Dutch WITB

Hi guys! I've been looking around here for some time now, about time to show my own Callaway bag.

Driver: RAZR Fit 9.5° Fujikura Fuel Tour spec 60X

Fairway: Optiforce 15* Diamana S+ 62+

Hybrid: X utility prototype 18° 6.0 pxi

Irons: RAZR x Tours 3-AW standard L\L\L

Wedges: Forged 56, 60°

Putter: Versa 2-ball (Old 2 ball in the picture)

Ball: Hex hot pro

Bag: Euro Chev Luxury Cart Bag 2013

I play off an 14 hcp

Beautiful looking set, Im sure they play just as good as they look!

Nice bag!!

15 clubs.....which do you normally take out?

Either the 18° or the 3 iron, usually the 3 iron.

HOw you liking those irons?, I can get a set cheap and im not hitting my blades very well this year...thinking about it.

I really like these irons! The design is perfect, little off set, little help but great performance. I upgraded from the X14 and never looked back. I highly recommend them. You should try them at least.

This page is only one day old, but already a change. Last weeks release of the optiforce fairway woods made me question my XHP 13.5 order. I decided to cancel the order and I'll test drive the new fairway woods asap.

RXT irons are sleepers! Been playing a set for a few months and don't see them coming out the bag for a while! Hard to beat their workability plus forgiveness.

I orderded the new optiforce fairwaywood last night. After cancelling the x-hot pro the buzz around the FT finally captured me. Since I really love my 3W RARZ Hawk I went with the same setup, 15° Mitsubishi Diamana S+ stiff, standard length. The last weeks my driver was left in the bag during a few rounds in a row and I used my 3W. I hit it around 250 meter (275 yds) so plenty of length but more accuracy. My driver is about 305-310 but not as accurate (and some huge slices from time tot time).

Can't wait for it to arrive

After a deal from WRX went wrong I was left the challenge of connecting my RAZR Fit grip and my head again with a decent shaft. After feeling quite mad for a while I found a dealer in England to provide me with a new shaft. I went with the Diamana S+ 62 Stiff, 43.75 (45.0 with head). I wanted to gain a bit more control over my driver to took 1/2 inch of and kept i quite light. What do you guys think of this shaft?

It should arrive somewhere this week, i'll let you know what happens next.

I like the shaft in my 913 3w but not in my driver. It's too whippy for the big head of a driver but I think it is definitely more stable with the head size of a 3w.

What's your SS?

So I tested the Diamana S+ 62 stiff today in my RAZR fit(9.5). Even though I felt more confident with the shorter shaft, I turned out very disappointing. I usually carry my driver 250, I probably lost 10-20 yds instantly with this new shaft over the OEM ALDILA RIP'D NV, both stiff. It also felt like I couldn't store and release the energy I was used to. It (I) produced big fade/slices, even after compensating the driver to a closed and draw setup. The shaft looked too whippy and soft for me. The face remained open on almost every strike.

After half a bucket I knew this wasn't the shaft for me. I'm sure I'll give it another try soon but I think I'll reinstall the ALDILA soon. I also think best option for me now is to do another propper fitting. Although my game doesn't really need a driver (long enough with the 3W), I really want to be able to hit it properly and have this option in the bag.

The search continuous...

Really nice looking bag!

Always the best feeling when track and trace status is changed to 'delivery today'. Feeling like a little kid today waiting for my new 3W. I'll be testing the Ft optiforce tonight and have a trackman sessions planned for friday. I'll post some pictures and comments.

Also created a topic in equipment; http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/topic/886606-optiforce-3w-diamana-ready-for-testing/

Just a picture update on the bag. I've put away the 3 iron again and put the 18* utility back in. The optiforce and versa are relatively new. I've got 4 spots in the bag under investigation. 1. The driver setup, doing a fitting tomorrow. 2. The 3W, either the optiforce or the razr hawk. 3. The 3-iron/utility/hybrid?? spot?? 4. The wedges department. Thinking of replacing the AW gapwedge with an x forged 50*, or getting all MD 2's(which isn;t possible yet).

Edit : time for some decent pictures..

The tinkering continues (luckily the Dutch word for Ho is quite similar )

After a very interesting trackman session, http://www.golfwrx.com/forums/topic/888276-driver-back-in-the-bag-fittingtrackman-showed-issues-help-needed/

I ordered a optifit weight kit and a Diamana S+ 72 stiff @45.25 to test against the S+ 62 stiff. Trying to get my driver game more in shape.

you need a tour bag!!!!!!!!!

I have a diablo staff for sale right now. Came to my senses...

New ball marker or medal ( it's (*^%@# big!)

Found a nice deal on a RFE 9.5 head only so I pulled the trigger. Let's hope international shipping is more helpful this time. This gives me another option to test in the river area. Now I have a diamana S+ 62(45.00) and 72(45.25) and a RF and RFE 9.5 head to play around with for the next weeks, and some weights to test. The FRE headcover should be a nice match in the black and green bag.

Another update and hopefully upgrade to the bag. I snagged a super stroke mid slim 2.0 from the bay last week and installed it just now. Really easy and it smells great . After seeing quite a few SS on WRX but also on tour I'm very eager to try it. What's your experience? Just a few pics of the process.

I've been following the release of the Apex quite closely but I wasn't immediately impressed, nor was I looking for a new set of irons. But at the time I got an offer for a set of X forged 2013 I kinda new. This I mine. I got a great deal on the new set (only a few irons) hit in demos. It is a 4-PW pxi 5.5 setup which means I need another extra GW. Can't wait for these beauties to arrive . Before I knew I was getting new irons I already ordered a bushnell V3. So great month

This is the new setup. The x forged set doesn't carry an AW so I need to purchase a 50/52 wedge in the near future. I'll wait until the MD2's are more readily available and upgrade the entire wedge section. Any pointers on the 52/50 decision? I hit my 50* AW around 105m and would like to add a 100m club.

Unfortunately I'm ready to test the new clubs since I injured my wrist last week. I'm not sure how long I can wait

Nice looking setup there. The Xforged are legit.

Yeah, I've heard so many good things about them. Nice setup.

Nice lookin irons you got there. Enjoy!

Cheers guys, the x forged are the! best looking irons out there imho. Just an honour to have them in the bag. Looking forward to testing how they treat me.

Some bad news, I just noticed I'm missing my x tour 9 iron I hope somebody found it and put it in lost and found. If not, goodby second hand value

beautiful set my friend!
