Callaways......oh yeah....
I was out to the driving range today with my new used Callaway Woods and Driver along with some new slightly oversized grips........I was able to put a few against the far fence....And they just feel good when they strike the ball.....

I must have hit close to 400 balls this w-e. On the downside, I still can't find a driver I like.

I'd love to have a new set of irons, but doubt it would help me much. I've got a Titleist driver that I absolutely love and that allows me to drive the ball a really long way into the adjacent fairway.

Now I can put the balls so deep into the 40' rough that it'll be a waste of time to go looking.

I'm lucky in that a lot of people who are trying to sell me something like to take me golfing and provide me a never-ending supply of golf balls. I'm pretty bad, but as long as I don't have to pay I'm willing to go out and enjoy the course

Make sure you don't have blue balls or the bears will think they're huckleberries.

My core set are Callaways with a Big Bertha driver of course. When I first got them I added at least 30 yards to my drives. Didn't help a lick with keeping them straight but no club does that.

I think my Callaway irons are much better than the Pings I now keep stored in the garage, but I dumped the Big Bertha woods for Taylormades and like those much more.
But the best club in my bag is an old Cle>eland sand wedge.

I was off to the range again, after dinner this evening. I took my crap PureSpin irons and was able to keep most of them straight.
Loosing two balls in a game around here is par for me. The rough is a bit rough.
