Cleveland I think... love their wedges, decent driver and woods, good hybrids, and the new CG Red irons where my second choice. And for me scoring is done with irons and wedges... and of course putting, but almost everyone has a tolerable putter.

Don't think I would like to stick to one manufacturor, you wouldnt have as many options, if I HAD to choose manufacturer it would be Nike, cos' they look good, or maybe Wilson Staff cos' I like them.

I get lots of clubs for free, but there's a trade-off: I have to spend several hours playing and then writing about clubs that may not be the ones I want to be playing. Playing otherwise great clubs that just don't suit me can be bad for my golf game.

Most people who do reviews get the "stuff" for free. That's how things work. And FWIW, my current set of irons are either TMs or Mizunos. Titleist driver, hybrid, 3W, wedges, and putter though.

If you ever find yourself overloaded with clubs to test, feel free to have them send them out to me. I would gladly test a 9.5 degree Titleist 907 D2 with a stiff shaft.

I sold off a bunch of clubs last fall. Where were you?!?!

OK, anyway, let's get back on topic (which isn't "free stuff for writing about it.").

As much as I love my Mizuno Irons. I'd have to go with

Tough choices all around. Where my game is right now I could live with

PING . The G5 driver, s58 irons, MB wedges, and their Anser Putters. My only weak link there is their fairway woods. Mizuno (since I played the MP32 blades all of my life almost and Titlelist would be a close second just because of their irons.) I prefer the Callaway Steelhead III or TM V Steel fairway woods.

I would hate to shed my TM 'woods" but I would play PING's 'woods" before I would play TM's irons and putter.

Its always amazing to me that once a player finds clubs he really likes, he generally stays with that brand forever. Its like GM vs. Ford vs. Mopar vs. Japanese vs. German in vehicles, most people just stay with the same brand forever (I'm a GM guy with a Caddy, Corvette, Tahoe, & CK2500 4x4 Pickup).

I kind of like the Taylor Made brand - in my eyes they produce the best drivers on the market, I have the R7 Quad and I absolutely love it. I also play the RAC MB combo irons which are really nice and have excellent feel even with the longer irons, whilst remaining relatively forgiving. I have the Taylor Made 56* RAC Black wedge but I will admit that Titleist Vokeys are far superior, I have the 52 and 60* in the oil can model. It is probably a close battle between Titleist and Taylor Made, but due to personal preference I will go with Taylor Made.

In my bag:

Ping, love the G10 driver, fairways, hybrids, tour/ tour-w wedges, s59/58 irons, i10 irons, and my ping karsten putter, although I would play Srixon balls (Z*URS )

    • Broke the head of a Stealth Plus on a warm up. TaylorMade send me a new head but I decided to upgrade it to the new IQ10 LS and pay the difference. While I was waiting for the 8° head to arrive at the store I messed around with all the multi brand putts they had available. I instantly liked a black TaylorMade Spider, not the new one but very similar. The weight felt perfect. Big line in the middle for easy alignment. I was playing and old Zebra so the change in technology and feel was huge. Fast review of both clubs.. Driver QI10 LS. I always hit to ball up in the sky. I was playing the stealth at 7° with a 60g X low flight shaft and I was still hitting it pretty high. With the QI10 playing it at 6° now is almost hard for me to hit it high, with the same shaft the ball comes out lower and with less spin. so I'm really happy with the change. Putter Spider. I love it. It took me an afternoon to figure out how to grip it (it comes with a superStroke grip) but after that it all came into place. More stable on short putts and a good weight to swing smoothly on long putts and with added forgiveness over my old zebra.  
    • I have a 2h but we don’t get along anymore. It’s a bit of an abusive relationship - she gives me just enough hope once in a while that things are going to be better and then it’s back to the same old shit. I went to a PING fitting recently with the intention to replace the hybrid with a 5w or something, thinking maybe I’ll be better with a fairway wood than a hybrid. But it turns out the best club I hit that fits in that slot in the bag is another hybrid so I ordered it.
    • Day 547, May 2, 2024 18 holes with @DrizZzY using my TruStick®. Hit a LOT of really good shots today.
    • Not the last thing I bought or bought anything at all but Sun Day Red stuff seems a bit overpriced for it essentially being rebranded Nike apparel. I'm hearing the resale prices are wild though. Either way, I highly doubt I will indulge as I'm not much of a brand guy or a collector. But to keep up my super nice guy image have never turned down a gift though 😇 Tiger doesn't seem to sell stuff like MJ or Kanye did.
