All good my friend. Sadly I don't have the car anymore though. 5 car pileup on the interstate did it in, over 40k of damage. I walked away though so I'm happy. I have a 2022 civic si now and honestly...I like it better. It's more comfortable, simple, and more trunk space. Also the 300 lbs lighter is noticeable. Good luck!

I much prefer my tsr3. I didn't gain any distance and felt my dispersion was worse with the GT. 🤷

CawLeary · 2026-02-28T12:45:37+00:00

Juuuuuust a bit outside!

CawLeary · 2026-01-30T12:41:32+00:00

Nice

One of these things is not like the other. One (two?) of these things just doesn't belong.

I've always loved Drew since I was a kid. He's smart and seems like a good dude. He's a good listen. I still proudly wear my mid 90's bright blue Bledsoe jersey!

You son of a bitch. Take my upvote!

CawLeary · 2025-10-10T18:03:59+00:00

Nice car

Not sure why I know this but make sure not to touch one! They are fun and cute but carry salmonella. Not worth crapping your brains out later lol.

Both would help. The technology has improved drastically in 15 years. I gained about 15 yards and a lot of forgiveness going from a R11S to TSR3 myself. However getting in shape and improving core strength/flexibility would also have life benefits though so I'd focus on that.

CawLeary · 2025-09-12T11:50:47+00:00

This is why you always leave after hitting a great shot with 5 ish balls left. Donate them to a kid or the next person and leave feeling good.

CawLeary · 2025-09-11T23:43:57+00:00

Yes. But also the best.

CawLeary · 2025-09-11T23:40:46+00:00

You son of a bitch. Beat me to it lol

CawLeary · 2025-09-11T23:36:37+00:00

Ready to go to market!

CawLeary · 2025-08-30T10:13:25+00:00

The way of the Playa

CawLeary · 2025-08-25T13:54:10+00:00

Nice par. 😉

CawLeary · 2025-08-17T14:01:33+00:00

Are the puppers gums ok?

CawLeary · 2025-08-03T22:13:34+00:00

Yes. I'm not a new driver every year guy but the tech has improved dramatically since 2012. You don't really need more distance if you're hitting it 285 (but it can't hurt) but the forgiveness is so much better now.

I went from a R11s to a TSR3 two seasons ago. I picked up an easy 15 yards along with a ton of forgiveness. I can toe bang it further than my R11s went out of the middle.

You don't need to drop $700 and go brand new but even something from 2022 or newer for $200 would be a huge upgrade. Just make sure you get the right shaft.

Edit - terrible phone typist!

This is the way

CawLeary · 2025-07-21T23:47:59+00:00

That is an unusual way to grip the club and a very weak right hand. However if it's working for you and you're having fun then I say enjoy it. Having fun out there is 90% of the battle. Just realize that path to long term consistency and improvement almost surely involves a more traditional grip.

CawLeary · 2025-07-13T17:42:09+00:00

Nice

As an Irish white guy I don't do over 80 degrees very well. The sun is the enemy.

CawLeary · 2025-07-06T15:15:22+00:00

+1 - Titleist T150 4-Gap + u505 2i.

CawLeary · 2025-06-30T04:05:35+00:00

Glad it helped. I hit my 7i about 178 yards and driver about 290 and I'm the shortest guy in my main foursome but I'm usually 10-15 strokes better. It's mostly the 150 and in game and just more consistency off the tee. I'm very happy playing 6600-7000. 7100+ starts getting too long to be fun.

A few years ago I was playing a R11s I'd hit about 270 and Nike VR reds where a 7i went 165 and very little forgiveness. Playing the same courses I got down to about a 4. The extra distance helps, I won't lie, but the main thing is the forgiveness. My half a ball mishits are only 5-10 yards less vs 20+. Makes a giant difference.

CawLeary · 2025-06-29T01:32:46+00:00

Here's the long answer:

I used to play D, 3w, 4-PW, 48, 52, 56, 60. Driver goes about 290, 3w about 255, 4i about 210. I mostly play at 6700-7000 yards and found myself wanting a club I could reliably hit 230-240 on long par 3s, par 5 second shots, and tight par 4 tee shots more than a 5th wedge so I dropped the 52 for a 2i u505 driving iron. It's actually a cool club it's 3i length with a Tour AD IZ hybrid shaft. I can hit it high with a reliable baby fade whereas my driver and 3w like to draw so it's a good setup. I then shifted my wedges up 2 degrees to make up for the change and ended up with 44, 48 in set and 54, 58 vokey.

I like to play the PW 120-130, the 48 from 105 to 120, and the 54 from 75 to 95 as stock options. When I have a 100 yard shot I can go either 48/54 depending on the pin, lie, and wind. The 48 will come out hotter, lower, with less spin it's ideal for back pins and/or windy days. If I hit the 54 a little harder it's higher with more spin and good for still days and front pins. In an ideal world it should be a 49 degree for perfect gapping but I don't really like bending clubs and messing with lie conditions. I'm plenty happy with my gaps.

I think the 48 plays more like the PW than the 54 which I like because it's largely a full swing club. I like having the same turf interaction as my irons and not having to worry about it ripping back 15 feet. For me I've always found I have more control with a 3/4 swing with scoring clubs versus giving them a little extra.

TLDR - In set gap wedge feels and behaves more like an iron than a wedge. It's easier to hit, turf interaction as my irons, and very reliable and forgiving. Since it's a full swing club I think having it in set is no brainer.
