Blader-X's bag

Although there will be some changes soon, here is what's in the bag for now. I've been meaning to get these up for you and I've finally done it. I'm still learning but this my attempt at the Chris Pierson school of photography!

The 3-iron and 22* TRC take turns depending on the venue.

Louie's been on the bag for years, Ultra-Man is his new friend.

"24" is my son's playing number. Ultra-Man's eyes are radioactive.

Hope you all enjoyed the pics. Thanks to Chris for helping to hook me up with some these beauties!

I love the X Blade irons. Nice.

Thanks boys!! Yeah, I feel in love with those irons last summer in Japan and couldn't stop thinking about them. They have the sleekest topline. I'm pretty happy with them.

:tsg_smilie_cool: :tsg_smilie_cool: Great rig.

Just as a guide, what's your swing speed with the driver and how far do you hit your 5 iron. I'm still looking to get some NS Pros in my irons and would just like your thoughts on them.

Also what model is that Mizuno carry bag?

A very very good set!!

Thanks Jack,

I haven't measured my driver speed in sometime but its around 115 and can vary a little depending upon how I'm feeling on a given day. I hit the Axiv V8072 in the driver and really like it, so much so that I'm getting another one, slightly stiffer, V8076 in an Epon. I have had no problems getting the ball airborne, so I'd have to say that's a fair estimate on the swing speed.

Stock 5-iron right about 175 yards, but again conditions will make that number vary. I usually play in some heavy ocean air near the coast, but when I go out to the desert that number goes up, especially if the turf is firm and air is hot and dry.

The Mizuno bag is a Twister. My son picked the color, I usually go with just plain black. I like the overall design of the bag, but I am disappointed in the stand. Its not the most sturdiest of stands I've owned. It is comfortable to walk in though. One of these days, I'm going to have to break down and get a nice TourStage bag from Chris. One of these days. :tsg_smilie_rolleyes:

In regards to the NSPros, I absolutely love them. So much so, that after going to them, the 3-iron is seeing a lot more time in the bag and on the course. They just have so much feel. I can't recommend these highly enough. I like heavier clubs and these 1150's give me the weight I want combined with great feel.

Thanks Chris,

All I need now, is the Epon 460 (on the way), G-Field 4 wood and G-Field Utility (very close to pulling the trigger) and I think I'll be set. :tsg_smilie_rolleyes: :tsg_smiley_laughatyou:

Blader-x, I have one of the earlier model twister bags, although I like you are not overly wrapped in the stand.

Thanks for the heads up on the NS Pros!!

8-iron's hiding under the 7 in the pic for some reason!!

Yes, that's a M2 Plus. Its been seeing time of recent as I was burning a lot of edges and just not sharp on the greens. I started putting the M2 in play and for awhile was alternating between the two. Back to the Zone #1 as I basically "fixed" what I was doing wrong.

The Type S is only in a 3 iron. Experimenting it with it for while and am liking the results very much. The TourStages are solidly in the bag for the 4-9 iron slots. Those are my babies and feel very confident with them.
