Sub 70 vs Takomo - Which Clubs Should I Choose?

Introduction

I’m looking to buy a new set of clubs and I’ve been doing some research on two brands that keep coming up: Sub 70 and Takomo. I’ve seen some great reviews online, but I really want to hear from all of you about your experiences, especially with the Takomo 101 and Sub 70 699 models.

Performance Comparison

Feel and Feedback

When trying out a club, feel can make all the difference. From what I’ve heard, Sub 70 clubs offer a solid feedback on impact, while Takomo clubs are designed for a softer feel. If you’ve played with either, how do they feel on well-struck shots?

Distance and Accuracy

Distance is crucial in golf. I’m curious about how each brand performs at different swing speeds. Have you noticed a difference in distance and accuracy when using these clubs? Any specific models you would recommend for maximizing both?

Customization Options

Customization can be a major factor when choosing clubs. I’ve read that Sub 70 allows for some pretty extensive customization options. Does Takomo offer similar choices? How important is customization for your game?

Personal Experiences

I believe that personal experiences are invaluable in choosing the right equipment. If you’ve played rounds with either Sub 70 or Takomo, what are the big takeaways? How did they perform for you on the course?

Please share your thoughts! Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated as I’m trying to make an informed decision. Also, feel free to highlight any other models from either brand that I should consider.

Conclusion

I’m excited to hear your feedback and experiences. It’s always great to learn more about equipment directly from other golfers. Thank you for taking the time to help out fellow enthusiasts!

I’ve been comparing Sub 70 and Takomo clubs for a while. Sub 70 feels more forgiving on mishits, which helps my game a lot. They seem to give that extra distance too. Has anyone else noticed this?

I totally agree! Sub 70 has that nice sweet spot that makes it so much easier to connect well. Takomo feels a bit less forgiving, at least for me.

I’ve used both and I think the Takomo clubs are great for ball control. However, they require more precision. For someone looking for distance and overall playability, Sub 70 wins out.

That’s interesting! I felt that the build quality of Takomo is exceptional, but yes, Sub 70 suits a higher handicap better due to its forgiveness.

As a beginner, I found Sub 70 clubs easier to hit. I’ve had great experiences with their responsiveness on the course. Anyone here who started with Takomo and can share their thoughts?

I’m all about that distance! Both brands have their strengths, but for long hitters, Takomo has definitely impressed me. It’s like having rocket fuel in your hands!

Very true! The feel on the approach shots with both clubs is quite unique. Just depends on your playing style, I guess!

I’ve read that Sub 70 clubs are a fan favorite among higher handicappers. But for the lower handicappers, do Takomo clubs provide enough feedback on ball striking?

That’s a great question! I feel that Takomo gives fantastic feedback, but it might be a bit harsh for those who are just starting to find their swing.

Honestly, if I could combine the forgiveness of Sub 70 with the feel of Takomo, I’d have the perfect club! Maybe I just need to learn how to hit better shots? :joy:

I appreciate both brands for different reasons. Sub 70 can boost confidence, while Takomo gives a rewarding feel on perfect hits. It’s all about what fits your style and mindset.

Sub 70’s clubs have this palpable quality. But for those who appreciate a bit of flair, Takomo’s designs can make a statement on the course. What do you think influences your choice more, performance or style?
