  1. +1 for Vice, should be able to get them easily in Europe
  2. Seems the thread is dead, but still wanted to provide some feedback: We went to fitting day and tested the US Kids UL, TS and Prodi G set against each other. Performancewise, the Prodi G was slightly better than the TS and heaps better than the UL. Makes sense, the UL is aimed at beginner golfers, just something easy to launch. TS and Prodi G are heavier, stiffer and about 0.5" longer, so a little getting used to it is required. But once she got it dialed in, she was 1 club longer in the irons and about 30m longer with the driver (vs the UL). Just make sure the added weight and length isn't causing any swing flaws. As for pricing, the TS series cost about twice as much as the UL and about the same as the Prodi G. The great thing about the PING clubs is, you can send them in for a free reshaft/regrip once... so it's 2 sets for the price of 1! So if your kid is getting serious about competing, let them have a go at the more expensive stuff... might make a big difference.
  3. Reviving this topic... My 9 y/o daughter will start competing this year in the U12 division. She's currently playing US Kids UL54" and about to outgrow it, so looking at 57" sets. Now, considering she'll play about 3-4 tournaments per month and practicing 3 times per week, I thought about getting her something "better". Trainer suggested US Kids Tour Series (little heavier than the UL) or if you want to spend more, PING Prodi G with their free upgrade once program. I saw a junior driver test video, where they compared the UL, TS and Prodi G and you could see there was a huge distance gain with the PING. So any experienced parent out there who did the jump from UL to TS/Prodi G and doesn't regret it? Appreciate any feedback.
  4. I used to play a lot years ago... but then they admitted to sometimes pitching players vs old replays. I remember a particular case where I played the same opponent 3 times and he made the same HIO in all 3 games... But that was years ago, maybe can give it another go...
  5. I believe Mizuno was a pioneer when it comes to combo sets... that was so long ago. Just think Titleist, Srixon and Mizzy do it in such a seamless way...
  6. Perhaps a little OT, but how do you find the S23 wedges? Probably more similar to the T100 instead of Vokeys, but how about opening the club face and tight conditions? I always had the feeling that cavity wedges are not that versatile?
  7. I've said it many times... I just can't get along with PING products... but after 3 out of 4 golf buddies insisted I go PING if I'm struggling with the driver, I gave it a swing for 18 holes and it definitely changed my perception towards the brand. Winter is coming, so I'll wait for the nice weather in April to get a fitting and see if the results are still there...
  8. I kinda felt bad for Scheffler... he seems like such a nice guy unlike others, wanted him to get a few points at least...
  9. Big carry by Homa... ballsy to take that unplayable, but it paid off!
  10. Homa in the drink... And JT still doing the hat motion to stay relevant...
  11. What an enjoyment to watch Hovland play, so effortless and he looks so happy playing...
  12. Are they celebrating while the their opponent still has to putt?
  13. Funny how JT and Co decide to not wear a hat to make a point under that sun lol
