And for what it is worth, I’ve been out since early Feb.  Not only did I change clubs in my bag, I switched sides of the stupid ball completely, lol!  More on that later.

Haha, I feel like if you switch to playing with the other hand you should get an exception...

I agree!  I think I should petition the rules committee on this one.......

I think the rules committee would agree that if your left handed set is exactly the same as your right handed set was you get a pass.

I think I made it through 2020...well, survived a crap year, but my golf bag stayed the same.  2021, I already lost.  Ordered g425, LST DR, 5wd max and 7 wd max...and refreshed my wedges.   Don't even have them yet and I already lost.  All same brand, shafts and style...but all new.  

 

I'll continue to live vicariously through 2020, which most of us would rather forget.

The time should be moved to March 15 for this. When does someone post a handicap, it is suppose too be in the spring, not winter. So I am going to wait till 15 March 21, and ask others to rock the ship and do the same. Hopefully what is in the signature will be it.

Well, today I played my 35th round of the year and I was actually out about a month ago when I switched putters for a couple of rounds.  LOL I also played one of my old drivers for a couple of rounds recently.  Wait 'til next year!

I'm with Platgof.....the season in RI resumes on 4/1, so by 3/15 my bag will finally be set for the season.

[Xander_Reigns]

Only holdovers from last year are my Tour Rat and my trusty 5 wood!

 

SM8’s are on order, but will be part of the family soon enough...

 

I am a Titleist Ho for sure:

 

TSi3 9* (C1 setting) / Tensei CK Pro White 70TX

 

915 fd 18* (D1 setting) / Tensei CK Pro White 80TX

 

U500 3i / MMT 105TX

 

T100 4i-9i / DG Tour Issue X7

 

Vokey SM8 46F, 52F, 56F, 60D / Tour Issue Black Onyx S400

 

Scotty Cameron Tour Rat Proto

 

Had to hang up the 680’s as I am not good enough to hit them anymore. Sad day.

nope. 1/1. Actually, it starts before your first round, whenever that is. Do Floridian’s have to show a bit more restraint by positing in early Jan while other post mid march? Why yes, of course, but that’s the price paid for getting to play early. Rules are rules. 

[WarEagleGolf]

I even bought new headcovers for the woods....and I don't even have them yet...

 

The horror!  Also waiting for the new ping irons...if they are S/iBlade/i500 replacement...I'm in!

In texas....haven't played in the last couple weeks....wtf was all that anyway, keep your s*** weather Wisconsin/MN/MI.  

 

But, I've probably got 10-15 rounds in this year anyway.  Still currently using same equipment.  So, technically still in...but the moment those shiny new clubs hit my doorstep, they're going in the bag.

Sorry to hear about the plight of your great state. Snow in the south is viewed all fun and games until 60 people in one county die. I hope you’ve been only modestly effected. 

[tannyhoban]

Even though I'm out this is the plan. Bwahaha

[b.mattay]

One question: can you designate one substitute spot? I want to play a 7 wood again and would stick with that setup in almost all conditions. However, it's would be insane to not switch that for a 2 iron when the winds are 40mph+.

[Hawkeye77]

Like Elaine Benes Kennedy Junior, I’m out!

 

Ordered new zx7s today, but they may not arrive for weeks so maybe I’m still technically in. ✌️

And... I'm out lol. Ordered a JPX 921 Hot Metal Pro 4 and 5 irons to swap out with my 4-5 iron once I did a distance gap test and don't hit either much better than my 6. It was a good run this year lads and laddies!

I don’t change clubs often so I’m in...

 

Ping G30 driver

Ping G15 17* and 20* hybrids 

Ping G20 4-pw, uw, and sw 

Ping tour 60* lw 

Ping Redwood Zing 

 

only equipment I’m thinking of changing would be bag and head covers 

What they meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time I tried so hard and fought so hard but in the end, it doesn’t even matter...

 

hello G30 irons 😂

[JAM01]

I’m out, Ping G410 Driver, 3 Wood, 3 Hybrid and 5-PW replaced by G425 of the same. So far, the 3 Wood and Hybrid are a serious performance upgrade for me. 

[lefthack]

I am really happy with my bag right now. It's not set, tough. But once it is, it might be for a while. 

[BallerNate]

Welp, I lost the challenge already, Lol!

 

Got out to play 2 rounds this week and got a fitting, and it turns out I’m going to “have to” replace my Driver, 3W, and irons, Lol!

 

I really don’t think I’ll always be a club ho, and I’m hoping my bag is going to stabilize soon. All this flipping of clubs is kind of taking over my life! 😉

[jmagri78]

@BallerNateWhat D/3W and irons did you end up going with? I know you were considering Sub70 products

Still TBD. Got fitted for the Srixon ZX5 irons w/ PX LS shafts, but it’s a 4-6 week wait time ordering from the U.S. and potentially 2-4 weeks in Canada, so not sure I want to wait that long.

 

For the Driver and 3W I’m totally wide open. Like the Sub 70 939X 3-Wood, so just waiting to confirm that order, but no idea what I’m going to do on the Driver.

[jmagri78]

@BallerNateYeah, that 939X 3 wood is sweet and for $149 Us, you cannot beat it, unfortunately they don't have that club in LH or I would have ordered it.
