Titleist Golf Equipment Biggest Fan

I am all about getting great golf clubs for really cheap just because they’ve been used and they are a few years old. There’s really nothing wrong with them, scratches and dings don’t affect ball play enough to make a difference. What we really want with our golf game is the right set of clubs. One’s that make us feel good when we go out to the course.

For each golfer it’s different. For me, I know I want a set of traditional golf clubs that aren’t easy to hit. I want to work for the perfect shot. I want to be able to shape the ball. On a cold day, when you hit a shit off the sweet spot, I want it to hurt. But maybe that’s not what you want.

You may want a set of clubs that let you hit the ball straight nearly every time. Or perhaps you want a set of clubs that no one else has. One’s that were made strictly for touring pros. When you go to the country club, you want your buddies to be a little bit jealous when they look in your bag. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!!!! I want that too J

So here’s what I’ve found for you, the person who wants to fill their bag with rare clubs for touring pros.

This Scotty Cameron Putter my friends is the absolute most awesome thing you can find. Look at the lettering, the care that goes into these putters, the cool orange coloring to the typography. I can guarantee no one else has this.

Scotty Cameron Newport Putters are pretty much my favorite design that he makes. I personally use a modified oil can Newport Putter with a cut down shaft, to 34’ and a ping grip, the same thing that Tiger uses. Tiger uses a the platinum covering on his putter, which is a little bouncy for me. What I like about the oil can is that it’s soft and yet crisp at the same time. On another post I’ll find a really nice Oil Can Newport putter for you guys, but this one is about the rarest of the rare COA attached Newport Scotty Cameron Putters.

Whatever, $900 is obviously a lot to spend on a putter, but this is a collectors item. Just go take a look at the listing and see this Titleist Scotty Cameron Newport Putter for yourself!!!

Scotty Cameron Putter - Titleist is so cool

I’ve got a bit of a secret to share. I have always wanted the Titleist 962b, but I was afraid that I wasn’t good enough to play them. My logic doesn’t really make sense because after high school I played golf every single day. I played 52 holes a day and within two months I was a 2 handicap. I guess at that point, I decided to get really blades, the Titleist Tour Models like I was talking about in my last post. But if I had the choice to do it over again I would certainly have considered the Titlesit 962b.

These are great clubs. The Titleist 962b is a classic design with a bit of added forgiveness when you compare them to forged blades. The great thing about these clubs is they are so cheap. You can probably pick these up for about $100 and even though they might look a little used, they are still going to work great.

It’s interesting to look and hit these clubs even though they are probably close to ten years old at this point because you’re going to see just how small the club face really is. For control, these irons are great. If you’ve never played blades before, you’re going to be in for a completely different golfing experience. It’s more of a traditional relationship with the ball, the course, and the clubs. It’s more natural in my eyes because you really connect with it all.

When you’re planning out your shots, you really need to think about what’s going on there. It’s hard to hit these clubs, it’s no secret. But when you prepare for your next shot, certain things become apparent to your sense of play that wouldn’t be if you were just going to hit the ball straight every time.

Say there’s a sand trap on the front left portion of the green and trouble to the left. You’re going to need to take out a longer club and assure yourself that you’ll be hitting a longer shot 90% of the time than you really need, but if you miss, you’re probably not going to wind up short of the green and in trouble. Most people hit the ball to the right when they take a longer club because they don’t have the swing speed to keep everything in sync. Also because your club head is shallower and more upright with a longer club, the margin of error is smaller. With a wedge, if you miss hit the ball a bit, the distance will change in a smaller amount than if you hit the ball with a longer club. The same concept applies to your margin of error for hitting the ball to the left and too the right.

Anyway, I’ve always liked the 962b because of it’s sheer aesthetics. If you can pick these clubs up for cheap, they are worth every penny and I can guarantee you’ll have a new appreciation for the game and the thinking that really goes into it.

Titleist 962b

Back in the day, Titleist was a small company making some pretty sweet clubs for a select group of people. As Tiger became famous, the popularity of whatever sort of clubs he would play fueled the resurgence of the forged blades back into the golfers arsenal. Of course, this is strictly my opinion, although it's what happened to me.

When I was playing in high school I wanted to get a set of Titleist blades. The only catch? They didn't sell them to the general public. Hummmmm.... EBAY! I went online and looked around for months before I found a nice set, in good condition, at a reasonable price. Around that time, I believe they had a similar set, that was new, from Japan. But it carried a price tag close to 1k. And I couldn't afford that. Instead of getting a new set of Mizuno MP-29s, which are very nice, I decided to go with the very same clubs you see below.

Notice the way the "e" is written in the back of the club head. It's capitalized!

I have to pay homage to these clubs, as they saw me break par for the first time. Sadly, when I went to re-shaft them to fit my tall stature, the swing weight increased dramatically to something like an E4 (normal is D2 or something around there). So I had to give them up, and get the 990s.

Anyway, it's good to see these are still floating around eBay. Obviously the current price of $16 isn't going to last. But anything under $100 is a fabulous deal!

Remember I was telling you about how technology had advanced club design at a rapid rate, and while there are tons of new and great expensive clubs, you can still find really amazing deals on older ones with great technology? Yes? Well, here's an example. A totally ridiculous example if you ask me.

Titleist DCI 990b with Rifle 5.0 shafts. I happen to love the design of these clubs. They hardly have any offset, they play like blades in terms of control, and they have a bit more forgiveness than your typical forged set. The Rifle 5.0 shafts are quality.

Normally the first thing I would do after buying a used set on irons on eBay is get them re-gripped right away. Back when I was in college and high school, I used to order the kits from golfsmith and do it myself. But I learned the hard way that if you get the reminder grips (the ones with a reminder of where your hand should be, i.e. a little bump in the back) it's really hard to get that to line up correctly ;/ So do yourself a favor, take them to your local golf professional and have them do it the right way. But the grips on these look pretty good. So you may get away without it for a while...

Alright, 3 days left and the price is at $35 ?!?!?!?! What the hell? Are they for serious?
Buy these NOWWWWW!!!!!!

DCI 990B

Everyday on "Pick of the Day", I'll be bringing you some of my best finds on eBay for Titleist clubs, balls, and gear. Today is the first day and I can't think of a better way to start than with something small, like a putter! I've always been a fan of traditional design when it comes to golf clubs, and Scotty Cameron is probably the best at incorporating technology into clean and classic lines.

What I love most about the traditional blade putters by Titleist is their feel. When your putting you know when you've hit the ball on the sweet spot and if you mess up, you know where you messed up. We all learn by making mistakes. Right? I know I make about 98 of them every time I play.

Check out this putter and how awesome it is! I usually like to use my own head cover for my putters, I have a pretty big collection at the moment. But this head cover is pretty cool. I really like the look. Totally classic.

Right now the putter is going for $76 with 3 days left. If you can get it for under $100, I wouldn't hesitate.
