I bought today.....

I've been playing my Cobra Baffler XL Fairwaywoods (I have the 3 and the 7) for a few years now and absolutely love them. I really find the m superior to the newer models (some of which I tried during my Cobra fitting last year). They seem lighter to me, which suits my low swing speed, and they have the rails (which Cobra discontinued after that for a few years and then brought back with the F7s, I think). Maybe it is just psychological, but I really find that those rails help to prevent heavy contacts and they really give me confidence. Long story short, now that I am looking to fill my second bag (using my old iron set and an old putter which I still had), I was missing an affordable option for a long hitting club to use both off the tee (I don't have a second driver yet) and off the fairway, and I though: "Wouldn't it be nice if I could find one of those Baffler XLs again?" And I looked on ebay and yup, bingo, I found one (5 wood, demo club) for 50 €. Don't remember when I ever hit the "Buy now" button that quickly :)
 
Pair of new TM gloves. Was at the range today and both gloves in the practice bag were beyond useless really, so a pair of new ones for the main bag and I'll move the pair in the main bag to the practice bag.

And a new pair of wedges, 50 and 56. Not massively needed, just fancied a change!
 
Just bought a used in new condition Scotty Cameron Newport select. Was in the 2nd hand section in AG Lincoln for £67. Saw it in there last night asked if it was priced right, Pro told me they found it in a store cupboard when new company took over so had been written off against stockloss so whatever they made on it was a bonus.

Didn't buy it last night as never been a fan of Scottys before, but popped back in on way to work today and bought it. Nice little bargain complete with head cover, just need to put a Scotty grip back on it as currently has a superstroke one.
 
Bargain Scotty at that price, you'll easy make money on eBay if you don't like it. I bought a complete set from someone and there was a Scotty Newport 303 in the bag but for some reason the previous owner drilled a large hole in the face at the toe end of the club, not right through but about 1/2 inch deep and 1/2 inch wide and not very tidy done either, also had a horrible grip fitted to it and a few dings on the head. The whole set was a bargain so I didn't think much of it and not a fan of blade putters so was unlikely to use it. Sold the headcover on Ebay for £30 and listed the putter at 99p thinking it would maybe make £20 - £25 ended up selling for £67 so almost £100 for a poor condition putter with a hole drilled in it.

That's way I looked at it never really taken to them before but thought at that price it's worth a punt, if I don't get on with it I can put the original style grip on and sell it at a profit

I’ve got the same one and had it a year

It’s held well and can get more than half set in it

I like it
