  1. Does this same rule apply to the 21 year old blonde in the end stall, that had a hard time squeezing into her "Golf Shirt".
  2. So can i bend my 50 to a 52 then?
  3. After much debate, I found a smoking deal on a set of Cobra SZ Irons, #4 to Gap wedge. My question now is, what Lofts of wedges should i stuff in the bag, as the Gap wedge is 49 Deg according to the Cobra website. I have a nickent Arc 50 deg. and was thinking of bending it to 52, and getting maybe a 56 and 60 (as i really like this wedge, and would like to get another 2) Are these gaps too much, and will bending the 50 F up the way the club swings at all? Peace.
  4. OK- I tried out these, the Nike ignites, and the King Cobra SZ's. The Cobras felt the best, but the set was over priced (compared to what they are online)- Is it worth buying the set with a gap wedge. or would i be better off just filling out the set with some- say Nickent arc wedges? Also if anyone has a set of these around they want to get rid of, I will gladly take them off your hands :)
  5. I seen these after a little bit of research. They felt ok on the simulator, but was wondering if anyone had experience with them on the course? http://www.golftown.com/gtcommerce/s...P13980C23.aspx I am a little leary of the uniflex shafts, although I do not have alot of experience with them. $400 Can for a 9 club set seemed pretty decent though.
  6. I was getting a "fitting" by a local club fitter, and I hit the MC560's pretty decent. He only had me try Wishon heads however, and when i asked about some OEM brands he got a little irrate. As much as I did like them, IF i hate them 2 months down the road, I am out $500 bucks as I see a few posts with people trying hard to sell them for $200. (There were 2 options - a new set with steel shafts for $700 Can, or a used set for the same amount with Aerotech Steelfibre i85's. )
  7. Sorry- too used to fishing talk- I guess i meant troll as in the fishing sense? Wandering aimlessly through the ocean with rods in the water... Thanks for all the input guys- The hunt still continues- more because I am cheap I guess, and after getting stung by my old irons, am a tad nervous too.
  8. Hmmm.. Has anyone here hit the Mizuno MX-950's? There is a set in town for $350 bucks... Seems a tad cheap, but used clubs here tend to go for less.
  9. As true as this may be, for some reason just using the forged irons gave me more confidence... I am looking into the MX-200's, and will swing some tommorrow. They are selling for about $400 used with shipping. Is this reasonable?
  10. Yeah- I was quoted around $650 for a set of the Wishons, which seemed like an awful lot of money for clubs that would be worth 1/3 that the second I walked out the door. I can spend $600, but I would like to spend less of course- Anyone know of a good place in Canada to scour for used clubs online? I am afraid of getting dinged at the border by customs...
  11. I know the differrence between the 2 processes... I tried the Wishon Cast club and the 560mc, and I just was more comfortable with the forged club- (This was before he told me which was which, so it wasn't a mental thing)- It also had a thinner top line, which gave me a bit of confidence. I am using a set of Mactec NVG2 Mids now, and they are all over the place as far as lofts go- no where near the specs on the web site, and because they are Cast, i can do nothing but grin and bear it for now. I am always amazed by the quickness of responses on this website- as i was typing this, I had 2 more replies. :) I have no issues paying 600 bucks for a set of irons, so long as I will be able to use them, and have them grow with my game. Plus just saying "Forged" sounds kind of bad ass...
  12. Hey All... I troll the forums here alot, and buy stuff semi regularly. I went for a pro fitting recently, and was suggested to get a set of Wishon 560mc's. The problem is the cost was out of my price range, for a set of clubs that have no resale value in the case I am not happy with them one season in. My length and Lie are standard, my swing speed is about 85 MPH with my driver... What are some comparable clubs to this, OR does anyone know where these can be found reasonably affordable. I am pretty handy, and would probably have no issues with shaft changes if needed (I have built electric guitars, done motor swaps on cars, and have a few other semi geeky hobbies that require percision and patience). I was thinking of a used set of Mizuno's, as they seem to be the rage on here... I want a forged club, but need the forgivenses of a cavity back. (I shoot about 100 when I am striking how i should)- The Irons i use now are all over the place for angles, and the club fitter was amazed I was even shooting that with there variations- Components clubs are also an option if I can buy the parts- I wouldn't mind taking a stab at club building too. Thanks in advance. D
  13. Coloured Golf Balls Another item only ever likely to boost the confidence of opponents We always keep a sleeve of pinks on us, and if you don't make it past the ladies tee on a drive (Yeah, were a super bunch) you have to use the pink ball until you get a birdie, or someone else does the same.
  14. Does anyone have experience with either of these? I get there products at cost I found out (along with footjoy and cobra products). I need some wedges and hybrids to round out my rookie bag. Any suggestions? My wedges now are : PW is 44 deg. SW is 56 deg. What lofts do you recomend to fill the gaps reasonably well?
  15. I was just looking at a set on here from a member... Creepy. I bought the 2 wedges for 50 bucks new... I should of known better!
