  1. 107 at Prairie Isle in Crystal Lake a few weeks back 126 at Timber Pointe in Poplar Grove last week
  2. I couldn't agree more, I've been getting a lot of range time in. By far the AW, PW and 7,8,9 have been fantastic for me my shots are carrying way more loft and much better accuracy. I'm 4-6 are giving me trouble can't seem to get them off the ground. I'm also having issues with my driver. I'm usually at the range once a week and hit maybe 200 balls. I've also been playing at least 9 holes a week as well.
  3. So I went over to golf galaxy and tried out all the listed irons and a few others. At this point in my game I didn't notice a huge difference in either of the clubs, and the employee helping me said that's not uncommon for the type of clubs and price point I was, so I then started thinking with my wallet and purchased a set of TaylorMade RBZ Pro steel shafts. Original price was $499 for the clubs on sale for $349 with 25% off clearance items, ended up being $260, so I bought the wife a few new shirts that were on sale to make my $300 rewards and got an extra $10 off. So for $250 I'm excited as hell, he taped them up for me and I swing on them and was hitting all the right marks so no adjustment was necessary at this time. Hopefully I'll be going out this afternoon to shoot 9. Thanks everyone for the feedback EDIT: The guy working there also guaranteed my game would improve, so I have that going for me lol
  4. I've been playing for about 5-6 years now. I'm a low 50 for 9 golfer and a low 100 for 18, my bag is currently a Maxfli Black Max set I purchased from Dicks in 2011. Graphite shafts 5-pw to hybrids I rarely use and 3-5 wood. I don't think I've ever used the 5 wood. I swapped the putter for a Top Flite 1.0 blade putter (I honestly just preferred the style to the Maxfli mallet putter) I play 9 at least once a week and 18 once or twice a month. My goal is to shoot in the 90s by the end of summer. The last few times out with my brother in law he's let me use his Taylormade Rocketballz Recovery 3 which hit beautifully off the fairway and I was crushing the ball a hair over 200 yards and the accuracy was worlds better then my fairway woods and hybrid clubs. I ended up finding a good condition used one at a local pro shop and added it to my bag and ditched my other hybrids and 5 wood. Now finally to the point, I've been looking at other products by Taylormade because of that club and I regularly purchase Rocketballz balls to play with and I thought about whether or not I would benefit from upgrading my irons to a TaylorMade set. I was looking at the local golf galaxy at the Rocketballz HL, The Rocketbladz HP, The RBZ Pro as well as the Cobra Baffler Xl's. Which quickly overwhelmed me as to what HL, HP Pro Irons and all the other annotations that determine what the clubs are. Basically I'm hoping to start a discussion as to what would be best for my game. Do I keep plugging away with my current set up until I achieve my goal or something breaks, would I benefit from some newer more name brand sticks. Thanks for reading and for everyone's input
  5. Shot a 50 for 9 at my local course the other day. Hopeing to beat that on tue.
  6. I've been playing about 5 years no still without lessons (probably could use some lol) however my last round of 18 was a 110 at St Germain in St. Germain,WI I also shot a quick 9 at a local course and shot a 48. I'm really hoping to break that 100 barrier this summer
  7. This thread feels so redundent but I had to post anyway. *sticks 2cents in* I see the view point of the op however it's time to go okay Vick now you had your fun, you paid your debt it's time to act like a big boy now. and as long as he doesn't over grow his bridges again I see no harm or foul by NIKE. and yes I will continue to by my NIKE shoe's, no one can sew stitches like those lil kids over in indonesia :-)
  8. Wow, I've been doing a lot of reading in this thread, I have a long way to go. I played my last game maybe a week ago, weather was sunny low 80's with a soft breeze and I shot a 112 granted this is my first year. I have a consistenst slice to the left that I need to work out of my game, plus I'm learning that my swing is kinda slow, I think I may need to break down and start paying for some lessions :-)
  9. My name is Joe, I've been playin for about...a year now. I use Walter Hagen T3 clubs and my average is about a 110 for a par 75 course looking forward to getting to meet people and learning what I can
