Eguller azgreg My last 4 rounds I had in the bag: Driver Heavenwood 5h or 6h 7i 9i GW LW (58) Putter Easy walk, convenient and probably enough clubs for a non-competitive Winter walk.
Typhoon Eguller Jeez Dan, how are we going to get ANY type of review on the new irons when you only use 2 or 3😂
Eguller Typhoon Jeez Dan, how are we going to get ANY type of review on the new irons when you only use 2 or 3😂 Patience grasshopper. I'm into near Winter golf. I've only hit the 7,9,PW and they are very good. I'll offer up some observations while I'm playing more during my February in Myrtle. For now, I don't find any negatives to report. How's dat ? 😉
Gatorman sdandrea1 What is your setup with these 8 irons, and do you play up tees? I am 74 now so I play 5300 yards
sdandrea1 Gatorman What is your setup with these 8 irons, and do you play up tees? I am 74 now so I play 5300 yards 5300 to 5600 (max) tees. Typically driver, 6h, 8i, 9i, W, GW, SW, putter. If I play 9 clubs, I'll add a FW metal (5w or 7w).
Tinker Joined a club a month ago that gives me the rest of this year and next year. I play now with my son in law and his 30 something buddies. The course is not super tough but we play the regular tees at 6400 yards. I can’t seem to keep it down to 14 clubs. 200 to 225 yard drives still leave me a good poke to get home in regulation. I carry a 3 wood, 5 wood, hybrid and 3,4 iron and sometimes use them all. I still beat these guys but it’s a lot of work.
Eguller Hickorygolf59 (12D, 3W, 5W, 6I, 8I,50,Putter) Shoot low to mid 80's. I'm just curious - why not a 7w instead of the 5w ? Most hit the 7w close to the 5w in my experience. And, is the 50* your sand club for the most part ? Thanks.
Hickorygolf59 The 5W I play is a Louisville Golf persimmon and that club just sets up so well for me. I love playing it mainly on par fives. Confidence for 160-170 yd's with that club. Yes, the 50* is played out of traps or monkey grass, or lofting up hills close to green.
Eguller Still rockin' the Minimalist bag & probably will if I get to play any more this Winter. Very convenient. But, I do miss my 20+ club bag. 😉
Eguller sdandrea1 I was semi kidding on the 20+, but 13 would probably be my optimum bag - push come to shove.
sdandrea1 Shot 82 today and had a triple bogey and at least 4 chunks with short irons. Driver, Perfect Club, 7i, 9i, AW, SW, 2Ball.
sdandrea1 Hickorygolf59 Nice arsenal of clubs! Today's 7 was PING G15 Driver MoonWood 25 degree TourEdge Bazooka 7h PING ISI 8i PING Eye 2+ W PING Eye 2 BeCu SW 2Ball
sdandrea1 DonM Do the chunks make you blame yourself or the club fit? Myself......always. I know better.
KCee Eguller Real minimalist golf here - 22* and winds at 15-25 mph Less clubs, but more layers! Now I feel like I can't complain that it's about + 25 here.....I mean I'll still complain, but not to you.
DonM sdandrea1 I disagree, only because you are a good enough golfer that you aren't going to start chunking for no good reason. Different clubs cause different swing reactions.

Don, the list of shit I do for no good reason is too long to show you. 😂 I attribute my poor play to physical and mental (focus) issues. I'm an adapter. I usually figure a way to score well with whatever is in my bag. When the chunks and thins start, it's always either in my head, body or both. I have never been a consistent ball striker off the turf and I'm still learning to deal with loss of flexibility in my neck and back. I'll sort it out. Been here before. When my swing is on, I can hit nearly any club decently.
