The problem with a discussion such as this is that you’re pretty much forced to go with a company whose Driver and Putter you are comfortable with. I love my Mizuno irons and hybrids, but I’ve never owned a Mizuno Driver, and other than a brief partnership with Bettenardi Putters, I don’t think Mizuno MAKES putters!!!

I am currently Callaway, but after attending the PGA Show, and hitting everything currently available, I am considering playing Ping. New irons and drivers very long and forgiving.

PXG without a doubt… even though I have never struck a ball with one of their clubs ha. Titleist does have the deepest bench of the top club companies, from driver to putter. But I still imagine those PXG irons being the best.

Tough one for me….Mizuno, Srixon or Ping are the irons I usually play but I don’t care for any of their woods, so I would probably go Callaway or Titleist being the most solid from top to bottom.

TITLEIST … for me, they produce quality equipment throughout the entire bag. Their drivers on through to the Vokey wedges and Scotty Cameron putter! For a second choice I would consider PING … but Titleist is my preferred equipment company!

Right now I’d have to say Callaway. I’m playing Apex irons and MD wedges, and that’s the biggest chunk of the bag. I think I could piece together woods, hybrids, and putter.

I would like to play 14 clubs…. and one from each of the many club makers. That would confuse everybody …. 😀

If I’m paying, it’s Ping.

But let’s be honest, shall we? If they were paying me, I’d take the best offer. The build quality is going to be excellent with any OEM.

Titielist…..all day everyday……while everyone else is making Vokey knock-offs and white/red colored Titleist wannabe’s, the illest continues to make the #1 wedges, the most solid and straight drivers, best feeling milled putters, and amazing Forged irons. There’s no comparison (+1 Mizuno, Srixon irons) for the total 14 club package.

Brian Knudson

On this episode of Club Junkie, I put the new Tour Edge Exotics Mini Driver to the test and break down the performance, forgiveness, distance, and where it fits compared to a traditional driver or strong fairway wood. If you have been curious about adding a mini driver to the bag, this one is worth a look.

I also dive into the new TaylorMade Spider ZT Max putter that was recently spotted and discuss the growing zero torque putter trend. Plus, there is a closer look at the new Project X Titan Yellow shaft showing up on the PGA Tour and what makes it different from other profiles currently out there.

Club Junkie: Ping i540 irons review + L.A.B. VZN.1i putters and Graphite Design shaft sightings

Brian Knudson

On this episode of Club Junkie, I dive into the brand-new Ping i540 irons and talk about where they fit in the lineup, their performance on the course, and who I think they are really made for. There is a lot to love — and maybe one complaint in the new i540 irons.

The show also covers the new L.A.B. VZN.1i putters that have started showing up, plus some new Graphite Design Tour AD shafts spotted out on the PGA Tour and what makes them interesting. Wrapping things up, I might swap a few shafts into some putters and talk through how those changes might completely alter feel and performance.
