DonM Here are pics, plus a shot of my golf man cave.

A clean workshop is the sign of a sick mind. 😉

sdandrea1 have you considered a 'fire sale' ? You might be able to get rid of some of that stuff...

I built a PTM 7 iron and a DTG 431 50* wedge. Took them to the range this morning and hit them both.

The PTM is great head and the feel is fantastic. I couldn’t believe how forgiving and straight the flight I was getting with this head. I shafted with a paderson IMRT 110

once I get my PTM black heads in I’m gonna put my Aerotech shaft in it and compare the two clubs.

The DTG 431 50* is higher spinning head. The head shape is more of a medium in size. I wouldn’t say it’s compact and I wouldn’t say it’s oversized.

colej I think the PTM has gotten lost in the excitement about the TS heads. It looks like a great design.

colej Tell me more about the PTM?

I like my TS-2/TS-1 combo's-- but always looking for something better..

Gonna spend half the afternoon getting a piece of glue out of the shaft. I’ve never had this happen ...HOF curse, and I refuse to take off the grip I just put on.

Got it out, not that bad. Guess I’ll swing my Superspeed clubs and them stare at the walls the rest of the day.

Nice looking! I tried the XV pro last fall, but wound up buying the XV HT, which is much friendlier for my
70+ year old swing. Hope you like them.....

Put a new top on my old workbench after moving it to the new place. Did I mention that moving sucks?

colej

sdandrea1

yep and I will know the feeling at the end of this year! I hope!

DonM

sdandrea1 I sketched and made the materials list for building my bench. We got a 20 percent off coupon at Home Depot so I’m trying to get it right, haha. Want to get the thing built before my Vertex components arrive from California.

DonM

for me I feel like it’s almost a better version of the TE. I know a lot of people love the TE but I never really cared for that design.

DonM

colej Yes, exactly, a more versatile TE. I'm sure it's the update.

TE flight was too high for me or rather they spin too much and the sole was too sharp/dig some for sure. OTM had a way better sole design, as do the ts1 and 2.

colej

ode

exactly right. Then PTM has a leading edge that is beveled which will help with the digging.

ode

colej and a bit more bounce.....ts1 and 2 has a rounded sole which works well enough!

Rebuilding a set of XR Pro irons. Found them used with Recoil 110 Stiff shafts for cheap. Took them apart, weighed everything, spined & FLO'd shafts, and MOI matching them. They are a hair shorter than I'd like, but should be ok. I got some inexpensive Champkey grips that are knockoffs of the GPP MCC Plus and they seem pretty decent. Could be a nice backup set for not much money.
