Currently gaming mp5 irons and sm6 48/8, 56/10 and 60/10 wedges. Several questions: is it me or does it seem folks are playing more bounce these days? Should I get one 12 bounce and one 8 bounce for my 56 and 60? prefer non matching pitching wedges, anyone have feedback for mizuno, Taylormade or Cleveland wedges?

I'm pretty long off the tee so i like to carry 4 wedges. i have my pw thru 60… 47, 52, 56 and 60. my thought process from 8 iron thru my 60 is that they are my approach clubs and I'm trying to keep my swing down to 3/4 maybe a little more but definitely not a full shot unless I'm trying to manipulate the flight of the ball. i can hit my pw 150 maybe more but i never like to swing that hard and its difficult to control the distance. only playing for a little over 2 years, I'm still learning and my main focus is distance control. my number for my pw is 135 max and thats pushing my comfort zone. rarely use my 60 unless I'm around 60-70 yards, mostly using it around the greens or if i need that ball to stop or bring it back a bit. i try not to get too cute with my shots and aim right at the pin with a swing i know that i can control. its pretty neat seeing how everyone thinks it thru and designs their bags to fit their game. thanks everyone for their input and i hope mine can help somebody as well

play the ball back in your stance.. and farther back than you think you should. if youre right handed play it off ur right big toe. choke down on the club a bit this way you dont hit it fat and make your same swing. Im not entirely sure how much yardage if any you will get out of it i have never seen ur swing but it will flight the ball and make you more accurate regardless of how far you are hitting ur short irons. the way I see it is my 9-60 are scoring clubs and I shorten my swing on every club in that range. I can hit my pw 160 yards if i wanted to but will never go more than 135. simply because thats where i am most comfortable swinging that club to give myrself more control of my swing

my 5 wood is my favorite club to hit so theres my 2 cents

you could get them tip stiff or have them hard stepped as well

i prefer the dynamic gold shafts but the kbs are nice too, very smooth on both of those. never tried the others

i highly recommend adams pro a12.. they are a players iron with a little bit of help. come with stock kbs tour 90 shaft and golf pride multicompound grips. the finish wears rather quickly but thats what happens with the dark finishes, however, they feel like butter off the face. if your consistently in the low-mid 80's, these could work very well for you and the shaft will probably be about perfect. they're not cavity back irons but theyre not blades either, still have a lot of workability. with the shaft and and small help on the bottom of the iron, its a high launch and easy distance control.

it doesn't matter to at all just saying thats a little ridiculous that someone owns almost everything you can see in golfsmith. Even if I had the money whats the point? One set of clubs doesn't play the same as another so why have 20 bags and 30 sets of driver, woods, irons, wedges to switch out? Just saying theres zero consistency in that and I can guarantee 95% of pros have never used anything close to that many sets of clubs.

Recently my dad gave me his old 1 iron and I need to get the shaft replaced. Does anyone know if these are taper tip or parallel??

i dont understand how thats being a businessman when he's never gonna get rid of 90% of that crap and doesn't use over half of it. u call it a businessman, i call it saving my money.

i didn't vote for any of them.. I feel that when I visualize a shot and it flies with the same trajectory with a draw/fade/straight flight that I pictured in my head, I get full satisfaction. It doesn't happen as often as I'd like it to but that's what I truly love. Watching the guys on tv they make it look so easy and you know multiple multiple multiple times a round that they hit exactly what they visualized and it's almost like deja vu when I do it.

that looks like a complete waste of money..

sounds like you don't care enough... dump the girl

Driver $280 3 wood $30 ($230 originally rest was gift cards) Hybrid $190 Irons $365 after trade in of older irons which was one hell of a deal Wedges $260 Putter was a birthday present.. priced at $120 Sooooo how much I spent - $1,125 If I had bought everything at retail - $3,005 I'd say I did very well!

Ya I didn't believe till I actually watched my ball go that far.. I am a pretty long hitter but even that seemed insane. Too bad Burnett couldn't pitch like he is this year with the yanks.

So I'm 6'4 and cannot stand short shorts... I'm looking for golf shorts and reason being, they're much lighter than your average khaki short and come in a variety of colors or patterns but can't seem to find anything that is long enough. I'd like them at the very least to hang over the middle of my knee cap while standing straight up. Any other tall guys out there found anything I can try? What inseam length should I be looking for?

It has a big face and is basically a smaller, shorter driver. I had one but had a stiff shaft and had already dented the face of one but it's as good as advertised. The youtube video of Dustin Johnson hitting one 330.. I didn't believe it till I myself replicated it.

How good is your ball striking? That will have a lot to do with what clubs you will be able to play on the course. To me it sounds like your looking towards the Titleist 712 CB's, Taylormade Tour Preferred CB or MC, Mizuno MP 53 or JPX 800 Pro, Cobra Amp Forged, Nike Pro Combo... There are plenty of clubs but we really need more information than just distances to give you a good idea of what you are looking for. Go to your local golf shop and hit some clubs and let us know how they feel to you. Also with that swing speed look for clubs that give you a good shaft option.

I hit my driver on almost all holes where the fairway is wide open and I won't carry it over the turn. I hit my driver 'too' far for most holes where the control isn't good enough to manage. That usually leaves me hitting my hybrid but 3 wood will see about 3 tee shots a round. I hit all my clubs pretty far so my driver, 3 wood, and 3 hybrid are mostly used off the tee. I don't think i have had a hole long enough where I even need my hybrid from the fairway.

thanks guys

What is the difference in mid-size +1/16" and .600? They don't carry over-size and I love these grips. How many wraps can I get put on underneath so it fits my hands and it doesn't ruin the grips?

Show up like an hour early. Basically I just goof around and work my way from wedges to 3 iron. With my swing speed I refuse to hit my wood or driver with those POS one piece range balls. It's like throwing money out the window. Last 10-15 mins I'll get serious with chipping and putting.
