bruinsPATSirish WITB: UPDATE 2016 Taylormade, Titleist, Bettinardi, TEE


Recommended Posts

Love the 7W! Just added a 5HL 21* to my bag and love it. So much more consistent and can hit it higher and more consistently than my 4i. 222 Carry landing soft are you kidding! May never keep a 4i in the bag again lol How do you like those irons? Looking into a new set thinking TM or Mizuno to put my recently acquired KBS Tour S+ shafts in.

 

Yeah man! Never thought I would find a 7 wood in my bag, but at 21* it is basically an old school 5 wood anyways.

 

The irons are SICK. Better feeling than my old TM MC/MB irons and the consistency is waaaay better than the Adams XTD tour I was hitting. Definitely would recommend the RSi TPs

What length do you play the 7W at? I tried a few and they all came stock at 43" I play my Driver under 45", 3W at 43" so I settled on 42" for the 5HL. 43" for a 7wood is crazy TM will do anything to market their clubs as the longest.

 

My 7 wood plays at 42" as well

I added a 7w back in the mix ... it's the newer heavenwood with a whiteboard 83. 64* on sideline for now

 

Here's what is weird for me ... i prefer a 7w off the tee on tight par 4 holes vs hybrids ... anyone else? The 7w misses are better for me YMMV

 

PS Chad ... it was good to see you at TPC !!! Great track in great shape

I love the M1 + Black AD DI. I've been considering a M2 + Black AD DI combo.

 

Did you have to go up in loft with the M1 or have you played 10.5 in the past?

Usually have been a higher lofted driver. Loft is my friend. That being said, when hitting the M2 even the 9.5* was launching for me with too much spin and height.

 

So much more confidence with a 7w than a hybrid for me as well. Maybe its just the look at address but I have more confidence then with a hybrid.

 

I completely agree. So far the on course results have been EXACTLY what I was looking for. High, soft, and straight.

Amen to that brother, had 220 to reach a Par 5 in 2 the other day, hit a big high cut landed perfect 15 ft just on the fringe. Could have never done that with a hybrid or 3i, validated all this testing!

Yup! Same today for me, 230 carry over water on a par 5 with a tail wind. Hit the green and missed the eagle putt. Made the bird and like you said with a 3 iron or hybrid I doubt I could carry AND hold the green

And to think some of the "Miura Boys" at the Wells make fun of my 7 wood. But then again I can not carry mine 230 over the water just about 190 or so for me.

Glad to hear about the 60 deg ATV EF wedge. I am likely picking up the satin version when it comes out in a few weeks. Just not sure what shaft....

 

I am grinding hard on a colleague for some of the satin wedges ASAP but it looks like I might have to wait till they show up at retail.

 

The 60atv is such a great club. They got that right no doubt

 

I just pulled the trigger on a 60ATV in satin. Ending up going with the 610 shaft to try something different. I will let you know how it goes....

 

As far as a 7 wood, I can definitely see them being an advantage for big hitters. I remember Garrigus (what happened to that guy?) using one a few years back.

Did some testing and it looks like I am getting even better numbers and dispersion for my driver from a Matrix Black Tie 7m3

 

Decided to hit the one I used to have in my SLDR in the M1 for giggles and it is nice. Surprisingly the luanch angle is up and the spin stayed the same as the Tour ADDI7x

After a week of practice and a few rounds the Matrix 7m3 Black Tie has been named the official Opening Day starter in the rotation!

 

Launching it higher with low spin, carry is up and I am playing well with it. The feel on the Black Tie is very unique and going back to it after so long has reminded me how much I like it.
