Bag has been pretty set for a while after new woods this season.
Hopefully the MP20’s will be lookers as I fancy blades next. New wedges are due too but need an proper fitting to get them right this time.

Epic sub zero driver

Srixon z565 irons
Cleveland cg15 wedges (52&56)
Scotty del mar putter
Currently use chromesoft balls but I’ve got a tester box of snell mtb and mtb blacks to lose

Only change might be a 48 degree wedge as my pw is 44 so there’s a big gap to fill

Taylormade M2 Driver, 3 wood and 19 degree hybrid.
Mizuno JPX 900 Hot Metal
Taylormade Tour Preferred 50, 54 and 60 degree wedges
Taylormade Daytona OS Putter

Couple of changes planned.
Currently only playing 13 clubs so I’m after something like a Ping Crossover no4 to fill the gap.
Also have 3 SM6 Vokeys on the way that I will be trying out before hopefully putting in the bag.
Then finally I’m looking to try a mallet style putter..... There’s always something!

Nearly had the Daytona Redline when I got my Odyssey white hot. Seems a very good putter for the price!

When I first joined the forum, I think I had a mizuno bag and every club bar one was mizuno. Wasn't really a full on fan boy, having come back to golf I was bewildered by the choice. Over the years I have become more eclectic, also I enjoy picking up a bargain.

Radius Classic Heavy Mallet
2 x Snake Eyes forged wedges
Benross Tribe MDR wedge
5 - PW Benross Evolution R
Adams super s 22 hybrid
Wilson D200 17 hybrid
Calaway XR Steelhead 15
TM M4 driver 8.5

The 22 hybrid is 6 years old, a bit shabby, and have toying with changing probably for two years but it is still here. Was browsing some ideas last week but this weekend it reminded me why.

Yes it is a very good putter, I just think a face balanced may suit me better and I would like a little more forgiveness that a mallet provides.

As per signature.

Started to get worried my driver shaft isn't stiff enough, I have to slow things down or it's a big right miss (could be technique but slower swing is straight down the middle more often than not) so keeping my eye out for a something with a stiff shaft.

I can't hit my old, cheap 3 wood off the deck meaning my longest fairway club is my 3 hybrid (which goes 200-ish with roll) so absolutely no chance of hitting most par fives in two. Got my eye on a new fairway wood for this reason, I really like the look of the Rogues and I'm currently thinking 4 wood cos I like to be different.

Other than that if I ever end up with spare cash I'd love to do a full Callaway wedge fitting and get three or four Mac Daddys (dreaming here!).

If your driver shaft is too soft for your swing speed, it will 'release' too soon and you will probably hit it left (assuming you are right handed)
A stiffer shaft could possibly hit it further right.
My advice would be to try a few stiff shafts before you empty your wallet

Really? I had it in my head the shaft would still be 'bent' (ie not released) at time of impact leaving the club face open. So if my miss is high and right the shaft is more than likely not too soft?

The are several possibilities why you hit it high right but a soft shaft isn't likely to be one of them.

Tm m2 d type set to 11 Deg (kurokage stiff)
Callaway xr 4 wood (project x 6.0)
Ping g400 19deg hybrid
Ping g400 4-pw (project x lz 6.0)
Callaway md3 50,54,58 all 8 bounce
2ball o works putter

Want to change the hybrid for either a ping crossover or a tm gapr mid. I struggle with my hybrid but feel comfortable with a long irons and hit them well. At moment when woods aren’t behaving im teeing off with my 4 and 5i so want a longer backup club.
Considering to change driver for a ping g410 purely because I’ve redecorated the top and it looks hideous to look down on.

M2 HL driver
Superfast 2.0 3,4 and 5 hybrids
Rocketbladez irons 5-pw (sometimes swap 5 hybrid for 4 iron)
Callaway Mack Daddy 3 50 and 54 wedges
Cleveland rtx 2 58 wedge
Ping Anser Redwood putter

My hybrids are old and tatty but I haven’t found anything easier to hit so they stay in the bag.
I’d like the 10.5 head for my driver and some new irons for next season but no rush at all.
