Eddie in his car. LOL. In all serious though, it has to be the lowest launching shaft I've ever had...coming from a high ball hitter.

So, the Mavrik X AD XC is killing it. Very happy.

I’m facing two conundrums. I need to get some stouter shafts for my irons and fairways, as irons are just s+, and woods are only S. I’m also still battling arm and wrist pain.

I feel I have to keep the wood heads, as I’m very happy with the Ping Fairways and hybrid...
I might put the AD XC in your sexwood to lower the flight. I can hit moon balls with the ventus blue.

I also love my blueprints, but feel I could use some extra forgiveness. Contemplating CB’s for a little assistance.

fujimoto CB, Miura CB? I’d likely pair them with MMT 125 TX

    Depends what CB. I am pretty certain blueprints are more forgiving than just about any true player forged CB out there. If you’re looking for help you will have to keep with a techy cavity like an AP2/T100 IMO.

    ckay I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the blueprints. I’m hitting them extremely well since getting them last season. Just the ho in me wanting to try something different since we will already be reshafting

      Not getting to play a ton. Building the house, now teaching my wife to play, and dealing with a 4 year old and 1 year old on the range. It's tough.

      Swing has seen better days. I need a range session and a weekend to play 18-36 alone. :/

      Please roast me @Eddie

      bro, nothing to roast there, swing looks awesome, some really solid matchups that I'm jealous of there.

      Ok if I have to break balls, it's that divot spread pattern 🤣

      So this thread is no where near the entertainment of @bigjohntripod, but I felt like him yesterday....

      Basically couldn’t make contact. Had a NLU wayward drive logo moment on #2, so far left might need to change my handle to ForeWayWayLeft! Number 3 I laid sod over the ball...with a HYBRID. Hit it maybe 25 yards. Sick double on that hole. Limped in the rest of the 9 holes. Finished with a 39...felt like 59. Thought about selling the sticks it was terrible how bad I hit it on what’s basically a pitch and putt course.

      Head out to the range this morning, hit 20-25 balls with the G box....Boom! I’m a different man! Went out today STRIPING IT. The mavrik was hitting bombs. Flagging my irons, and throwing darts with wedges. Nice little 33 on the back 9 this morning which is the way tougher of the 2 nines.

      I don’t understand golf guys. How you can go from so bad to so good in less than 24 hours is beyond me!

      Yesterday though definitively had me contemplating trading the irons in for a set of P7MC/MB combos...as I could used the help, especially on the off days. Might need to go test those out this fall! I’m intrigued to say the least.

      ForeLeft it’s the brain man! I’ve come to the conclusion that I just had bad/wrong swing thoughts the past two week 🤷‍♂️

      Swing looking primo playa!

      May look into one of them box thingys

      There's your key, I've noticed if I don't get amped up or somewhat fear the layout or difficulty of a golf course, I play like crap. But put me on a tricked out golf course and I will be fully concentrated.

      Photoshop will be my demise.... already designing my Artisan Wedges for when they offer lefty...

      Thought about putting Cheat codes on them....This one is "Perfect Handling" from GTA on ps2

      Have thoughts from other games codes for my other wedges....NBA Jam, NFL Blitz, Wayne Gretzky 99 on n64...etc.

      Order has been submitted for my 0117. I can't wait. Inspiration from Rickie's current Cameron with a mix of my own flair.

      Also, I've been battling some arm pain for the last 5 years. I think it's finally time to go graphite.

      Contemplating what irons and shaft to go for this winter....

      Head options:
      TM P7MC
      Fuijmoto FT-1 CB (clarifying if available lefty)
      Miura 801 CB
      Awaiting to see what is coming form Callaway

      Shaft options:
      MMT 105TX
      SteelFiber h-tour 120 in TS. (Japan Spec)
      SteelFiber J- Series 108 in X. (Japan Spec)

      ForeLeft cannot wait to see the finished product on this. I'm intrigued by the blue fade neck

      Thinking I need to get refit this winter.

      Have a feeling Counter Balanced wood shaft will be be best for me. That's what I've had the most success with, and the AD XC is erratic. When it's on its on...but when it's off it's off.

      Thinking Tz6 CB with some fun custom colors. Maybe Tensei orange raw? any other options I should take a look at? Oban Kiyoshi HB was excellent. I'm pissed that broke.

      Need something stiffer in irons as well.

      Some purchases have been made. Mail day coming soon. Need to get dialed before club championship.

      ForeLeft

      I really enjoy the VR shaft, so much so that I’m going to get another one for the driver, it’s slightly counterbalanced, might give you a smoother transition than the xc.

      Eddie I’m hesitant to go anything GD after this. Only my 2nd ever X flex shaft and it felt like a regular. The AD XC I expected to be like rebar as it was touted as their most Stout and low/low shaft.

        ForeLeft

        how about Hzrdus smoke green small batch? Looks amazing and is rebar without a doubt.
