WS FG59 ?

[Gerald]

Anyone playing or played the Wilson Staff FG59 ?

Gerald, didn't you just get your Ci9s?  If you're set on playing blades for fun I say dust off the W/S Fluid Feels-I played a set of those for two months earlier this year and found them about as easy to hit as any other blade I've ever tried.

Yepppp .... I like the Ci9's and at the moment if I play a tournament or monthly medal these are the sticks I will be using, but they are more like a midsize GI iron, than "control" irons. The Ci9's are great for hitting straight shots and they are lonnng aswell (very strong lofts)...... less workable than marketing suggests.

I actually am playing the old Fluid Feel Staff Tour Blades also at the range, mostly to gain accuracy, and played a few practice rounds with them ..... strange thing is ..... I am scoring better with these old worn blades (mine look awful, they have been beaten up and sitting in the garage for 20+ years......). But I have to get used to the "new" distances of the Ci9's.

Playing so well with the old Staffs, made me think of buying a similar set in a better condition, or a Hogan Apex or Apex II or any of the more classic Miz MP blades and one of the local clubmembers is selling a nice set of 2009 FG59's in a nice condition ...... haven't hit them yet, but they look great.

I was just wondering if anyone played these and what they thought of them, but it appears only 750 sets were made, maybe the slightly longer FG62 is a better choice, although the Fluids are also quite small blades.

What I like in the blades ...... maybe the higher center of gravity keeps the balls a bit down.....
