Here is one that I've seen https://drivingrangeheroes.com/sub-70-jb-full-groove-wedge-review/

Just bought my first SUB 70 club. The 007, it feels tremendous.

You talked me into it.

they are really nice clubs, feel good and one of the more attractive cavity backs out there. 

 

I really want to use them but hitting my 0317 blades in the real world is just too appealing for me, especially the extra 2 degrees of launch i get with the Elevate Tours. 

 

eh....I feel bad. Cause the Sub70's are really legit clubs

Tough call those are super nice too. I think you'll be really happy with the Sub70s though. 

 

For me it just came down to the shaft pairing as much as anything

Just bought the 699 Utility Pro v.1 19.5° in satin. Very excited to put this in the bag and swap out my 5 wood. Even with the slight shaft upgrade to the ProjectX HZRDUS RDX Black 90, the whole thing was still only $100.

I take no responsibility in others purchases.

I've always thought about the TA iii irons.  They look good and sound like they have some good tech in them.  Its hard to find reviews other than 1 or 2 and a few comments here and there.  All that I have seen have been pretty positive. 

[stuman74]

Shout-out to Cody at Sub 70 for coordinating getting my 699 set checked and adjusted this week.  Played today and the irons all hit excellent!  Sand wedge was hit or miss, but that's 100% due to user error 😉

[ShakeyT]

The new 699s/699 Pros are a step back in the looks dept. IMO. I'm sure they perform great, but looks matter when there are so many good choices out there.

How are they a step back in looks at address? They seem identical to the old 699s.

I never mentioned "at address". In my opinion, I don't care for the look of the new version. 

If you like the way the look, good for you.

[stuman74]

I was cleaning up both sets of my v1 699's today.  Identical sets 5-P,A, but one has stiff shafts and the other has regular flex.

 

My regular 5i struck me as looking thinner on the sole for some reason.  Compared a bit side by side to the stiff 5i.  Do they look different to you as well or is it me?  Like, one has a more rounded toe and the other a bit more pointy.  I do not own a 699 Pro to compare, but I'm almost wondering, is one of them mis-marked?

A pic of the toe end should show the difference more than anything.

Has there been any additional feedback on the TAiii wedges? Was thinking of picking up a set but at $150 a pop plus tax it’s right up there with the big boys…

I cannot speak to their wedges, but their irons are made from a softer steel that mars easier. My Sub70 forged irons had more markings after 30 rounds than my Srixon 965's had after 50.

 

That being said, their wedges have a nice feel and spin well and are a little on the heavier side, which I like. I don't think you'll notice much difference aside from saving the $30 from the SM9 (which it really feels like).

Or could the steel venus easier?

I'm not sure what you are asking.

It's a joke based on mars - impairs the appearance and Mars - 4th planet, follows Earth.  Venus is the preceding planet.

 

I found it astronomically humorous.

So, I shouldn't be posting under the night sky? I'm not in the right headspace for a good joke.

 

Now, do I change it in shame or let it ride?

Has anyone tried the center shafted putter? Ive always been interested in one

[KGrinols]

Anyone still using the 949x Hybrid?  Saw it's impressive results in the Most Wanted 22, and then again in Today's Golfer 23.

Never had a Sub70 club, just curious if they ended up sticking around in your bag?

Distance isn't top priority or I'd look at the Stealth, but accuracy and forgiveness are.  Sub70, Ping G430, and Tour Edge X722 seem to be the top 3 for that category no matter where you look\read\watch.

 

I don't see any 949x on the BST, so I'm assuming that's a pretty good indicator.  Just thought I'd check in for any feedback, for longevity of how this club has stood the rest of time.

 

Thanks.

 

[Mike_Honcho]

trade in has gone through...now it's time to pick the set.  i'm thinking triple combo in the 659's

[J_Tizzle]

Just got the last version of the 699 pro utility in 22* with a Steelfiber 95.  Finally got it to the range today and was VERY impressed.  Didn't know for sure about the look, but a bunch of shots that all went left to right was quickly all I needed to see to fall in love with the club.  

 

I might honestly be looking at the hybrids and fairways after how impressed I was with the driving iron.  Plus with the $45 upgraded shaft it was $130...

I have the hybrid and fairway wood. Both are excellent clubs. If you’re interested their demo program is very easy to use.
