WITB - Indulge me

[babylonsinger]

Not sure how I've missed this thread since it was created:

Callaway XR Speed 10.5" Driver
Wilson Stretch XL 15" 3 Wood
Adams Ideas 18" Hybrid
Titleist TSi1 20" 7 Wood
Tour Edge Hot Launch C522 22" Hybrid
Wilson Stretch XL Irons 5-SW
Wilson Harmonised 56" Wedge
TM Raylor Ghost Fontana Putter

The Wilson Stretch clubs will almost definitely be replaced this year - bought a set in 2011 and they have largely served me well since then but time to upgrade

 

[Deleted member 1147]

I had a few vouchers to use at AG so treated myself to a TM 52* wedge to replace my 50 & 54* vokeys.
Was hoping to try it today, but the course was closed due to being waterlogged.

How do you like the Tour 919 and how hard are they to hit well relative to the 2i HMB?

 

[Shooter McPowick]

How do you like the Tour 919 and how hard are they to hit well relative to the 2i HMB?

Sorry, forgot to put WHS in which is 8.2

I came from 850 forged and while there was nothing really wrong with them I loved the 919’s when they were released… had a fitting at Silvermere and apart from distances (850’s are 2 degrees stronger) I didn’t find them any harder to hit.

One thing I’ve noticed over the years is that sometimes a mishit with the 850’s can be a flier and go very long (in the wrong direction) the mishits with the 919’s are generally shorter. Overall, being short isn’t a problem and a lot better than in the bushes behind the green.

The HMB 2i doesn’t actually have a very big sweet spot. My tendency is out the toe slightly and the HMB is not forgiving at all out the toe.

A mate had a set of these, and loved how forgiving and workable they were. He's off +3 and a great ball striker. we were playing a Texas scramble at Muir of Ord, playing the 8th. He's got 170 to the pin, 7 iron flushes it .. flew the green, the bushes behind and 20 yards into the turnip field oob. ?

Did you try T22 wedges before you bought your Vokey’s ?

No mate. Had the vokeys before I got the irons.

Just awaiting for the G430 to be released to get a 24° hybrid and then I think I'm set.
The only question mark is around the Apex UW shaft as I was ideally after a Tensei Blue but the white showed up on eBay dead cheap (£130)...

How are you liking the i230's?

I'm just recovering from further foot surgery and then I'm booking a fitting. They look sensational

[Ando]

I chop and change a couple of pieces depending on conditions and form.

Ping G410 10.5
Callaway RAZR 4 wood
Sometimes a Titleist 19degree hybrid (either a 913 or 915 - can't remember and temporarily on loan to my brother)
Srixon z585 4-pw/Mizuno mp20 hmb 5-pw
Cleveland 588 RTX CB 50 and 56 degree wedges
Odyssey white ice putter, number 5 I think.

Also have a couple of old Taylormade 200 series fairway woods, a Titleist 3 wood with a 5 wood shaft, a ping eye 2 2 iron that could get called up from the bench at certain times. A bladed Taylormade 9 iron tends to be in the bag in the summer - love it for bump and runs.
