    Might help if you specify a bit of what your preferences are.... like "something older or newer, price range, forged, multi material , amount of offset  etc.."   

     

     

    Good advice. Price I am totally open on, new or old, but must be in excellent condition, and less offset is always better!

  17. Titleist Vokey SM6 Tour Issue Prototype Wedges ***RAW***

    Hi All,

    For sale is a very (very!) rare set of wedges. I was fortunate enough to acquire these and have them touched up by Continetal Golf. They haven't touched a ball since. Just couldn't pass them up. Unfortunately, the top end of my bag won't allow for this wedge set-up so they're out the door to somebody that will play them.

    These were distributed as a set and should stay as such. See the ordered tour serial #'s, hand stamped 'Titleist' on each head, square address position too...insanely cool.

    ***In full disclosure the 60* has a small mark on the sole and the 52* has two pin sized marks on the sole.***

    Asking $OLD shipped and PP...which is less than I have into them :/

    Any questions please ask! Thanks.

  19. Zero Offset Irons

    Understood sir and thank you, email me if you need custom ground Miura or Mizuno's.

    Congrats on your skills :) hope you get the cap back down again.

    I will reach out if need be! Thanks.

    Please, no congratulations...I had to work very, very hard to get where I was. Many that were, and are, far, far superior. The waters sure run deep :) I'm happy with my level of play these days because I can't expect much more quite frankly.

    I play to a 4 these days...and as you'd expect it can be very good, or not so great (by my standards). Was as low as a +1.7, 7-10 years ago when I was playing regular, competitive golf. Certainly familiar with what it is to play good golf and go low; but that was then and this is now :) Not trying to pump myself up, but just painting more of a complete picture for you. Ball striking has always trumped my short game.

    It's honestly a mental thing for me this offset issue. I just can't get comfortable over my current irons as I see more offset in them than there actually is. This, in turn, affects my ability to make a good pass at the ball as I feel I'm having to manipulate the offset with my swing/hands. That's the best way I can describe it...so much so, infact, that I've gotten wayyyyy out of position from time to time at the top of my swing - resulting in those dreaded 'lateral fades'.

    I'm also a picker of the ball. Seeing a square leading edge coming from the hosel just suits my eye and inspires confidence. I had a set of the 714 CB's prior to this, but am just getting back into more regular play. Thought I'd upgrade to the 716s after the glowing reviews. No doubt they're good - but if I'm not comfortable, I'm not comfortable.

    So I hit the 716s 'well' most of the time, but feel I'm leaving something on the table not feeling 100% comfortable.

    Yes, I understand that there's no such thing as zero offset in any set I'm likely to find. Just what I, and most every other golfer, would perceive zero offset to look like is what I'm after.

    Sorry for not having used the correct terminology. Every iron has some offset, but I want the ones that trick my brain into thinking there isn't any...fair? Lol

    I'll continue my search for a modern alternative 'minimal offset' to ones I've already played. Seems there are a couple options in your store even.

    Thanks to all those who chimed in.

    Don't do zero offset, first because it requires specific molds created to get a true 0 offset in the long and mid irons (short is no problem). Second all brands have offset for a reason it makes clubs easier to hit. I get this request somewhat often and it's always the claim "my eye can't stand offset". trust me it's there for a reason and by FP #'s the difference between 5.0 vs 5.5 vs 6.0 FP is so small visually but has a big impact performance if you think zero is the solution your kidding yourself. Even if your on the PGA tour in the top 5 you will notice FP helps in long/mid irons.

    But if you must you must so Mizuno Yoro and Miura can be pushed to crank the heads enough to get you close.

    The original molds of long/mid irons have more offset so cranking them to none before grinding causes a strange look, short irons can be made with zero offset and some PW's with onset if you like.

    I've done very, very close to zero in the past with custom builds and it just suits my eye.

    What suggestions do you have with close to zero in your store?
