Back up irons are Wishon 550C's.

Neatly stuffed into a Ping G5 Extreme Carry Bag I only carry 13 clubs as I rarely carry my 3 wood. I will add a 58* 12* bounce SW next summer. The course I work at and will do most of my golfing at has very soft sand so I need so more bounce on my SW.

My clubs are clean, always clean. You have to keep the grooves clean in order to hit quality golf shots. Plus I manage the Back Shop/ Club Storage at the course I work at. So I set the standards with my clubs, and all members clubs meet the same standards.

My Driver headcover, SAN JOSE SHARKS! I know Joe Thornton personally and I was PUMPED when he got traded to my favorite NHL Team

nice gear!

Thanks. I am pretty sure I will change drivers next summer. However I want to get on the Vector to check the spin rate before I buy. Of course, this will be done outdoors. I will also replace the Vokey SM for a 58* wedge with higher bounce due to soft sand at the course.
I am also looking at another set of forged irons, so there could be a change there too.

I wish I had enough money to buy good clubs. I had to bring back my TM Draw because it was too low of loft

The nice thing about the locally owned golf retail store is this. Lots of quality used clubs. My G2 irons came from there, $500, like new. My Fontana, $50.
You need to spend less on that Honda and more on some good clubs

I am looking at the new Srixon wedges, man those things have an aggressive face mill job on them!

Ping does not make a forged club. The irons I might buy are made by PowerBilt. That company used to be big in golf, not so much now. But they are sweet looking irons. 3-6 are CB's the rest are muscle back blades. Priced at $259 Cnd but I will get them for less than that. A nice set of forged irons for a great price.

I bought two wedges today. The new Srixon WG-706's, 52 and 56 degrees, both with 8 degrees bounce. Looking forward to hitting some balls with them but that won't be anytime soon unless I head down south.
