I bought today.....

Don't be surprised if you end up back with your stock pitching wedge soon

I did the same

My loft is 43, 50, 54,58

The gap between the 43 and the 50 isn't that much at all

But was in my head and I got a 46 that matches the 50 54 58

Played with it for a year

Went back to stock and don't miss the vokey one bit

I'm not replacing the PW though. I'm having both. The topic about it is in Ask The Experts, but the short version - my PW is 44° and goes about 125 while the GW is 50° and 100 which is a big gap in itself. My theory is that the PW goes much further because it's a game improvement iron, so the new 46° hopefully goes around 110-112 to fill the gap. Just gonna have to try it and see. On paper the lofts would look silly but it's about how far they go ultimately.

Yep I started off this as having as both

Then found they both went exactly the same because loft is rubbish. GI irons go higher so they cranked the lofts down to reduce the height and get the distance back

I'd be surprised if it goes any different

Today I bought some FJ shoes. (as per other thread)

I also bought a new roll of grip tape, Nikwax wash, and a new pair of MacWets.

I get what you're saying but logically speaking there has to be a happy medium I just need to find it by trial and error if necessary.

After the colder heavy conditions of yesterday, poped in on my way home a got a box of Pink Callaway Supersoft for winter golf

 

[larmen]

Got a Motocaddy Cube3 push trolley today, and a Motocaddy trolley bag.
I really wanted a Ping Hoofer bag, but if I ever carry then my old Nike should be sufficient.
Also got a ProQuip rain jacket while I was there.

Ordered a G SF Tec 3 wood yesterday, as I wanted to try an SF Tec model over my current G25 which has been very fadey. Golfclubs4cash via Ebay, managed to get £20 off with some Ebay promotion that was on (and is still on I think), so only £88 in the end.

I've also just ordered a second hand paperback copy of Golf Is Not A Game Of Perfect by Dr Bob Rotella for two quid on Ebay. Thought it might be an interesting read for me, and hopefully reinforce the better parts of my current thinking.

I bought a Ping G series SF Tec driver 2 months ago & have been delighted with it.

Read the Rotella book 10 years ago - a lot of the thinking seems obvious once you have read it, but certainly worthwhile, and a book you can refer back to periodically if required. He was the first high profile golf mind guru - the David Leadbetter of his field.

I had a G30 SF Tec driver, have just upgraded to the G410 SFT and loving it. So I thought I might as well try the SF Tec in a wood as well. Foolproof! Ha.

Yeah, reading reviews of the book it's meant to be pretty simple stuff, but maybe things forgotten on the course and it might help me keep them in mind. I have 40 mins of sitting on the Overground every morning anyway so gives me something to read if nothing else.

Had my new 46° regripped to get rid of the disgusting midsized align grip the previous owner put on. Standard Golf Pride all the way. Bag of pink tees as well since I've gone back to them now.

I've always wondered who was the person who bought those pink tees! They are plastic so don't break, highly visible, and I see them lying around on every course I play. I must have a life time supply at the bottom of my golf bag .

I only had a couple left in the bag from when I used to use them a year ago. I always pick mine up as long as they're not broken or haven't disappeared, so a bag of tees generally lasts me about 18 months.

Nope I thought the same but phoned up to check and it's open, there's a comp on today so think that's why, it's been quite soggy past few days

I've never bought a tee in my life, find as many as I use / lose, I only use white wooden tees and they are always lying around. It's the great circle of life.
