My mates had a laughed at me putting a 7 hybrid in the bag for the first time on Sunday but I hit 14 greens and shot +1 taking all their money so I don’t care. Makes golf so much easier.
Too much ego in golf play what works for you. I now play 5wood, 7wood and a 5hybrid. Loving the forgiveness. Actually love out driving my playing partners and when they ask what I hit off the tee “7 wood”
Last season I dropped the 3i out and put in a 7w and 4&5hybrids. Move to MP20-MB’s 6-PW and have never been happier with the top down setup and gapping. Of course having said that I’m a complete magpie and tested the Ping I525 irons in an attempt to address my approach game stats to shade off those last couple of strokes to get into Cat1 for 2022!
Great vid again Andy. Our yardages are remarkably similar. The difference is, I've gone MP225 6 - gap (strong lofts) and added 21* and 24* hyb, then 54 and 58 wedge.
Loved the video great scenery, back drops and golf , great to hear your reasons for choosing the clubs you have intrigued to see what your going to do with the rest of the irons but looking a strong setup so far
I know few people who work for a sport's shop and they tried the Stealth on course for a few rounds, all of them said it tends to spin up too much and none of them are putting it in their bag. I have read this from people online too. I play the Ping Glide 3.0 wedges and was waiting for the 4.0 to come out, but given the IMHO excessive price I'll be looking to pick up some more 3.0 wedges at a knock down price.
Standard Stealth Vs Rogue Max seems a bit mismatched given the Stealth Max is designed to reduce a skice. Not surprised you prefer the look of the Stealth given the draw bias in the Max. Great view in the background at the end.
nice choice of the putter I have the Ping Fetch putter and love it.....my irons i ended up getting fit with the PXG GEN 4 P irons 6-GW...loved the feeling of them even over the Gen 3 irons don't get me wrong the Gen 3 felt nice ...then went with the sugar daddy wedge....excited about golf this season as usual but even more so now..... cheers from Canada
It has to be nice yet somewhat difficult to test so many clubs, it is great to try new clubs but also there is more trust in a club you have had a while and used on many shots with different variables. Enjoyed the video.
What are you using for a microphone? Its great sound quality in the wind. I agree you can't use the same shaft in every driver head. Great video quality and enjoy the new bag. Love the look of the wedges. Can you put links or details of the clubs in the description
Why not try the Rogue Max LS driver! No draw bias and a much more traditional shape with apparently the same forgiveness as the Max. I hate draw bias as my miss is left. Most is my face angle at impact. I plan to try the Max LS and the Stealth real soon. Now I can’t get rid of my older M2. I’ve tried all since then till this year. It’s 10.5 cranked down to 9, so it’s more open. I’m 66 and our yardages on clubs are real similar. I’d like to find a tad more forgiveness and yardage off the tee!
Nice witb. I would say stick with the pxg gen 3 if you hit them well, far better than that mixed mizuno set you tried a few months back where the irons didn't match as they were completely different sets creating a combination set.
Andy, great vid, currently game Glide 3.0, I love the W gride BUT is the W grind in 58 going to work for high soft/flop shots when you open it wide open? Esp off firm sand or ground? Im debating this at the moment, is it better for a W grind on 54 and maybe the T grind for 58? then all types of lies are covered?
I have a big problem this year. I'm playing stiff shafts and it seems to be hard work now. I've tried friends clubs with R and SR graphite shafts and it seems to be easier to swing them, with good ball flight and no obvious distance difference. But. I don't want to change by Gen 1 0311 irons because I have serious money invested in them and I like them. Reshafting the driver is relatively straightforward; the irons not. So not long to decide what to do before the season starts 🤔
Hey David, just Reading your comments, as I turned 72 I had the same delima I had to work to hard to swing the longer clubs. I switched to Reg shafts and I am having more fun a]while picking up 5-7 yds per club.
My yardages are similar to yours, but your Driver yardage seems low for your nice swing. I get 220-235 carry with my 3 wood (PXG), and I got 250-260 carry with my new Mizuno ST-Z driver on simulator (yet to try outdoors). I would think you'd get at least 250 with the Stealth.
Aren't you normally an S flex player? I was surprised to see you go with R flex in the Stealth, especially with a HL shaft which sometimes has higher torque and a softer feel. Any thoughts on what you'll do for irons shafts, maybe lighter and softer in those as well?
What an interesting set of carry numbers. I am marginally longer than you with 54 wedge to 8i, about the same with the 7i (and driver) but you have a definite edge over me from 6i to hybrid and a country mile longer than me with your 5w. Some of that maybe loftsw as I play i210s, but that does not explain the 5w - I clearly need some lessons with that club! Incidentally, why did you not include a 7w?
Is the shaft 45.5 or 44.5 inches long? I thought you said in an earlier vid it was -1.5 from standard length as in the shaft it self. Standard is 46" I thought???
Ah, mine at "Standard" build by PXG is 45.5" so I got another shaft and different model I liked the UST and it is at 44.5" so -1 inch. I control is a lot better and 240-250 carry is fine with me...I'm all about 150 and in and around the greens and the flat stick! Thanks for the reply and keep them in the short grass. ⛳
Slowly but surely you are leaning very much toward dropping a few irons and adding in a few hybrids. I get so tired of this silly ego stuff. Just find the equipment that works for you. Make fun of me all you want but my 7 hybrid from the fairway just landed on the green while you pushed your 6 iron. I made it a point to own a good driver, a good putter and a few Vokey wedges. Besides my lonely 8 iron all my other clubs are hybrids. I hit longer and usually stay in the fairway. Be serious about your course management. That alone will save you 3 or 4 strokes. If you can find confidence in your driver and practice the hell out of your short game you have nothing to worry about.
@@TheAverageGolfer yes which will give you a total distance…so unless you had someone standing on the fairway putting a mark where your ball landed then you’re carry numbers are just guess work …so … 🤫 🤦🏻♂️
Mate just play the rogue. Way too much shaft talk going to to try justify your decision for the stealth. Over the year I am almost certain the rogue would be better for the majority due to the forgiveness and getting more out of the miss hits.
Why do the best professional senior players in the world play Tour Edge? Tour Edge does not pay endorsements, the players use them because they are better than Taylor Made, Callaway, Ping, Titleist, or others. You guys across the pond need to check out Tour Edge because they are made in America, not China!

