NFT: BBi golfer what's in your bag right now? Anything new ?

Waiting on new JPX 921s to come in. Highly considering the Saks Parente 54 putter.
Only played 54 holes so far this year but being in the ADK makes it tough early

Adirondacks

9 deg turned down to 8.25 deg.

Was fitted and absolutely not what I thought I would get. Also weird(to me) that the shaft is 67 gr as the 50 gram shafts just did not work at all.

Added 20 to 25 yards to drives...

Never been fitted and thinking about doing it. To get fitted did people go to bigger chain places or more local places?

I've done both. Golf Galaxy I believe for my irons 4 years ago.
Local fitter(where a pro I play with goes) for the driver and three wood.
The local was much better.

He tinkered with the grips in order to get them quicker because there is a worldwide grip shortage right now in the golf equipment world. If he stuck with the standard grips, which are sweet, it’s a 6-8 week wait for delivery.

Definitely give it a try...I'm making more putts in the last 3 months than I ever have. Might just be that I love how it looks?

Great experience and seeing all the numbers wasn't something a cared to see (old clubs Mizzy MP-60, rifle 6.0), but these new sticks got me 12 more yds and lower ball flight (Mizzy MP-20 MMC, ProjX LZ 6.5, align grips). Really happy with everything.....BUT

I'm not surprised to hear another mention delays with grips, components, etc... It normally shouldn't take a month to complete this process...f'ing covid

Our pro has Mizuno. I hit them and they are like butter my next set will be Mizuno irons, I agree on using a fitter.. worth the money

the new P770 irons. They're smooth as butter. I will say: they are 'traditional lofts' so I lost about a half club in distance but that's nominal.

You should be able to get them delofted 2 degrees to get that back.

Yes it’s a huge problem right now. We are seeing these companies quote us months for custom club orders now instead of weeks. There’s a huge grip and shaft shortage, plus heads are tough right now as well for some of the manufacturers. Very frustrating because the golf business is booming.

Yeah this was my concern when I ordered. My fitter was essentially saying the JPX heads could be delayed or the kbs tour shafts. But unfortunately it would definitely be delayed. He quoted me 6-8 weeks. I’m over 4 now

My pro re gapped me I was 50 , 56, 60. She changed me to 50, 54, 60.. I refused to give up the 60. If you haven't tried the CBX , hit them very forgiving.

couple years now. Very unlike me but I perform great with them and if it ain't broke, why fix it? I'm quite proud I haven't splurged on new clubs lol (like the TM SIM2, such an awesome looking club).

Taylormade M4 Driver
Cobra F9 3 Wood
Cleveland Launcher 3 Hybrid
Ping G Irons (4-PW)
Callaway Mack Daddy's 54/60
Scotty Cameron Newport 2 Putter

i just bought the head and put it on my old shaft. Its the 9 degree and i might have to dial it down. Def longer and more forgiving than my M1

My best purchase, late last season, was the SIK putter.

when I got a fitting at True Spec in NYC.

Putter is new this year

what did you play before the Evnroll? Im definately looking at putters now, I hit far more GIR than ever, but my putting is spotty. I use an Odessey 2 ball mallet

I was gifted a beautiful Scotty Cameron Flowback putter and it’s new in my bag. Rolls great.

But my favorite “new” club this season is my 10+ year old Cleveland Niblick which has found its way back into my bag after sitting in the closet forever. I forgot how much I love this club, how easy it is to use, and I have been using it from about 75yds and in. I really enjoy using one club for scoring work. I havent taken my pitching wedge out really this season except for one very tall flop shot from below an elevated green and over a large bunker. I’ve been avoiding traps better than the last few years going back to the chipper.

i had the original X forged -- i updated the bag
Taylor Made 770s 3-PW
Vokey 52 and 58
new Ping Driver- lower spin than the others to control my erratic misses better

Went to Club Champion in July of 2020 and got fitted for an upgrade. Ended up with a G410 with a Paderson fairway shaft. It's amazing how much lower my dispersion is, and despite cutting the shaft down 1.5" it's noticeably longer in live fire as predicted by the Trackman data.

It was a very close call between the G410 and the Mavrik, incidentally.

Going back in a few weeks to dial-in the gaps btw 5i and longest fairway wood.

what's holding back my game. Unfortunately, it's me.
