Here’s what our members have been saying in the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- trex858: “0.7 handicap. Srixon z785 3-PW with UST Mamiya prototype 110 f5 X graphite shafts. Best shafts I’ve ever played, can’t begin to rave how much more consistent, lower spin, and stable they feel compared to other steel shafts I’ve used. Expensive, but well worth it for my game.”
- SniperBBB: “Mizuno jpx 900 hot metals.”
- Hit em good: “2 – 4 cap depending on season. 5 – PW Mizuno MP 64. 3 & 4 iron Mizuno MP Fli Hi (2010 model) in 3.”
- TrueWRX: “3-4 handicap. 2014 Callaway apex pros w/ c taper stiff forever. Just got the new Titleist T100-S w/ LZ 6.0. Haven’t tried them yet.”
- Stinger86: “2 cap : Blueprint project x lz 6.5”
- DCardinals: “4.1 index. Titleist 718 AP2 X100. Sitting in the closet is a set of Mizuno MP-63’s that I’m probably going to put back in play this season; the AP2’s are easy to hit, but they just go too high.”
- HighDrawsLowFades: “+1.6. Ping i210 4-U with DG 120 S300. I’m not the greatest ballstriker and these are perfect for me.”

4 iron i210 X100
5/9 S55 X100
Have an i210 5 iron on the way.
Similar to i210 guy above…not the best ball striker especially on long irons. Game is predicated around distance, short game, and avoiding big numbers. I need to hit more greens in reg.
