The Nelson Classic is where my roots are. I grew up a few blocks from where it is now played. TPC Las Colinas was not my home course though.
I really want to know who plays with what clubs and why. I'm a naturalist. I love the sound of persimmon off a deep faced Hogan driver, and the fluid feel from a 1973 staff iron.
I have hit newer clubs, and IMHO, a line has to be drawn. But where? It isn't the ball.
Nicklaus says it is a combination of club and ball. He may be right, newer clubs are longer inch wise and are turned down degree wise compared to what I refer to as standard. I haven't had but a +/- 2 yard change in distance on my 7 iron for years. I digress, I'm stuck in the stone age sporting S300 dynamic gold at a D2 with what I mentioned above.
This newer stuff is cheating if you ask me.

Age of "Long Ball." Can't stand it. 320. Neutered the great courses. Still have my same woods, Titleists Acushnets.
(Ever compare old phonograph records (with the needle and all on an old stereo), with today's recordings?