I switched to 3 through 7 hybrids 3 years ago. I rarely miss a green now. I love them. No bad lies out there with hybrids.
@@kevinshiel3439 Indeed. I play 4 wood, 7 wood, 9 wood, 5 hybrid. Makes golf so much easier.
Nice to see I'm not the only one. I ordered the Rogue Max 3 Hybrid and Rogue Max 5 Wood. I know the lofts are similiar, but they fit my gapping.
@averagegolfer bag sorted & on the move!!!! Great Production, always make the effort to tune in!!!!! Also the gaping looks great…

Loved the video great scenery, back drops and golf , great to hear your reasons for choosing the clubs you have intrigued to see what your going to do with the rest of the irons but looking a strong setup so far
I enjoy your in the bag vids Andy. You should do an end of year one, showing how your bag started and how it changed.
I know few people who work for a sport's shop and they tried the Stealth on course for a few rounds, all of them said it tends to spin up too much and none of them are putting it in their bag. I have read this from people online too.

Andy, I’m curious, on the 50* wedge, are you using wider sole and which bounce?
Standard Stealth Vs Rogue Max seems a bit mismatched given the Stealth Max is designed to reduce a skice. Not surprised you prefer the look of the Stealth given the draw bias in the Max. Great view in the background at the end.
The logic is sound, that course looks awesome

I've got the Oslo H and it's a brilliant putter. Beautiful feel, very consistent for me compared to a more heel or face biased putter.
It has to be nice yet somewhat difficult to test so many clubs, it is great to try new clubs but also there is more trust in a club you have had a while and used on many shots with different variables. Enjoyed the video.
Very nice WITB! Thanks and congrats!
P.S.I thought you might put the Callaway UW in the bag...

