The Wager...

Pigems, did I miss it or did you get a pass on buying the fairway woods? Or are you out of the wager?
[/quote]

My wide bought me the heads, but i was losing hard anyways lol

Now that the cats out of the bag lol, Yeah, I'm building some new to me fairways woods

[clubtwirlz]

Also, I have a question for any of you that helped me earlier with the club building. My g15 4 wood head is a .350 head and the shaft I have is a .335. What do I do now???

[Pigems]

You can use a shim or some shafting beads to make up the difference. PD knows much more about this then I do but that will at least give you something you can search up in the mean time

[Pigems]

OK so here's what happened. I was just minding my own business, strolling thru ebay when I this add popped up for these three club heads for $55 buy it now and $11 shipping. Considering that any one of these heads are normally selling for $35/75 each plus $25/45 shipping. I had no choice but to get them somehow, If my wife hadn't agreed to buy for me them I was going out because it was just to good a deal to pass up on.

And I picked these shafts up today at Golf Central to go in them for $20 each on clearance

[Pigems]

I really do like my current fairway woods, my only gripe with them is that there not adjustable. So I can't easily try out shafts or adjust lie angle. So hopefully these will solve that problem for me and give me a fun spring project before the season starts.

I'm currently thinking about just installing the hybrid head onto my 3 iron shaft to try it in steel first. If that doesn't work I'll find something else

And the science fair begins anew

You lefties get all the good deals. I suppose you also got a discount on the shafts because of your left handeness?

I agree with your assessment Pigs.

As per your own build. I believe I posted a step-by-step installation 'guide' for lucas a few pages back. I believe I was referencing steel shafts, but did include comments about graphite installation. I may be fuzzy on the details.

[PeanutsDaddy]

Congratulations Mrs. Pigs. I really like the look of those new Titleist heads you purchased ; )

Pige,

What is the loft on your hybrid?

[Conrad1953]

Uh, I saw video of Mrs. Pigs a few pages back swinging a club at
the sim. I don't remember her swinging left handed. Is she an
ambidextrous golfer?

She obviously can't refuse a good deal like the rest of us. Pigs is grooming her for the big spending spree. The Wager is over in a month. Think of the damage this dynamic duo could cause on April 2nd.

They should call the local Golftown and give them a heads up

so they'll have plenty of inventory on hand. The manager of that

store should take Mr. and Mrs. Pigs to dinner if a sales record

is shattered.

 

And Pigs needs to get her back to the sim for some left handed

video swings with those Titleist clubs, don't you agree? :D

 

I'm still pulling for you PD.

5.99 for NDMC is a great price, especially if they have many of the

colors available. I'd grab some for sure at that price. :D

A noble quest,
I'm looking at ditching my 3 iron. I've got less than $15.00 invested so far. Gonna try a Bridgestone 5 wood, and that 21* John Daly (just grip it and rip it) hybrid, to fill the gap between 4 iron and 3 wood. I need some good weather to see how far I hit em. Hope they work good for ya Pige. Should be able to get your money back out of em if they don't. It's rumoured people like Titleist clubs.

Nope, 100% Merican ,
You guy's completely lose me when you abbreviate hockey team names, and even after a Indian client of mine spent a lot of time explaining Cricket to me, I still am confused.
Just a poor speller I guess. I'll have to consult my Webster's, to find the correct non King's English spelling.

Was my school's cricket 'coach' for a year (the only year we had a team). 7 Pakistani students. 5 hour matches. I had no idea what I was doing. In our last game one of our students nearly beat an opponent with a cricket bat. The sport was too intense for me and our school.

A righty,
Lefties have got a bit of advantage on us in the weak hand department. We used to have ambidextrous bowling matches when I was in college, where you bowled lefty if you were a righty, and vice versa. The one lefty in our bunch was a tough out in that.
He and I figured that some of it is because most things are set up for right handers, and he is forced to use his weak hand to do routine things like open doors, shift gears, etc.

Our greens keeper is a lefty, and every now and then, he'll prank a unsuspecting left handed golfer by saying he always wanted to try hitting a left handed driver. He'll tee one up and bust it down the middle, and say, just like switch hittin in baseball, nothing too it.

I remember the matches were long and the term over being used instead of inning? Are you a teacher P.D.?

[LittlePoison1980]

For the other gear heads, I think I might try adding a point or two of sw to the MP69s... not regretting the KBS Tours in these at all. Much better match, for me, than the DG variants.

I may not get a chance to play around with getting the XTD Forged heads shafted and gripped...

... until the next score card implosion.
