Sorry you’re correct with 1.25. Yeah that’s a good idea too about getting them tweaked if need be.

I currently have Wilson Staff D9 forged irons which I enjoy but like many of us, I’ve been checking out the Takomo irons and I’m thinking about switching but obviously there’s no custom fitting centres etc. I'm trying to work out what my spec would be and hoping some of you wonderful people could help. Going by the Wilson site, the standard shaft length of the 7i is 37.25 and the lie angle is 62. The Takomo 7i is 37 and the lie is 62.5. When I was fitted for the Wilson’s, I was told I’m +1 and 1 degree upright. Am i correct in saying I just need to work out the difference in the figures eg in the Takomo I’d be 1.75 longer and 0.5 upright or would it not matter with only being .25 difference in standard length and .5 in lie?

The 5 wood is something I’m thinking about actually

Just went back to a titleist players 4 stand bag for the first time in years. I previously had a full 14 divider cart bag which kept the shafts separate and didn’t tangle etc. Is there a chance that the steel iron shafts will scratch up more in the stand bag being against each other when walking on the course and is this completely normal/to be expected for a stand bag? Noticed my putter shaft has a couple of new scratches and I want to keep my clubs as good condition as possible. The putter was kept in the top along with driver, 3w and hybrid but was a bit of a tight fit
-
I’m hitting my 3w about 240 and the 22 degree around 215-220. The 19 is so hit and miss that sometimes I’ll hit it 225 and then other times 200.
-
I’m currently playing off 6 and my bag goes from driver, 3w, 19 degree and 22 degree hybrids then 5i down. Is there any point in having the 19 degree in the bag? I’ve always found it a love or hate club and not sure whether to keep it in there.

I’m going to do a trade in to get some money off the new driver

Currently looking to upgrade my cobra speedzone driver which currently has the HZRDUS smoke yellow stiff shaft in it with 60g, 3.5 torque and low spin spec. I’ve found a good deal on both the cobra ltdx and Aerojet models but I’m unsure which of the following shafts are similar…. Mitsubishi kai’li blue HZRDUS smoke im10 Tensai av raw white Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.
-
Thanks, I can’t feel anything when I run my nail over it etc so assuming I’d feel if it was flaking off.
-
Just noticed on the back of my 9i, there’s some strange markings. Can’t feel anything if I run my finger over it. Any idea what can cause this? Wasn’t sure if it’s just cosmetic bag chatter?
-
I wouldn’t bother sending it back but I’d just like peace of mind that the clubs ok and it’s just a factory scuff etc.
-
Yeah they’re lovely irons! I’m assuming that marks just been a blemish and it’s nothing to worry about or peeling like you say.
-
That’s what I’m hoping to do. Just wondered if there’s any reason or explanation what it could be?
-
Got my new irons (Wilson d9 forged) and had the first round yesterday with them. Noticed after there’s a weird light coloured mark on the corner of my pw face. Anyone know what this could be and if it’s just cosmetic? It doesn’t seem to want to wipe off. Wasn’t sure if it’s just a mark from the factory bending the lie angle etc?

Custom Fitting = Confused

That makes a bit more sense. Sorry if this is a dumb question but what’s the difference between lengthening a club and a standard length? -

So do you mean it’s going to be 1 flat with it being a longer shaft so the 1 up will make it bang on? -
I’m an 8 handicap at the moment and recently got fitted for the Wilson staff d9 forged irons. Im 6ft 4” and the fitter had me in an inch longer than standard and also 1 degree upright in the lie angle. I’m confused with this as I thought if the club is longer it would need to be flatter as a result? Any thoughts are welcome.

I’ve got a 2021 phantom x 5 Cameron which has picked up a couple of scratches on the head this year which can only be seen under a certain light. Obviously I’d like to keep it as mint as possible so I’m thinking about using a club refurbisher I’ve found online who seem legit. Can’t decide whether to get it back to the original finish or go for a blackout finish. This putter was a birthday present so I’m never going to get rid of it but at the same time I don’t want to do anything to lower the value. What’s everyone’s thoughts?
-
I’m looking at new hybrid to replace my cobra sz. The cobra is in stiff and is a ust recoil esx 480 f4 shaft. This isn’t available on the replacement I’m looking at but I’ve been advised that the Tensai AV Raw Blue 75 or the Project X Riptide 80g would be a similar shaft. Is this correct and which one would be best? I’m playing off 10 and my current hybrid goes around 210ish.
-
Ah ok, I think they’re a UK company.
-
Has anyone tried the Druids Waterproof bags? I’m tempted with the price but not sure if they’re cheap quality etc.
-
I’ve checked the other irons and it’s got it on 3 or 4 other clubs. I’m assuming it’s because they’re rotating in the bag and moving around. I’ll just put it down to wear and tear if it won’t affect anything.
-
Thanks, any idea what can cause this? There’s a few bits like this going up the shaft with maybe 3 marks like this. It’s the same on maybe 3 other clubs.
-
I wipe my clubs down after every round and I’ve noticed today that I’ve got some what appears to be scratches or rub marks on a few or my iron shafts. I’ve been carrying in a ping hoofer bag. Does this appear to just be rub marks and wear and tear from taking the clubs in/out or is there something sinister? I don’t want to weaken the shafts but surely a stand bag can’t cause that much damage?
-
Yeah, it’s keeping the momentum so as soon as my head goes to the ball the swing starts like a sequence of events.
