For all you guys looking to join the #HitSquad

A couple of weeks ago, Fox announcer Shane Bacon posted this on Twitter: So I replied by posting the video (above) of Kirke hitting his new driver in the snow (and made it clear that the video had been filmed earlier). Shane picked Kirke to receive a hat. It arrived today, and I hadn't told Kirke about it. So here's the video of him opening it and saying thanks to Shane for the gift.

Made the first ace at our Top Golf swing suite at the office. Hole 11 at Pebble Beach with a ladies six iron. One bounce and in it went. I am selling my entire bag and switching to ladies clubs. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Look who got a new hat...

@Bucky - I knew this would come for you! Great work and yeah it really is nuts - I was on the range today at my club and one of our mini tour players was with me - I was hitting driver all around the flag, some just short, some bounding past, that I measured at 242. He couldn't believe it - I was pretty close to where he was hitting his fairway wood (he's a notoriously short hitter - he drives it around 270). He has the SuperSpeed sticks but hasn't really done the program in earnest - he's rethinking that. This guy has some game - he qualified to participate in Monday qualifying for PGA events this year - (I didn't realize you have to do that but apparently there's a qualifying event for that)

I've been meaning to retest my driver swing speed ever since I saw a 1 mph drop from Level 1 to the end of Level 2. Unfortunately rain, snow, ice, and temperatures colder than Antartica have prevented me from going outside. My basement ceiling is tall enough to swing a driver but not quite big enough to hit real golf balls. I also don't have a net (ricochet city! ). I tried swinging with no target but received mixed results so I found a small piece of foam to use. It's still not a perfect testing environment but it got the job done. The results: I finally saw a 2nd bump and my average driver swing speed has increased to 115mph. That's a 3.6% jump from my Level 1 speed and a total speed increase of 10.6% from Day 1!!! That's nuts. Here's my beautiful foam target with the final driver speed this morning.

Oh yes

Dammmmit STUD you "made me" spend money!

No prototypes as far as irons go...whatever you are hitting there is currently available to the public

DawgDaddy is coming up today and I'm looking forward to seeing my old buddy with these irons in tow. I might even take a couple whacks with these bad boys

I put in "(mostly)" because she is now playing men's irons... TaylorMade Burner XD in senior flex. She did make an ace at the driving range in Tucson a few years ago, but i told her that doesn't count.

Thanks for the pics. The top line shots from left to right are, 699, 639, AP1, and Z585. Those 639's are nice!

Sneds should get like 4 bonus points for hitting it off the rocks and still making birdie on 18.

Oh man. Shouldn’t have clicked on the website haha. Wedges look fantastic! And the staff bag.....ooooh man haha. Really interested to see how they perform! Also hats off for Sub70 to pop in and offer feedback! Always fun to see companies post and interact! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

I will be making the 2:45 drive to Sycamore on the 26th. I scheduled a fitting with them so I will get on here and give you guys my uneducated 2 cents worth. I’m sure another member on here will be able to chime in on them as well as he will be coming along with me. He’s a much better player than I am so you can hear what a 22 handicap has to say about them and what a +3 handicap has to say about them. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Weather don’t know what to do around here. 72 yesterday’s high and 30 today. 18 this morning was a slap in the face. Gotta love working outside!! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

We have a northwest wind so the 50s are going and the 30s are coming back

Yea he really twisted your arm lol

Scout, ummm, "helping" me organize our golf gear before a recent trip... (..dog is thinking: ..if I block him from packing then he can't leave me again...)

Okay here’s a no no confession. I just finished a workout which means back to back days. If I hadn’t I would only have two in this week with one being the ASD yesterday. Since the ASD 2 that I’m doing is lighter than normal I thought it worth the experiment. Here’s what I learned: It took much longer to warm up! I was very slow through the standing swings - so much so I almost shut down. Once I got warm I hit normal numbers through kneeling and the double step drills even posting my fastest ever dominant red club swing - 105! (I’m not doing the full updates anymore as those ended with the stage 2 review but I’m still filling out the spread sheet for Daisy) I was total spent going into the last three swings and the best speed that I could muster there was considerably off - 108 when I will often have 3 swings over 110 on that round. All in all I wouldn’t make this a habit but also wouldn’t be afraid to do it again if need be. We’ll see how I feel tomorrow but I’m in reasonably good shape and suspect my body tolerated the work out fine. I’m playing tomorrow and work from 730 AM to 530 Sunday afternoon. That will be a demanding day and I’m not seeing a workout at the end of it. I’m seeing a beer, a lazy boy and a recorded golf tournament. :) Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Snagged up a #Hitsquad tee from the MGS store just now... https://store.mygolfspy.com/products/hitsquad-black-tee

Wow I don’t know how I have missed this thread. Traveling will do that to you. I will be@GolfSub70 on Tuesday. I can’t wait. More details so stay tuned! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Obviously she needs men's clubs...

