This is pretty cool. My GF had this little digital food measuring scale I found in a drawer so I weighed the weights from the Fake R7, the 12's weighed 8 and 10 grams. So I weighed a bunch of clubs and this is what I came up with.

R5 driver- 300-310g
200Steel driver- 315-320g
3w - 350-360g
Sonartec MD23- 350-360g
5iron- 410-420g
8iron- 430-440g
SW- 490-500g

I found this quite interesting.

And good to know those 12s aren't accurate. However, I'd be curious if you weighed the legit weights, :D

Ah, the perfect world! I find it amusing however that the sand wedge is one of the shortest clubs but weighs the most. Like Ez, I hate light clubs and wold prefer my driver to be a similar weight to my sand wedge

I also like heavier feel in my clubs, however I do want my sandwedge to be the heavyweight in the bag, it digs better that way. If the driver head weighed that much I would need a way stiffer shaft on it.

Believe me, you wouldn't want a driver that weighed 500grams. What I really found interesting was that the hybrid weighs about the same as the 3wood. I need to swap a stiff steel into that club.

When I was re-shafting my 3 and 5 woods, I was blown away that the 5 wood weighed damn near double what the 3 wood did. For some reason I expected them to be damn near the same.

Bah, like on the pussycat dolls song:

"Don't you wish your girlfriend was raw like me"

:D

I'll pass you in posts, even if I have to hire your girl to whack you. Man...none of my posts sound good today.
