Mizuno cavity backs have treated me well

T-Zoids? My old man plays those. I played forged Hogan Edges for the longest time. Played the grooves off of them. Awesome irons that i hated to give up but kind of old school. I'm playing some Nike Victory irons now. I hit them well but they are heavy. Kind of a hybrid cavity/blade mix as you go from long to short.

the ones I have are cavity backs and they were sort of semi custom...not sure why, but I went with the graphite shaft and I know I hit the ball plenty hard enough that I will certainly be upgrading to steel this time around. Think the old ones are Palmers or something...

This has nothing to do with what you said but I might be able to get you a hookup at Taylormade. I usually get 40% off but I dunno how we'd made the logistics work. Also if you buy them this way there is no warranty on them.

PM me if you want more details

These feel amazing when you hit the spot, but otherwise it's a mess.

thats what she said

I've hit both, and they both have great distance, control, and are forgiving.

thats what he said

Sorry I couldnt help myself.

Carry on with the golf talk:leaving:

I play Callaway X-12's I bought used off a scratch golfer I work with. 2-SW for $250. Then added on matching woods new.

There is nothing wrong with saving some money and buying used. Just inspect the shafts for cracks and such. You are going to be hitting things with them anyway.

Unless you are really good I would suggest cavity backs and be sure to get whatever you buy fitted. That is most important.

I can post pics to prove my sticks (And I can rhyme)

Don't know why people would lie about what they play...it's the scores that matter

I used to be married into a family of golf freaks. To call the things they did with their scores "fudging" would be extremely generous :lol:

Saw a T-Shirt once that said "I golf; therefore, I lie", Figured the designer must have known my in-laws.

(have also seen "I golf; therefore, I swear"; that one was just as true)

Yeah you meet some interesting characters at the golf course. I worked at a course for a year and a half when I was in college and the people and the stories they tell are amazing. I played either 36 or 27 holes for a year straight and some of the members ended up doubling my paycheck each week!

The best was when one member always said he was a 1 handicap and tried to qualify for the US Open at Torrey Pines. He was a grade A asshat, drove a Farrari and took up two spots, had a wife less than half his age who had great tits, and always top of the line gear. You need to be a 1 handicap to be able to try and qualify. Long story short he shot well over 100 before they made him stop playing without finishing his round and he's basically been blacklisted at many nice courses in SD. I laugh every time I think about him.

His wife finally woke up and left him with a lot of his money and a new boob job! Everyone wins.

    • I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/
    • I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...
    • Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
