Thanks. It's been warm enough here but we got rained out yesterday.

Looking good, as always loving the 685os, 600xc's......and the mixed nature of the bag, oem's, components, and clones. You have got your $ worth out of them Turner's!

Yeah the Turners just seem to work. I have been reluctant to pull the Harrison Impulse shafts out of them. I bought a new Impulse I can try in one of the other heads. Maybe the SMT I have not shafted yet.

I had to wade through two bags of shit to get to a decent one of yours.

Haha. I'm sure they're all bags of shit depending on who you ask.

MidwayJ I have been reluctant to pull the Harrison Impulse shafts out of them.

Excellent choice, sir. Once you pull the shaft the poon escapes. That is a fact well proven on FGI.

There's a golf blues song called "messin with the poon" and the chorus essentially says don't do it😉

That has to have been written by Dyno. Fo sho. 😜

The poon has actually stayed with the shafts. Previously I had them in a pair of Hireko hybrids, and that combo was good, too. But I know I'd be pressing my luck to try it again. 🙂

I have a couple of Turner hybrids, too; newer ones than those. They are really great clubs. A steal at the price.

They all look sweet. No bags of shit, there. Report back on the maiden PING voyage.😉

The Ping debut did not go well. I had some trouble controlling them. I no doubt would have played poorly no matter what clubs were in the bag, but I definitely hit the driver and hybrids better than the irons today. It seemed like my misses were exaggerated. Lots of shots where the clubface was way open or closed at impact. Some huge pull hooks. I think part of it was not yet re-gripping them with midsize grips, which helps me not be to handsy. There may also be an issue with either the overall weight or swing weight being a little heavy. The bottom line, though, is LOFT (lack of f-ing talent)!

On the plus side, I really didn't notice a distance loss versus my Snake Eyes 685OS on solid hits, and the SEs lofts are a little stronger. Ball flight seemed a little higher. We were playing in high winds today, so it was difficult to judge, though.

Those new Ping irons have been the recent focus but I have to say Adams drivers are great. They made several good ones before everything went adjustable. I had a Redline Tour, 9015d, F11, 9032LS, and 9064LS. All have been good, and no bother with .350 hosels!

It was a shame to see Adams go away. ☹

LBlack14 inevitable after TMag picked.them up....would be nice.to see some of the hybrid tech spill over into the hybrid line....one place where TMag could use some help.

OK, I think I have my bag set for the start of the season. Santa was really nice to me last year so I picked up a set of G400's, red dot, 5 thru UW on stock graphite in R, 'cept for the 5 and 6 which are soft regular. SW is a G20 from my previous set.

The G30 driver will return from last season but may yield to a G400 if the prices come down enough. K15 remains in the 3W spot for its 3rd season.

New to the line up is a KZG Cobalt 7W of unknown loft. I'm hoping it will fill in nicely between the Cobra Biocell 4H and G10 5W, that finished out the season in that spot last year.

The crusty veteran in the lineup is the Ping Craz-e putter, orange dot, which is back for its 4th year and firmly, firmly in the bag.

Bankshot Nice looking setup!

MidwayJ

Those irons look a lot more modern than mine. 🙂
