>>
>>2864859
Driver - Cobra Darkspeed X
3W - Wilson D100
5W - Nike Vaporfly
2H - Wilson D100
4-PW - Mizuno MP-52
56 - Callaway Jaws
60 - Wilson, can't remember the name but it was that cheap one
Putter - Odyssey 2ball Blade

I get most my stuff second hand because I'm not paying full price for stuff made in China.
I keep a 2H and a 5W because I can't really hit fairway woods on the grass yet. Surprisingly my 4i is really handy on the course, I rarely fall short with it. Haven't tried the 3i on the course still
>>
>>2864859
A 4 hybrid, it's basically a 7 wood right? How is it to play?
>>
>>2864866
I usually play it like an iron when I'm in deep rough. small head, but a bit more mass to force it through the gras.
>>
>>2864859
Haven't they relentlessly fucked with the degree of loft in each "wood" and "iron" over the decades? Seems better to list skinny or fat clubhead and degree of loft.
>>
>>2864916
Yeah, for irons at least they're delofted. My clubs from 2008 are 1 or 2 off current day clubs, i.e. my old 4 is new 5 and so on
>>
>>2864916
The irons are a 20 year old set that was collecting dust in my stepdad's attic, so I don't even know the degree of the clubs. I just know I can carry 130m with the 7 and than 10 meters more or less when clubbing up or down.
>>
>>2864857
i've never played golf before, but its the only sport i can watch if i'm somewhere like a bar
do most fields have a sort of rent-a-club thing or beginner's tutorial if you're starting out? or is that something for upscale places or dedicated centers?
i see fields around a few places, but they have basically no advertising of what they do besides what they're called
>>
>>2864964
Yeah courses offer rental clubs for rounds (not for practicing at the range). Just like put a note in if you're booking a time online. You could find an executive 9-hole course too
>>
>>2864964
>>2864977
Depends where you play, every courses I've been to offered to rent (shitty) clubs for the range too.
If you want to have a try, you should either book an hour with a teacher or get a friend to show you how to hit the ball

My dad used to take me to the range all the time when I was a kid but I've only played an actual round once in my life

I really enjoy going to the range on my own now as an adult but I still haven't tried playing for real
I think I'm really good at hitting balls on the range though
>>
>>2865042
I once got paired with someone similar. Said he was a 54 HCP and this was his first round. He grabbed his driver and sent an absolute ICBM 300m on the green. Turned out he's been doing nothing but hitting his driver on the range for a year. Which explained why he needed 4 putts
>>
>>2865055
I learned putting through mini golf like Happy Gilmore

Cobra can suck my dick. Brand new driver, got it last month, took it to the range 3 times and the screw has rust?? My 2018 Callaway never had a spot and I took it to hell and back. The better send a new one.
>>
>>2865177
Can I have that one?

Funny thing it's the first ever driver I bought new. I got my previous Callaway (Rogue) for 60€ second hand. Check out European countries for used golf equipment, it's much less trendy than in anglo countries so people just get rid of grandpa's gear sometimes. Pic related I sent to a friend a while back
>>
>>2865181
Yeah Ive never bought new gear. Thats a great idea too, I never wouldve thought to check.
>>
>>2865182
I need to warn you the Rogue had a senior shaft, so you get surprises sometimes lmao. Also make sure to check for any cracks around the hosel, especially on woods
>>
>>2865183
Bryson says soft shafts are a good thing
Get more whip out of it
>>
I think I will buy a Sumo 2
>>
>>2864857
i want to play speed gold with nothing but a 7 and a putter. how do i do it without pissing off everyone?
>>
>>2865214
Just say you're training for something, I've seen the pros at my course do that
>>
