Scratch Golf Bananza.. Thanks to Chris at Pure Impact Golf studio

July 17, 2012 update: Just added pictures of the wedges I had coming from months back. Had them made in tribute to my boys, with there birthdates, initials, and favorite superhero stamped on as well as paint fill matching the superheros. The swing has finally came around, as well as putting. only shot I am really struggling with is the 100yard shot, 10-90 yards is great, and 110 and beyond also is great but the the 100 yard shot is trouble at the moment. which is really bad because all my buddies play from the whites so with me cranking my drives Im always at 90-110 yards it seems like.





Huge thanks you to Chris at PURE IMPACT GOLF STUDIO, if you live in Michigan make an appointment, hes a great club fitter and person. The fitting was a real game changer especially with the driver. I am consistently cranking my drive 270yards. which is fantastic as I haven't drove the ball that far since my first year of playing. Granted swing fixes improved this also but I was only reaching 240yards on really solid drives with my old machspeed black I think the average was 220yards =/ Thanks Again Chris.

Digging the irons!

[garcia51694]

How do you like those irons?

[Shaank0]

I love them. They have a nice feel to them and have a lot more forgiveness then i thought they would have.

[tigerfan23]

The VR Splits are some of the best looking irons in the bag.

[Shaank0]

The irons are beautiful i kind of want to get a 1/16 stamp and stamp my initials on my irons just for a personal look. I didn't know if it would be possible the head is very thin but i saw Paul Caseys clubs has his initials on them

[UNCC Golf#1]

How are those irons? I am thinking of getting some soon?

[Shaank0]

I love them. I am able to work the ball with them easily and they are very forgiving for shot outside the sweet spot. if you Google Reviews for the VR splits you will not find one bad thing said about them.

I just got them fitted to me and cannot wait to get out on the field with them but for now i am stuck at the driving range dome due to winter =/ .

Updates to current bag

[Señor Rafa]

I take it you don't like Nike golf clubs much?

lol, great setup and workshop you've got there. I'm a fan of Nike's stuff too, they really do make some great clubs... especially their irons and wedges. The Method putter looks great too, I need to try it out soon.

[elchene]

Great setup! Is that lie/loft machine bolted to the table?

[TaylorMadeGolfer21]

hey great set up! i really like those irons, and the red and black ferrules to match the heads and grips are a great idea, very eye pleasing!

[/quote]

Yes it is bolted to the table, but i have encountered a problem as i have it about 2 inches away from the side which I cant get the bending bar to bend much without hitting the edge of the table so I might be buying the actual stand it is supposed to be on.

Bump bump
Updated 8/18/2011 with all my scratch clubs.

[CANgolf]

[TheMackDaddy]

Are those irons custom..? I know nothing about scratch but they look so cool!

[villa]

Blasphemy!

[kekoa]

To each his own, but use those black irons. They are too sweet not to.

[Shaank0]

They get played on the course for sure.

[DigDugDig]

Those irons and wedges are too sexy for this shirt...so sexy it hurts.

[Shaank0]

Hit the R9 with the axivcore blue today on the range. boy oh boy is it nice.

[jbrunone]

wow those irons are amazing! Enough said

[hunter24]

Stunning.

[Xpicc19]

those are awesome irons! very nice!

[williamo]

Nicest set of irons I have seen for a long time. Good luck and play well with them.. If you decide not to keep them send me a message ASAP!

[PaulFitz]

Those irons.... are the most incredible things I've ever seen!!!

[mljones99]

If those irons were satin I would have to say they would be the coolest irons I have ever seen. not a fan of the black but still cool.

[PutterHo]

OMG !!! ... yeah I said it, those D-Dubs warrant it ... I love them. I love them a lot. Black ice and tiffany's blue ..... just yummy.

[Shaank0]

Thanks for the comments. These clubs really are a dream to have. I am reworking my swing towards S&T method, getting better and better Im hoping to break 80 before the season is over. It possible if I can stay focused on the course.

[GatorNate11]

Wow, the offset on those irons, fantastic.
