This was a very bad post!!!!!!!....you made me take a look at how many irons I have had in the time since i joined my golf cub in May 2009


Staggeringly it is 11 sets......

2 x Callaway ( x forged)

3 x Nike ( VR combo, VR cavity, VRII blades)

1 x Wilson (FG tour)

4 x Mizuno (MP62, MP60, JPX800 pro, MP62 Nickel)

1 x TaylorMade (MC)

My disease also spread to woods, so every time I changed my irons, I had to change my woods, (driver, 3 wood & 2 x utility)....so I have had:

2 x Callaway (ERC2, Diablo black tour)

2 x Nike (Sumo, VR)

2 x Ping ( G10, i15)

1 x Mizuno (MP fast track)

1 x TM (R11s)

Don't even want to start adding it up, but on irons and woods alone it has to be over £10K

probably around £1500 on shoes & the same on bags. and again on putters

:mad:

Throw in an SGX, 2 powakaddies & a Bushnell..........don't get me started on clothes :whistle:


Alex...when was the 1st session????

Wow!! What you do for a living fella? So I can start training for whatever it is!!!

I think that was the 1st session brother Rick, I think we should all thank brother Rick for sharing his story with us and starting on the road to recovery :D
 
Wow I now don't feel so bad. In just over 2years I have had my current set up and my first ever set which was dunlops from sport world. Although I am going to be changing the benross soon had them for a year. And I enjoy looking at drivers and wedges which is never good me as I will give in
 
My list isn't too bad. Since starting again last May, I've had 3 sets of irons (Cally X Forged, Mizzy Mx23's and Mizzy JPX800 Pro's), 2 putters, 3 drivers, 4 bags, 2 pairs of shoes, 2 trolleys, numerous shirts, trousers, jackets, jumpers....

If it helps, I've found a way to counteract the constant compulsion to buy new shiny. I've recently managed to persuade the brother in law to start playing. This means that I'm now on eBay all the time looking for his first decent set of clubs (and shoes, bag, trolley etc etc). This means that I haven't bought anything for a few weeks (unless you count the little splurge I had in the Woburn shop).
 
In honour of my best ever round (so far!) yesterday I've just bought myself three new Vokey wedges.

Then took them home a stripped the grips off so that I could put midsize grips on them. Had to do it quickly - it felt rather like defacing a work of art!
 
opk, I am definitely addicted to buying gear, I know I could have had a shedload of lessons & range time for less and be a better player but thats half the fun

Titleist 775cb's
