New Gadgets

After nearly 10 years with the same irons, I have finally upgraded to a new set this year. I was fitted for the new Ping i15 irons and a new K15 3-wood.  I've been playing with my new clubs for a couple months now and I absolutely love them.  Not as forgiving as my old Callaways but I've picked up 20 yards on each club.  I can't wait for warmer weather to see how far I can hit these babys.  My previous distance with my 7 iron was 130 yards in the winter and 140 yards in the summer.  With my new clubs I am now hitting my 7 iron 150 yards in cold weather.  Can't wait to see what happens this summer!

I kept my trusty KZG 18 and 22 degree hybrids and I got my Ladies Callaway driver reshafted.  I don't know what I was doing buying this driver in the first place.  The loft is right for me (11 degrees) but the shaft was so flexible, it felt like I had a wet noodle in my hand.

I also got my first "techy" golf device this Spring - a Callaway rangefinder.  It helps when I'm 2 fairways to the left and I have no idea what my yardage is to the pin!

Hopefully the equipment upgrade will result in lower scores!!
