[Competition vs. non competition play]

I've been playing golf for 55 years. I've played in one individual tournament, a City Open tourney, and 10 scramble benefit tournaments, all at the same course. In the City tournament I came in 4th in the "A" flight, playing great in the Saturday qualifying round, and decent in the finals. In the scrambles, my partners and I always played really well, winning low gross 4 times, and low net 4 times. As my bio says, I'm only competitive with myself. I always want to play well, make good/great shots, sink a few long putts and score well, and I always want my playing partners to do the same. I love the game, not the competition against others.   

[Shaft testing by 16 handicap player]

I think it's very explainable scientifically by massive differences in spin rate and launch angle. Soft shaft spins ball WAY too much and launches ball WAY too high for this swing speed. Wrote this before reading joedeausen's posts. Totally in agreement.

[Anyone playing a 6 degree gap between pitching wedge and gap wedge?]

I have an 8 degree difference between my PW, 42 degrees, GW 50 degrees and SW 56. Oddly no probably gapping as I hit my PW 105 yds, GP 85 yds, SW 70 yds. Approx. 80 mph driver speed.

[Black Level Typhoon Eye ball]

I found a Black Level ball today. Says only Black Level with a "B" on side in a typhoon type swirl. No other writing. Haven't hit it yet, I play TP5 Pix and this ball is much harder in the bite test. Someone MUST know about this line of balls. Please advise or I won't be able to sleep. THX.
