too soft in the tip, and that medium and stronger players would have major problems spraying the ball. Maybe you could give us an ST "Consumer Report" on what people say.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I noticed this week that our local Golf Galaxy got in a new Callaway cart.  It looked like it had about 15-20 different graphite shafts that you could put on their club heads to try out.

Wish they had that when I was buying my clubs.

We have one on the 16th here. Have a set appointment with the Titliest van and I am really curious to see how the new 910 compares to my current 905. I hit the 905 so straight and consistent that it will take a big jump in distance to get me to pony up for a new driver. Also plan on hitting the Burner 2.0 TP and the Adams driver. I am excited as you are. But like I said...there will need to be a major improvement to get my 905 out of my bag.

Well it was real fun! Me and my bud both hit the r11 and Burner. I loved the r11, was bombing it with a couple of little tweaks, alot better than my r9. My bud turned out to be burner guy and was rippin it farther than me. I loved their woods, liked both but the r11's a little better because of the adjustability. The burner 2.o irons were sweet as well but i didnt find any irons to replace my i15's. Other than that, i didnt really like any of the other brands equipment.

Thanks for the update and report. Now that you have hit the Burner and 2.0 and the R11...why the R11. I guess I will be comparing the 2.0 TP and the R11. Not the regular burner. I guess my question is once you get fitted for a driver, why would you even want it adjustable? I do like the R11 look at address better, but I think that is because I am not a fan of the Burner graphics on top of the head.

    • You get a penalty stroke because your local committee didn't do their job, they didn't address the specific conditions using the tools available to them within the Rules.  The rulemakers contemplated just this situation, bunkers being so filled with Temporary Water that they're unplayable.  The only way to address it "fairly" is to allow free relief outside the bunker, and they do NOT want to allow that on an everyday basis.  So they write the rules as it is, and allow the Committee to override the normal rule in the rare instance where the bunker really is full.  That's what your "local league" does, they invoke Model Local Rule F-16, which treats flooded bunkers as both GUR and as General Area.  Relief from GUR in the General Area allows relief in the General Area (i.e. outside the re-defined bunker).  Its quite a logical way to approach a relatively rare situation. Separately, consider your concern about temporary Water in the fairway.  I've seen situations in relatively level fairways where the Nearest Point of Complete Relief  from Temporary Water is 30 or 40 yards away, further from the green, even in the rough.   
    • There you go, @yungbuck6. Your hips aren’t really shifted forward and your head tips back. The camera angle isn’t good so what looks like hip slide could actually just be extension towards the ball.
    • But there's more to weight shift than just where you finish. How your weight transfers throughout the swing matters too.  But you're saying you can see it better than a device that can measure it? Got it.  Yeah I'm good here, good luck to whoever tries to coach you.
