I spent the better part of my Saturday at a demo day at my former country club. Demo day is a club sponsored practice range gathering where all the major manufacturers bring demo clubs and accessories so the members can test drive the latest and greatest golf technologies. It's a terrific situation for anybody who is actively shopping for new sticks, like myself. A special thanks to my good friend Spivey who was gracious enough to invite me to the event.

I tried on Callaways, Titleists, Nikes, Mizunos, Taylor Made, Bridgestones, Pings and Srixons. Each had it's own unique selling proposition as you might expect from these top brands. I sampled and assortment of drivers, 3 woods and utility clubs. I also managed to swing irons of every size and shape. It was really fun!

The bottom line is that I'm torn between the Ping I-10s and the Titleist AP2s. The Pings are familiar to me as my stolen clubs were i3s. But the feel and look of the AP2s were absolutely fantastic. Maybe a few wise and generous Golfnoise readers could help to push me in the right direction. I can use all the help I can get.
