The Package Set No One Expected! – Stix + Jack Nicklaus

29 comments

1. I remember the old Nicklaus irons. I’m assuming he wouldn’t put his name to rubbish. Looks a good set for beginners.

2. Those irons kind of look like the older Maltby mtf forged irons

3. Would it be better to have a 5 wood rather than a 3 wood in a beginner set?

4. I believe there is a new blade model STX Nicklaus with a scalloped back and toe weight port that looks beautiful….maybe you could rate that set….it looks like a beautiful minimal offset blade…Thanx.

5. 33 inch for a putter as the only option seems like a poor decision. 34 would have been a better middle of the ground option for global sales. Only a small percentage of players are fitted into 33 inch putters. I believe market data shows in the U.S. the majority are 35inch.

6. I'm really surprised they didn't carry over the big chunky grip from the perform set on the putter. I really love the feel of that putter. The 4H is my favorite club in the bag, it just clicks so well for me for some reason.

7. I wish these sets would include the gap wedge and leave out the sand wedge, it's more important important for the set continuity as far as I'm concerned and gaping for the set, anyone can find a sand wedge lying around or pick up a used one. And I like the sound of the driver, to me a good sound, looks like a good set for my youngest grandson. Good video.

8. Gabe, it's my belief that those shafts being whippy would cause you to hook it more?
   I can't believe how well you play with clubs that aren't in your specs, so don't beat yourself up when you miss your goal! 🐊🏌⛳️🦅🇺🇸💯

9. I think these are perfect for a teenager starting golf. And maybe the putter is also designed to appeal to men and women.

10. With all the respect to the Golden Bear, Not feeling it. It’s hard enough getting the new generation into golf,

    Stix needed someone closer to this generation.

11. They look nice. DCI goldish….??? I’d play these.

12. Having a hard time seeing anyone would want to play with clubs that have his signature on them. Overall, I don't think adding any players name to golf clubs enhances its appeal and only decreases it.

13. I have a full stix set now and i love it, i carry an extra sand wedge so i dont take the black face in the sand but theyre great clubs and look amazing, paired with the all black ask echo bag theyre the sleekest looking clubs ive seen

14. Jack Nicklaus is my favorite golfer of all time. I wanted to buy these so bad, but I'm just not a beginner golfer. I guess I'll just stick with my MacGregor Golden Bear blades I have from 1980 something. Glad you did this review! Hope this set is a hot seller

15. I’ll take a set of the Ben Hogan irons which are absolutely beautiful.

16. How did Jack put his name on these? Did he have anything to do with them, that would be interesting to know.

17. Look a good set of clubs. You had one of those days on the green. Everything went left.

18. I usually like your videos, but watching you hack with a beginners set was not one of the better ones. 😂
    PS – your eye was too far over the ball on your putts.

19. I bought the full Stix Perform set after watching your previous videos. I love them! I think it may be better than the Nicklaus set because I was able to customize it with stiff steel shafts. Love the putter that came with my Perform set. I think the Perform set is the best but this set may be the one only if you’re a big Jack Nicklaus fan.

20. James Robinson and Gary Martin played some holes with the $499 Vice set. The Stix irons definitely look nicer, but maybe the Vice driver and hybrid and putter looked cooler. Vice doesn't include a 3 wood, which may not be the worst idea in the world. A person could always pick up a $60 5 wood from Diamond Tour or Giga when they're up to it.

21. Do you have Vice clubs on your radar for review? Specifically the VG101’s. I would be curious how you feel after playing them.

22. The Nicklaus Compete 14 club set looks absolutely beautiful, just not sure if it's worth the $1500 price tag. Hope you do a review on those when they release.

23. Great lookin set especially with the "Golden Bear" logo throughout. To be honost i fee for a beginner set let do away with the 4 hybrid and put in a 5 or 7 wood. For me I can't hit a hybrid. I also can't get the feel for the Stix putter. Have had the 14pc set for little over a year and still struggle with the flat stick

24. Fantastic review, especially for a beginner….you really duplicated a lot of average golfer shots. Bogey golf would be great for quite a few people!! Awesome job!

25. Will you be doing a review of the new Vice Driver?

26. Love to see great quality complete sets to help get new golfers into the game. These and the new Vice set are some amazing looking options for new golfers. If you ever get a chance, please take a look at Logical One Golf. They have some really interesting looking clubs and their price point looks very low.

27. This group set looks really nice, but I have to say, the Hogan FW 817 feels like a much better option. I'm happy I bought a Hogan set as my second set for my second home. What do you think Gabe?

28. I had a package set of Golden Bear Nicklaus clubs as a secind set about 20 years ago. The woods are still around. The irons also had stepless shafts, but they got pretty rusty in a few years

29. The set seems to work just fine for what it is, I believe the putter would be out first. Getting DCI vibes from those irons!
