    Your location looks like you are not far from me. Addicted to Golf in Yorktown should have them now, I know Golf Galaxy in VB has them now for sure. And I would presume that Golf Headquarters in Chesapeake has them. I get it, not many golf stores for us here in VA. When I was in Florida I felt like there was a golf store on every other street.

    Not gonna lie, if Dejean is there you have to get him right? It’s later in the first round, but I think it depends on his pro day and combine if he goes to that

    If I can't find a good deal to golf in the morning, I will wait until the afternoon when the prices go down for a round of golf. This is in the summer of course. I also don't have a problem playing golf when it's 95 degrees outside as I take water, and have my backpack cooler with ice water in it to wet a towel down to use to cool off as well. I just put it around my neck or I dip my hands in the cooler. During the "Winter Rates" times I will find a course that I don't want to pay the price of the afternoon times during the summer and play them for cheaper. Some people shun Golfnow because of the fee on there, but if that fee is not going to make it more than what it would be to play there by calling and setting a tee time up at the course, why not use it?

    I will go and get that shaft just to start down my rabbit hole research myself.

    So idea time here, as I realized one thing. My swing speed based on the fitter I had said "your swing speed says you need an X-stiff shaft" I've went down that road and had good success with it in the tensei 1k white shaft I have. It's the 65g model, but I've noticed in my other driver shaft that I got from Dallas golf, which is a stiff Kai'li White shaft at 68g I hit it a tad more consistently. My mistake on not getting the X-stiff shaft, and that's not really the point. One of the golf stores has a Ventus 5S which is 58g and is not the velocore, it's just a stock option someone gave them. Do you think it would be worth trying that shaft for this experiment would bring any value to this thread? I'm not sure if they made a 4R version of any of the Ventus stock shafts, or I might be inclined to try and find one and test it.
     
    TL;DR should a stock Ventus 5S be considered for this test?

    Fellow Packers fan here! And a great question. Hafley seems to like to play some press man at corner, I wouldn't be surprised to see them try to add to the secondary (would love to see Cooper DeJean if he's there). I was impressed with Valentine's play this year and Alexander is an all-pro when he can stay healthy. Would also like to see Stokes fully healthy but who knows at this point. They could also look to add an edge rusher in case Smith doesn't come back for next year, and I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see them go after an OT if one they like is available. Can never have too much depth on the line.

    I'm only 11 pages into this thread, but figured I'd get myself down this little rabbit hole.
    Just ordered a PXG Gen5 driver 9* with the Motore X F3 5R2 shaft (thank you Hero pricing). Can't wait to get it in and give it a go. I was fit into the 6 S version a couple years ago, so I'm hoping that carries over into the lighter flexier version.
    I'm also eyeing the PLB and ProSeries UL. But then again, I'm also eyeing UST 55 Gold, Proforce V2 HL, and the Aldila 45g Orange. But we'll see how the Motore works and I'll go from there. I have a few of the PXG weights coming too in case I need to alter it for swing weight.
    Now to get my net put together in the garage and the R10 out of the box and registered. 🙂
    Let the Otto Phlex journey begin!!

    I've had this talk with a few of my friends. I brought up JH being a good QB coach and helping them get better. Andrew Luck became a household name pretty much while at Stanford when JH was there. When Jimmy left and took over the 49ers Head coaching job, he started with Alex Smith. Then he brought along Kap and turned him into a good QB, taking away the protesting he did, he started to fail when he wanted to go in for himself and not listen. This was evident by his play against the Bears I believe it was where he had 4 int's in the first half. Fast forward to JJ, yes a 4 star like Luck. he became a household name to an extent. The problem is we all saw how he played without JH as the coach. I think JH will elevate Herbert to be a better QB. That's my opinion at least. I still don't think there are that many teams that will take a QB in the first round. Again, that is also my opinion. As a packer fan, I'm just wondering what defender we are taking in the first round.

    I was relieved from duty, and new tradition has it now that three of us go to breakfast the Thursday prior to the drill weekend. So good breakfast will be coming so I can stuff my face. Writing up the unofficial review of the Wilson triad balls and I realized in my haste, I didn’t grab pics on the course. So I will delay posting it until I can get some pics next Friday on the course.

    You're currently tied for 5th, which is pretty great considering you only have Lowry and Harmon going.  Lowry is playing such great golf right now, it's awesome to see.