Will you be switching out all the grips to Jumbo once you finalize your bag? As always great video. Thanks

Andy, another great video!! I love my PXG 3 and 7 wood. I have a question. What kind of shoes are you wearing? They look nice. TIA
The shore are from Ecco 👍
@@TheAverageGolfer thanks for the quick reply. That’s really gracious of you!! Love your videos and always look forward to the next one.
I’ve just got my pxg 0211 st irons, absolutely gorgeous 👌👌 You need to test them

Reshafting the driver is relatively straightforward; the irons not.
So not long to decide what to do before the season starts 🤔
Reshafting is possible but not cost effective. So having a couple of fitting sessions this month. What's the best irons for us over 70s Andy?
Hey David, just Reading your comments, as I turned 72 I had the same delima I had to work to hard to swing the longer clubs.
I switched to Reg shafts and I am having more fun a]while picking up 5-7 yds per club.
You would love New Level 902 OS irons... You should contact them.. I'm sure they will send you a set.
@10:24 its a PXG 0341X Gen 4 for your 5 wood. Not the "0311X"
My yardages are similar to yours, but your Driver yardage seems low for your nice swing. I get 220-235 carry with my 3 wood (PXG), and I got 250-260 carry with my new Mizuno ST-Z driver on simulator (yet to try outdoors). I would think you'd get at least 250 with the Stealth.
Should give the maltby ts-1 irons a try they are amazing
Just bought some merch (cap & divot tool) all the way from Australia mate! keep up the good work! love the content
Really appreciate the support Jase!
Hi nice WITB! which golf ball are you gaming or prefer?
Andy, I can see you moving into the srixon zx7/zx5 combo. Or the wilson staff model cb for your short irons.
I've dropped my 4 and 5 iron. And am using a 7 wood and 5 hybrid
What a golf course! Beautiful views
Great Views, what Golf Ball do you use/
what dissuaded you from using the ping Harwood? that thing is a monster in a good way, especially short putts!!!!!!!!!
With Driver only 15 yards longer than 5 wood, does it make sense to just go with a 3 wood?
What shaft did you mount on the stealth driver?
I've got the stealth plus fitted with a kbs td xs shaft it's a distance machine and forgiving
Andy which golf ball are you gaming for ‘22?
I got fitted for a PXG 0211 5 wood and I love it
Have you tried the 17 degree hybrid. Awesome off a tee plus you can take plenty off it or grip down slightly. I love a 17degree
haven't been able to find a pxg 0311x 18 degree 5 wood. any ideas? and what is the shaft? thanks
What irons do you game?
Andy what ball do you use?
great video Andy and a very nice what's in the bag
I highly recommend Srixon ZX7 irons
Thanks for the yardage info on your clubs!
What shaft is in that PXG 5 wood Andy ?
Aren't you normally an S flex player? I was surprised to see you go with R flex in the Stealth, especially with a HL shaft which sometimes has higher torque and a softer feel. Any thoughts on what you'll do for irons shafts, maybe lighter and softer in those as well?
What shot tracer do you use?
Hey Andy, I thought you’d be playing the Mizuno 225?
Great video as always mate.! Your numbers are bang on the same as my. Absolutly superb chanel, keep up the awesome job mate.! Cheers from sweden !
Andy what shoes you wearing they look good 👍
Am I the only one who’s noticed a 61’ apex no matter what shot is hit? Gotta be a glitch, right?
Yes I picked up on that right away
How about your clothes Andy? Your outer layer looks good. What is the product?
Well done young Lad
What an interesting set of carry numbers. I am marginally longer than you with 54 wedge to 8i, about the same with the 7i (and driver) but you have a definite edge over me from 6i to hybrid and a country mile longer than me with your 5w. Some of that maybe loftsw as I play i210s, but that does not explain the 5w - I clearly need some lessons with that club!
Incidentally, why did you not include a 7w?
Well putter and 3 wood have earned their place. Nice one
Views on that course look amazing 😍
🔥 agreed!
Where is this filmed please?

@@TheAverageGolfer great view!
@@TheAverageGolfer you say palero at the start of the video? I just wanted the spelling.
@@chrisburke9932 apologies, I only looked at the thumbnail image! Yes it is Palheiro in Madeira

Is the shaft 45.5 or 44.5 inches long? I thought you said in an earlier vid it was -1.5 from standard length as in the shaft it self. Standard is 46" I thought???
Andy said a half inch short so that would be 45.25".
Ah, mine at "Standard" build by PXG is 45.5" so I got another shaft and different model I liked the UST and it is at 44.5" so -1 inch.

Thanks for the reply and keep them in the short grass. ⛳
WHEN IS THE 2023 #witb comin’?
OK. That 5 wood is awesome.
It's amazing how all your apexes are 61 no matter what club
PXG G5 coming I hear later this year. So hold off till then
And 2023?
All the clubs you showed had identical 61’ apex - weird coincidence 🤔
I talk to more and more people that have PXG Gen3 irons in their bags...and just won't change them!
