I just got a brand new set of glubs over the past week. I am also new to this forum so this is my way of saying hello to everyone. I have been playing for about 10 years and unfortunately last year my family and I ran into hard times and I had to sell my clubs and hang my golf shoes up for a while. Now that things are back to normal ( i think), my wife let me go and start the process of building a new set. So far I got a great deal on a set of Taylormade burner 2.0 hp irons that hit great. Taylormade white smoke putter, Taylormade Superfast 2.0 9.5 degree driver, and Taylormade superfast 2.0 3 wood. I am currently testing wedges right now. My iron set only goes down to AW 50 degrees. I can only afford one wedge right now and I am leaning towards the Vokeys. I just have no idea on what degree wedge should be my next club. I am leaning towards a 56, or a 58. Good to be hear everyone hope to make a few friends here.

Well my set is now complete. Just spent about 2 hours at the golf shop and tried out tons of wedges while a club fitter monitored me on the launch monitor. He was actually very surprised that the wedges I hit the most consistent and the farthest was the wedges from the Adams Tom Watson set. The club fitter told me there was no reason to buy more expensive vokeys since I hit these the best. I saved alot of money today by not going by impulse and buying three Vokeys. Instead i took the smarter sensible route and came out very happy.

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
