  1. 40/42 and played the last 4 holes of the day at even par. It was a day that the T200's showed up thankfully. 1 fairway hit and 1 putt over 6 foot made for a day of scrambling. The wind was blowing a consistent 15-20 with some big gusts made for a tricky day off the tee. I'm not sure I like the Nemesys shaft as it really changed the feel of the head even with adjusting the swing weight back to the same. After having a mostly one way miss to the left, my 2-way miss showed up today. The irons and wedges were on point today and really saved my round. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  2. This looks to be @GB13 versus the field! Something along the lines of this!
  3. Well folks, it looks like he has come to play! A little cartoon GIF for the well played comment young man!
  4. I have no horse in this race yet and probably won’t, but if it was a betting man, I would think @GB13 would be the odds on favorite. With the way the last CCC went it is clear he can trash talk and seems to thrive at messing with competitors. And yes before anyone says anything, I can’t believe I wrote that either. Good luck everyone.
  5. Got the Nemesys today and she sure is pretty! I really like the subtle faces in the black part of the shaft. Super cool look. I took some pics then went straight downstairs to the golf room to install the pxg adapter for my Gen2. I'm hoping to get in a few rounds this weekend for my t200 review so this should get some play.

  6. That is what I tell my wife when a new shaft shows up! Lol Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  7. Yeah he is. I actually messaged him to see what his initial thoughts were. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  8. I definitely will post some pics. The few reviews out there are all positive and Matt from TXG absolutely smoked it when they reviewed it. I love the thought of adding mass to the head for more ball speed and forgiveness! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  9. I have a weakness for driver shafts and just purchased a VA Composites Nemesys 55 stiff shaft. The Devotion 45 has been slightly erratic and I’m thinking it may be due to it being a regular flex. Paid a little extra for 2-Day shipping so it should be here Thursday!

  10. A little update on this grip. Everything felt great carpet rolling it as well as last night on the practice green. Unfortunately this morning was not as successful. The swing weight with this grip is drastically lighter than the normal superstroke pistol grip. Duh it weighs more so obviously that is the case. What I didn’t understand is that it felt lighter this morning than last night. I’m hoping it was just me getting inside my own head but I’m gonna pick up a couple heavier weights for my Scotty to experiment with to see if I can iron things out. Quick hits: 3” longer but doesn’t make your putter longer so you will need to extend your putter to use it the way it is intended. Keep an eye on the weight as this may or may not effect the swing weight depending on your current grip. To use this as intended you will need to have quite a bit of forward press or play the ball further forward in your stance. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  11. Well finally found some resemblance of a driver swing today. Everything was still a push fade or a pull draw but everything was still playable. I was hit and miss with the T200’s today and was able to get some good feedback for the review. Now the putter with the new Wristlock grip was something I didn’t expect. After carpet rolling it all week and managing to get to the practice green late last night I thought I would be lights out with it. However for some reason this morning it felt different. The swing weight seemed drastically different than last night. I didn’t make 1 putt over 4 feet today. All of that added up to a 43/42 day. I scrambled well on a couple holes by knocking the wedge to tap in distance. Today’s round showed me that I have the ability to shoot even par when things are good and that 50+ is possible when things get off. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  12. I thought the same thing this weekend. The only problem is I don’t drink when I play![emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  13. No it keeps the putter the same length. I would think if you are going to use it for the intended purpose, you will need to extend your current putter. I used a long dowel to see if it would add any length to my putter and the shaft goes all the way to the butt cap just like a normal superstroke grip. The info from superstroke claims that you don’t need to do anything but install right on your current putter but that seems misspoken unless I was doing something wrong.

  14. I have had a bunch of different putter grips over the last few years and this one is the one that seems to stand out the most. I had the Contour Red/Black 104 and 75cc grips as well as the Contour Pro 104cc. The Pro was the best one of them for me but I sold the putter it was on before I had the ability to remove grips. I was thinking about going back to it until I came across the wristlock and thought it looked interesting. I'm gonna take it to the practice green tomorrow and see how it goes. I have carpal tunnel and arthritis in my wrists and hands and the bigger pistol definitely seems to take some pressure off my wrist from not needing to be so straight.

  15. It is definitely different. It is weird to look down the putter and see basically a whole grip past your hands! It is also slightly bigger overall than the Pistol GT 1.0. The more pronounced pistol really helps. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  16. I just received and installed a Superstroke Wrist Lock putter grip. I installed it like a normal pistol grip since that was the reason I purchased it. The end is a more pronounced pistol shape which feels better in my hand. I did hold it the wristlock way before installing it but felt it would require playing the ball even with my front foot or an incredible amount of forward press to work. The grip itself is 3" longer than a normal Superstroke and heavier but I really dig the feel while carpet rolling it. Also I believe my previous Superstroke traxion grip is fake. It feels completely different than this one. Almost like slick plastic if that makes sense. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  17. Got out this afternoon for what I was hoping to be a turnaround 18. Opening hole was a triple bogey while hitting 4 different trees! My mind started to get in my way as I thought here we go again. Took 4 more holes before I finally found my iron swing again. Driver swing is still lost in no mans land somewhere. Something happened to my putter grip as all of a sudden it started twisting while I was putting. No clue what happened and I was planning on replacing it with a wrist lock one tomorrow anyways but it threw me off. I caught a couple slightly toe side and I could feel the head twist. Still managed a respectable 44/41. If I can get my driver and wedge swing back and can keep improving my putting, par for 9 holes is well within reach. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  18. Yeah I knew I was in trouble when I started the day Quad, Double, Triple with 3,2,3 for putts. Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  19. Well they can't all be decent rounds! Snuck out last night for a quick 9 and then again this afternoon for 18 and proceeded to forget how to swing. 47 last night followed by 51/45 today. I had a 2-way miss going with every club including my putter. 1 had 43 putts today and that includes a bladed wedge that managed to hit the stick and go in! From the first swing last night everything felt wrong, Stance, Backswing, Downswing, and follow through were all out of whack. The best part of the day may have been the migraine that started on the 2nd hole! [emoji856][emoji3517][emoji107] Sent from my Moto Z3 Play using MyGolfSpy mobile app
  20. Got out first thing this morning for my 1st official round with the T200’s. Will discuss them in the official thread though. 43/43 today with another triple and 4 doubles. It all started off the tee today. In all honesty, today may be the first round since I started playing over 20 years go that I missed left with the driver on every hole except 1. Half the misses were still more than playable in the first cut but it was definitely a shock to the system. I will say this though, this was the first round with the Oban Devotion 45 gram shaft in the Gen2 so that may have been the issue. Hoping to get out at least once more this weekend but the forecast doesn’t look to cooperative. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  21. 2nd full round in and posted a tasty 41-39. Missed my downhill 15’ birdie putt on the last for a 79. Still managed to have a few doubles and 1 darn triple. The PXG Gen2 0811x is for real. Just need a new shaft to tighten up my dispersion. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  22. Late night eBay browsing has resulted in an Oban Devotion 45 03 headed my way. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  23. I use a hunting rangefinder as well as gps(for when I’m in the woods and can’t see the green lol). The biggest problem with my rangefinder is it won’t pick up the flag so I always shoot the front of the green. I’m hoping to pick up a golf one this year with pin seeker tech in it. To me that is the only thing mine is missing. To be honest though I only paid $60 for mine so a higher price one may be different. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  24. You could also use heat shrink tubing. I used it several years ago on a shaft. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  25. All good points in your post except this one. Shortening the shafts will make the lie angle flatter with no adjustments. It is the reason I play shorter shafts but have to go 1* upright to compensate.
