Let's real 'er back in.
yeah that's why i was asking. he says in the description its worth $700 new, i was just confirming with the fellow golf nerds. i never said i was trying to, i was just getting y'alls opinions.
Anything is only worth what somebody is willing to pay for it.

Don't feel bad. I got this same feedback about 6 months ago when I was going to buy a Ryder Cup edition Bettinardi and stow it away for some years to sell down the road.

i don't really care about that type of feedback anymore..
I have managed to make money on golf equipment every now and again, but quite often you just have to be happy to break even. Once in a while I'll stumble across a gem like an R11s or a 910d2 with a DI-6s or a Fubuki Alpha for $150 and you can almost always make money on those. TMag or Titleist are easy sells most of the time.

It's an investment in happiness. Putters are fun.

Obviously. But I separate joy from financial benefit.
For instance, this is joy:
Hehe

So my first ever fitting has been scheduled for next Friday (March 1). I'll be doing Driver and FWs on that one and then the next one will be Hybrids/Irons/Wedges, plus they are a Bridgestone ball fitter so they will do a ball fitting as well. I'm pretty excited, I've worked on my game and while it's nowhere near perfect, it's come a long way in a few months. I am then going to take their recommendations and the numbers I am getting on each shaft/ball and talk with the folks at B-fit. Then from there I will be ready to submit my orders for the Morgan Cup! I'll throw up some numbers and my thoughts afterwards.

9* and 10.5*.
I have a particular reason for it. A legitimate one, thank you.
PS, you've bought a HELL of a lot more clubs than I have this year.

Getting it done at a local place here in Erie, it's called Golf Etc. That's where I took my lessons this year and I really enjoyed my time with the pro. PLUS, are town's golf expo is this weekend at our convention center. So I am demo as many 2013 things as I can. Just in-case!
I am really looking forward to it. Excited to see how things turn out!

Yes I have. But I have not yet said, "I am done pondering for a bit. I don't need anything else." Every third day for the past 5 weeks.

Not for a shaft, per say. Just an experiment, a very valid one.
I believe I've said I don't need anything else, doesn't mean I don't want it. Plus, this is for a particular reason, thank you very much.Yes I have. But I have not yet said, "I am done pondering for a bit. I don't need anything else." Every third day for the past 5 weeks.

I can see that being an awesome idea, high launch low spin seems like a great idea to me.
You're going to put lead tape on it aren't you.
