Is it possible bend a DRAW driver back to a neutral position?

Theirs no need to spend over $100 on a wedge when you can get a wedge that performs just as good or better. Check out KZG and Snake Eyes. I demoed both along with Vokey's, Clevelands and Nike's. I ended up going with the KZG's since I felt they had the most feel and provided the most feedback. The wedge is all about feel.

That is low, however it was probably marked with the wrong price. If you can get them for that price I suggest you buy their entire stock and resell them.

Need Help on my Iron downgrade :(
jrwingate6 replied to eddie33081's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
I would have went with the MX-25's. Their look is more classy and they are cheaper since their not a brand new club. I think their profile is better looking too but hey, your the one hitting them. I just don't know if you ever had the chance to see or swing the MX-25's since everyone was telling you to get the MX-200's. -

You wont catch me rubbing that shit across the face of my wedges. -
wedge shafts - are you using something other than stock?
jrwingate6 replied to Jon K's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
I use Dynamic Gold S400's tipped to 8 iron spec and butt trimmed to wedge length. -
Unless you have a problem getting the ball up in the air, don't get spinners.

Looking for a good set of wedges
jrwingate6 replied to tazrestling27's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
I have owned almost every wedge out their. Never spend anywhere near 100$ for a wedge. The name brand wedges are ripoff's. I have owned 3 sets of KZG wedges and I will never play another wedge. The feel and spin is insane and they don't use those non-sense spin milled grooves that eat balls up left and right. You can get 3 wedges from them depending on which ones you want and what shafts you want for about 190$. Here are 2 of their 6 wedges: -

I thought the MP-60 was a little more workable but a little less forgiving than the MP-52. -

I think you would benefit from a iron with a slight cavity with nice feel and workability. My suggestions for you would be the fallowing. Callaway X22's- More forgiving than workable with little feel. (Cast) $700 Cleveland CG Red- Moderately workable, decent forgiveness, little feel. (Cast) $500 Mizuno MX-25- More Forgiving than workable with good feel. (Forged) $500 Mizuno MP-52- Slightly workable while being decently forgiving with great feel. (Forged) $900 Nike VR Splitback's- Very workable, surprisingly good forgiveness with great feel. (Forged) I went with these after hitting all these Irons I listed. In my opinion their feel and workability was unmatched. $900 Titleist AP2's- Very Workable, decent forgiveness and good feel. (Forged) $1000 Again, this is based on personal opinion. I am only giving you some options to consider. -

jrwingate6 replied to jrwingate6's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
Yea I have been looking forever. I am deciding between the Tattoo Golf cover or a custom AME cover (all black with white stitching). I am also debating a second option. Changing my driver cover to a AME custom and having both all black with white lettering reading on the driver cover "Drive for Show" and on the putter cover " Putt for Dough". If I do this then I will have a brand new Tattoo golf head cover for sale 5$ cheaper than their website. -

Yea, I was thinking about getting it. I already have there Driver cover. Do you think having both covers will be too much? -
Good, fairly inexpensive ball?
jrwingate6 replied to jrode's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
The HX Hot's are not balls I would play with on a normal basis. A little too hard for my liking but if you like them that's all that matters. Right? What I want to say about them is they are the farthest ball out there. I have hit them all. I am a very long hitter and my average drive is slightly over 300 yards. "Yea yea I know it's 19 yards above the PGA average. You don't have to believe me". But when I play in best ball tournaments I use the HX Hot to drive with and my drives are 320-330. These balls are very very very long. -
The most the scratch will probably hurt is your mental game. You may not be as bad as me but if I know there is a scratch on my club face then the club needs to be replaced. If I were to play with a scratch on my club face, that scratch would be in my head during my entire swing and I would be wandering if it was going to effect the ball flight.

Yea, I think so. I haven't seen the Exceptions on the shelves in a while. -

jrwingate6 replied to jrode's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
Pinnacle Exceptions are very very good balls for 15$ a dozen. Some reports out their even say that the Pinnacle Exceptions are Titleist NXT's. I did my own test on both balls and found them to perform identical. -
If you want forgiveness without sacrificing workability then the Nike VR Splitbacks or the Mizuno MP-52's are very good options. I chose the Nike's because they were more workable.

Which ball spins the most?

How in the hell does the ProV 1x spin more than the ProV 1. -

Actually Mizuno's Corporate office WAS located in Japan prior to 2007 and their clubs were made in Japan prior to 1997. Mizuno established a production base for their golf clubs in Shanghai, China in 1997. In 2007 Mizuno relocated their headquarters to Shanghai, China. -

I'm looking for something along the lines of the classic boot shape like the Scotty covers or something like this.
