Just sold my Acer XV HT iron heads... after I took them apart, then put the Cobra FlyZ shafts into
the set of Alpha Response heads I've been saving for just the right set of shafts! Didn't have to
cut the shafts for length or put on grips. Instant set of irons.....!

If you need/like offset and medium-wide soles the Alpha Response irons are some of the best IMO. And they are 304 Soft Stainless Steel.

toraider What the heck are those? I know they look like TMade, but surely not.

Par4QC TM Sim Max (V1) 5W, 7W and 5HB, 6HB, 7HB.

Never had anything below a 5HB...should be interesting.

A table for my Harbor Freight table saw. Used my Channellock (a local family owned comnpany) folding saw horses. The saw horses accept 2x4 lumber, hence you can build a platform of many sizes. Had an old desktop in my never ending stash of stuff that I screwed to the 2x4s. You can the lift the whole thing out and fold up the saw horses. Very sturdy.

meagain I like the idea of those sawhorses! I've got a couple tables in my garage that I have to put legs on/take off, just to make room. A couple of those things would do just great, esp. since you can make an 8' table top with 2x4s & a sheet of plywood. A lot easier to setup/take down. 👍
Heading now to Amazon.....

Par4QC Yes. You can make about any size platform you want. All of the Channellock tools are made in the USA, but the sawhorses are not, but very good quality. The owners are great people and even play in my golf league when they could be playing at their nice County Club course.

7HB is my friend. Dear friend!

toraider So, spent some coin, did we?

I also got the SIM Max driver. You need it also. Wait til you hit that thing!! 😱

Par4QC

Have it, but have not hit it yet!

Holy shit, you and Lee will be out driving me now.
I may have to update to something newer than 15 years old.
😮

Par4QC

toraider You might have to dial that down if it's 12, like I think it says. migawd, these things launch a ball! I even tried a level swing, instead of a positive AoA, with my 9. Impressive. (now Steve will demo one, 😆)

toraider

Spuzz You'll have to go SMT V2, V2.5 or V3.

Alternatively, I'll just play the SMT455DBs or GC TK1 when I play with you. I'll bring my old school clubs like the Alpha RX Pros too. That should make you comfortable....LOL.

P.S. Also have an Ping G410 Plus to try to play long and lay flat (lie)....

Spuzz

toraider That should make you comfortable.

Nah, you guys need all the help you can get.
I tell everyone my biggest handicap is the people I golf with.
😉

toraider

Spuzz I feel the same way...😉

I wonder what might be like with Modern Equipment. Then I think you'll just be the same old Spuzz! 🤣

Spuzz

toraider I think you'll just be the same old Spuzz!

It's hard to improve on that
LOL

toraider

Par4QC level swing, instead of a positive AoA

I cannot execute any of those situations. I'm roughly a -2* AoA guy. So I'll probably hit the 12 like you hit a 9. LOL. 😉

KCee

One of the guys I regularly play with has been using one of these Trident (Callaway clone) drivers forever. Outdrives all of us by a mile. His swing makes Ernie Els look spastic....I hate him so much.

"Today" or the past week? 🧐

Built up these Wishon EQ1-NX 5 and 6 hybrids to match my Wishon 770 CFE home-brewed single length 7-AW clubs.

Let's see:
Day 1 - Epoxy up sole weight ports, allow to cure
Day 2 - Add hosel weight port and epoxy shaft, allow to cure
Day 3 - Cut to length
Day 4 - Install grips

Didn't say I was a fast builder, now did I?🤣

Finished gripping up a Cleveland XL 270 draw driver head mated to a TM Aldila RIP Phenom shaft with a Dual Durometer Lite grip to 45" (with these changes the club is 285.8 grams not 270).
