  1. I concentrate on an object in the distance on the line I want to start the ball and commit to the shot. Swing to that target is my only thought.
  2. I was just curious how many if any of you are still playing the Proforce V2 shaft. I've played it for years in my driver, hybrids & FW. It just fits my swing better than any shaft I've tried including the latest and greatest. The price is more than reasonable also.
  3. Manual De La Torre - 'Understanding the Golf Swing' & Harvey Penick's 'Little Red Book' two great books on the golf swing for us ordinary golfers without a physics degree.
  4. There are a few but, the Cleveland Classic XL driver comes to mind right now.
  5. I was playing the Cleveland Launcher HB Turbo before buying the PXG 0811. The sound to me is like a solidly hit baseball with an aluminum bat. Solid and not tinging but, a whack is the best way to describe it. I enjoyed playing the Launcher but, everyone on the course knew where I was when I hit it. I've played about 6 rounds and I still stand by my previous post.
  6. I haven't hit the Sim2 but for me the 0811 XF is the best driver I've played in quite awhile. Sim, F9, G30.

    Sub70 golf

    I'm currently playing the 699 irons & Pro Fairway 4 Wood. Great clubs and Great price.
  8. I'm working on hitting my irons higher so I can get those Pinnacles to stop quicker.
  9. I've been playing golf a long time and I still don't enjoy losing golf balls. I play the Callaway Supersoft yellow ball and it has very good distance, decent spin around the greens and costs $20 a dz. I'd go with this ball for now.
  10. I would recommend the drive to Purcell Farms. Ross Bridge and Oxmoor Valley are very good. Another very fine course is Timberline in Calera just a short drive south of Birmingham. The Valley Course at Oxmoor is closed until Oct. 30 but the Ridge is the better of the two IMHO.
  11. It's seems the courses I played years ago are still favorites. Tidewater, Glen Dornoch, Aberdeen, Thistle, Pearl (East Course), Carolina National and Arrowhead are some of my favorites. Have a great time.
  12. Driver - Cleveland Launcher HB Turbo 10.5* Miyazaki C.Kua 5R Fairway - Sub 70 Pro 4 Wood 16.5* Project X HL 5.5 Hybrid - Sub 70 949X 3H 19* UST PROFORCE V2 Hybrid F3 Irons - Sub 70 699 4-PW UST Recoil 660 SC F3 Wedges - Cleveland CBX 50* & 54* CBX 2 58* Rotex Wedge Flex Putter - Sub 70 Sycamore 005 Putter Ball - TaylorMade Tour Response (Yellow) GPS - Still Deciding which model to get.
  13. I'll stick with the OnCore Elixer. A really good ball which was just reduced to $30.
  14. 1. I have purchased the 2/3 , 3/4 and 4/5 King 6 hybrids because of your reviews and your recommendation that Cobra is making quality golf clubs. I've always felt this way but, they seem to be getting even better. I'm also going to be looking at new irons in 2017 and will be seriously giving the 1 length irons a serious look and tryout due to your article about them. 2. MGS has been great for the reason that you tell it like it is and give unbiased reviews of golf equipment and also how the golf industry is changing for better or worse. I trust your reviews more than the BIG name magazines because you tell us how you test and give the results even if it might hurt the feelings of the major OEM's. (Snell vs. Titleist) 3. Yes. These hybrids have helped me hit more greens in regulation and made golf even more fun. They have honestly lowered my score about 3-4 strokes a round. 4. By giving me added confidence in my game. I also know that I can swing my driver without coming out of my shoes now, because I know I'll be able to hit more greens in regulation because of the added distance, accuracy and forgiveness of these hybrids.
  15. I was lucky and hit the best drive of the day straight through both hills. If not I was told by the starter hit another or drop between them because a couple of weeks earlier, a guy had tried to play off the hill and fell and broke his leg. Great way to start and finish a round. Mike Strantz left us to early. What great golf course design and imagination. I also include Stonehouse (haven't played yet) and Caledonia which I have a half dozen times..
