    buckpillar reacted to TJ Hall in 2024 New Drivers - What Is Your Favorite?   
    Appreciate the feedback…I will say the carbon face is growing on me.  I have some guys in my league that have them and have not had any issues.  My local shop has said the only issues they have seen is some delamination and issues with the crown of contact is primarily near the very top of the face.
    I hit the Stealth very early on and that face was incredibly hot…ball would carry (low driven flight) farther than total distance in my current gamer.
    The shape of the TaylorMades just fit my eye at this point.  I’m ok with the muted sound if the performance is there.
    Really want to try the Qi10 when my shop gets one to demo.

    Got a chance to see. Unfortunately not test many of the newer models. In terms of looks this may be one of the better years for drivers in my opinion. 
    Still don't love love the the look of TM, but the Max or non LS versions are far less pear shaped. I really prefer this change to the Steath. Also getting rid of the red face is a smart move. Again for me. 
    The Ai Smoke look far less marbly and almost a bit of a matte coating. The top has almost a grey look that reminds me of the SIM. 
    All in all well done and looking forward to getting them actually in my hands to hit and on the course!

    If you have a Sam's Club near by, they carry the Greg Norman polos and shorts pants at big savings. Keep an eye out as spring arrives.  I got shorts this past season for 12.00 Polos for 10.00

    Practice. That’s it. Sounds simple, and it is, and it isn’t. To get better, lower handicap, gain consistency, etc., one has to put in the hours working on their game. And while working on your game, practice with purpose. If you are hitting balls into a net, and have the benefit of a launch monitor (mevo, rapsodo, garmin, etc.) work on hitting to target yardages to dial in gapping. When rolling putts on a mat, work on line and distance control. Always be working on something. 
    also, as others have mentioned, playing as frequently as you can will also help in getting better and it’s fun.

    good morning all, 
    woke up to temps in the single digits, so big shouts to duke energy for getting the power restored yesterday. 

    a sincere thank you all for the kind words and thoughts for Tucker. He was a good boy and his memory will be a blessing for me.
    feels like a good day for a sim round on the rapsodo, so we’ll see how that goes. 

    have a grand sunday

    Rob, Good video, looks like the new techniques are pretty neat. I think you will reduce your arc with practice. I'm going to roll some on the patio tomorrow, was able to remove the snow today and then the sun took care of the rest.

    Some more practice today.  About an hour total, trying some new to me techniques.  Haven't been able to eliminate the massive arc I had, but have reduced it quite a bit I think, Allowing me better control over speed and distance.

    He has been lurking in our area for a few weeks now, managed to catch a photo of him spying the putter in the bag....had to snap it quick, therefore the grainy off focus texture....

    If I remember correctly the 7 5K had the largest footprint, followed by the Ai 7 then the milled Ai 7.  I wish I could find that picture again.  😂

    Loving the updates and comparisons - much of what is being discussed I’m seeing as well with the AI-One “Millie”…..it has even piqued the interest of the local Sasquatch to make sure these putters are really real...

    February can’t come fast enough!  I’m debating between the 2ball Ai and the 7db.  I had an original 2 ball years ago and liked it.  I wish my local Golftown had the milled to compare it to the Ai white hot.  Has anyone here tried both models?

    My local shop had one milled version (right handed) (blade version), putted with it just to compare sound/feel between the two, milled was clicker/firmer than the white…my preference is the white insert.  Couldn’t compare the real functionality of the insert since I was putting right handed and only rolled a couple putts.

    Being an oldster, lead off with Driver using a draw or cut to hold it against the wind, then hold the 3 or 4 iron against the wind to the center of the green, at worst 2 putt for par
