    A few other forums have this, so thought I would give it a go here.
    So basically, if you've just splashed out on golf gear, make us all jealous here!

    I bought 3 new oil can vokeys at the weekend, 52, 56 and 60.
    A bit of an extravagant purchase, but I never spend money on clubs so decided to treat myself. ( I also had a large gap from 48PW to 56 SW so needed to fill that...dropped a 3i...no loss there :D)

    Taylormade R11S 5wood, regular flex from Golfsmith in the US, mate brought it over for me, $99 brand new, hit it a few times on the first round and like it a lot, very solid feel.

    Just ordered the Nike Covert Performance driver with the Kuro Kage Silver 60 Shaft from the Tour model. Its a "custom" order so still waiting for it to arrive. Didnt like the Black 50 shaft that came standard in the performance model at all. It looked great but was too whipy. Pity they cant just swap the shafts in the store for you.

    I figured the driver has been going so well for McIlroy it must be worth a try :D

    Bought one of these last week, goes like a bullet, set for B2 for a bit a a draw more than a fade. €179, could have got it cheaper elsewhere but had credit for the pro-shop so only had to pay about 60 quid.

    I bought my first ever membership to a club today. Donabate golf club, doing a deal for €300 for full membership for the rest of the year if you're between 20-30. Nice course and can get started on my handicap now. :D

    Yeah, they're tricky enough alright, and putting isn't exactly my strong point. :( Some long par 3s as well. 191 yards and 179 yards from the whites. Practice areas are sufficient and the new clubhouse is very nice. Delighted with that deal tbh.
