I am buying new clubs!

I tried the 850 pros a week or so ago with KBS tour shafts. Really nice. Need to get a few more pro shop vouchers.





Can't believe you were never tempted by a set of shiny Australian Blades, back in the day. I used to love my Peter Thomson's.

Yep; the Bob Charles blades for me - the first set of new clubs I ever had...

Chris; I'm sure these new clubs will give you much enjoyment
 
Expect you will find them great. Suspect I will end up with some but not this season. Although did have a hit with the XRs the other day just to see.

Chris, I have a recollection of a couple of months a bit back when you seemed to win everything you played in, what was in the bag then?

I bought the X2Hot irons when my game was at its lowest ebb after a disasterous group of lessons. I certainly found them easy to hit and long, but I have a buyer for them and just loved the JPX's when I hit them - I hope I've done right, time will tell
 
I had a fitting for exactly the same irons yesterday. My swing speed with a 6 iron was only 67MPH. So recommended I get a graphite shaft. Tried that and was getting 7 yards more carry on average then my Pings.
Even tried MP4 as well to show me that the shaft was right for me, which I also hit better then my irons.
So apart from the shaft change everything else standard, had a think over night and decided to splash the cash. Might get them by the weekend or more likely next week!!

Pretty excited to see them on the course.

Too right!

I think mine will arrive tomorrow, a wack at the range Tuesday and off to Spain Wednesday and hopefully I will give them a good testing

What spec did you plan to get?
 
Chris I just assumed I'd probably be regular flex shaft. The mizuno fitter thought that my current irons shaft possibly a little stiff for my swing speed.

Shaft is Orochi flex A, everything else is standard. Went for 5 to pitching wedge. As top end of the bag is sorted 😃

Just really annoying that the shafts make it more expensive then steel shafts. But decided that as my irons would need the lie changing and them possibly being a little stiff for me. Hopefully this will take me to the next level 👍

That sounds a good choice and you've got to hope that the fitters picked right but I'm sure you'll love them!
 
Hey Chris have you managed to get out with the new sticks yet. Just wondering how you're getting on with them :)

They are due to arrive tomorrow. I plan to hit at the range Tuesday and then I have 6 rounds planned in 4 days in Spain from Wednesday and hope to give them a good work out. I will no doubt post on the results when I can
