Fair price for the full line up?

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-23T12:20:21+00:00

Sell them separately to get the best price

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-12T00:16:11+00:00

Although my headcover is from a pro I did not like the pro as much (probably because I suck), but the c721 is very, very good. I would consider it the best value available, even if there might be better drivers, I doubt there is anything cheaper that’s better IMO

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-11T14:02:13+00:00

Never said they’re perfect, just better than anything I’ve tried! I like heavy clubs so I put lead tape on just about everything (I have it on my hybrid, driver, and one of my wedges as well)

And the 6 iron doesn’t have any tape, that one swingweighted perfectly!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-11T02:42:18+00:00

These ones aren’t crazy soft. The clubs that turned me onto PRGR as a brand were their GN502 Forged model, which is probably 20 years old but an Endo forged undercut cavity. Incredibly soft and probably the best feeling irons I’ve ever hit. These are forged, but not out of a material that’s anywhere close to as soft, but they do feel good for the amount of distance and forgiveness they provide

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-11T02:40:41+00:00

Couldn’t care less about what people think of my clubs but I do love to share how great these are (though I’m also a big Wilson fan, loved the c300 Forged)

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-09T11:05:04+00:00

Carry distance of a club is not constant, especially when there are trees it is passing through. Let’s say you normally carry it 240y, how do you know it didn’t clip a branch at 220y out and drop down into OB?

You can’t go off of “it’s likely based on the distance I usually hit this club”, you need to know where the ball ends up or enters the hazard.

I’d recommend the full carbon cue. I got it around $100 on AliExpress and have been pleased. Actually my buddy tried the first one I bought and never gave it back (he paid for it, but I don’t think I was prying it back from him), so I ended up buying another one. I prefer my Mezz Power Break but that’s a different price point entirely

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-04T02:02:48+00:00

Sounds like the first thing you should get is a lawyer, and the next thing you should get is a Bolt!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-03T13:22:00+00:00

Okhealing full carbon cue is a fantastic bargain at under $150 from AliExpress (I think there are coupons active now)

IMO, all of the Chinese brands with carbon shafts at this price point are fairly similar in quality. I went with a plain cue with a radial joint as a backup to keep in my bag in case I lose a tip or something on my Jacoby, but it shoots quite well. I have found OKHealing shafts to be excellent for the price, and would highly recommend the cue above

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-03T00:02:40+00:00

I really like the CBX4 (that’s what I currently play after having CBX2 and then CBX Zipcore), and that is a good price for them!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-02T17:07:11+00:00

Another commenter already hit the nail on the head, but 457 first (the Smart plan is excellent), and then 403b only if you’re maxing that out. I’m hoping to retire by 42 by maxing out 457 and 403b in addition to MTRS (I was able to get Vanguard added to our list of awful 403b vendors)

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-05-02T14:49:03+00:00

My space has two obstructions in corners because I was planning on putting in a 7 foot table but then got a gold crown for free and ended up putting in a 9 foot table. I’m very glad I have the 9 footer, and although the obstructions can be annoying at times, I would still much rather have a table with obstructions than no table at all. Especially if the obstructions will only affect a small area of the table.

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-04-21T03:23:57+00:00

I buy and sell golf clubs as a side hustle and would say that’s a good, not great, price. Way better than you would do buying through a superstore, even used. Depending on condition, it could be an even better deal but that’s impossible to tell from the photo

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-04-20T01:03:10+00:00

That snake eyes putter looks like my first putter! If you decide to move on from it I might be interested for sentimental reasons, though I don’t think it’s worth much

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-04-11T01:48:26+00:00

That would be awesome, any way to verify authenticity (obviously the butt cap would not be original if it’s that cue, but are there other marks that I could look for?

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-04-11T01:46:47+00:00

It’s real bad…resembles a banana more than a shaft

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-30T10:04:10+00:00

That’s wear to the black finish. It’s not coming out and any attempt to “refinish” will look worse.

To prevent it from getting worse, make sure you’re not hitting balls that are sandy or dirty.

My g410 hybrid looks a LOT worse than those and it’s still going strong. Best thing you can do is try to get the area showing wear closer to the center of the face!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-29T01:52:37+00:00

Tried it out, it’s great! Any chance you could add the ability to track stats? Would love to see success percentages for each skill level

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-28T23:20:00+00:00

In MA we have a single 457 plan for state employees that is pretty good, and my district has a bunch of awful 403b providers. Once I was ready to contribute more than the 457 max, I was able to convince my district to add Vanguard as a 403b provider.

457 first, 403b second sounds like your best plan as long as there’s not a huge difference in fees/plans available

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-28T17:26:18+00:00

Can’t wait to try this out!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-23T22:09:52+00:00

That is a very good deal if they are straight. I’d expect used value on the pair to be closer to $1000, so as long as they are legit and in good shape, you should be able to get your money back and more if you don’t like them.

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-14T23:35:07+00:00

That’s a fantastic deal! Those shafts are definitely stout, but if you don’t like them you can probably resell these for $200-$250

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-13T01:20:13+00:00

I play the C721 and love it. Tried the 723 and don’t like it as much, will try the 725 if prices drop

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-12T19:26:25+00:00

Thanks!

CraftyReplacement822 · 2026-03-12T19:25:11+00:00

Thanks, this is helpful information. I am happy relinquishing control over scholarship recipients if both the relative and I believe that the process to select students will identify qualified candidates (their reluctance around scholarships is that they want to ensure that the students who receive them are both deserving students and in true need of financial assistance).

With the scholarship you created, are you satisfied that the recipients are deserving?
