My Ho's of 2008. (so far)

M*nchesterGolfer said: I'm happy with my bag but just a little final tweaking for the 2008 season. So far I've ho'd a pair of Cobra speed pro fairways 15 & 18 degrees. Ho'd the 15 degree from 3 balls via Ebayer. It said on the listing like new condition and when it arrived today, it is actually new with the shrink wrap still on the head & it only cost $83 dollars! (plus $30 shipping). I've also got on the way a Scotty DeTour 34" in mint condition. I demo'd the detour a lot when it first arrived in the shops last year and liked it a lot but wasn't prepared to pay £180 ($360). I managed to pick it up for a bargain £66.44 which i'm happy to pay for a backup putter. It's coming via USPS so hopefully it will be here for the start of the season :laugh: I have a Geek DCT coming via IG and i've got a choice of shafting it with either a GD Purple Ice x-flex or a BiMatrix proto s-flex. Looking forward to trying this it's 12 degrees but IG says it plays more like a 10.5 head. So now there's just a new gap wedge & bag on the horrizon! Oh, I've also ho'd a Cally FT5 Tour & a Ping G2 but they were for friends needing legal drivers. I'm waiting for my Cally FT5 Tour to be replaced by Callaway, it should be here this week by all accounts but they said that before christmas as well!

w*rbirdlover said: Just getting the KE4 Maltby 3-wood put together by zaphod. Got a Adams BUL coming to play with (probably stick a UST V2 LD shaft in it) but G2 driver is gamer for now. New shafts on the hybrids. I just need to stock up on balls and I'm ready. :)

M*nchesterGolfer said: BTW, I want one of these if anybody knows of one going cheap ($75)ish in any pro shop or anything.Attachment 6187

Cr*ssfire said: Bought a tour swing Renegade with a Vengence shaft. Hoed 3 Bridgestone WC wedges. Possibly getting some j33Cbs after the demo day at OCN. New staff bag on the horizon Hoed a 55" LCD Insignia TV Student loans used for school? PSH!

S*berianDVM said: I just added a 15° Exotics 3 wood. In order to make the 14 club limit I had to remove my 56° SW. I usually use my 60° LW out of the sand anyway, so I hope I can make this work.

D*Gris said: another driver by Pinemeadow(780 draw titanium)...two Master grip wedges....Pine meadow putter....some kind of 4 hybrid..............I think I'm set for the year!

sssm*kin said: I want to get an Ogio Atlas bag like WBL.............really nice. Want to get a 18º hybrid of some sort, and then I'll be set. I just got a new Vokey 56º SW (10º bounce) to replace the used one I sold Dale. Need to stock up on balls, gloves, etc. and I'm ready.:)

I think you might enjoy this head with a decent shaft.

T*pflite_D2 said: I bought a TM 425 w/ Grafalloy prolaunch blue shaft. Hasn't arrived yet but schedualed for tomorrow so I'm demoing it to see the distance I get out of her. Plan on gettin some tees, Pro V1's and Winn driver grip and I'm set. I might also think of getting a hybrid to kick the 3 iron out of the bag.

d*ve. said: You know what, is the ho'ing going mental because no one bothers getting fit properly? How many guys who have taken some time, and spent some money, getting fit, bothered to ho like a cretin? Ez is being honest with himself, fair play to him, and Paul has admitted he has a mental desease, can't blame either of them, but surely we should start this year with a common goal in here, to all get fit properly.

I agree, I got fit for my irons last spring and I couldn't be happier with them. I'm going back this year for my driver and fairway woods. I may even go with a hybrid to replace my 5w...

Logic says that you are indeed correct. However, getting fitted for clubs is like getting married. You are eliminating the joy of the dating process. The joy of first encounters with clubs that grab your eye with their sexy smiles; when all the while, deep in your heart, you know they aren't for you. But you hope. You hope. Getting fitted means you've been through all the questions and discussions about whether she's right for you. You've made that committment to only one. Sure, you can always get a divorce and move on, but who's to say you won't question yourself from that point on? "Did I get fitted properly the first time?" "Maybe my swing has changed?" And who wants to get married again right after they've been divorced? We ho because we're never satisfied with what we've got. We ho because we are men.

Cl*mson said: I bought a new Cleveland CG10 56° to replace mine after it went for a swim back in December (long story) and I bought a demoed MP-60 6 iron to try out. I am trying to decide on some new irons and I am going try a lot of different ones before I buy this time. I can't decide between trying a Maltby CT 250 or a 905R.

S*berianDVM said: Quote: Originally Posted by Clemson I can't decide between trying a Maltby CT 250 or a 905R. Why those 2? Funny sort of, because I have a 45" 905R V2 that I love the sound but can't hit straight consistently, and a 43.5" CT250FC EI70 that I can hit straight but hate the sound. :)

*zra76 said: I've only ho'd the FTi but part was motivated by my want to sell my driver and 3w for cash to use on this trip. I will be looking for another putter when I get back though. I may try a Karsten Answer next for the rotation. I hate putting.

W*-Golfer said: Quote: Originally Posted by Topflite_D2 Why do you think that? Because I am betting your handicap is still pretty high, hit a lot of weird shots, mishits, etc. The Pro V's are a great ball...for those who have a great game, for the rest of us there are D2's, Nike's, etc that will work just as well & save us $20+ a box.

I prefer muted sounding drivers (aka 905R, 580XD)

Oh I understand what your saying. Yeah I'm planning on getting some Gamers. And the box of Pro V1's are 14 bucks so they are cheaper than most other golf balls.

W*-Golfer said: Quote: Originally Posted by Topflite_D2 Oh I understand what your saying. Yeah I'm planning on getting some Gamers.

Or you talking about the X outs or possibly the "hunter" style?

mdd*bya said: My new CT250 Driver with the UST V2 Stiff flex arrived today, I can't wait to hit the range with it. I also have a McGregor The Fat Lady Swings putter and Mizuno wedges, MP T's in 56* and 60* on the way. Seems like I ordered something else, but I can't remember now?:laugh: Some body make the voices go away, they keep saying, "Buy more clubs, buy more clubs."

*zra76 said: Quote: Originally Posted by Topflite_D2 Oh I understand what your saying. Yeah I'm planning on getting some Gamers. And the box of Pro V1's are 14 bucks so they are cheaper than most other golf balls. Think you could hook brother up with $15,000 worth. :)

*li_yates said: just purchased my set of nike ignite irons and i am so excited... i now have a set of wilson pi5 irons up for sale if anyone is interested then let me know.

They are nice looking irons............never swung them, but they sure do look good compared to the SQ irons. Good pickup.:)

tn-g*lfnut-from-nj said: How can anyone not ho anything with you guys around?:( I wasn't going to ho anything this year, but someone mentioned the Cobra baffler, now I'm thinking.(yes it its dangerous for me to think) I might even break down, and get rid of my Wal Mart special putter. Driver's working fine for now, so do the CG4s, however, I'm thinking about some Hogan irons. You guys are just a bad influence.:real angry::laugh:

T*pflite_D2 said: I'm thinking of the Maltby M-Series Black Ion Plated wedges 48° and 56°/6 wedges.
