Minhjn's WITB - Updated: August 4, 2010 NEW PICTURES

Callaway X-Protos, Ping, Scratch Wedges, Scotty Cameron

Figured it was about time that I posted one of these threads.

A little about me. I'm a 23 year old graduate school student. I was a former college tennis player for Oklahoma State University before injuries derailed my college career. I've played golf since I was about 14, but really started to get serious and enjoy the game last year and got my index to around 4 or so.

Enough about me, on to the bag!

First, some shots of the full bag. Sorry, I suck at taking photos.

Panda on my driver cause I'm an Asian-American, and knit covers were made by Ju Ju McCall. A great lady who does great custom covers. She has a cult following on this board.

thanks. it wasn't easy. had to go used on a few things

[cmilz99]

i fell ya on the used thing. I am in High School and have had to pay for all the stuff in my bag myself. (except for the actual bag, haha). That is a sick setup though. Love the Irons/ Wedges.

[SALUKI LEFTY]

Nice setup and good pic's. Those headcovers are sweet looking and nice job on the custom work (paintfill on 60's and white furrules).

yea, graduate in may though

[Twiggy]

Nice set-up. Love that black Scotty.

Where'd you get those Orange headcovers? I've been looking for a set just like that to match my Orange/Black/White bag.

[TheHusky]

the white paintfill is very nice with the ferrules. I see what looks to be a big brother paddle hanging on your door haha, reminds me of my college days

I bought them from a lady in california named Ju Ju McCall. She just does them from home through e-mail. She does really great work. It's custom ordered so you really can get any design or colors you want. her email is [email protected]

here is the thread about her where you can see a lot of the covers she made for a lot of the WRX guys

that's some lofty praise, appreciate the kind words, and yes, huge win, must win. i was at that game and it was a little too exciting for my tastes

[OK_Golf]

Cool bag.

I'm a Baylor guy, so I hated to see you guys win this weekend, but just glad you beat OU in Stillwater.

... is there a student rate for Karsten Creek? What is it? Do you think its worth $300 to play?

[jgc9512ss]

Real good looking bag man.

i see, a fellow big 12 guy. we needed that win more than y'all did, since baylor's RPI is so high. our next part of the schedule is murder though.

URI's win over OSU @ Mohegan Sun earlier in the year is looking better and better with every win you guys pick up. How do you like the Kombi thus far? I was considering picking one up.

i know. i thought that was a game we could steal on the road, but we were too young back then. osu is the youngest team in the big 12 and hopefully they are just finding their rhythm.

about the kombi, i like it bunches. i like large sized mallets, as i used to play the spider and the mezza monza from TM. it's my first foray into Scotty's and i'm quite happy. the feel is really good off the face. i've always used backweights in the grips on putters and it feels really good in this putter, helps keep my hands quiet.

if you enjoy putting with a mallet, i'd definitely look into getting a kombi, it's one of the better ones on the market right now.

[minhjn]

just bought a new i-mix head. will update the thread when it gets here with pictures. also, i'm implementing a self-imposed ban on BST forum after this latest impulse buy. it's what is best for me

[minhjn]

what do you do when you have an extra I-mix shaft laying around....easy, you buy another i-mix head!!!

original post updated with a picture of the FT-9.

[minhjn]

new scratch lob wedge

[pdaero]

Love the bag! As far as the Voodoo for Titleist shafts go, it's only the driver that plays soft.

How do you like the Proto irons? For ever, I never thought I could be a Callaway player (not traditional enough clubs), but they have really changed me with these irons.

What does the NVS 105 hybrid play like? If I do end up getting a 21* hybrid, it would be something I would look at.

I've heard great things about the Scratch wedges!
