I've got a $25 SMT gift card good on purchses of $50 or more.

[yoonie]

I'd love that SMT gift card- I've been eyeing one of their gloves for a few months now. I wasn't aware that they sold anything directly tho, at least not from their website.

 

In exchange, I have a couple of things to put up, but unfortunately would only be able to send one out (broke student, shipping fees...).

 

I can get a comprehensive list together when I get home, but for now I have:

 

a driver shaft, the name of which I suddenly can't remember- supposedly very very tip stiff for low launch and low spin, S flex but plays more like an x (hearsay, since I haven't actually used it). I think it's a vector 65g

 

big bertha 3,5,7 woods (the old, old big berthas) with the stock shafts in R flex. Actually, these are GREAT heads, and I've been thinking about reshafting them for a while. the 7 wood is super easy to hit-easier than any hybrid I've ever hit (and I'm a very good long iron player), while the 3 and 5 wood have mid trajectories and surprising forgiveness considering their workability.

 

a few other things I've forgotten, to be added later...

[mac94]

Yoonie, PM me your mailing addy and I'll send you the SMT card. Glad you can use it.

[jcbhurst]

Ill take the Big Bertha Fairway Woods.

My father loved the original driver, and is in need of fairway woods.

Itll be a nice surprise for him.

 

 

Next Up:

I have a Taylor Made Rescue 18* with the Bubble Shaft in 90-S.

PM Me with an address.

[NANDOVEGA]

What a great topic, a truly powerful idea, I am new to golfwrx and have so far been greatly impressed with everyone here. I think I may have a putter or something to put up, look for a post soon!

[mac94]

The SMT gift card is still available. Yoonie never claimed it.

[yoonie]

sorry about that, been a hectic few weeks- still available? i'm pming you my info now

[ahklimchuk]

Ive got a PING i3 driver:

9*

x-stiff STEEL shaft

 

anyone want to claim it, i know its old-school but still can do some good.

 

(PM me if you want)

 

Headcover comes with it btw.

[1day2day]

Uk guys i have a dozen nike platinum balls, let me know who wants them swaps!!!!!

[jlong1234]

Guys this is a great topic. I just stumbled into it and am truly impressed. Ok here goes, I've got a Nike Blue Chip Mallet putter with headcover. I've had it for several years but it hasn't seen much action. I saw it for sale when it first came out and thought I needed a mallet. I was wrong. It has the blue aluminum(?) insert and puts a great roll on the ball, just doesn't fit my eye. I'll also throw in a round of golf to any member coming through Memphis this Spring. PM me for either or both. I'll need to go check my collection of other stuff that I will be more than happy to send out. We need to keep this thread alive.

[jlong1234]

Putter is gone.

[markheardjr]

Who took the putter, they are supposed to offer something up now.

[mac94]

I took the putter as I'd already offered several things on here, including the SMT gift card to yoonie, without selecting anything.

[surfanimal]

I know it's not much, but I've got a LH golfers Footjoy weathersof (glove is for rh) in white, brand new, just without the plastic pouch it came in. That and a few practice balls from todays round.

[Dan_Noonan]

Cleaning out the basement. I've got 2 vokey wedges free to good home: black nickle in 52 and 56 degree, each are bent one degree strong (so 51 and 55 degree). These saw very little use and the grooves are in real good shape. I've also got a set of CG10s in 50 and 54 degree (black) that I'll let go. These also are in really good shape.

[mac94]

Sweet! I'll take them! PM sent. I'll add something after I take a look.

[mac94]

OK, I have an uncut set of 8 True Temper Steel shafts, .370 tip.

[Dan_Noonan]

Wedges are gone. Vokeys to Oaks and Clevelands to mac94.

[Oaks]

I have Slazenger Kirk Currie LSP1(I think) Putter in excellent shape...

Callie partially because I always wanted to play an anser style head, but mainly because my youngest daughter's name is Callie.

 

 

Keep this thread going, folks...this is what it's about!!

 

 

You choose equipment based on the names of your children? Good thing for you, you don't have a child named Richard. :-)

No, read it again. I always wanted to play that style head putter AND it has the name. Also, I believe if you can putt, it doesn't matter what's in your hand. I've only had 3 real putters in my life (not including what was part of my first set in the 70's): An original Acushnet Bullseye flange that I still use, a Ray Cook heel shafted flange blade similar to an 8802, and the Callie. I've tried dozens of putters and nothing excites me enough to change. I bought the Ray Cook because I wanted that style head and it was cheap. I'll always keep the Callie even if I go back to the others. Also, if YES! comes out with one named after my other daughter, I will have one no matter what type head it has and I will use it.

 

If you ever have kids, hopefully they'll mean enough to you that you have similar feelings.

 

No, I don't have a child named Richard. But, I have met you, now. :cheesy:

I buy my clubs based on how they fit my game, not the name on the shaft! To do otherwise seems like a waste of money and just plain shallow. But if you want to buy clubs with the name of your kids on it, be my guest. Nothing shows your love for someone like frivlous spending.

 

Your Friend Richard.

[Veritas]

Can we please not turn the pay it forward thread into a back and forth argument.

[Spectrums]

Wow WestCoastGolfer, that is completely unnecessary! Why bash someone over the NAME OF A CLUB? Get over it!

 

Alright, let's all get back on topic.

[t.bahama]

I've got two sleeves of Nike ONE Platinum balls, fist person to PM me gets them for free, I use Titleist NXT Tours. Granted, it may take me a week to remember to mail them, but you will get them free and postage paid.

[Sesh]

Ive got a pair of footjoy ecomforts white and brown saddle size 11 never worn. Get em know I'll be in the states till may. shoot me a PM ;)

[t.bahama]

I also have three Tommy Armour Tour Players Edition men's left handed Med-LG gloves, these are cabretta not synthetic, feel great just one size too large for me.

 

I also have a pair of Nike SP-4 black and white saddle shoes that I got at a tournament and will never wear as I hate black shoes. I will probably remove the spikes as I will use those but the shoes are free for the asking as are the gloves.

 

Just PM me if you would like either of these free and postage paid.

 

Shoes are men's 11.5, sorry, guess I should have included that originally.

[t.bahama]
