Are Golfers Finally Starting to Balk At Driver Prices?
BigUrsus replied to Golfspy_CG2's topic in General Q&A
R580xd came out 20 years ago with a $500 pricetag. I'd say driver prices have remained fairly unchanged since. -
I've done CC twice and wasnt thrilled with the experience. I've done golf and ski callaway performance studio in NH and spargo in RI. I would pay extra for either of those over CC. Both prices for a full set seemed more reasonable and in addition both places modified my existing while i was their to put my equipment in as close to a fit as they could without major reconstruction. (bending loft/lie, adjusting grips, lengths, club weight settings,etc.) They also gurantee their fits and seems like places you could work with if something didnt work out.

Recommendations for putter fitting with Quintic in Massachusetts.
BigUrsus replied to Muckinfiddle's topic in General Q&A
counter point to your question. Putter specific coaching in mass? Also second spargo if your looking for non quintic fitting. -
Rocking a tour z6 non slope no gps about 9 years old. Assuming I get the latest laser non slope no gps is there any real upgrade other then maybe pin acquisition time? Optical clarity?

I guess in a sense. Father's day buy 2 get 1 and then prime day Bogo. 5 boxes for cost of 3. Almost same cost as the snell. Needed to go back to yellow. As a 30 year old with really high shots and perfect vision I can never find a ball.

That is a fair point. Let's learn from it and prepare for next time.

Just realized my long irons Fli-Hi 3i 19* & MMC 4i 22* both go the same distance of 230y. All parameters (spin, launch, etc.) are the same aside from 85 vs 105 foot height. 3W @ 16* is about 275y. Looking for a callaway maverik 2H for around 253y gap fill. Something a big more utility than a 3W.

Fix Your Chipping Yips With This One & Only
BigUrsus replied to jborchel's topic in General Equipment Talk
Chipping yips for me means im not having my weight forward. -
Has anyone done the spargo putter fitting in RI? I'm looking for a fitting i can leave with a full spec on and ideally one where they can critique my stroke.

Actually about to go for one down at Spargo once my injured hand heals up. Had one at club champion at the time i was gaming a nike method mc-02w or whatever the classic answer style was at 34". The SAM told me i was great putter and club champion tried to tell me a scotty with all the same settings (length, loft, lie) would be better. I opted to ignore this. Got a whole bag fitting at golf and ski and we squeezed the putter in twoards the end. At this point i was gaming a 34" answer and was told a thicker grip, 2-3" extension and flatter would help. Neither fitting i left with an actual exact spec or even exact tweaks to perform. As a result i basically ignored both fittings. Doing my own DIY fitting now more to evaluate my stroke. Eventually going to find my way to a full putter fitting hopefully from scratch to get a hard spec.

Poll: How Many Pairs of Golf Shoes Do You Own?
BigUrsus replied to Middler's topic in Fashion & Style
Only one but maybe i am in the wrong? Looks like i should invest in some more. Thanks for opening my eyes. -
I get playing holes based on where fans were already. Maybe they can cap holes in the future? Play a playoff hole 2-3 times max. 18, 18, 17, 17, etc. Add some variety. Change the tees? Really any variety would have been nice.

I walk 90% of the time. If i'm playing alone i will always walk. Only time i'm in a cart is if im playing with people who arent big golfers.
