My WITB

[BStone]

I don't think I have ever posted one of these, so here goes.


My bag for 2012


Clubs are listed in the signature, experimenting with a 3 iron hybrid.


Driver, 3 wood, and the 2 hybrid shafts, the white HM2 is in the 2 hybrid and the black HM2 is in the 3 hybrid.

Some pretty mean sticks there BStone.

Good to see another Nike ho.

I like the paint job on the blades! Did you do that yourself?

I haven't looked into Nike much, how are the VR's? I still love the look of the original blades!

I like the kid's toys too!!

 

[BStone]

No, Nike did the stamping and the paint for me when I placed my staff order with them. They are one of the easiest companies I have done a staff agreement with when it comes to shaft upgrades and other customization.

I can't take a step without either kicking a bouncy seat or stepping on a dog toy.

I'm playing those wedges this year beginning on my birthday. I've fooled with them a bit at the range and practice green. Love love love them. Pleasure delaying.

I really like the wedges and they did a really cool test with me when I was down at The Oven, they had me hit a wedge with no grooves off of a lie board and showed that I was able to spin the ball with a clean dry lie with no grooves. I then hit the same shot with the grooveless wedge after they put a little water on the ball, it was so inconsistent. Then hit the VR Pro wedges with water on the ball and saw that the consistency of the spin rates was really impressive, no more than a 200 rpm difference on 10 shots.

I have to admit that I think the hex grooves are phucking bawss. Love the look behind the ball too. My tm ztp wedges always seem a little shut to me. These Nike's just frame the ball perfectly. I was hitting so many chips to kick-in range, and even making a few. When you love a club you either don't miss, or you forget that you missed.

Sweet, sweet bag. I might have to post one of these soon. I'm playing MP58s now. Most beautiful clubs I've ever seen.

 

[MIKE1218]

Pretty clubs. Bad habit of mine, I pick pretty clubs that may not work out as well as ugly clubs might lol. I'll have to post one of these too, maybe tomorrow.

After my trip out to Carlsbad, I have gone on staff with Callaway for 2013. I was very impressed with their entire line for this season and their plans for the future. I haven't gotten everything yet, still waiting on the 3 wood, wedges, putter, and I haven't decided which bag I want to go with yet, but it's still January so I have some time to figure that out, I'm hoping they bring the red X Hot bag out to the public.

The new bag will consist of:
Razr Fit Xtreme 9.5* Matrix Ozik HD8
X Hot Pro 15* Matrix Ozik HD9
X Utility 18* Project X PXi
X Forged 3-PW Project X PXi
Black Finish 52 & 58 Project X PXi
Odyssey Versa #9
Hex Black Tour Ball

I'll get some pictures up shortly.

I looked at most of that stuff except the utility and wedges and the stuff does look pretty nice. Especially those irons. I bet eventually you will dump that 3i and go back to three wedges though.

 

[BStone]

You are probably right, I rarely hit a 3 iron which is why I took it out of the bag last year.

 

[BigJim13]

When u go on staff like that, do you have to pay for that new equipment?

It depends on the company, most will allow fourteen clubs and anything more than that you would have to pay a personal use discount price that is calculated off of wholesale.
