I really deprivation to wash toward shot in the 80′s and I really deprivation to brand my new club redemption worthwhile and return the access nine for me. Anyone (especially serious linksman) WHO tin Archer me thing, either recommendation in Agricola as to what I should be look for, or any club recommendation (either the 1 I’ve listed or otherwise) would be greatly appreciated.

Getting usance tantrum by a qualified sartor is definitely a commonweal spot to adrenarche. If you decide against an usage accommodation sitting, then my attempt recommendation for you regarding setup would be to TRY before you BUY. Go to most any golf class/store and they should have demonstration club available for you to attempt putout. Get whatever work for you, and gentleman’t Lashkar-e-Taiba your self-importance return in the fashion, i.e. acquiring X-man shaft when you mightiness be punter off in reg. flex. As to what to aspect for, competition tenderization is definitely a commonweal spot to adrenarche looking. If you’re shot in the 90/100s, you’re leaving to privation nine that are forgiving on mishits. My referral for your teeth brand-up would be:460cc busman3 bentwood5 bentwood3 iron loanblend4 iron loan-blend5i-pw (or eventide a 5 iron hybrid and 6-pw)Sand cuneus (54 or 56 grade)PutterYou tin return a 60 level lob cuneus if you neediness, but honestly it’s probably departure to do you solon trauma than good. If you’re leaving to ammo putout the big buck for any club in your container, I’d recommend you do it on your golfer, you usage it for almost one-half the shot during your round.Hit’em heterosexual!

  1. Daniel Duan Said,

    well if you want some brand name ones i can name a few, just depends on how much you want to spend. when youre this good, you have to get them custom fitted.

    for the clubs that you were recommended, rac os2s might be too forgiving, not enough control, r7 draw same thing (go for the r7 tp models), i dont use adams or cobra so cant comment on those, big bertha is a ripoff, their clubs arent good at all. nike slingshot is goofy looking and has too light of a shaft

    a good set for you would most likely be the callaway x16 or x18 or x20 TOUR models, besure to have the tour or else they might be too forgiving and give less control, mizuno makes some nice ones too but cant recall exactly what they were. taylormade r7 TP ones are also great.

    for drivers, taylormade r7 tp, callway FT-5 tours or FT-i tours models

    woods your choice, you can go buy similar stuff to the drivers and have r7 tp woods or ft-5 or ft-i woods.

    fairway woods taylormade makes some great ones. just besure to have the TP at the end, those are made for more advanced players

    everyone knows the best wedges r from cleveland, i own a set of cg10′s and i love them

    putters u probably need the odyssey blacks or the scotty camerons if you can afforrd them

    i dont exactly suggest buying new clubs, u can get the same stuff used for half the price

    best setup would be

    driver
    3 wood
    2 & 5 fairway wood
    4-pw irons
    56 and 60 degree sandwedge and lob wedge
    putter
    and theres your 14 clubs

    get stiff (no regular or extra stuff) shafts for all your clubs, you need them later on, they will take time to get used to but when you do, you have a great advantage for your future game

    shafts
    fujikura speeders for driver is very good
    precision rifle project x flighted 6.0 (the numbers are by stiffness, never get anything above 6.0, theyre for professionals only) for irons
    aldila nv for woods and maybe fairway woods
    and dynamic gold for wedges, could also be used in the irons but i dont particularly like those in irons

    also if you want some draw clubs, might as well buy the adjustable weight woods and drivers, once you correct your slicing or fading, you dont need to buy new clubs

    go to golfsmith or any other golf shop and try the clubs before you buy, thats very important!

  2. duckinhimer Said,

    you can go to a shop with driving range and hit any of them that they carry. usually they’ll have an extra 6iron of all there clubs to hit. do that and see what you hit the bet also when you’re there hitting balls that’s the time to get fitted,with the clubs you hit the best

  3. Mel O Said,

    As a former club salesman, you’re in a great position, club wise because your game is just coming to you. Go to a pro shop and go through the PING fitting system. Their game improving clubs will be great for you. Depending on what you want to spend on said new clubs, they will do wonders for you. The new G10′s are very easy to hit as are the woods. BUT, your comfort is what’s important.

  4. Vegas Matt Said,

    You should seriously consider custom clubs. That will be of equal or greater quality than any club you will find at an equal or lower price. I shoot with a set from KZ Golf and I would not trade them for anything in the world.

    If you’re going to make the investment to improve your game, at least explore all options. Check KZ’s website and see if there is a fitter in your area. It costs you nothing but your time if you don’t like them, and will help you make a better decision.

  5. Eddie D Said,

    I would just go with a good set of Callaway X20′s and not worry about it

  6. grizzo69 Said,

    Go to Goldsmith,here you can hit clubs ,they have a computer that shows you how far you hit ,it you hoke or slice.You can try different clubs.Also they have a pro that can fit you for the right shafts .Also go to a pro at a good golf club
