  1. Well just got it welded up! Still trying to figure out the best/most cost effective place to send it for refinishing. I'm leaning towards Continental Golf but probably need to figure out what finish I want to go with before deciding who to send it to! Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  2. Are you looking at doing full custom putters? Such as any shape and weight or are you just doing one shape out of different materials? Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  3. This is very sound advice. OP are you are willing to drop $550 on a new SIM driver and also willing to get fit for $150 but not looking at paying the premium for an upcharge shaft correct? If this is the case my advice would be to get fit for whatever driver works best for you and then possibly piece it together on the used market. You may get that same perfect $1000 setup for closer to the original cost + fitting fee. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  4. I have always wanted a JT Style flow neck Scotty X5 but the $600 price tag is hard to swallow. So with that in mind, I just purchased an extremely used Scotty Cameron X5 Dual Balance putter. I have a local guy that can weld a flow neck on it for me but I still need to figure out where to send it to have the dings taken out and have it refinished. I went dual balance for the extra headweight in case the dings caused a substantial loss in weight. Im also thinking about picking up a UST Frequency Filtered shaft for it. Hopefully I can come in well under the $600 price tag and have something exactly how I want it.
  5. Just purchased a LAGP TPHDe shaft. It isn't a perfect fit weight and flex wise but I have always wanted to try this shaft. I resisted for about 2 hours before finally caving. Willpower only last so long. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  6. While I have no problem agreeing with you on your first statement, I completely disagree with the second. While Garrett is in full pads with a helmet on, Pouncey kicks him in the top of the head. That helmet protects his head from impact but does nothing to protect his spine from being pinched and jarred from the being pressed down. Again I don’t condone anything Garrett or any of the guys involved did. I think it was a disgrace and we may have gotten a glimpse of their true colors, so to speak. With that said, I am not saying that Pouncey was wrong in trying to protect his QB just that the way he did it was wrong. Decastro had Garrett pinned on the ground when Pouncey kicked him in the top of the head.
  7. I agree that everybody’s actions involved were inexcusable! The only person that may have a chance to come out looking descent is Pouncey for protecting Rudolph. That said I think the penalty is more than warranted. If you want to protect him, throw Garrett off him and stand between them. Don’t forget that another offensive lineman (I forget which one) was already throwing Garrett to the ground when Pouncey came in swinging and then started kicking Garrett in the head. Deion Sanders tweeted out that Pouncey is a hero in the nfl locker rooms and while that may be true he should still be penalized for doing something against the rules.

  8. IMO it doesn't matter what the specifics are that caused the Garrett/Rudolph/Pouncey crap. Everybody's opinion seems to be based off of what side of the fence they are on. Did Rudolph start it? Possibly. Did Garrett start it? Possibly. Nobody know except them two. If/when the story comes out, it will probably never be the full truth. It was just a bunch of grown men acting like clowns. Nobody wins in something like this and the more it happens the harder it becomes to believe any statements issued after are meaningful. They are becoming nothing more than a recorded message.

  9. I will be sharing my thoughts on them in the sub70 thread. Hopefully next weekend after I get my new shafts installed. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  10. They have a great business model and if these perform half as well as they look, I think my search for irons will be over. So far the only thing I would change is having them slightly shorter heel to toe but that is easily forgotten. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  11. No I actually found the set on eBay. The clubs couldn’t have been used for more than 5 or 6 rounds. The 5 iron still had the shrink wrap on it. I was actually just going to buy new but when I went to pay there was no PayPal option. I found and bought this set before Jason got back to me with an option for using PayPal. I stuck with the used set mainly to save a few bucks. I didn’t realize they sold used sets until I seen the Tweet from them about a used set for $309. On a side note I did send an email Friday night about possibly purchasing heads only as I didn’t care for the tour v shafts when I tried them. Jason actually called me Saturday morning to discuss what I was looking for and to explain why they don’t SEND out heads only. He did however mention an option to purchase heads only and send the shafts I am going to install to them and they would install them for me. I prefer to do my own club work for the most part so I declined. It is a pretty neat option for those interested though. He stated that they really want to control the quality of the builds for their irons and I don’t think I can blame him for that. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  12. I had this box delivered this week! Inside were a beautiful used 5-PW set of 699's. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  13. No worries. Had you said that to begin with I wouldn't have commented but I still stand by what I said. If I was the seller the only way it goes to eBay for you is if your covering the fees or I really needed to sell it as that is a big chunk of change in fees. Good luck. Hope you guys can make a deal.

  14. Not trying to tell you how to do business but you don’t need to go through eBay to get the PayPal protection. As long as you use PayPal goods and services you are protected. I’m guessing the going through eBay thing will be a deal breaker as they charge 10% seller fees and that equate to almost $500 on this monitor. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  15. I like it, all focus! Look at the hole to putt and look at the keys to play. What sheet music!?! Very nice Kirke Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  16. Umm no! [emoji1304] Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  17. After watching the course vlog I just have 2 questions for @Kirke. Do you give lessons? Also can you teach me this fearless putting stroke? That is all!
  18. I'm really starting to post in this topic too often! I was planning on just finishing the year out without a driver and just using my F85 5 wood. It is 40 yards shorter than driver but at least it is straight. I happened across a m3 440 and a diamana bf and thought why not. According to SWMBO, I have a problem when there is money in my PayPal cuz I can't resist buying golf equipment. Lol I also purchased a PXG Gunboat H Gen1 putter. Mainly so after I make a putt I can yell "Kaboom Baby!" [emoji23] Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  19. I'm happy to report that after scores of almost 100 in back to back rounds, my swing returned today. I shot a 39/40. It could have been a 39/36 if my short game wouldn't have left me for a couple holes. I was 10' off the green in 2 on the par 5 4th, and almost drove the next 2 300yd par 4's leaving myself less than 30' eagle chips on the 3 holes. I didn't manage 1 birdie out of them 3 holes. I also gave away 1 shot on the par 5 9th after a wayward tee shot. Instead of just playing back to the fairway and playing for par, I tried the miracle shot and hit a tree. My driving and irons were on point today but my short game which is usually my strength let me down. I'm thinking I need a new wedge and putter and then all will be right with the world!

  20. I tried that this time for football but I still ended up second guessing myself. The ability to trade is probably why I do better at fantasy sports than any of the MGS pick ‘em contests! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  21. Thanks guys. I’m a little surprised to say the least. With that said..... As the Self-Proclaimed MGS Fantasy Guru, I would like to give away one big secret to this game. Trade away all the players that you drafted for different ones because your first choice is always wrong! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  22. And there is the proof that we are far from done. Nothing like having your guys combine for a +8 day in the championship. Gonna need another 63 from Matsuyama! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  23. It is a long way from over Stud! Plus I am like 1-9 against @GB13 this year.
  24. Rolled a TM Spider X putter while waiting for the wife to finish shopping and wasn’t hating it! Lol. I kept telling myself I don’t need a new putter even though I had about 50 putts yesterday! I also spotted the new Glide 3.0 Eye 2 wedge and really like the overall look and weight. Might need to look further into them. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  25. Well folks I wish I could post a spectacular round but alas today was the WORST 18 holes of golf I have played since high school! Shot a miserable 46/51 and lost 8 balls off the tee. 2 were o.b. and the rest were unfindable! The greens were lightning fast today resulting in a lot of putts. The worst part was I was striping everything on the range before the round and started with a 2-putt Par on the 1st hole. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
