It was in "Golfers Warehouse" which is apparently a chain store in the Northeast. (Not trying to plug so if this is against any rules, please delete)
Went in and their were several mfg's there with reps and an area to hit their clubs... Cobra, Adams, Taylor Made, Nike, Callaway and others.
Tried out a lot of clubs I couldn't hit and couldn't afford anyway
Really liked the SuperQuad but it's out of my price range, as were the Cobra irons I tried out (I was shanking those anyway, lol) I also tried fthe TM Burner and to be frank it was horrible, imo. Just felt like shit even on the best shots. Seemed like it launched the ball OK but ... something was off with it, it just felt plain BAD.
I saw a set of Srixon clubs and went over to look at 'em. I'd heard them talked about here but had never seen them before. They looked and hit very nice, probably more for pro's than hackers like myself but they felt good wqhen i hit it square. For being the only guy to give his clubs any attention up to that point I got a couple free sleeves of Srixon TriSpeed balls, BONUS!
BIG line at the Nike stand but those clubs are damn fugly, much like the review on the lead page for shottalk says. I mean, U-G-L-Y, ugly. They must hit nice cause dudes were drooooolin' over 'em.
Also got a free Callaway hat and a Nike T-shirt to go with the free Srixon balls.
Overall it was an interesting time but it was rather busy so I couldn't get a lot of time with any salesperson or rep to ask questions. I certainly don't hold it against anyone, there were lines everywhere, but unless I knew exactly what I wanted, what loft and shaft type without asking questions, it wasn't worth shopping there. Nobody had the time to help a guy like me.
CErtainly not a big show but probably worth a ride if you're in the area... they have them in a couiple Ma cities toimorrow.
