If given the choice would you either... 1. Get a newer type clone club made Or 2. Re-shaft/re-grip/bend an older (1997) set of Adams Tight Lies irons? Buying newer name brand irons and fitting them is out of my budget... I can find the length used, but not the clubface lie corrections. Will say... Golfsmith bend a set of irons?

Pricing out the re-grip, re-shaft, change lie at golfsmith for my old set of clubs is more expensive than getting a setup from gigagolf... keep in mind i'm on a $300 budget...

I would look somewhere for a used set of Ping eye2s or another quality used set of irons. They're about the same price as new clones, and in my eyes, a much better option.

But they won't fit unless a tall guy is selling them... hence my dilema. So using a standard used set would only complicate my game, as my posture hitting standard clubs is terrible. In golf being average height, average arm length, is a huge bonus when purchasing clubs...

For what it's worth, I'm still using the same set of GigaGolf irons that I started golfing with.  They have been good clubs.  I'm 6'4" and my clubs are +1/2" and 2* up.

Driver:  Callaway Diablo Octane iMix 11.5*
Fairway: Cobra Baffler Rail F 3W & 7W
Irons:  Wilson Ci
Wedges:  Acer XB (52* & 56*)
Putter:  Cleveland Classic #10 with Winn Jumbo Pistol Grip

      Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
