I beg your pardon. You mean that thing (inverted ceramic driver) in my spare room you hit and then hollar..."in the hole". I agree.

I played them for many years before upgrading to the Callaway XR irons. I still have friends who use the G15 irons. I agree the look takes a little getting use to but they are a good club for those needing ease of launch.

Hey Wally Fairway . . . I think I need to change my vote. The VAS irons are the clear choice.

Holy hell, those things are ugly!

When I first saw the pic, I vomited in my mouth.

The VAS 792 were my first set of irons as an adult.

They were all game improvement all the time. In fact, Roger Cleveland had to take out some GI features before they went to market.

Maybe the worst looking club, but clearly they performed. The Pro Version (I think there was a pro version) were used to win a US Open.

The Nike Sumo/SQ2 Drivers after the original SQ were the worst sounding driver ever -- scared people, could hear that driver a few holes away, and it was a loud, hollow trash can sound. It made everyone look.

One of the worst clubs, or Edsels ever, was the Callaway C4 driver -- the first composite driver -- did not perform.

Ping G400 Max 9/TPT Shaft, TEE EX10 Beta 4, 5 wd, PXG 22 HY, Mizuno JPX919F 5-GW, TItleist SM7 Raw 55-09, 59-11, Bettinardi BB39

Better watch your mouth, I have both the Sumo2 and Sumo2 5900 drivers, and the 5900 3-wood.


I hate all of them.

Absolutely. I had a buddy that played these. So glad I'm left handed and never was tempted to try them. Just awful.

How many balls can you hit with this ugly iron before screws start coming loose?

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
