What driver and fairway are you gaming this year?

Recommended Posts

After a recent driver battle SIM2 has replaced the original SIM.

No fairway woods for me though, I am hit and miss with them so 1 iron is a better option that helps keep the big numbers off the scorecard 

Driver = Callaway Smoke-Ai Max-D 

3 wood = Callaway Smoke-Ai Max HL

3 Hybrid = Tour Edge Exotics C722
Irons = 4-PW Miura KM 700
Gap Wedge = Miura HB 50*

Sand Wedge = Taylormade MG2 56*

Putter = LAB DF3

Ball = TP5x pix

Taylormade tour issue M4 set to 8* and upright. Ventus black 6x 45”. Have a Sim2 showing up in 2 weeks on warranty replacement.

 

ts3 18* set at A1. I hit this thing just as long as a standard 3w. Ventus black 8x 42.5”. Might try to get into a sim 5w or a Mizuno stz 5w. We will see. Don’t hit the fairway much anyway

Having a tough time displacing the G400Max. Other than one odd round (where I ended up jacking my back and bailed after 6 holes), I'm typically 10-11 fairways a round. F9 3W at 15.5* stays as well as we have a lot of wind and I can actually hit it off the deck. Added a RadSpeed 7W recently, sorting out how that gaps with 3H and 5i.

I asked everyone for gift cards or cash to get a new driver last Christmas/birthday, put it all together and got fitted. One change I am going to make is to cut it down to 45". I wanted to try it at 45.5" but I think I can be just a little more consistent contact wise if I was at 45"

 

The 3 wood I got a few years ago barely used and I love it. I almost never use it off the fairway simply because I don't play golf courses that are very long, but this thing is a cannon and I love the look/feel of it. Might look into something new this coming winter, but am in no rush to replace it

 

Play well!

Um...no.  You have an oddly specific definition of boring which is both interesting and mildly creepy...

- G410 LST 10.5* w/ Diamana D+ Plus Limited 60 TX

- Nike VRS Covert 2.0 (bonded head) 15* w/ OG Flowerband Whiteboard 70 X

- Titleist 910 19* w/ OG Flowerband Whiteboard 70 S (I was piecing these together as a worked at a golf store so the don't match but I can hit this thing 225 consistently and a mile in the air if need be)

 

Have my trusty SLDR 12* turned down to 10.5* w/ AD DI 6S tipped on deck if the G 410 acts up

Not even thinking of replacing the G Max 400. The Ping G 425 5 wood will be here today to replace the Epic Max 5 wood. The epic Max is easily the longest fairway wood I can remember, but not that forgiving for me off the deck. I use a 5 wood because of my driver distance, so I have to rely on it a lot. If the G 425 5 wood does the job I expect it to, then a similar 7 wood will be next. My bag will mostly be Ping G 425 soon.

 

Bag is in overhaul mode
