Bomber_11 WITB 2018 (Greyson/Seamus/Jones/ButtonBack/PIC HEAVY)


Recommended Posts

Love everything about this bag, and your doggo is super cute.

 

Curious... Do you feel like the pro white is "smooth"? Looking for a slightly heavier graphite for my UDI but can't stand the stiff "non loading" feel shafts.

 

If I'm being honest, it's not an overly "smooth" shaft. The drawback to the Pro White is the fact that it's a butt-soft shaft, which is a player preference thing. I personally don't mind it, but it takes a little bit of hitting it to know how to release the club. The soft butt almost gives you that "i may have to flip this to save it..." feeling.

 

As for performance, it's top notch though. mid-launch bullets that are boring yet beautiful. This club hands down outperformed the retail P790 UDI w/ Hzrdus Black 85 in it.

 

May want to consider a Tensei Pro Blue 90TX - a little tougher to get your hands on, but would undoubtedly have a better 'load' feeling.

That's why I'm selling my Evenflow Black. The loading was nice but it felt like it was loading almost right under my hands. I'm so used to my Evo II which feels like it bends much closer to the middle (same with my Aldila 2KXV) that I wasn't consistent with it. Problem is that it's tough to find lower launching shafts that don't have this higher bend point feel that are also still smooth.

Great day banging drives with the new Synergy Black 60TX! This club can not miss left which is such a relief for me, as that's my "catastrophic" miss.

 

Also snagged a new rangefinder. Tour V4 Patriot Pack

 

 

I am not a swing guru but damn you load that shaft well at the top!

Memorial Day was spent fly fishing instead of golfing :)

 

Beartooth Wilderness in southern Montana. Rivers flowing at record highs so we did a lot more scouting spots than actual fly fishing.

 

Also did a little wedge work. Told my daughter she could paint the 56* Vokey any way she wanted...it was a total swirl of white and pink that actually turned out kind of cool once I removed enough layers with acetone :D

Fly fishing > Everything else

Yes very true, fortunately my wife tought my daughters well. from the catch totals, I am a mere armature at best, but I enjoy my time on the water with them more than anything. Well maybe with the exception of my time on the golf course with them where I can still beat them for now...LOL.

New wedges, same mediocre wedge game :D

 

 

 

 

 

How do you like the Pro+? I've been playing for about a year and really like it. I can't say I've been on a launch monitor to really know if I've lost or gained anything, but all my distances and spin still seem the same to what I was getting from other premium brands.

top of the shafts look like c taper in the irons?

How are you liking the 115s? I've got the 95s in my long irons now but I am very intrigued by a little more weight there.

115's are awesome! I was super skeptical when I got them because I've always though graphite iron shafts were for old men saving their joints.

 

They play and feel like lightweight X100's. Really tight dispersion, really nice load, and absolutely no vibration or stinging when you mishit one a little.

 

I'm not sure if it's the weight, or the loading, or what it is but I am considerably longer with these shafts. I've never been a long hitter w/ irons (130 PW, 145 9i, 155 8i, 170 7i, etc.) but I'm now hitting my 8 iron 175 carry which is kind of messing up my game. I just need to get my distance control down with these is all.

I just thought my bag was set for the season! The extra 20g in those long irons would be nice. Looks like I am about to have to send some clubs in for a build ha.

 

That's an interesting note about the distances. I'm hitting my 3 and 4 iron with the 95i in them longer than I used to hit my old 3/4i, but these VFPs are 19* and 21* loft. The shafts could be playing a role in the added distance too.

^ just curious bomber, what's your driver swing speed like? I love mid launching shafts in my woods and irons but I tend to turn them over really easily now a days. I'm playing stiffs and I don't have mega distance, but I'm wondering if maybe it's time for X flex?

 

Driver swing speed is around 114-116 on average with really aggressive swings hitting 119-121.

 

I have to stay off the throttle with my current setup though, as the AD DI 6X isn't designed for 120mph at all lol. It gets wild when I have a lapse in judgment and swing too hard!
