I wish we had top golf here I hear there's one in Melbourne but I'm in Perth and it's always at least a decade behind

The thing that appealed to me about this x golf is that's it's $25 AUD a week and you get two hours per day in the Sim

Worst equipment mistakes you've made
Hindsy1987 replied to tony@CIC's topic in General Equipment Talk
I did this same thing also lost the first cricket bat I ever bought myself and comic books I try to forget about -
For me it'll be Rick Shiels that man pretty much single handed got me through the plague of the 21st century. For some reason I just vibe with his style of presentation, it definitely helps the man is very humble and that he's impartial in all testing. Plus who doesn't live the "Illegal" episodes the man is just a confidence booster imo.

Rookie player do i nut up and go blades?

In Australia sometimes all we get are morning sessions I've been looking into virtual golf for that exact reason -
Hi guys recently I've moved back up to the big smoke and have noticed a heap of "X-Golf" centres around, I know that top golf style outdoor ranges are huge at the moment and obviously I've watched a lot of Sim Testing via Rick Shiels and Co. What's the biggest obstacle you guys have when you go for the virtual experience? The only thing that I can forsee being a problem translating from the Virtual World over to the Physical one is playing wedges and such out of bunkers, are there tools or plugins if you will that change the nature of the hitting surface i.e. and this sounds stupid mini sand traps or thicker rough ? I'd love you hear your experiences, thoughts and any tips you might have ?

Just getting back into golf after two years out from injury and life in the way i got rid of my precious clubs (2016 Nike Vapour Fly Irons+Driver) when i fell into a bit of a depression thinking id never to be able to play again, a month ago i slowly started piecing together what i'm calling the "Start all over" Bag. Im still on a very thin budget so ive putting it together as i find things cheap on facebook or the local second hand stores. So far i've acquired the following - hopefully i can find some irons and get back out there soon - Nike VR_S Driver - Ping G10 5 Wood - Titleist 912F 3 Wood - Cleveland Huntington Beach 4 Blade Putter - Mizuno MP T-4 56 Unfortunately thats so far ill update this post as i continue Rebuilding the bag !!

Whats everyones thoughts on the Nike(Jordan) golf shoe offerings i like the ankle support but they seem like they would be too chunky to walk 18 in ? can you in theory custom any shoe to golf shoes like you can with bowling shoes ? apart from that does anyone have any preferred brands or styles i've tried Footjoy with no joy (my feet are to wide) and i'm currently just using the Brooks brand hiking trainer type things

im wondering about different grip styles for people with a smaller hand span although im 6ft with size 11 shoes my hands are smaller than average so i find i something have issues with rotation, im wondering what is the better type of grip to use ? larger as to be gripping the club equally ? using a wrap style grip or is there such a thing as custom or smaller tapered grips ? thanks guys

DeChambeau doesn't hit his 8 iron 200 yards

i hit mine 200 yards, sure i thinned it onto the cart path but 200 yards is 200 yards -

You are 100% on the money i have issues with topping the ball, i played cricket for many years so the idea of striking down on the ball i over compensate and think im going to hit the ground instead i top it, thanks heaps for the advise
