Whats in the bag
November 6th, 2005 by Doogs
Here’s an overview of whats in my golf bag at the moment…...
Driver: Titleist 983E, 10.5 degree
The latest addition to the stable, loved the 975D but the lure of bigger and longer was too great. Picked this one up on ebay
3 Wood: Titleist 980F 13 degree
Low profile fairway wood, nice when hit clean off the fairway or light rough. Not much room for error off the tee. Also bought off ebay
Hybrid: Taylor Made Rescue, 15 degree
The evolution of the hybrid, a cross between a fairway wood and an iron is the best thing for mid handicappers since they put dimples on the balls. More forgiving than a long iron, clean off the tee. Tends to hook on me if Im not concentrating – ouch!
Irons: Callaway X-16 4 iron through to Pitching
Finally replaced my irons this year. The Callaways have a large profile with big cavity back, supposed to put more weight llow and behind the ball. Now I just need to hit them properly!
Sand Wedge: Titleist Vokey 56 degree
One of the better parts of my game getting out of the sand. The classic lines of the Vokey help extracating me from the beach, yet another ebay purchase
Lob Wedge: Cobra Trusty Rusty 60 degree
Often refered to as the Untrusty Rusty, but on its day this is a life-saver. The sharp leading edge avoids those nasty chunck shots. Pitch to a short pin placements over a bunker is where this club earns its spot in the bag
Putter: Odyssey
Been in the bag for a while now, and all in all has served me well
