I remember Krank being a part of certain things in the past if Im not mistaken, do you think youll have a chance to hit this thing?

Yup. if not at the PGA Show, shortly thereafter.

Awesome! I really look forward to hearing about it. I love that everything around here gets a fair shake. I am intrigued by components and lesser known OEMS but its hard to find them, especially in LH

Im pondering some aerotech steel fibre i95's...

That was my 1 big disappointment with the 588 CB iron set: no gap wedge. It looks like I'll be in the same boat with Bridgestone in 2013. My 2 iron sets before that were the R9 and R11 irons from TM, you have NO idea how much I loved the gap wedges in those irons sets. It was my go-to club for 110-120 yard shots, and it seemed like I would have at least 2-3 shots like that every round. Right now, I struggle with the gap between the 50 degree 588 wedge and the PW in the 588 iron set, it's a little frustrating.

With bridgestone and its traditional lofts, you could strengthen them by a degree, add a second PW, shorten it by a half inch and weaken it by 2 degrees and be set. Take a G stamp and mark around the P a few times. Voila.

This is a ponder I've had quite often, and in R flex believe it or not because the SF's are notoriously stout.

Having been tinkering with the 913. I think I want a heavier feel to my driver. I am thinking of going to a heavier shaft. Something closer to 65 grams. I just don't know how that will feel with the head though.

Nice ponder! The S+ 62 could be amazing.

The krank element driver.

I don't quite know how I feel about it. I think it might be awesome.

I have a J40 bent 2˚ strong to 50. No issues there. I contacted Bridgestone prior to having it bent though.

Do you all know the difference between the noodle long and soft and the noodle soft balls? I know the long and soft is 85 compression rating but I'm not sure about the other one

One of the BEST ones I have EVER rolled is actually a Snake Eyes SV1. Heavier head, tremendous 8802, TREMENDOUS.

I may have that putter at my parents place in Florida. I'm going down there in Mid-Jan, I'll see what one it is. I always seem to roll those putters so well, i think it might be time to bag one again.

Face looks like this?

A fun one to roll!

Sort of. I doesnt have the shapes in the face. It does have the milling though. Mine might be closer to the Ping Sedona than a true 8802 style.

Amp Cell in a 11.5. If I could find an Asha for it I don't think I could wreck some fools

I approve this 11.5 ponder. BOMBER loft right there.

 

[T2GRN18]

Bushnell Tour Z6 or the tour V2. I've gone long enough with trying to find yardage markers and sprinkler heads

 

[Jman]

I want an 11.5 Extreme, I really do. I'm going to have to find a way to make this one happen early next year.

Dude even bad shots into the wind were going 230. So much more forgiving

I believe it. I'm sold on more loft and my 4x, it really is an absolute blast to use.

Heading to Dicks sporting goods to ponder everything golf.

I want 11.5 or something higher loft like that to pair with my 4x. That would be nice.

D, its a hell of a combo dude. Towering but penetrating the whole way in wind or not, I should have listened to JB long ago.

I think I should have done the same. 9 degrees of loft is stupid

I already have it at 10.5, but I think 11.5 would be awesome.

 

[ATLGolfer]

I don't think my blade ponder is going to pan out. Back to these:

Those are pretty sweet. I still remember them from the ATL outing. At first I was thinking, "Bridgestone -- seriously?" And then I hit a few on the range. They are incredibly solid irons, and they are easily the biggest surprise that I had this year in golf equipment.