Hard to complain about the weather, but the locals were bundled up pretty good!

Not a bad way to kill some time in Phoenix waiting for my flight...

Already a member but I do love the shirt!

Yes it was Brandon. He’s the only fitter at nighthawk and is really good. Also doesn’t push one brand over others

That's going to look fantastic with the DLC finish. I think once my head comes back, I'm going to throw on a black putter shaft and black grip too. Now I just gotta wait...

Sluggo I am as well as I have been drooling over them since I first set my eyes on the website. The 26th cannot get here soon enough. Their wedges look amazing as well and I’m definitely in the market for a new set. So far the front runner is the Ping Glide 2.0 stealth. The RTX 4s were good but the heavier head of the stealths are what set them apart from the pack. I currently have some Vokeys but it’s time for a change to something that fits me not what I was told I should buy without doing my research and testing other equipment. Lesson learned!

Very cool DP, looking forward to hearing how it all goes. I’m very curious how the CB’s feel on a good whack.. have fun!

Wife's not feeling well, so I have a friend in the office this morning.

Agree good buddy. I’m often wondering if they are just pushing protein powder and supplements on me for more profits. At our age I need to consider safe vs fast. Nothing wrong with chicken that is for sure

Forgot to post this but our new puppy, Rudy!

My putter cover came in today and it looks sharp! Thanks again to the folks at the MGS Store for sending this as a replacement for the tour towel. You guys are awesome! @Ping Apologist #9 I wish they would get that Heather hat back in, too. I like the other ones, but that one really pops. Hopefully once the release of new clubs dies down, we'll see some products restocked. I will still buy the towel once it's back in. Sent from my SM-G955U using MyGolfSpy mobile app

Finally cut bait with my hybrid and replaced it with an 18* Callaway X utility prototype. I really tried to like the Epic hybrid and after three shaft changes we still just don't get along all that well. So now I guess I will have two utility irons in the bag moving forward. This will officially set the 2019 bag and give me what I am looking for off the tee and in the wind.

Has anyone used this and if so what do you think?

Ok,I am an addict. I need to stop reading this forum and watching YouTube, although I love the content over at TXG. So there I was, content with my TS3 setup. Hit the F9 at a top 100 fitter, was impressed, but not enough to buy. Fast forward to all the hype around the Ventus shaft. Figured what the hell, I have a bunch of stuff to sell/trade in, should be no out of pocket expense. Well looking around the interwebs, I happen across JDs custom clubs. What do you know, cobra F9, Fujikura Ventus 6s, $549........so I caved. WTF. As an aside. Called Fujikura, and they couldn’t recommend JDs more. He’s based in Minnesota and so far the communication and experience has been off the charts. If you are in the market for new stuff,check it out. His prices are crazy competitive. https://www.jdsclubs.com Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Very cool. Color me green with envy.

Hit the range, bunker and putting green this morning. Also did my first ASD protocol this afternoon. I really worked on trying to simulate play after I warmed up - drive, approach, bunker, putt it out, drive, approach, chip putt it out. The one bummer is that our rough is dormant - I think Innisbrook overseeds it’s rough so that could bite me. I’m going to try and find some range time again tomorrow.

I’ve not bought anything new but I did inherit a PING Anser Putter from my father who recently passed. I’m not sure if it’s his spirit or they simply just got it right 50 years ago but either way I’m loving the way it rolls. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Been keeping up pretty well. Down about 15 pounds and really focusing on this not becoming the unrealistic diet plan that I always fall into. I want this to be a change that can be sustained. I’ve been playing basketball about 3 times per week and trying to lift weights 3 other days. Unfortunately had a bad finger strain on the court Monday so it’s limiting me a bit this week. Going to try and continue jogging a couple miles and keep burning calories. Good luck to everyone. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

I got on their website last night and put together a set of irons and wedges. It took all the willpower I had not to buy. They look so dang good. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Long story but we are actually separate companies. There is a different company/team that does offer "Sub 70" clothing and some other items. We do not sell clothing or other soft goods. We'll be strictly clubs, bags, towels and gloves.

Great stuff DD, really looking forward to seeing how they compare to Ole Grays launchers

I'm probably buying another shotgun

Reformed? really, I'm not buying it.. it's only January.. the season hasn't even started yet.. I'll give it 2 months.. LOL

My wife just asked me when I was getting fit for the new Callaway gear that was released and I told her that I wasn't switching my driver or fairway this year.......she was just as shocked as most of you gents are right now. #reformedman

By the way - it was a great idea to put a link to this thread in your sig. Thank you! I would have totally missed this if I hadn't noticed it in another post. Have fun with the winter testing and I look forward to your stage 2!
