  2. I'll buy it for $80 if you still have it?
  3. I hate to be that guy... but you have to give the Titleist Spin-Milled Vokeys a try. Just a suggestion.
  4. The standard Studio silver head cover runs about $25 dollars on ebay. If you are looking for an authentic scotty cameron aftermarket head cover you need to be prepared to pay for the branding.
  5. Drivers: TaylorMade Superfast 2.0 or Titleist 910 D2 Scratch Golfer I use my driver quite a bit, I like to be big off the tee. The Burner 2.0 was 299.99 in its day, and the titleist was 399.99 I switch between drivers depending on the distance of the course. If the course is fairly long and straight I play the TaylorMade if it is shorter or has a lot of twists and turns I feel like I have a slight bit more control with the Titleist. I love these choices and they are great fits for me. Reply Quote Multi 0 Reply Quote Multi 0
  6. Man, I mean its not all about looks. If you can admit to yourself that you hit the AP1s better then go for the AP1s dont kid yourself with looks. As well for me it would be hard to compare a Titleist iron to anything else, but thats just me.
  7. I do not remember my first eagle, unfortunately it was a few years back and I do not remember it. I do, although, have a story of the eagle that is the most special to me. To start out the story, it needs to be known that my father who was formerly an avid golfer had a stroke which paralyzed him on the right side of his body. He had golfed with me as I grew up but never got to see me play at the level I am lucky enough to play at now. My father was invited by one of his friends to come ride a cart while he played a golf course that neither of them had ever seen before, and he accepted the invitation just to watch of course. So I was home at the time and my father asked me to join him so he could see me play again. After we met with all of my fathers friends we finally headed to the first tee, a 540 yard par five with a slight dogleg to the right. I had never been that nervous to play a round of golf in my life, just because I had so much talk behind me from my friends that I really wanted to impress my father. I was the last to tee off, my dad and his friends watched intently and I was feeling the pressure bearing down on me. I took my swing, and I had hit a dead straight 325 yard drive just past the dog leg. It felt so good to wow my father with a drive like that. The last 200 yards of the hole was a fairly large hill, and I couldn't really see the flag or the green at all. I decided to go by the numbers, club up for the hill, and hit a five iron. I hit a solid shot, I knew it was on the green, but I really had no idea how close or far from the hole it was. When we finally had reached the top of the hill I saw my ball a surprising 8 feet away from the hole, I never would have thought with all the pressure I would be having a makable putt for eagle come across my path. The rest of the story obviously tells itself, I made the putt and had never seen such a smile on my father's face. I will never forget that moment for the rest of my life.
  8. Quote: These things have a pretty chunky clubhead and as a result are more forgiving then jesus christ himself. I thought that this was hilarious, just saying. About the clubs, I mean all of us here on SandTrap are going to have opinions on what we are going to hit, if you really are looking for probably the most forgiving set for someone who knows next to nothing about golf... go with the Pings but otherwise I feel like just go with your gut feeling and buy the one that you hit the best, don't buy it because it costs the most.
  9. Nice Light Blue or White J. Lindeberg Belt White Adidas Clima Cool Shorts White FootJoy Icon Shoes Titleist Tour Style Visor (Shirt Color Can Vary - Definitely Adidas Shirts Though)
  10. Well, as anyone would say, it's not the club.. it's the player. Therefore the player should probably choose the club he/she feels the most comfortable hitting. Wether for you its a Titleist MB or a Mizuno MP thats all you. Basically you, my friend, are looking at the two top of the line sets of muscle backs, they are around the same cost. Personally, I play Titleist CB Irons, I absolutely adore them... the thing is though, before I purchased clubs I went to the local golf shop and hit everything I could, and honestly I didn't look at the brands, I just happened to hit the Titleist the best. Its about what works for YOU, not everyone else. Good luck with your choice, I'm sure you'll make a good one.
  11. It would be much more helpful if you had the link to the used putter, or had atleast a price or specific model. To be honest it might be more worth your while if you must have a scotty, to just buy a new one. Scotty cameron customization isn't cheap and a used putter is only going to need more done to it to make it look new.
  12. My thoughts exactly, at a 4 or 5 handicap I hope your not asking for help on how to hit an iron. How about we get that number checked out.
  13. Have you ever heard of loudmouth golf? If your in the game to stand out you might like those. Otherwise, in my opinion Polo Ralph Lauren makes some nice quality brightly colored pants. Loudmouth definitely will make you stand out though. http://www.loudmouth.com
  14. Anytime someone makes a change to their iron set, the distances follow right behind with that change. I have Titleist 710 CBS and when I switched from my previous set of Clevelands, I was absolutely shocked how much my distances on each iron had changed. After becoming used to the old set it isn't an easy task to change in a matter of a round. My Solution, Go to your local driving range, I would never go light up the links with a new set of irons without taking a look at my tendencies with each. I say hit 10-15 good shots with each and see how your distances are with each, heck if you really have to write these distances down on a piece of paper. Put that paper into your bag and next time your faced with a shot, determine your yardage and match it with the paper. Its a very juvenile strategy, but you will learn to fluctuate your swing and learn to hit distances after you determine how far you hit each club. Once you learn the distances, please stop referring to the paper, just for your followers' sakes.
  15. In my opinion old woods aren't even comparable to new ones. Much easier to hit now-a-days, go try some out, you will probably be surprised.
