I'm a huge fan of my G430 Max 3W. It's a rocket launcher off the tee and easy to hit off the turf.

Based on sheer looks alone, I wouldn't let that driver anywhere near my bag.

Just curious, did anyone buy these max align version of the Maxfli Tours because of the reviews?

Yep. Pretty tough course that they keep making tougher.

You only buy 36 balls per year? I played a muddy round yesterday and lost four .

My final review is posted!

Yea, I mentioned the efficiency…

Honestly I didn't notice a difference in total playing time. The course had a frost delay, but once we got out there, we weren't waiting on any holes and we didn't have any groups come up on us. So, all in all, it was about the same as riding.

Thanks to everyone for responding to this thread with your advice. I took my BagBoy Nitron out to the course this morning to play 18 and it went well. My back is sore as hell because I generally do not walk eight miles in a day (16K steps!), but the push cart really, really helped. I don't think I would've been able to walk afterwards if I had carried my bag. Now I just need to get into walking 18 with a push cart shape!

I just bought a BadBoy Nitron! Using it for the first time Saturday morning.

Callaway (and other companies) already saw the benefit of using AI to drive value in different areas because, as you mentioned, they've been doing it for a few years now. The reason they've marketed it so heavily this year is because of the AI buzz that was generated when ChatGPT came out and blew everyone's mind about what AI and an LLM can do. When it comes to golf equipment, AI in the short-term will be able to help companies make equipment more efficiently, more quickly, and at a lower cost. But don't forget that regardless of if a company is using AI or not in their product designs and manufacturing, all companies still have the same constraints, both from a scientific standpoint and a USGA product conformance standpoint.

To force myself to walk, and after extensive research, I bought the BagBoy Nitron and it'll be here tomorrow. I've had a herniated disc in my lower back since my mid 20's, so my biggest concern has been with carrying my bag for an entire round. Playing Saturday morning with it and I'll let you guys know how it goes!

What are your guys' favorite golf socks for walking the course? Taking recommendations!

So many good responses. Thank you for this one, Tom!

I play in a league Thurs nights that starts in a couple weeks, which is 9 holes once a week, so I’ll start out walking that each week. Also want to walk on some Saturday early mornings but I’ll let you guys know how it goes!
