its all about downforce on the ball. i have 3-4 year old wedges (upgrading soon) and i can still bring it back a little bit. plus, back spin isnt exactly the best thing for your game. i'd rather have a drop and stop action than a back spin action.

those two brand will never ever be preferred over titleist. never.

vokey no contest. the spin milled wedges spin way too much for me, and they dont have a gap wedge which is my favorite club in the bag. so i stick with the 200 series oil can. i strip them of the finish and make them raw, so so soft.

i dont know i hit my 905T longer than i did my 983K

the legends at orange lake is a great course i think and i could get you onto grand cypress perhaps (if interested) guy that graduated from my school (california pa) is assistant pro there.

hmm i might head down. i have to go to myron cope's funeral, pap (joe denardo) was good friends with him, he was a good family friend. so, it all depends.

yea, but those are still like 150 or so, and alot of them are beat up, so I'd have to get them restored, which is like another 350 if I got it done at scotty cameron. i see them goin used on ebay for like 550 or so. it's almost worth it.

hell I might go out, is it at the ExpoMart?

I am aware that he made those putters, however they seem like more of a collectors item to me. How much did you spend on yours if you don't mind me asking? I'm contemplating buying a used on perhaps. Sent from my Verizon wireless BlackBerry

they kinda remind me of the DCI oversized irons.

i really want a new putter, and i was thinking about gettin the studio select. however, he released the teryllium ten to tour players for the PGA Championship last year, and the feedback was great. What do you think the chances are of this putter coming out? I was going to get a Teryllium 2 and send it to the Scotty's shop to get restored, but I may hold out for this putter.

i wear saddle shoes, its really just the way i was brought up in the golf world. golf is a gentleman's game, and proper ettiquite and attire is required. if i'm dressed up in a golf shirt and a nice pair of either golf shorts or slacks, you need a shoe to complete the look. i right now have foot joy gel fusions, but am looking for a new pair very soon.

its a disgrace to this forum that the ACC is an overwhelming favorite. duke and unc, thats it folks. top to bottom is pac 10, close second is big east

i just got my 695 blades and love the 3 iron. i had cavity backs before, and hated my 3 iron. i dont understand!!1!

cant deny the beauty of a blade. going by head alone, i like the 695 blades, chrome with that Z cut that just gives a distinctive look. on another note tho, i think the grip makes the club.

definatley have some great courses like Latrobe CC (Arnie Palmers home course) Oakmont (multiple Opens and #5 course in the world), and Laurel Valley ('05 Senior PGA), and some hidden gems such as Sewickley Heights (IMO the hardest shooting course in w. pa when it's at its best) as well as others, (trying not to be partial to Montour Heights ) but i must say... HILTON HEAD! great golf, relatively cheap greens fees for the quality courses you play, and they have the signature Harbour Town golf links!

i've had my trusty pair of gel fusion 1s for a while, and i need a new pair. I went on footjoy's website, and theyre not there anymore! wtf! those were the most comfortable pair of shoes i've ever worn. Any suggestions for other shoes? I need a shoe that looks like an actual golf shoe, not a tennis shoe. And preferrably foot joy. thanks.

hey everyone, i'm only 19 years old, but have plenty of golf experience. I live in Pittsburgh, and have had the privelige to play Oakmont CC (2007 US Open) and Laurel Valley CC (2005 Senior US Open), as well as Arnie Palmer's signature course (Latrobe CC) i was introduced to golf at the age of two, and have been playing since. i've played on multiple Junior tours such as the Junior PGA, AJGA, and other local tours. I was most active from 13-15 years old. I stopped all tours and wanted to enjoy my high school, both for hockey, golf, and the social aspects of HS. I played on my Varsity HS team all four years, and was the captain senior year. I qualified for the district tournament 3 years and the PIAA state tournament for two of them. I am a golf instructor over the summers in Boston, MA. I go up there for six weeks, and teach 10-12 year olds golf. I love every second of it (especially when i get to go to Fenway and then NYC for a week.) I love talking golf, and since I went to college (now my 2nd semester) no one is particularly good at golf up here, and I miss talking it so much. I lost a bit of my touch in golf, but I am getting back into the swing of things. So, I figured I'd join the boards. hello to all.

my pap is a famous local meteorologist and i was named after him? lol i get shit for it all the time. welcome to the boards.

i practice the theory of the 40% (left reg) 60% (right leg) when you adress the ball. In my back swing, I may transfer 5% of my weight (if that) to my back leg, and then shift it forward at the top of my backswing. remember start the downswing from the ground up (weight, hips, shoulders)

lets see i had an odyssey rossie, then i switched to a STX greeny. I wised up after that and got a scotty cameron studio stainless and have had it for about 4 years.

agree with this statement to an extent. if your hackin at a 20 handicap or so, blades are pretty much meaningless to you, you are only hurting yourself. However, I noticed in HS i was a 8 handicap, and now over 6-7 months, I have lowered it 2 strokes because I switched to blades. Blades are great to take you to the next level, if you are ready for it. if not, then your not not having fun. And unless your in competitive golf, that is what it is all about.

thats the truth.

can you say $0 for ProV1x's? well i used to at least. i'd get 2 dozen of em every year in HS. my school bought the balls for my team. now, $40 bucks or so

i'm a titleist guy, although your build sounds alot like my dads, and he really likes his callaway x14's (hes just your one weekend a month golfer). maybe check those out used, and he hits them pretty good for only being a every now and then golfer (shoots mid to low 80s)
