I'll be there as well.
didnt see you there Pete... I got in at about 6:50pm. Nudgee, dc68, rusty, the RS's and my neighbour Cameron was there. Huge night!! I didn't realise the other brands were gonna be there. People everywhere!
I only had the chance to try the Titleist stuff and the Bridgestone JCC combo irons, hybrid and driver. Nice stuff. I liked the Bridgey J33 irons. Cameron is gonna get a set made up through Vic Park. Super price too...
I tried the 695CB, 735CM and 755CB irons from Titleist. The 695 were just too severe for me, no offset. The 735 were sweet. Hit them the best. The 755's were nice, but I didn't like the shafts. They looked very similar to the 735's at address, but i hit it very high with them. Shame they didn't have them with DG S300. After trying a few irons, i'm more comfortable with a heavier swingweight and modest offset. Think I'll stick with the Ravens. Other than the 3,4,5 being a touch unforgiving, they are as sweet as anything I've demo'd.
One revelation was the 905R. I've not been a fan of them til now. I tried it with the Aldila NV 65-S first of all and it was horrible. Very high and hooked the crap out of it. The I tried one with a V2 75G shaft. It was a rocket. Sounded and flew completely differently. Gave me the same kind of flight I get with the 905S, but seemed to "livelier". I hit 5 or 6 with it and they were all strong mid-height draws. Nice!
I also tried the 585H in 21 and 24. The 21 wasn't much different to my 19. The 24 looked like it was similar to a 3 iron in trajectory and distance. Don't know that I'd swap my 3iron for one of these.... yet. Shame they don't offer a 22-23. Would fit better with a 19deg.
Had fun, was good to see a few familiar faces.
Did ya hit the 906 fairways Vegas?
Yeah I tried a demo one with NV shaft and Nudgee's with the Rombax(?) shaft. I struggled with both. In fact, I cold topped Nudgee's a couple of time before I finally got it airborne. I didn't see a steel shafted one to try, so can't compare with my 904. I certainly wasn't inspired to change!!!Originally Posted by gazgolf1
Yeah not having seen them in person,only in pics I prefer the look of the 904's.Not a huge fan of matte black.Originally Posted by BrisVegas
Just ring the local driving ranges and they will tell whats coming up.
Terry.
jarro, Ping are having a demo at Vic Park Driving Range tomorrow (Tues) night between 6p and 8p.
Isn't it the case that when Jarro utters the word 'Ping' an angel dies or something??
If anyone is interested, they're holding a demo night next Thursday 22/02 (4pm to 8pm) at the Logan River driving range.
The following gear will be available.
Taylor Made
Ping
Titleist
Cobra
Mizuno
Cleveland
Not sure what time, but I'll be popping in on my way home from work.
Ryan
so that's why you had such a good score at Wynnum...
don't know if they're available at demo days yet, but young Dean (QAS golfer who stays with us) was at Vic Park yesterday and the Titleist rep was there with the new 907 D1 & D2 drivers. Dean had a hit and was very impressed with the D2 (with V2 75-S). Not so much the D1 (with YS-6 S) he reckoned.... Went a bit too high and spun too much.
TM are at Vic Pk tonight for the Briso's from 6pm.
Ping say they will be at Vic PK on Tues 6th....not sure what month.
