Ned
9th June 2010, 07:03 PM
In a couple of weeks Ill be looking at buying a new set of sticks.

Options are:

- Buy retail

- Buy a set of heads and have Tomson do his magic

- Buy Lucasto23's mates Titleist 710's.


If I go the 1st or 2nd option, what is the multiple opinions on brands ? (Like them to be cavity back, nothing chunky in style or build and steel shafts)

Or just stay with the Titty 735's ?

you haven't told us what the 735's are doing wrong for you? Do you want more or less forgiveness, higher or lower ballflight etc....

Ned
10th June 2010, 07:48 AM
So far we have:

Mizuno's

AP1's

Lucasto's Mates

Woodies

The 735's will most probably stay as a back up set / may live in Brisbane to save on lugging them down there / or ill sell them.

Ball flight is ok and so is forgiveness, did some checking of the AP1's, but as always anything that makes it easier to hit with good flight never goes astray. (As long as they are not BUTT ugly)

The putterman has nice gear on his site!

Yeah Ned you can leave Lucas's mates 710 set here - don't worry about putters or wedges I have heaps to use :-)

I reckon Lucas's mates crubs are a bargain at $700 delivered by Lucas to my place...and they are the right length for me as well ;-)

What driver do you think we will leave here - I'd prefer the VR with the Ilima in it I think.....

Damn if only you use irons half an inch shorter we could like time share our cobra irons to minimize overall wear :)

AP2s are very straight. I can't believe how straight they are! I don't hit them as far as my cavities ,but way straighter!

PeteyD
11th June 2010, 09:59 PM
Dave, this emphasis on straight is getting worrying, maybe you should join Yoss in the cupboard.

Do what Mike is doing and buy some fugly hack sticks.

What bit do you struggle with PeteyD? Henno has said the same thing, the AP2s are very straight. It is actually a challenge to hit a slice or a draw with them. I don't know why but I love them for it. And they are way more forgiving than I ever thought they would be.

Lucasto23
11th June 2010, 10:23 PM
lets think straight equals way less crap to play out of ;)

and possibly lower scores :)

I was aluding to ...

Meh. Your claims about straightness were why I wanted to get the ones Jackass was selling. Alas fundage is nowhere near enough to get them

hehe. Sorry! you are welcome to try mine but! I would assume the AP1s are more of the same?

PeteyD
11th June 2010, 10:41 PM
Nah, don;t assume. Are yours 710s or the older ones. I think it is the older ones that get the good wraps.

henno
12th June 2010, 08:39 AM
They are very straight, no doubt about that.

Edit: You're welcome to borrow mine for a round if you want to see how the AP2s go, Petey. Lord knows I'm not using them.

Mine are Mk1s, not the 710s.

Thanks for the offer Henwah. What shafts in them though?

Ned
12th June 2010, 08:34 PM
mmmmmmmm..................................finally spoke to the Broken Ho today and a deal is possibly pending on the 710's.

But he has even said straight is better so should I be looking at a set of these AP1's or AP2's ?:smt108
