The shafts may not be suitable.

Yeah, that's what my pro said, got lucky and he happened to text me while I was at the store, said shafts were too stiff. Just wanted to feel what the heads were like.

Got a better idea of what I'm looking for, less GI, less bighead, more cavity/muscle back but not blade, thinner top-line, how the head is designed, w/regards to aesthetics, doesn't matter as much.

Life is short. Got MP-53s, 4-PW, will get fitting info from instructor and bring to Pete's to get fitted. Hopefully get some time in with them with in the remaining summer. I really never liked the big heads of the Titleist AP2s.

Will see how it goes with regard to driver.

Just read this whole thread. For a guy who hates shopping, you sure are doing a lot of shopping! But you know I think you've made a great decision and I think your way of going about it is also very instructive. The MP 53's are beautiful and  should suit you well for a long time. Best, -Marv

DRIVER: Cleveland 588 Altitude ( Matrix Radix Sv Graphite, A) IRONS: Mizuno JPX-800 HD Irons & 3,4,5 JPX Fli-Hi (Grafalloy Prolaunch Blue Graphite, R); WEDGES: (Carried as needed) Artisan Golf 46, 50, 53, 56 low bounce, 56 high bounce; PUTTER: Mizuno TP Mills 9

My intention was to do a lot more, demo a lot more clubs, at least dozen different sets, but I said screw it. I went to the same store to demo clubs twice, it's more research online into what's out there in terms of heads, shafts, and setup, I'll just learn along the way I guess.

    • Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things? TIGER WOODS' AMATEUR VICTORIES YEAR WIN(S) 1984 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1985 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1988 Boy's 11-12 Junior World Golf Championships   1989 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships   1990 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships, Insurance Youth Golf Classic   1991 U.S. Junior Amateur, Boys 15–17 Junior World Golf Championships, Orange Bowl International Junior Look at some other AJGA Players of the Year. How many of these names do you recognize? A few, for sure. I assure y'all, I'm not trying to pee in your Cheerios. I just don't get what the point is. Okay. I get that, then. Thanks.
    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs. 
    • Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
    • Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.
