    I generally pay $85 for a Doz Pro v and then I still feel like I'm getting a bargain.

    I use Prov v's mostly, have tried the Penta, a bit so so, if I am hitting the ball well, they go great, but found if I wasnt timing it, they werent that great (I know) Think I got a doz Pro V's for $60 on special at Rebel (about 6 months ago)<br />
    <br />
    Bridgestone also make some great golf balls, but I find I have the same problem was I do with the Taylors, not usually a fan of the Srixon balls, although I havent used the new ones.<br />
    <br />
    Corporate days are good as you can use a rock off the tee for distance and change to a soft ball into the greens <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

    I was a staunch Pro V1 user until last year. I had a crack for a while with some Bridgestones and Z stars. Hated them both.<br />
    <br />
    I have gone back to the new pro v1x and love them. I cant see myself playing another ball. Get them on the cheap at Rebel sports when they have a 25% off sale.

    Have just got a new RBZ stage 2 'tour' driver (previous driver was a Cleveland Launcher). So far have had 3 rounds with it and I have definitely seen an increase in distance. At the weekend I even cleared a fairway bunker with a miss hit fade - I have never cleared this particular bunker. It was cold too so it is fair to say I cant wait for summer!<br />
    <br />
    Has anyone tried the R1?

    <p>Couldn't control the driver if my life depended on it so played irons only for the last 8 holes.</p>

    🙂 Nice. I used a mates driver for last four holes on Saturday and it was the longest and straightest I've hit in years. Far too much flex in my supposed Stiff Flex shaft.

    <p>My biggest swing was in a collegiate final at Akarana; 44-31!</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Adams Golf was pretty big back in Faldo's day, made great fairway woods.</p>

    <p>Looks like I've got a couple of shots still to go then mate.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>I'm usually a bit more consistent so hope its not a new habit. At least those swings are going the right way. Its when it starts good and then turns to shit that its a bit harder to handle.</p>

    <p> </p>
    <p>Even when I was almost good, I was wildly inconsistent!!</p>

    <p>I'm in the market for new gear, it's all very exciting.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>The vast majority of my clubs are still my first set of basic Maxflis i bought of ebay for about $350. I updated my driver (and got a free 3-wood in the deal) to a Nike VRS last year, to great effect. Now it appears i am in the market for what is called a "Game Improvement" iron. Being a leftie i am severely discriminated against, especially up here in Cairns. Golf World had one fucking set, and it's going to be tough to get anything up here. The best the guy could do was to get a few demos up and let me have a hit, but i can't even get enough to take them on a course.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Anyway, based on a bit of research i am looking at:</p>
    <p>Ping G25 <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.ping.com/clubs/hybridsdetail.aspx?id=15153'>http://www.ping.com/clubs/hybridsdetail.aspx?id=15153</a></p>
    <p> </p>

    <p> </p>

    <p> </p>

    <p> </p>
    <p>Anyway, i am going to have a hit with all of these when the shop gets some demos up. Any tips on what to look out/feel for? Is it best to stick with steel shafts? any advice would be greatly appreciated</p>

    Unless you are having your 70th birthing this year, I would stick with steel. Too much flex in graphite. <br><br>
    I love new things. Lucky you. <br><br>
    I am biased towards Ping so I can't offer too much objective opinion.

    <p>The Pings look unreal (very important, if you can't play, at least look the part) and get great reviews. Don't think i have ever swung a Ping club though. </p>
