GolfWRX Staff PUMA Golf has created a selection of custom Neo Classic Pro Type shoes for Ian Poulter to wear at the Ryder Cup. The Neo Classic Pro Type shoes are the style Poulter has been wearing since early 2012 when he made the switch to PUMA Golf footwear. Poulter’s custom Neo Classic Pro Types were designed to align with Europe’s Ryder Cup outfits. The Neo Classic ProType features PUMA Golf’s S 2C Pro Chassis, Carbon Fiber Shank and ArchTec medial support; which PUMA says provides the golfer with control, stability and power.
The outsole features S 2Quill Spikes with Performance INSert System (PINS) along with 130 S 2Quill traction quills and 50 molded spikes. The replaceable and molded spikes are directionally molded for maximum grip and superior traction while the PINS system help provide balance, feel and lateral stability by bringing the golfer closer to the ground. Along with the spikes, the outsole features a full length flex groove as well as 10 forefoot flex grooves and 4 heel flex grooves for improved flexibility during the swing and while walking the course.
The Neo Classic Pro Type in Black/White and White/Black is available at select golf retailers now. You have a golf trip planned in two weeks. One day after work, you head to your car to hit the range and get some grinding in for the trip.
As you walk to your car you notice your car has been broken into and your clubs are gone. You need new clubs for the trip but aren’t in a position to shell out the $2,000-$3,000 for a brand new set. What are your options? I recommend hitting the used market. Every year, thousands of used golf clubs go on the market. Some of the clubs had a rough life and some have barely been hit.
As an exercise to see what you can get for your dollar, I browsed one of the web’s largest used golf equipment sites (3balls.com) with a budget of $500 for a full set of clubs in my specs. What I found was really interesting.
Rules: 14 clubs for under $500 shipped. As close to my specs as possible.
Driver Since I play a low loft driver with a low launch, low spin shaft, I knew I was in for a challenge with finding a driver. Once I took a minute to search, I found this beauty of a driver. I remember hitting the Ping G10 back in the day, and it was one of the most forgiving drivers at the time.
Plus, it was very close to my specs at standard length, 7.5 degrees, and a mid-launch Grafalloy shaft. Wood While searching for a 3-wood, I had two things in mind, I needed a X-stiff shaft, and I needed it to be heavy.
After about five minutes, I found this great Titleist 913 with a heavier X-stiff shaft. Normally I play a 13-degree 3-wood, and this 3-wood would allow me to loft it down to get the desired flight. Really a solid deal for $50.
Hybrid In an ideal world, I’d be hitting a 2-iron or a driving iron here. The problem is that driving irons can sell for $100-plus fairly easily, so that was out of budget. After searching, I found a nice 17-degree hybrid from Ping with an X-stiff shaft. The shaft is a little lighter than I would like, but it is not a bad pick up for 80 bucks. I knew I would want to spend the majority of my money on some solid irons.
After searching, with the parameters being a 3-PW set with X100 shafts, I found this great Titleist combo set. I current play a MB/CB combo from another company, so this set fits well with what I am looking for if I was to replace my current set. All of this for $200. Wedges Wedge shopping was hard because I needed a lob wedge with good grooves and a gap wedge that wasn’t trash. Download database tools webscripts in java for mac. I got really lucky with the Ping lob wedge.
It is in very good condition which is really what matters for the grooves since I will be using it greenside. Since it is blue dot, I can get it sent to ping to be adjusted for my specs. For the gap wedge, I picked up a heavily used 52-degree. Ideally, I would have more money for a slightly better grooved GW.
Putter Can’t go wrong with a White Hot in my preferred length. Not much more to say.
What Happened To Ian Poulter
thewral: “New Level 902. Single piece forging, feel great, smallish head, low offset, distance lofts.”. naj959: “I went through a couple of sets of irons this year which included 765s, flyz+, and finally settled on the.Bridgestone J15 DPF.
There are some great reviews of these irons. The 765s are forgiving, but the j15s are even more so. They have a very thin top line, are workable, and are lonnnng.”. Caspergolf: “Take a good look at the Wilson V6, or if you are looking for something older, guys really like the V4’s that can be found as a steal. Way underrated irons. Soft feel forgiving and long for the weaker lofts they have.

No offset.”. Sonja Henie: “Very interested in the comment about the 745s being similar to the 545s in forgiveness. I’ve been very tempted by the 565s but might do better with the 765s.”.
