Ahh haa it past the waggle test! Sounds like you got a keeper.

Jensen, to clean up those white ferrules, all I would do is buy a bottle of Bleche-Wite. Its for cleaning car tires, but works wonders on anything white. Spray it a few times in a towel and wipe those puppies down, they will look good as new. I've cleaned up many RBZ and R11/1 clubs head with this same method!

Thanks for the tip! I don't think it will bother me much. Once the season starts my clubs are dirty every day.

[JJensen]

Can't believe I'm saying this. Big changes (or lack of) coming up. I'm playing what I have through the rest of this season unless something huge comes from my fitting next Saturday. No more Hoing. Bag will be what's on the first page and that's it! Time to make a commitment to my game and stop messing around!

[GC70]

Good for you J!
I have a few questions for you.
1 what's the fitting for?
2 when does your season end?
3 did mom find out about all the hoing?

1. Going to put my D3/KB against the SLDR 430 and whatever else.
2. 2 months after the Titleist 915 line comes out
3. Not sure. She doesn't talk about it but probably.

How is the Oban Black?

I haven't hit it yet! Nearest sim is 1 hour away and I have worked all week. I'll be heading down to Minneapolis for a driver fitting this Saturday so we'll see how it goes. From Swinging in the garage/driveway it feels VERY stable but still has a decent amount of feel. To me it feels a little better than the 7.2 TS but not as good as the 7.3.

[scratchswinger]

Let me know how it goes, I have a Black 85x coming for my SLDR 3w.

I saw that! That should be a sick combo!

[scratchswinger]

Good numbers... Glad you like the shaft. Would love to see what your numbers were with a 430.

[marshallbarnes]

Closest was the 430 10.5 with a Speeder 757x. Numbers were nearly identical with slightly lower ball speeds. (158-160)

18* Hd
KBS Tour X (yup steel)
40.5"
D3 SW

[JJensen]

Woah. Not sure where my post with fitting numbers went.
913D3 8.5 - Kiyoshi Black 75 05
SS 109-110
BS 160-163
Launch 12-13
Spin 2550-2780

Pretty much what I already have is the best fit for me. I guess I'm a good Ho.

Goes to show different strokes for different folks.

Have you tried an Oban Black in a fairway?

I have not. I wanted to try one but they didn't have it.

2nd Swing in Minneapolis

[JJensen]

Oh forgot one thing.
I was very surprised when I hit the 15* Fd 5 yards farther on a higher trajectory than my 13.5 F. I'm very excited to get out on the course with these two for some more testing.

[simple36]

Liking that FD eh? What shaft is in there?

Just my Blueboard. But I am going to get something to throw in there. Maybe a TW 84 just so I don't have to swap the heads if I want to change.

Unexpected purchase today...

Super LS 15* with an AD-DI 7x

All I can say is WOW... I can't wait to get this thing on the course... It might need to go to continental for a blackening though.

Yea.... About that.....

J- you are obviously a solid player who loves gear, nothing wrong with liking new stuff, but what do you hope to accomplish with all the changes? Not intended as disrespectful in any manner, just seem like a great guy who is limiting his ability to progress by changing, want to see you reach any goals you have in game and wish you the best.

It's called winter!!!! Haha I won't set my bag until I have a chance to try everything on course then it stays for the summer and college season.

As for the super LS... The 910 is less forgiving and I didn't like the way the Fd set up. I had a 15* f and didn't like that either. I wanted something with more loft but similar distance and this fit the bill.

The 13.5 is great off the tee, but can be a little hard to elevate from a slightly imperfect lie

[Mitchell]

Moved from NC to HI last May, what is this winter of which you speak?
Fairway change could be logical, just see a lot of young players that already hit it fairly long go looking for distance through equipment and shaft changes when not needed, good luck with your season.
