    bigsleazy55 got a reaction from MikeCeb in LAB Link . 1 (My first review)   
    I am a new member and really like the idea of being a club tester and doing reviews.  I recently purchased the LAB Link . 1
    My old putter was the triple track two ball. 
    I'd been contemplating a move for a few months and when I came across the Link 1 at the PGA store I had to give it a go. 
    My first impression upon taking it off the shelf was, WOW.  I love the strong design and look of the "magic" screws on the top of the blade.  I also loved the look of the black shaft against the steel face! the sight line on the one i have is not on the top of the club, I dont mind but some buddies did say that was odd. 
    So the look surely checked all of the boxes for me. 
    The feel was pleasantly surprising. I must say I favor a heavy putter over a light one for sure so maybe that is why I liked it.  
    I have not upgraded the grip or anything yet.  I have been using the standard rubber grip that it comes with. I was concerned with changing the grip due to all the "tech" in the putter.  With so many different putter grip options I figured I would stay with standard and consider a jumbo grip down the line. 
    I wound up going with the 35 inch shaft and standard lie angel.  I did not get fitted. 
    The price was a bit of sticker shock, but I was able to trade a few old clubs in during an event and really get some good value back. 
    After a few rounds and several hours of practice I must say I am rolling the ball much better.  I am still struggling on the greens due to lack of skill reading green, but my strokes are much more consistent.  I am still getting used to the blade vs a mallet. 
    I'd pay full price if I had to.

    Hey Folks! 
     
    I am a new member and figured I'd share what is in the bag for this season. 
     
    I am playing SIM MAX 2 Irons that I got fitted for at the Club Champion. (5-PW)
    I have gained some needed distance for sure from my old G10 pings, and finally after a year of play i feel like I am just dialing them in now....
    Still sporting the Srixon Z785 driver but looking for something new, not sure if I am ready to pull the trigger just yet. It's tough for me I like to play with the driver before buying lol
    Old school 3w Cleveland 
    Callaway Apex 3H 
    Clev Zip core 50/54/58
    I am light one club, but my distances are at a point I dont know what else I could use.... I guess that is the case when you are not very long off the tee.
