My logic for going to a stiff shaft as opposed to a regular shaft is that the shaft on the Launcher SL is much lighter than my current driver.

I currently play a Launcher DST 10.5 with a regular flex stock diamana shaft. I'm looking to go with a Cleveland SL290 with a stiff shaft and 12 degrees. I really like light clubs...

Anyone know? I currently use a 10.5 but I don't swing very hard and can hit about 240-250 on average. I hit my driver pretty low and my thought is that I can add a little more carry and swing a little more aggressively with the added loft. I just don't want to lose distance because I need all I can get. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

They are not cheaper. KZG Evolution with Dynamic Gold shafts are $123 per club. I think most Titleist irons run $112.50 per club.....I didn't expect them to be "cheap" but I expected them to be reasonable- around $80-90 per club....

Sent in a quote for some KZG Evolution irons the other day....YIKES!!! They are as much as Scratch irons.......I thought they'd be more along the lines of Wishon prices....

You can do it, especially getting back into the game, you could really hone your iron game without the frustration of having to learn how to hit a driver. That being said, a new set of nice irons would probably run about $700 bucks. If you took all that money you could get some really nice used clubs in mint condition if you really look.....Driver all the way down to putter....this is what I got this winter: Cleveland Launcher DST driver in really good condition: $70 Callaway mint condition Big Bertha 04 5 wood(already had the matching 3 wood): $35 Ping I3+ irons, also in nearly unplayed condition with the exception of the sand wedge, 3 iron-Lob wedge: $325 Ping Redwood Anser putter, demo- $120 Total: $550

Pick a club from the set that you don't use as much and send it to them......it's the only way to be sure and feel confident...

My best golf was played in the years 2005-2007 when I was thinking about working every shot, including pitches and chips. Not a lot, just a little draw action when I wanted some roll out, and a little cut action when I wanted some stopping power. My stock shot was a little push draw and I was able to hit a nice cut when I wanted. I didn't get to play much in 2008 and since then I have been unable to replicate that push draw. For the most part I hit the ball straight with a ever so slight cut or draw, but I'm not even close to being as consistent with my distances as I was back then. I'm about a 10 handicap right now but my putting has improved exponentially. When I was at my ball-striking peak I would literally NEVER make a putt outside of 2 feet and still kept my handicap around 8. I SOOOO wish I could take my putting skill now and combine it with my BS skill from the past...

Fake.....100%.......if go to any of the websites that clearly sell fake clubs and ask them about their authenticity, they will all give you the same "OEM just not from Taylor Made" garbage...

Titleist 14 way stand bag and the Sun Mountain four5 are literally the exact same bag, correct?

I would send them back and tell them you want a set that IS in Callaway's system...

Once you go PING, you never go back.....

I'd say an average of once a week for the past 6 or 7 years?

You shouldn't....theres a reason manufacturers typically adjust irons and wedges for lie, but not woods....it isn't necessary....

Buy first...ask questions later!

If they are really in mint contition I look at it like this: Irons: Can reasonably expect 175-200 Driver: At least 100 Wood: 50-75 So your looking at around 375-400 as a solid price....

Bobby Jenks is bad....

I cannot stand her. I don't pay attention to womens golf at all, so I don't know if shes "well liked" or not. I don't find her attractive though and she just bothers me. She pushed my buttons a while back when she played in a PGA event when she hadn't even had success on the LPGA(much less won an event). That said, to this day she hasn't done much winning on the LPGA tour for how good she was supposed to be...

Michelle Wie....really? Everything about her disgusts me...

Will do, thanks buddy! Noone said anything about escalating violence, he got hit with a golf ball.....yet he went "too far" by throwing the guys ball....

I feel sorry for all of you people who say he went too far......your a bunch of pansies....

Yes

5-10 minutes of stretching and 5-10 minutes of putting(4-8 footers). If I could afford a membership at a course that included unlimited range use I would hit a few balls, but I can't, so I don't.

I had one of these today.....push fades, shanks, losing distance, you name it.......9 iron was the only thing I could hit with any resemblance of purity. It used to bother me to the point where I would go buy another bucket to pound. I don't worry about it anymore, I know what I am capable of doing with a golf ball....I shrug it off and head over to the putting green. I've noticed some of my best rounds come the day after some of my WORST range sessions....explain that to me!..

The best part of the infomercial is the lpga teaching pro who "always had trouble with getting lag in the swing". I got news for you lady, you don't get to be a teaching pro without lag....
