My Golf History
I started playing in 1991. Six years later at 18 years old I was a scratch golfer. Since moving to Las Vegas for college I have played little and that makes playing now very interesting not knowing if I am going to shoot 74 or 99.
I am not a “club-ho” who changes drivers and putters every two weeks. The last time I bought a putter I was in 1996 when I was in high school. However this year I am going to be changing out most of the set to get inline with the new groove rules and get the most of some of the new technology.
For those who have to know what’s in the bag.
Driver: Cleveland Hi-Bore XL 9.5 degree w/ Red Fujikara shaft (This is the first change. I have changed my swing since I bought it and the closed face is really bugging me. As a temporary solution I am picking up a Callaway FT9 Tour on ebay for $100 to get the game back in shape)
Hybrid: 16 degree Taylor Made (I might put a 3 wood back in the bag and add a 18° or 19° hybrid)
3-PW: KZG Forged Blades (Looking at some of the mixed sets that are coming out notably; the Cobra S3 Pro and the Cleveland CG1 Tour)
SW: Taylor Made XFT 56°
LW: Taylor Made XFT 60°
Putter: Ping Anser 2 with a black finish (that ping can no longer make because it has been banned by the EPA)
Ball: Srixon Z-star XV
