  1. I did one at Club Champion and it was amazing. When you get on the SAMM putting machine it will show you everything you need to know about your putting. They will have putter options if your current putter in not a match. They will also make sure your loft, lie, length and grip are the correct specs. Overall, I highly recommend Club Champion. They usually cost about $100 dollars, but they will credit it back on a new purchase.
  2. Maxfli makes the same ball without the alignment arrows if you do not like to line up your putts.
  3. I went to fitting and compared the TaylorMade Qi10 LS , Callaway AI Standard , Ping G430 lST, Ping G430 max and the Ping 10k . All of them were 9 degree heads set to approx. 8. The two best for me were the Taylormade Qi10 LS and the Ping 10k. They both produced approx. 155-62 ball speed and 1900-2200 spin on solid 106-110 mph hits . However, the Ping was more consistent and the spin stayed closer to the average when I missed. I tried the TaylorMade with the black 1k in Stiff and Xstiff. Both produced about the same results as above. I tried the Ping Black tour shaft in the LST and 10k in stiff and Xstiff with ok results (I averaged in the low 150's ball speed and 2200-2500 spin). However, when I put the Kai'li White 60x in, the numbers increased to the above results. I bought the 9* Ping max 10k with the Kai'li White 60x but I still really like the TaylorMade LS. It will be next on the list for me.
  4. Again, I will stay with the recommendation of adding 1-2 degrees of loft. If you like the 8-GW, then just add loft to the 5-7 irons. It will close the distance gap and give you more holding power on those clubs. I do not think you would notice the change in 1-2 degrees of bounce. Since it would only be about a $10 fix why not try ? However, if you just want to change the irons , I totally understand. I go though 6+ sets a year. Good luck !
  5. Here is a simple $3-5 per club possible solution. Go to your local golf shop and have them make your irons 2 degrees weaker (that model is already very strong lofted). Do not go stronger with any of the clubs. At your speed the lofts and lies on your forged clubs are probably out of wack anyway. Your 7 and 8 iron may be off from factory spec.
  6. I agree with the notion a professional fitter is better than tinkering yourself. However , keep in mind, the fitter is going to fit your swing you have that day. As an amateur , my swing varies from day to day and I have a different swing during a fitting than when I am playing a competitive round. Thus, I would recommend getting the fitters driver and fine tuning it on the course/after competitive rounds until you feel as comfortable as possible. Again, to me, both is better than either or.
  7. Wow , I do not know how you guys can keep the same putter in your bag for so long. I have a saying " If someone says they have seen the same putter in my bag for over 3 rounds they are lying". I rotate between 5-10 putters and I am always a sucker for the newest technology. I have tried just about every gadget putter out there. None seem to work for very long. It can't be me and my stroke can it ?
  8. I would also try the LAB DF broomstick putter. I liked the Mezz better on short-mid length putters and the DF in 45"+. I would recommend trying and getting fit for both before purchasing because they are very expensive.
  9. I have almost everything the same as you with putting. I went to a 46" LAB DR Force broomstick and it has really helped. I also practice with the Stack putting in addition to the Stack speed (same app). I think both really help. I have found the long putter really helps under pressure because it is more of a large muscle stroke. I would agree with the others , the short and mid putts are better but the lag putting is about the same. I used to play a 48-49" putter BEFORE the ban. However, I believe the 45-46" putter is a little easier to control when you can NOT anchor.
  10. Thank you. Sorry for wasting your time. I will check it out.
  11. I also use plus 1" irons. You also have to take into account the change in swing weight. Unless these were custom built to a specific swing weight , they should be about 6 points heavier. This will also affect how you swing the club and the timing at impact.
  12. Thought about getting a pair for my balance. At 57, it is not getting any better/easier. Has anyone tried these and did they help ? Thanks in advance and Happy New Year !
  13. Yes , they will all improve your speed. I have used The Stack, Super Speed and some knock offs. They all work if you use them consistently and put in the effort.
  14. I have done the Stack and SuperSpeed. They both work great but you have to do them 100%.
