  1. It’s a fun driving hole but damn, that second shot may be the most difficult shot in the course. It’s uphill and into the wind. On top of that the green is fairly large but it runs at a 45* angle to the fairway with a huge bunker short left and slopes mostly back to front. I find the front pin location to be the easier but that’s probably because I usually come up short and a little right of that green.
  2. Recently sold mine. It was giving bad yardages and freaking me out. I started trying to confirm with my range finder and the S60 was more than 10 yards off. Never could figure out how to calibrate it but at that point it might have been in my head. Just got the V1 Game app.
  3. Old South is really nice. Bluffton in general is quite nice. Hilton Head National, also in Bluffton, is fun too. Though, their driving range is lacking to say the least. If you can get on Belfair do it! It was home of teaching professional, Carl Lohren. They have hosted the PGA Professional National competition. Berkley Hall as well! They say when Augusta National was redesigning their practice area they visited Berkley Hall for ideas. The day I played there it was 103 degrees and I could’ve spent the entire day at the practice area, it’s that awesome. On the island, Sea Pines gets all of the glory because of Harbour Town Golf Links. It’s an early 1960s Pete Dye and Jack Nicklaus collaboration. It ain’t cheap, and if you play do yourself a favor by walking and hiring a caddie. Heron Pointe and Atlantic Dunes are also within the Sea Pines community. Atlantic Dines was recently redesigned by a Davis and Mark Love. All of the courses in Sea Pines are expensive but if you’ve never been probably worth it. There are a couple of private course within Sea Pines too but I couldn’t comment. Palmetto Dunes is also a nice community on the island and quite a bit more laid back. They have three courses, an Arthur Hills, a George Fazio, and a Robert Trent Jones. They are a bit more affordable with a nice range at the RTJ course. Wexford is another private community on the island with a nice course and phenomenal practice area. A few of the holes have some spectacular views of the surrounding marshland. But the private yatch club and marina will blow you away. Michael Jordan and Oprah Winfrey used to own homes in the community. Hilton Head is a wonderful community. We’ve been going for years now with a few other families. Lately it has been incredibly crowded but the beaches are among the best in the United States. Honorable mention: Country Club of HH
  4. If you shoot Mike a text/video with questions about what you worked on he’s really good about responding.
  5. The problem with these types of fittings is the experience of the fitters is all over the place. $500 for a fitting and you don’t know if the guy has been fitting for 30 days or 30 years.
  6. You’re absolutely right, taking driver out of play isn’t a good idea. It’s always a good idea to experiment and it’s difficult to know what you’re doing correctly and incorrectly. But remember, you usually get what you pay for. Go get a lesson with a pro who uses GCQuad/Trackman and video. Then get out on the range and get to work.
  7. There’s a really description and overview on Mark Immelman’s podcast “On the Mark.” I too am interested in this kind of device. It seems like it’s biofeedback, training your body and brain (specifically your hands to go specific distances in space) through feedback (sound and vibration). I believe Mark has a really good discount code as well. But as I recall, the next podcast had a correction to the DeWiz code so don’t be discouraged if you have trouble with the code. I’m sure if email them they’ll straighten it out.
  8. Just heard about this device while listening to Mark Immelman’s podcast with one of the founders. There’s really not much information just yet but these comments you guys have posted here are quite informative. I’d like to know if anyone has more experience with the last part of Bill Pierce’s comment, specifically, with regard to setting and using the parameters.
  9. Hey Ben, did you get ever get any resolution on this issue? I’m in the same boat.
