  1. Have any of y'all experimented with lead tape on your putters? If so what was your experience like.

    I cut my putter gradually from 35" to 34" to 33" but I want to add some lead tape to the bottom of the putter head. If y'all have any photos as well I am interested in your craftsmanship haha 

  2. Agree. it's not the best but it's not the worst. In my town you are better off going to golftec than getting fit at dicks sporting goods. I had some old ping irons went to golftec and after reviewing some data I got fit into TM 760s. The most important part of a fitting is a shaft which they used the Mizuno shaft optimizer link below on a TXG review. they try to stick with shafts that do not require an uncharge and often times they will add the fitting cost into the purchasing cost if you buy from them.

  3. if you are going to toy around with putter lengths I would advise that you toy around with putter weighting as well. I had a 35in putter... cut it down to 34.. and then 33 and the weight of the club head is way off now. Might add some lead tape to the head to make up for the change.

    Thanks man. That color scheme is the exact one I’d like to try. Well see what Nike comes up with next spring when the snow melts up here. 

    The majority of my golf shoes are white however until these I barely noticed that on all my white shoes the bottom was black. I want to see what shoes they release for the masters these year. The US Open and PGA Championship were awesome.

  5. I have used these since they came out. By far one of the most comfortable shoes I have played in and own. The show fits snug to my feet and I do not have to over tie the laces for the shoe to provide stability. My only cons have been that in the white shoes the spikes turned yellow/green after a couple of uses. I enjoy collecting golf shoes and always wipe them down after I play to keep them as new as possible but that has been the toughest issue with these so far. The big spike on the back does look wired but you do not notice it when you are walking they are very similar to my nike infinity react running shoes.

  6. It all depends on what your putt tempo is. Also I am sure the type of putter you are using will also affect how to ball comes off the club face. 

    With me I have noticed my back stroke has to be shorter with a mallet putter than when I am gaming a blade. 

    One thing I always try and stay consistent with since I have started playing it to hold my follow through until the ball leaves my peripheral vision. I was told "hear it drop or watch it miss" and this is something I try to keep in mind whether I am facing a long lag putt or a short putt.

    You I have been impressed with the control for the lag putt but @TENBUCK is right, It seems to struggle a little in the 8ft-10ft range but its money everywhere else.  1.8 Putts per Green Avg last 3 rounds. Down from 2.2 putts per green. So far so good! 

    I can agree with that. One of my biggest issue with putting has been I either get great lag putt control and the short putts struggle or the other way around. 

  8. Spider Putter is a great choice. I have messed around with one a couple of rounds and I never feel like I am aligned wrong. I have definitely been thinking about jumping on the spider train.

  9. I have the Arccos GPS and a range finder. I tended to use the GPS when I am more than 150 yards away and just aim at the middle of the green but when I am inside 150 yard that is when I use the range finder more. I am horrible and gauging distance that I'll even tag 50, 60, 70 yard pins haha

  10. I recently got a sleeve of Vice Pro golf balls that I put into play this past week. However these balls were flying off the club head. I usually game ProV1x. My typical 56 degree wedge goes about 100-105 yards and I had multiple occasions where it was going 130 yards. It wasn't until late in the round that I was able to adjust by clubbing down to adjust for the increase in distance. I know these balls always have high reviews as a substitute for high end tour balls but has anyone else had this issue? Also do you think this extra 10-15 yards is worth it?

  11. What up! So I have a Ping Sigma G putter that I used for close to a year. When I picked it, I used their "No Arc, Slight Arc, Strong Arc" fitting bands and which the putter falls under the slight arc style. I later replaced the grip with a SuperStroke Pistol GT. Around June of this year I purchased a PXG Closer Gen 2 with a Flat Cat grip (Slightly bigger and the putter is face balanced). I have noticed that on the back stroke when I'm putting I can feel my hands fighting the putter head from twisting (my hands want to twist and the face balanced putter won't allow it).

    Do y'all think that the main reason my hands are fighting the PXG putter is because it is face balanced and/or if I were to change the putter grip to the SuperStroke Pistol GT I would get less resistance from the putter? I know some fitters say that by adding a thicker grip it quiets the hands. 

    Let me know!

  12. Check out the Taylormade P760s. They are a combo set that ascetically doesn't look off. Basically you have a combo of players irons in the PW-8iron and then slightly players distance irons in the 7iron-4iron. each getting slightly strong lofts.

     

    I would without a doubt get fitted though. Not just to find out what club head you should game but to find out what shaft model fits your swing.
