Randall Robbins

Club looks good - only negative is that it and you are on the wrong side of the ball!

Sorry for your loss. Been there, take care and hopefully things will be better as time goes on.

Played it several times - best advice is keep in the middle as best you can, and it won't bite you too bad - get off track, and you are toast!

Usually 8 in the bag. But I may find a couple during the round which are on standby or to give to a playing partner or later go in the practice bucket.

Had a putt on the 18th last week for a birdie to shoot my age (70), but of course I lipped it out. Yesterday, shot a 73, and had 5 good looks at birdie and didn't make one. It's lurking out there for this year, just have to put it together.

By the way, there is a course in Ocala, FL (name escapes me at the moment) that has replicas of 12,13 and 16 with same set up and distances. Has holes from other courses as eell. While not the same, it did give the feel of playing those three.

13 - classic risk/reward

Haven't had this problem, as my last bags have had the velvety liner.

I'm using the Project X 5.5 graphite shafts in my irons, which have been soft stepped. Had been a steel guy before getting the Sub 70s, but after discussing it with Jason the Sub. 70 owner, we came to the conclusion that this set up would be best, which it has turned out to be. I have added the Best Grip standard leather grips, and it gives me a great feel and balance.

Hi, everyone, I am Randall Robbins, currently living/playing out of Middleburg, FL, which is just outside of Jacksonville. I have been playing for 58 years now, just turning 70. We get quite a few coastal showers, plus some good soak ers which will allow me to put the suit through some good conditions. Mornings can be cool and misty into May, so I might get a chance to see how the suit works in those conditions as well as when it becomes humid to see how well it breathes to not trap moisture.Additionally, after some of these rains the fairways are sloppy, so the pants will be welcome to keep my regular pants clean and dry. I will test this outfit in rainy and also wind to see how it does. Should I get a stretch where we don't get rain, then I will resort to the sprinkler/hose/shower method. Fit, looks and ability to swing comfortably will be evaluated and reported on. Finally, my current suit is a 10 year old Walter Hagen suit, so it will be interesting to compare old vs new to see what improvements have been made. Once again thanks for the chance to do this test/evaluation. Looking forward to getting started! Ok, here is a photo! The suit has arrived! Here are my first impressions after arrival. The items were shipped in a standard brown box, which , upon opening, I found both the jacket and pants to be well packaged in individual bags. Upon removing the items from the packaging I found them to be very lightweight, and with a very silky finish to the fabric. This likely will make the suit pretty quiet when in use, as I will see. The suit does appear to be very well made, with seams all sealed, and the zippers close up well. The sleeves have Velcro closures on the wrists to allow for a tight fit and keep the elements out. The jacket zipper even has 2 Velcro closures to further help seal it. The jacket has a pair of slash pockets, and one chest pocket, all zippered. The pants have 2 slash pockets and a watch pocket, plus a two button fastening system - one button on the outside, as normal, and a button on the inside as well. They also have belt loops to be allowed to wear as regular pants., I slipped on both items and found the pants to be well fitting and lightweight as I said before. I noticed that since they are made to your waist size, they fit precisely, but if you put them on over your pants, you would have to remove the belt, otherwise you can't button the pants. They will button if your pants underneath do not have a belt; of course, you can order a size up to accommodate wearing pants underneath with a belt. I found the jacket to be a little snug, even being an XL. However, since these are made with 10% spandex, they do flex a bit and would allow for you to still make good swings. Don't think I could wear this if the day was cool and I had on a sweater or vest. But, to be fair, I would likely take off the sweater, since the jacket with it's lining tends to keep me quite warm. That is my initial impression, will report more this next week, as it is supposed to rain on Monday, so I hopefully will get immediate performance data. 4/22/24 Ok, no rain as predicted, but it was a cool (56 degrees) damp and slightly breezy morning, so it was a good chance to see how the jacket performs both as a windbreaker and under playing conditions. As far as working as a windbreaker, it was great! Couldn't feel any effects of wind, no chill, nothing. Kept me warm until temps rose and I took it off. I can see that in cooler weather, if I wore just my thermal shirt under the jacket, as I would be extremely warm. The jacket moved very well with me, allowing for a full swing with no restrictions. Also, I found it to be virtually noise less as I made swings or moved around. Next I intend to wear the pants as golf pants on Wednesday to see how comfortable they are and how they perform. Stay tuned! 4/25/2024: Wore the pants just as regular golf pants, and they were great! Can't believe the comfort, quietness of the fabric, and the overall quality of the pants. The pockets are very deep, but easy to get in and out of for tees, markers and my scorecard holder. My playing partner was impressed with the look and feel of the fabric. The cloth does breathe very well, as it was a sunny day with temperatures in the mid seventies, but I never felt hot in the pants even though I sweat a lot - on days like this, with the vinyl seats on the cart, my pants will be soaked. In this case, only my underwear was damp, but not uncomfortable. One other aspect of the pants and greatly appreciated was that they have a zipper front. This of course is quite handy when nature calls, as it will with as much liquid as I drink during a round. At least you don't have to pull them down like other rain pants I've had in the past. Just wanted to mention that after the last pictures were taken, I went in the yard with the sprinklers on to get a quick read on how they reacted to a quick shower. The water beaded up well, and I was very dry. Good first check, but I really want some rain! (Never thought that I would ever say that) 4/27/24 Had a surprise coastal shower this morning, so I took the opportunity to walk around in it with the jacket. Rain just slid off or beaded up no penetration at all. Once I came out of the shower, I simply shook out the jacket and it was dry to the touch. This is really good stuff!

Agree with the fitting question posed by Java - if not, then you can have a local pro evaluate your game with monitors etc and get info that can help you with decisions as to length, shafts and other tweaks you might want/need to make.

Good going nice round!

When I get to you, my senior league will let me move up a set of tees, but not until then.

Thanks everyone unfortunately, now I'm no longer Sub 70 in age, just in clubs - although, it will make a shot easier to shoot my age this year! Lol

Welcome and enjoy!
