Anybody have any experience with adjustable clubs – I’m looking at the “Walking Sticks“ – 3 adjustable clubs to replace everything 3 thru wedge. I know they’re not regulation, and I don’t expect them to be anywhere like my RocketBladez , but can you play even remotely satisfying golf with them? I got a 1-club “adjustable” about 40 years ago, but it’s no good at all – never was. But even at 73, I still want to at least walk around hitting a ball even when it's cold, but less than a full bag, which I can carry, would be nice - providing it's not too frustrating. The "Walking Sticks" might do the trick, but they're too expensive to buy 'em, try 'em, put 'em in the attic forever.

Thanx

Neat idea but the head design doesn't look very forgiving.  I understand the concept but instead of spending $500 on walking sticks I'd try throwing a 3 hybrid, 5i, 7i, 9i, SW along with a putter into my Sunday bag and choke down on the longer clubs to make up for the gaps first.

Thanks, Joe,

I've been doing something like you: usually 4W, 5i, 9i (RocketBladez have strong lofts), 49 deg PW, putter, and it's not bad. If other answers don't rave, I won't be too unhappy sticking to this. But, though "forgiving", like the RB's, is better for me, it's not that important, since I'd been playing pretty well with Miura blades for years.

BTW, but not entirely OT: I sometimes go out with only a 6i. Interesting golf, greatly sharpens my shot-making, and the use of my imagination and inventiveness!

    • Day 5 (6 May 24) - focused on setup and proper alignment (non alignment rods) to mimic visual cues as on course…of course this is backyard so we are talking 50yds max.  
    • Day 53. Played 9. Couldn’t find the bottom of the swing arc. It was bad. 
    • Awesome, thank you very much. I ended up giving them a call and you are right. Got to try out some different clubs, the first suggestion was the Wilson Staff Launch Pad irons I believe, the hybrid irons. Personally I wasn't liking them all too much, however they were much better than the old '74 MacGregor blades I've been playing. Then I tried a couple others, I forget what the one was but the one I ended up liking the best was the Cobra Aerojet irons. Overall feel and performance was the best for me on these, I also preferred the appearance and sound of these. Bit the bullet.

    • Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.
