Dropped 4 and 5 iron and replaced with 4h and 5h.

Putting the 60 on the bench makes the most sense and gives flexibility in mid to upper bag setup.

Too may variables to say why you hit it low and slice. Shaft too stiff, offset, size of grip, etc. Most complain offset causes a hook not a slice. Keep trying different hybrids.

I picked up a 52 degree RTX4 gently used today for an excellent price. I will take the 49, 52, 56 and 60 wedges out to figure out distances on full shots and go from there.

New iron set is Ping G700 with last wedge at 49 degrees. Current wedges are Cleveland RTX4 56 and 60 degrees. Thinking 49, 54, 60 would be better. Get an RTX4 in 54? CBX2 in 54? Something else l8ke a Ping Glide 3.0 in 54?

I just picked up a pair of Puma Ignite NxT Disc shoes. Bought them a half size smaller as they run long.

I have a my Callaway Epic Flash fwys set to 17 and 20 degrees. Works out well for me.

I tweaked my lower back a few weeks ago hitting golf balls. It spasms on occasion. Not constant pain. I can do a variety of exercises no problem and then twist and get a spasm. No pain shooting down the leg or upward. I'm taking ibuprofen and committed to doing stretching and core exercises. Will see how that works.

Wow, that is crazy. I realize the CC guys are club fitters not instructors. But, the likelihood of a 73 yr old fitting into a stiff shaft seems highly unlikely.

I have an interview set up with Cody, the Director of Golf at Old American Golf Club. I live in The Tribute, so it would be quite convenient.

My driver fitting at CC ended up being a search for the ultimate fit with cost not being a factor. But, when I heard the cost, I was shocked. Full retail for a Callaway Epic Flash head and an expensive Accra shaft. Total was around $900. I asked what shafts are offered at Callaway that have similar specs as the Accra shaft. I then bought one from another source and not through CC. The iron fitting was somewhat similar but keeping in mind what shafts are offered by the mfg at an upcharge. In the end, the Ping G700 with a Recoil 65 shaft had the best fit and we ordered the set custom through Ping. No CC assembly required.

I bought through CC but we placed an order through Ping for the specs we came up with. Ping is assembling the clubs.

Significant improvements over my gamers. Ball speed, carry distance, total distance, etc. The differences were big enough to suggest a change. If the results were close to my gamer, then no reason to change.

Happy New Year! The Tribute Golf Club is ending it's existing Player's Club membership now that Old American and The Tribute are run by the same management company. They are now offering two different levels of membership (full and limited) to both clubs and a more expensive Player's Club membership. Not sure what I am going to do for 2020. Both courses are super convenient and practice facilities are pretty darn good.

Agree. Will play as is for now.
