So you haven’t tried the brands yet happy to make judgments about them ?
Chavs clubs ? What the heck does that mean

No I guessed and stereotyped with my bigoted mind based on other life reflections.
But looking back I’m not alone in my thinking, so maybe there is something in my post!

You know the clubs who hang around carparks with big exhausts, no? Or mayb Burberry stripes

As the OP asked for our perceptions of the brands, I’m very happy to make judgement.
Chav clubs = tacky.

Err yeah since that's the whole point of the topic. It's your perceptions of each brand. Whether you've hit them is not relevant to what was asked.

Did the OP ask for perceptions of golfers who play the brands?

It asked “how do you arrange each brand� how else must you differentiate it to make the thread interesting to read and have a point. By post #5 that was the theme the thread was leading to.
“They’re all the same bar the lofts colour schemes and prices†wouldn’t make for an interesting thread.
The best way to arrange the brands and how you rate them would be to compare them to who you thinks buys them.

at my club fitting next week, I’m going to hit a TM iron, a callaway iron & a Ping iron. So I’ll either be a pensioner or a chav depending on my choice, despite what the numbers, feel or my buying decisions lead me to buy. What an odd opinion on a odd thread.
What is even odder is that someone would buy a club based on some pre conceived idea & not the fitting facts.
Currently I’ve got titleist woods, mizuno irons, a TM putter & Cleveland wedges, what does that make me according to your logic??

A pensioner chav sounds good to me. That’s someone I’d have a beer with in the clubhouse!

Nice selection apart from your putter. Especially if it’s a ghastly looking spider. Don’t think I’ve seen a nice TM putter.
It doesn’t make you anything. Bar the receiving end of someone’s opinion. And someone’s opinion is worth diddly squat unless you care what people think!

One thing that really makes me chuckle on here. If you ask for help with a real game improvement club, you immediately get told to have lessons. If you buy a ghastly looking spider or others (surely a game improvement putter) the “better†players say nothing 😂😂😂

I think it is fair to say that I don't really think about brands like that is being posted about.
If I like the look of a certain club I just go on that alone and then think yeah I would like to try them out and can I hit them consistently, brand does not come into it or really think about brands.
Probably explains why I have a mixed bag from old adams, TM, callaway, Envroll, vokey, Srixon bag, wear Dunlop clothes and play any whiteish ball. Played with cobra historically and maybe shortly with pxg irons if I can hit them when they arrive and someone help me after reading some of the above replies, as I bought them are just great looking clubs and for no other reasons.

I don't see this as being any different to a host of things. Take cars as a prime example. Everyone will have a view on a functional car (Ford, Vauxhall etc) and compare them perhaps to a Ping. Not pretty but get a job done. And so you could go on with the analogy but a lot of people also have their own preferences to cars and wouldn't dream of trying certain makes but would always gravitate to set makes and models
If I change golf clubs again, I'm definitely looking at a fitting because I want to try graphite shaft options to see if they will add anything as I get older and help with dispersion and length. As I've said before, I'd go to Ping first as that is what I'm use to and like using, but if they can't help I'm more than open to other brands and ideas. Golf is hard enough and I'm thinking it's about finding clubs to make it as easy as possible (given clubs can't hide a host of swing faults)

I haven’t a clue what my 3 playing partners had in their bag yesterday. I do know one of my occasional partners had AP3’s but only because I have the same. Guess it isn’t something that bothers me.

No it’s not a spider. It’s not a permanent fixture either. It’s just an odd base to make an assumption on...what clubs people play?
I’d much rather judge people on whether or not they; use iron covers, use a black glove, tuck a towel in their trousers, use a chipper, are a grown up with an 18+ handicap. They all belong in the special place in hell along with those brexiteer fellas
