How old are your driver, fairway woods and hybrids? Latest not always the best.

Driver - TM M3 440cc - 2018

3w - TM RBZ - 2012

3h - TM RBZ - 2012

Have tried other 3w and 3h and can't find anything to knock these out of the bag. Driver is too new to try anything else yet. I'll let you guys get the new knocked off of my next driver first. Thanks!

My G400 woods are not going anywhere. Misses with hybrids are too punishing so I don’t play them....G410 long irons are forgiving enough for my game.

Have tried new stuff a lot specially Ping model of drivers and fairways -- and most of the taylormade M series drivers. I currently play a 2007 model K15 driver and fairway woods in competition - I should note the K15 have late model shafts in them. I own a TM M6 driver which is very nice and almost as good as the K15 . I wish I could same the same for the Ping drivers but the Turbulators are an eyesore.

For Irons -just the opposite - I play the new Mizuno MP-20 MB including the wedges. so you mights say my bag is a mix of new and very old.

should also mention I have five K-15 Drivers with different shafts - the course I play dictates which shaft gets played between three of them.

My entire bag is getting long in the tooth. That's not unusual irons always take me a long time to replace, however in the past drivers have had a short shelf life in my bag, but that has not been the case recently.

Driver: Callaway Epic This driver has been a total fluke. I had no intention of buying but it did well during a fitting for a Ping G400LST so I purchased both. The Ping was the bag staple until last fall, however the more I tinkered with the Epic the better it got and I am now driving the ball better than I ever have, so to keep the success flowing I have refused to test or hit another driver.

3 Wood Titleist 915: This is just so solid I can't get myself to make a change

Hybrid Titleist 91-HD back in the bag after a very short failed experiment.

I am very content with the bags performance at this time, rounds have been few this early 2020 with the winter we have had in Colorado, but each round out the bag has been spot on.

My driver is a 2018 TaylorMade M3 440. I like the slightly more compact profile and it flat out performs for me.

My only fairway wood is a Mizuno MP-001 4 wood. I think these came out in 2004. Again, more compact profile versus most of today's fairway woods.

I just put a Titleist 818H1 19° hybrid in the bag to replace my trusty Cleveland Halo. I still have the 22° Halo in the bag. These Halo hybrids came out in 2007.

I keep trying out newer fairway woods and hybrids, but end up going back to my tried and true.

My driver is negative 5 days old. I haven't received it yet. When Srixon dropped the price on woods I ordered a new driver.

I ordered a new 3w only 2 weeks ago from Srixon, if only I knew they were going to drop the price!

Driver - Callaway Epic Flash 10.5* Mitsubishi Tensei Pro White 50

4w - Callaway Epic Flash 5w turned down to 17* PX Even Flow Blue 75 (backup is Callaway Steelhead 4+ DGX100 Lite)

7w - Callaway Steelhead 20* DGX100 Lite

9w - Callaway Steelhead 24* DGX100 Lite

Callaway Mavrik Max 10.5* Aldila Rogue White 130 MSI 60 arriving Friday, so driver slot may be replaced.

Original Callaway Steelhead 4+ has been in and out of the bag for more than 15 years. The 7w and 9w have been pretty much in the bag permanently since I bought them new when they were first released back in the late 90’s. I have tried most every hybrid and fairway in the hopes of replacing them but they just work for my swing so i stopped trying to replace them and will continue to keep them in the bag until they fall apart or I can’t swing them anymore

Driver - G400 2017

Fairways - TM M6 #3 2019 and Cobra King Ltd #5 2015

Hybrid - Titleist TS2 2019

 

No plans to update the fairways or the hybrid for at least 3 years. That may of course change as I’m a ho. May look at a new driver when Ping release in September. May not though, will depend on how the coronavirus outbreak screws up my business revenues.

I am still playing my Mizuno JPX-900 Driver and 3 wood (from 2016). Continue to absolutely love both. Every now and then I think about hunting down one of the hybrids just to complete the set.
