Ping Eye2+.

Excellent feeling clubs that were available very cheap second hand. For an "old" club, they just feel so balanced and are quite forgiving.
In my bag

- Firepower Hyper Ti 15*
- Launcher 18* Hybrid - 21* Hybrid - S2 Max 5i - SW - MP T-Series 47* - 60* LW - White Hot XG #1

The callaway fusions, I love them, Ive had them for about two years and when i hit them good they fly of the face. The only downside to the fusions is that it is very hard to bump and run because of how hot the ball comes off the face of the club

Driver- 9.5 905R
Woods- V-Steel 15*
Hybrid- Rescue Dual 16*
Irons- 3-P Project X 5.5 Wedges- Vokey 54* and 58* Putter- Scotty Ball- Bridgestone B330-S


Cobra FP easy to hit and resaonable price

Driver: Cobra HS9 X 9.0 YS Stiff
Hybrid: Cobra baffler DWS 16* NV Stiff
Hybrid: Cobra baffler DWS 20* NV Stiff
Irons: King Cobra FP 4-LW
Putter: Cobra Optica SL-01 Ball: Bridgestone B330


Love my Cobra S9's - easy to hit, forgiving, and get airborne like crazy (sometimes too much in the wind). I'd like to try the Taylor Burners when they come out, though I doubt I'll be switching anytime in the near future.

I purchased some used Adams A2 hybrid irons. Man they look like they played them four times. Have not played them since it has been raining here in houston. I just started playing was told to start wioth these. Any tips please throw them my way.

Does anyone know about MP-57? Looks like MP-60 but with much bigger face and more cavity. I have MP-60 and I love the way they feel.

I love my Callaway X-18's, love the feel, look, and performance

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Apex Hybrid
755 - Project X flighted - 4-PW
Vokey 200 Series - 52 Vokey SM - 56,60 Rossa Mezza Monza


I have been playing the same irons since 1983. They are the original Tommy Armour 845s Silver Scot. Currently I am only carrying the 3-PW in my bag along with a couple Vokey wedges. However, I still own the 845s 2 iron, Sand Wedge and lob wedge. Recently, I have played two rounds with Callaway X-20 Tour irons and I like them quite a bit. I was fitted for them and will probably buy them as this season is winding down. The pro shop at my brothers club usually gives discounts as the winter approaches in Pittsburgh.

Just got a set of Ping I5's. Was looking to upgrade from my tour edge bazookas, and the 10 series didn't seem to fit what I was looking for, the I 5 is a perfect mix between the 2 10 series.

Driver: G10 10.5 v2 shaft
3 wood: g10
Irons: I5's green dot
Putter: G5 anser
Wedges: CG12, 52*, 56*Ball: : E6+


Eye 2s for me. I've been playing them for over 10 years now. I just regripped them two weeks ago. I really don't see me changing anytime soon. They do what I need 'em to.

I use a combination of Mizuno Mp32 and MP37 irons. I will soon be using the MP67 8,9, and PW.

Driver: Taylor Made  Rocketballz Stage 2
3 wood: Rocketballz Stage 2
4 wood: Rocketballz Stage 2
Hybrids: Cleveland 20 and 23.5 degree
Irons: Mizuno MP57 5-7, Mizuno MP62 8-9 Wedges: Mizuno MP62 Pitching Wedge, 49 degree,  Titleist Vokey SM4  55.13 (bent from 56.14) Sand Wedge, Titleist Vokey SM4 60.10 Lob wedge


WHATS IN MY BAD:
Nike SasQuatch Sumo2 13* with Aldila vs proto byyou graphite powered by zyvex (65-r)
Dunlop Alta 3 fairway wood
Copperidge 5 fairway wood
Copperidge 21* and 24* Hybrid (Given to me from father-in-laws set but I like them and hit the well)
Nike Ignite 3 Hybrid (part of the set)
Nike Ignite Irons 4 thru PW true temper steel shaft uniflex
Warrior Custom Golf 52* SW, 54* GW and 60* LW
Tour 2005 Putter

I know too many clubs but I am still trying to figure out which clubs to keep and which ones to put in a the trunk of the car. I just got the Nike Ignite Irons so I am trying to figure out what clubs to put away... Probably the 3 wood (I never hit it) and maybe the Copperidge 21* hybrid.

For better workability, I would recommend the TP version. That would go for other Taylor made models as well.

I play old DCI 962 2i-PW. Amazing feel but not too unforgiving, low offset (I fight a hook rather than a slice), rather thin top lines and fairly traditional lofts (19°-48°) make these clubs fit my eye perfectly. They're starting to get a bit worn, that's all.

In my bag:
Driver: Titleist 909D2 11.5°, UST Proforce V2 85X
Wood: Titleist 909F2 15.5°, UST Proforce V2 Tour 95X
Hybrid: Nickent 3DX DC Ironwood 20°, UST Proforce V2 Tour 105X
Irons: Titleist AP2 4-GW, TTDG X100, 1° weak (except the 4i), 1° flat 

Wedges: Titleist Vokey SM56.14, SM60.07, TTDG X100, 1° flat
