For crying out loud, Talk about nit picking :rolleyes:

Dont be ridiculous: you asked what I meant by less regarded,(with implications I was talking rubbish) and I gave you a detailed response which hopefully rings true for everyone who bothers researching the topic!
Why not simply thank me for clearing the matter up for you ?

Well i've decided to go to ballarat and have a look at some Top Flite clubs. It's a complete set with a bag, all new, for $380. They will be fitted to suit me too which is great. Good special from drummonds, a few hundred off.

What model Top Flite? My brother in law bought a set of the XL5000. Full set including the bag. Golf Mart have them in their sale catalogue for $500. They seem to be great clubs. We played on the weekend and normally I beat him by 10 shots. This time whith his new clubs we tied.

lol, not sure mate, they're the latest ones apparently. I just put my foot on them since they were the last set there. Going up on saturday hopefully to have a look and try. They have maxifli also there so plenty to choose from.

Pretty much spot on there, Friday night drinks at a friends place, 4:30am decided I may aswell just stay awake, getting picked up at 7 to go to golf. Got dropped home at 6:30, a little drunk and no sleep.

Couple of hours sleep that afternoon, BBQ - more drinks, 2am bed time, up again at 6:30, golf at 7. Walked the 18 holes, came up +2 (three ball ambrose), a few missed birdie ops, and some simple missed putts didn't help us.

Very sore today.

Well i gave the new clubs a whirl on a small 9 hole course and was rapt in them. Shafts are 3/4" longer to suit my size and they felt really good. Considering i haven't played in 5 years i was pretty happy with how i went. Looking to play Port Fairy links course soon which is my favorite around this area.

Bit Late, but!

I know that it is a bit late, but anyone looking at golf clubs could consider the following:

PAAX TRI MATRIX 3x9 STAINLESS STEEL SET - eBay Clubs, Equipment, Golf, Sport. (end time 24-Apr-09 21:09:50 AEST)

The manufacturer of these clubs expanded into the USA, but overstretched themselves and went bust. These clubs were originally selling for over $1,000, and are of good quality - a steal at $120 plus shipping. Note that the clubs can be made to order for length, a boon for the taller golfer.

The Golfers Den are also good to deal with from my experience, and per their Ebay feedback of 100% for over 1,000 customers.
