Subject: Callaway pre owned which one would you pick?
|
Buying clubs from callaway preowned golf, need opinions and info to
help decide or what types of things i should look at to help me decide.
I am new to golf playing for a few months a few times a months. looking
at these clubs wondering differences, similaritys, which one you would
pick and why?
Steelhead X-16 3-PW
1. true temper.
2. royal precision rifle.
Big Bertha '04 4-10,W
1. true temper.
three choices the x-16 have a 3 iron but no 10 and come in either true
temper or rifle. the bertha only come in true temper, at least thats
all thats available right now. I have heard that the berthas are more
forgiving but are they that much more forgiving. if they are good for
high handicappers like i have read. if/when i get better will they
hinder shot making ability that much or will i never really get to that
point if i only plan to be a recreational player playing 3 time a month
on average. thanks for all your help and opions in advance.

I would lean more towards getting the clubs that work better for you now.
Either way, you need to make sure you get the correct flex and lie for
your swing. Even if you have to pay to get it done it will be worth your
while. Pinggolf.com has a pretty good swing configurator that will get you
in the ballpark.
Flex: unless you pound the ball or get out-driven by women, get regular
steel shafts in your irons. Steel is more consistent and durable than
graphite.
Lie: put some electrical tape on the bottom of the 7-iron, stand on a big
piece of plywood, and swing. The scuff should be in the middle. If it's in
on the heel the irons are too upright, and too flat if out on the toe.
Chances are you have and average build and swingplane and off the rack
clubs will work fine for you. But if the lie is not right it will hurt
your game. You should be able to get irons through callawaygolfpreowned
that already have the lie adjusted to whatever you need.
