    DarrenF got a reaction from William P in What/How Did You Practice Today?   
    I bought a launch monitor, so my "practices" have become more frequent than my playing rounds. As a 60+ golfer, I understand that my swing speed is dropping, but I practice with the intent of holding off the decline for as long as I can. I am managing to keep my driver swing speed between 97 and 101 mph...for now. I usually practice 3 to 4 times a week and concentrate on maintaining a good tempo while pushing my swing speed up throughout the session. I can tell now when I've hit my peak, and can definitely see when I'm at the drop-off point, when the swing speed begins to step down.

    A coworker introduced me to MGS about a year ago when I was considering getting a launch monitor. As a 60 y.o. amateur, I wasn't looking at investing in a $20k Foresight, but I did want accuracy and enough data to see where my game is, and what I needed to work on. MGS provided the answers I was looking for, and prompted me to purchase the Rapsodo MLM2 Pro, which has been the best golf related purchase I've ever made. I have also been a part of club testing and believe that's been a pretty rewarding experience as well. The Forum is what brings the community together to express points of view, experience and perspective. All-in-all, the MGS setup is the single best go-to spot for separating the wheat from the chaff in regards to the golf space.

    I may be kicking myself shortly. I recently purchased a Bushnell Tour V6 rangefinder and it is fantastic. No problems, works great.
    Fast forward to last week. Played with a friend who was using his Garmin Approach S70 watch. The yardages he was getting were certainly close enough to the rangefinder to justify using the GPS watch, for yardage and all of its other functions. Naturally, I ordered one. (Insert eyeroll here).
    Long story short, I may be offering a good deal on a lightly used rangefinder. LOL

    I got an S10 for Christmas and it's absolutely fantastic.
    Being able to look down and get yardages to the back, middle, and front of the green is so convenient, well worth the cost imo.
    BUT... you don't get an exact yardage to the flag, that's where a rangefinder comes in handy. 
    When you're about to hit your approach shot, it's nice to get an exact yardage rather than just front, mid and back of the green.

    The 49° and 53° are part of my Titleist T350 set, and the 56° and 60° are Vokey SM9. I'm looking to get a 52° Vokey. I'm really happy with the Vokeys in my bag right now.

    So I have a 49°, 53°, 56° and a 60°. Pretty sure that I'm going to remove the 49°, and just use my PW. And I'm probably going to opt for a 52°. I need to get a 4 iron back in the bag, so a wedge must go.

    So I've been playing Golf Pride Tour Wrap grips for a long time, back to when they first came out. I recently overhauled my bag with a Qi10, Titleist T350 irons, and some Vokey wedges. None of these had grips that I liked, so I decided to try the Super Stroke Traxion wraps and I actually prefer these to the Golf Pride wraps. More cushion and just feel better overall.
