PapaD gives out Holy Grail awards like others give out participation awards
Club review thread

It appears that Holy Grail / Unicorn club status is as fleeting as swing epiphanies. Everything in golf is temporary for everyone.
But it is fun when you find something that works no matter the duration.
Sneakylong 'They' all work! And for the most part, all work the same.
It's just a matter of using them/having them/buying them. Nothing more, nothing less.
When you go out with the same clubs 10 times, and shoot the same score 10 times, that is boring as hell to me...and Steve. Even if it's 10 different courses.
I used to change clubs, just not as often as you and Steve. Golf clubs are like cars. They all get you from point A to point B. Funny, but I buy new cars and and keep them a long time. Wish I had applied that to buying clubs.
Would've saved a lot of money. lol

It's amazing that only one fucking person in here gets this.
Sneakylong I buy used cars/trucks, and keep them forever.
Leaves more $$ for clubs.
So anyway, the ACER XV Professional iron heads got a 9-hole outing today. They're typical good component heads. Nice Callaway clone. Perform like any other but don't feel as good as their multi- material high tech Callaway models.
The K15 driver is STILL a VERY good unit.

I bought several sets of those irons when GolfEtail had them dirt cheap. Played 1 round and was surprised. I then sent all the sets off for the kids at my home town course.
I have the Acer Tour Blades now and they are as good as any OEM. (you can thank me later )

Going out and shooting -8 with the same clubs 10 times in a row wouldn’t be too boring would it!. If I shot 110 10 times in a row with the same clubs… that wouldn’t be boring… that’s be grounds for quitting.
I wonder if there's a 12 step program for ho's?
Maybe that's what the $12 shipping really means!

Again, I think what happens with clubs when you play well is similar to when you find a swing key that seems to work.
I’ve seen it all too many times. You find a key and say ‘I’ve got it’, only to find out you had it for a limited period of time.
The same can happen with clubs. You’ll find a club and have a few good rounds and the over exuberance is natural. But then the honeymoon ends and the reality of everything golf gets realized once again.
It’s just some keep going back and trying to relive the honeymoon. And sometimes they do. But forget it’s still just a honeymoon and just like before won’t last. Lol
Monogamy is never really part of the plan for serial club ho’s. Despite the at times flowery talk.
