Topic: Golf Equipment / PGF Status PWT Clubs

Hi Grant,

I have used PGF Status oversize irons for a number of years and found them to be a very efficient club. Nothing flashy about them and not as well recognized as other high profile brands but in future you won't be able to blame the clubs for bad scores in future.

Topic: Golf Equipment / shaft suggestions ??

the EI70 Xflex is decently low torque, however it still remains its feel
if you like boardy, get a cheapo UST profoce 75 Xstiff
or maybe if you really want just go w/ a Rifle 6.0 tipped or X100 tipped

Topic: Golf Equipment / The cost of golf!

Thank god for ebaY, if we didnt have ebay we would all have to buy retail, and keep trading stuff in for ridiculously low prices. That would suck.

Golf has always been expensive, i was watching footy when Dustin Fletchers teeth got knocked out, one of the commentators said "there are more doctors than on a golf course".

So i suppose equipment makers are trying to cash in on their 'intended' customers.

Topic: Golf Equipment / $1000 to spend - what do you buy?

keep an eye on ebay by some clubs from usa sell them in aus , eg. some adams fairway woods , some cheap irons etc flog em of for a profit always someone out there who'll buy new stuff, wait until you've doublred your $ and then bhave some fun...

Topic: Golf Equipment / Bulls Eye Putter.

Cleveland have some dunno how much the cost though.
Other wise just get the Titleist copper one, fairly cheap

Topic: Golf Equipment / shaft suggestions ??

Hi, after suggestions for shafts, normally play a cobra 370 with a true temper EI-70 II X flex. Picked up a TM 320 with a fujikura 757 stiff, and feels to soft for me. I don't know how fast I swing but good drives average 250-265m, so I don't consider myself exceptionally long at all, but I just don't like to feel the shaft wobble at all. With this new driver, I was thinking of maybe something a little lighter? the current shaft I'm playing is 75 g ????????

Topic: Golf Equipment / Mizuno Magic

ive seen pics of a mp 27/30 and 37 combo. Sweet as- they also come in a cool satin finish. Wish i had some

Topic: Golf Equipment / TaylorMade Got A Lot Of Underserved Credit For The Open

Adidas has way too much money

Think about NIKE golf, have they really brought out any spectacular product?
maybe the best is the ignite and slingshot
but those are also imo mediaocre products

Topic: Golf Equipment / Rifle 6.0 Shafts.

I could quite possibly have tried almost all shafts before I purchased my irons. I ended up with Rifle Lite 5.5 and they play firm in my opinion. The regular 5.5's probably played a fraction stiffer, possibly attributed to being slightly heavier reducing club head speed in my case.
I tried the 5.0(reg) and 6.0(stiff) but the 5.5 gave me the ball flight and forgiveness I was after.

Tony, I have always been interested in the design of courses. I have sat at home at drawn some holes that interest me, but where would you start if your going to design a new course from scratch?
