So who's bought new shineys for 2013 and why?

[Khamelion]

Go on hands up o/

Well that would be me, after seeing the white a a couple of years back, I've gone to the dark side. My driver was never fitted and since getting a fitting I found the shaft was all wrong for me so my TM R11 wen the journey for the new Titleist D2 913 and now I'm going to get the Titleist 913 fairway so the driver won't feel lonely in my bag. The Putter need some loving so I found that my current putter didn;t suit my style of swing, so that's been replaced with a TM White Smoke toe weighted blade.

So has any one else made some small tweaks or under gone major surgery and replaced the whole shebang?

Nada not a single new shiney In my bag as I'm happy with my set up though I did get 2 new stand bags and am slightly tempted by the Orange Amp Cell

 

[Alex1975]

Got a couple of Mizuno JPX 825 Pro, few more to come done the road... I am in love!

 

[full_throttle]

Philthefragger, fundy and myself have all got new shineys in the last month. All I can say is they are awesome

 

[G1BB0]

Just a sexy little Odyssey pitch mark repairer for me.

Would of shown it off to all at Tadmarton Heath today but the geens were frozen solid.

lol youd have snapped it in half if you'd have tried to have used it today!

Going to get fit for the Ping G25 rescue... Because I love the look of it.

 

[Essex_Stu]

The driver has had a new shaft because I didnt really like the feel of the tour shaft. the 3 wood is about 6 months old, the rescue is new last week because I cant stop hooking my mashie, the irons are a month old as the black finish had completley worn off my Burner 2.0's, the wedges are brand new as I couldnt get on with the size of the CG16's and the putter is 3 months old as I couldnt putt for toffee with the Scotty. All the changes have been worth it and finally feel the bag is complete.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

I will be. Just a question of narrowing down the choices and then getting a fitting fot the ones I choose. Could be a long process with so much choice.

 

[Airlie_Andy]

A new driver and hybrid for me. My previous driver and hybrid were both draw bias and both bought second hand. Before I started taking lessons the left hand side of the course was never in play for me as I sliced everything but now my bad shot is a snap hook/pull so the draw bias was just killing me.

 

[chris661]

Changed my irons to a combination of orka rs5 and rs3 also got an orka hybrid and new shaft for my three wood (last chance saloon for it ) was a combination of price and fancying a change. The only other thing that might change would be wedges but not until later in the year most likely september or so.

 

[User 105]

Yep.

Scotty Studio Select Newport 2 about 3 weeks ago. Because it's WILL make me the best putter in the World
Got fitted for a G25 driver yesterday at the Belfrey. Because it WILL make me Bubba long.

In reality, I just wanted them

Right here my man!!

Driver, fairway, irons and wedges all shiney new. No other reason than I could afford too. My previous gear would have lasted me a good few seasons more, but I probably wouldn't be able to financially then, so spotted my opportunity and took it.

They all seem to be working well for the most part.

I'm now also looking at a 910H but nothing set in stone yet.

I'm going to be undergoing some swing surgery over the course of this season with a view to improving over the long term. This is where my main focus is now.

 

[Wolfman]

Mizuno JPX 825 Pro for me ( actually got in end December ready for 2013 )

Plus two Mizuno MPT-4 WEDGES

 

[J5MBF]

Yep! Got myself some Ping G15 3-SW. I know they are ugly in people's eye (beauty is in the eye of the beholder blah blah) but I hit them better than 4 or 5 other options. I'm a mid-high handicapper hoping to improve so anything that easy to hit is a big bonus! And these certainly are. Also wanted some irons as my first set were 2nd hand and wanted my OWN ones! Just waiting for my Bro in law to Junk his RBZ driver and I'll be having that off him and changing the shaft. After that, I fancy a new hybrid but don't know which one.

 

[Stuart_Wales]

Very tempted at the idea of some shineys. Will probably stick to my ancient ping i3's and pick up a few bargains on a 3wood and maybe rescue second hand...

 

[Ping Paul]

I bought myself a new set of G20's as I wanted to match them up with my other clubs.All my others I bought seconhand of the bay.I had been using a very old set of Donnay irons up till then.

 

[pbrown7582]

I've got hold of a ghost spider to threaten the 2ball's residency.

 

[El Bandito]

Yep. I am that soldier. Whole new shebang. Cash was available, temptation was strong. Waiting for last piece of the jigsaw, a new big stick that arrives on Wednesday. Got properly fitted. Hasn't as yet turned me in Tiger Woods, but hopefully the girls and the scores are just around the corner:whoo:
