  1. There are two fitting systems that i know of. the Ping fitting Way and the Callaway fitting way. The ping way solely just measures on height from finger tip to floor and mainly only adjust loft and lie ping would rathe bend a club 4* then lengthen it, i believe a gold color is 4* upright... the callaway fitting way is impact tape and swinging, with callaway only really wanting to bend a club 2* at the most. i believe that if you shorten or lengthen a club a 1/2" it actually equals to a degree of lie... you should try and get fitted by a club fitter... and yes you should definitely have ping bend the clubs.
  2. i wonder how much the blades will run!!! Probably very exspensive just because of the TW stamp...
  3. Wow 4" over... wow that is alot to put on a club. How high do you hit the ball... but hey whatever works works right.
  4. Wow those actually look pretty good... wish it came with all the true blades all the way 3-pw.
  5. im surprised no one has posted about the 2007 TM Burner 3w... i think this is a really easy 3w to hit because of how the face is not as wide as some 3w's making the sweet spot very easy to hit because it covers the width of the face (as in Up an Down)... i love this club!
  6. The alidila is a great shaft but it has a mid kickpoint on it... the op wants a low kick high trajectory shaft... and the proto is way too expensive at $180 at a local pro shop... but it is an amazing shaft nontheless..
  7. the only thing that would change if you would have a better consitent swing would be the loft/lie angle... lengthening and shortening will not change as you progress with a better swing...
  8. A staff bag is really really big, so you have alot of big pockets but is really big. a cart bag has little pockets but still big enough for everything you need for the course. a staff bag i think is just way to big to be hauling around. i would stick with a cart bag.
  9. Do you by chance know all the speed, distance, back spin, and higher launch angle that you were hitting with that club? and yes you will be able to hit a graphite shaft alittle faster seeing they are alittle lighter and alittle more flex in it. The most important specs are your spins and launch angle. i believe you want your backspin for a 6 iron to be around 3500 and sidespin under 600. launch angle for a 6 iron is around 21* to 22*. and no graphite is not always for old people.
  10. It could be loft/lie angle.. correct me if im wrong but the hogan apex's are natorious for the lie angle being messed up by just hitting them for a couple of seasons. i believe the material is a softer alloy or something which is why they feel like butter... i would go down to a local shop and ask them to see if the lie and loft angles are what they are supposed to be for that model.
  11. A grafalloy blue prolaunch shaft is a good low kick high launch shaft.
  12. Almost every golf store either has a simulator or a swing analyzer. Golf galaxy is a great place seeing they should always have a qualified staff member on hand to help you out. As far as the x-18 irons, they are alittle heavy of a club, try the x-20's they are probably the best set callaway has made in my opinion. Make sure you go on the swing analyzer, they are more acurate than the simulators, reason being is the sensors are alot more closer to the hitting area then a simulator. but the simulators are fun though.
  13. Low kick shaft would actually give the ball more trajectory. you will probably want a mid to high kick shaft to keep a lower ball flight. but yes you will want a stiff shaft. at a 95 mph swing speed i would have went with a stiff shaft. i thought the line between of a stiff and regular flex is around 91 but i could be wrong. cleveland got smart and acutally put two differnt shafts in the model the yellow one being a low kick and the red being a mid to high kick. but correct me if im wrong but i think the alidila NVS is a mid to high kick shaft.
  14. yes they are very good at what they do... they should have a pga pro and a golf tech. which both would be more than willing to help giving you tips and fitting you for clubs. and seeing golf galaxy is owned by dick's spoting goods they will have good prices. For example, we have a dick's sporting goods in nevada and they usually have about a 10% difference in prices to stand alone golf stores... just my input though
  15. haha... yeah i think TM is reasonable.. with the R7 Draw and R7 irons at 399-499 but those callaway FTI-Brids for 1499 that is way overpriced... if i wanted a club like that i would go with either the hibore set or nike oss...
