Challenge Tour Pro
Good evening guys,
I've spent a fair amount of time over the years on a couple of US golf forums but, for some reason, have never looked into UK based forums... until this evening. So... hello.
My set up is as per my signature below and I play to a 12 handicap... it was 8 a couple of years ago but, well, work gets in the way of most recreational activities doesn't it. Driver swing speed is 101-103mph last time I measured a few years back and I'm fairly high spin with the driver.
The driver and irons are new (to me) this season so I'm looking forward to getting to know them a bit better. They were fairly rash purchases albeit researched to a degree beforehand.
I was looking for better 'feeling' irons so decided the forged CB3s with super smooth KBS Tours would be a good option. I've had Adams irons in the past and got on reasonably well with them. As for the AMP (I'd have quite liked the AMP Cell for the adjustability, but still a tad expensive), I was keen to get back into Cobra after a great relationship with an F-Speed / Aldila NV a few years ago. I don't have the right shaft for it yet which is next on my to-do list - thinking a Whiteboard, Ahina or maybe even a Kaili but I'll see what comes up. That is one slight disappointment with the Amp; used shafts with adapters are nowhere near as prevalent as the Taylormades, Titleists, etc. and the adapters themselves seem few and far between for me to build myself. Like I say though, looking into this a little more is next on the list.
So, if you're looking to move on any AMP driver shafts.
I gave up my club membership a couple of years ago due to work commitments and just play periodically at local courses as and when time allows. Certainly planning to play a lot more this year though and really get back into the game. Hence the unnecessary equipment purchases to reinvigorate interest for the start of the season.
Anyway, enough of my ramblings for now. I just hope to get something from the forum and, where possible, give something back.
