    I'm actually happy out with my clubs at the moment, maybe new shoes but that'd be it.



    Will probably change the whole set in the new year now!!!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 27,055 ✭✭✭✭GreeBo


    Laser
    Irons
    Driver
    Battery

    Probably not in that order!


  • Registered Users Posts: 192 ✭✭jokser250


    A new driver is no 1 on the list


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,750 ✭✭✭redzerdrog


    In the following order:

    Join a club (Seapoint)
    Wet gear
    2 new wedges
    Golf Buddy
    Electric Buggy
    Custom fitted Irons (may have to wait till the following year)


  • Registered Users Posts: 935 ✭✭✭pinkdoubleeagle


    Nothing for me
    Going to go through a year without trying to change any clubs
    Will be tough

    Foregolf

    I played golf with Aaron from there last year and he tried to explain their concept to me but I was missing something.

    I understand they build clubs, but I though getting custome fit from your own Pro, would involve clubs being taylored for you. So I still can't understand what is different about them to getting my own Pro to custom fit me.

    I'd be tempted to visit them and see what their opinions of my set up are as I play with a gifted set, mind you they are damn fine sticks Taylormade 300 Series irons and a mix of Taylormade wedges and metal woods.

    Hmmm, now I think about it, I just missed a trick, was the birthday last week, but might be an idea for Chrimbo :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,439 ✭✭✭spacecoyote


    I really don't "need" anything...does that matter though, know I'll without doubt buy something anyway.

    My 58 vokey is pretty old & battered at this stage so maybe an update of that?

    Tossing up with the idea of investing in an electric trolley

    When I hear about a "custom fit" from a pro then in my mind it's usually (not always) confined to things like
    - what clubs they have available in store
    - is the player stiff or regular
    - maybe some messing around with loft and lie.
    - he mightn't have launch monitors etc

    In my head it's "custom fit with limitations".
    But what I think Foregolf do is remove the limitations and generally get a lot more technical.
    So instead of it maybe being a stiff v regular option... They will prob have you try out 5,6,7 different types of stiff shaft to see which is the best.
    They would also have you on launch monitors and have way more clubs to try out etc.

    While the club pro may be giving you the best setup he has available in store, Foregolf are giving you the best set up imaginable... That's my understanding of it in general (some club pros do have more options, technology available and come a lot closer to the Foregolf offering)

    Fair points. I guess my own Pro is probably one of those who come a lot closer to the Foregolf offering so and that is why I am confused.

    It might just be a Re-Grip of the clubs for me, maybe a new wedge, new battery, carrying is great, but my clubs are bloody heavy and the back hurts a bit. might give me an extra edge to get the electric cart going again

    I can't believe that I will say this - but feel almost good enough to get a laser :D

    Working on 100 yard shot - 75 yard - 50 yard - 25 yard.

    I feel a laser will be key to the practice part - say hit 50 - then back pin , know exact distance.

    Yes - the lady is for turning. :D
