Wow...a pre-owned FT-5 driver for $275? It just came out weeks ago and the retail price is $429.99! What was the guy thinking? I bet it's still in excellent condition. You've got yourself a sweet deal, customx808.

Sorry $375 my bad but still a good deal..I was looking to buy it brand new but they were sold out ...they had one used one and it was pretty much brand new..i was satisfied...i hit my friends FTI on the course though and it was 5-7 yards longer than my ft5..boo wut to do lol...

My Callaway 454 Ti Driver. Two years ago I was teeing off with irons cause I couldnt hit a driver for crap. Bought this thing, took some lessons and I get great distance out of it, really shaved strokes off my game. Its nice hitting wedges in on a 400 yard hole, instead of 5 or 6 irons.

my calloway bertha 13 wood with the uniflex steel shaft has been great for me.

i only use a 7 iron through my wedges.
anything less, i have 5 woods in my bag, including a 9wood, and my 13 wood, which has saved me valuable strokes from 165 to 190 yards in.

It's looking like taking my three iron out of the bag, replacing my 18* hybrid with a 20* and adding three Vokey wedges (52, 56, 60) is going to be the best purchases I have made for my game. Far too often I found myself with a distance gap between my PW and my old 54*, the three iron was collecting dust and I hit my old hybrid almost as far as my 3 wood. After a couple rounds with my new setup things have been going pretty well.

Now if I could just get the ol' putter to cooperate, I might be in low 80's country!

Gamers:
Driver: Titleist 907D2 9.5* (Aldila VS Proto 65s)
3 Woood: Ping G5, 15* (Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue 75s)

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.

      7 Wood

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.

      My Favorite Putts

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁
