I joined the Scotty Cameron club last year and one of the items that came with the package was a green leather Scotty money bag and I sent it off to a custom shop and had them make a custom putter cover for a cousin for last Christmas. So maybe you can find something that could be made into a truly custom cover.

You could also check out the Club Cameron covers available online. I have the same putter/cover you have and went with this one:

I picked up a GoGoGo a month or so ago and it’s terrible. Mine does the same thing so I have to scan 5+ times every time to get a distance I think is accurate. It was $100 bucks, so I’ll use it for a year or so and replace it with a better unit.
I would avoid PrecisionPro as well. The GoGoGo replaced my NX7 that lasted about 3 years before a solder point failed. They don’t service them and I couldn’t fix it based on how they are built. They offered a coupon code for a new one, but I don’t want to spend $200-300 for something that’s only going to last a few years.
To put it in perspective, my 8 year old Bushnell V3 still works just fine. That’s a testament to the build quality over Precision Pro’s and other cheaper options. It’s in my sons bag currently. So my next is likely to be another Bushnell.

I thought the Smoke Black in a similar weight/flex was softer than the original Black. I liked the original and didn’t care for the smoke. I played the RDX in TX in several weights/clubs and found them to be more like the 6.5 flex in the original Black.
But like everything else, you need to hit them to know if it will work for you.

I have a TSi2 15* head I’d trade. Mine has some use though. I’ll message you some pictures later this evening.

Take it to the fitter and have them look at it? If that's not an option I'd be pulling the grip to examine what's going on.

For those of you that have a driving iron and a hybrid, do you feel like (off a tee) the driving iron is more accurate? I know a hybrid has more spin so it (if the lofts are equal) will hold a green better but I really just want an accurate 220 yd club off the tee for a few tight (30 yd landing zone) holes I play. My hybrid is pretty accurate but, as everyone has mentioned, has the ability to hook and I cannot really ever get it to fade.
I am more accurate with the driving iron on average but that is because I have a tendency to hook hybrids. I think I've had a terrible mis-hit 1 time this year with my driving iron. Last year and early this year I had a ton of terrible mis-hits with my hybrid. It might be the specific hybrid I had, but I've had bad experiences in the past so I tend to avoid them most of the time.

I think given your skill (based on your listed index) it is going to be head category (lower spinning options) and loft. I just went through a fitting Saturday on GCQuad. I'm a little slower at the moment (around 117 mph) but with a very aggressive transition, and ended up in TSi4 8* head turned down to 7.25*. That got me averaging under 2500 rpms with the TP5x golf ball. The SIM line wasn't low spin enough. The next closest out of what I had time to try were the Epic MAX LS and Cobra Radspeed.

I’m using the New Level utility and have been happy with it. I had the P790 UDI last year and they perform similarly for me. The New Level has a slightly wider sole, but they narrow the head as it approaches the top line so it doesn’t look wide at address.

... Fwiw, most loft lie machines do not have a slot or any other device to make sure every iron is secured in an identical fashion. I am very meticulous and use a Mitchel Tour LL Machine but I can routinely get a different reading on the same club when I bend a set, then after I am done go back and double check every iron. Being off 1* is pretty normal and I make adjustments. While you are correct and an angle is an angle, it is not an exact science and 2 different LL Machines can easily give you 2 different readings because they do not secure the head the same from machine to machine let alone the first or second time installing the same head in the same machine.
I use a Mitchell Signature and haven’t seen this issue. Though I don’t build for others so I don’t have a massive volume of work under my belt.
If the scoring lines in the club are level you can use them as a reference to insure the club is mounted into the machine properly. I guess the top clamp could allow for some margin for error in the loft (not lie), but I haven’t seen that either. Though, I’m not afraid of marring my clubs and clamp down tight every time.
I’ve even gone so far as to bend clubs numerous times going back and forth from the shop to the range at my club testing different lofts/lies for me across different clubs/offset and different shafts. When I put the club back in the machine I always got the same numbers I had when I bent it.
I don’t trust the OEM’s to get specs right, as I’ve never had a set arrive that was 100% to spec. But I don’t blame the equipment, I blame the staff. Either they are rushed to get equipment out or they are lazy. The tolerances provided by some OEM’s are for C.Y.A purposes.

How does you loft lie machine compare to theirs? There is a tolerance for the machines as well. If yours reads 1 degree flat and theirs 1 degree upright there is a 2 degree difference. Not saying that they shouldn’t meet your specs but there are a lot of tolerances to deal with.
If the loft/lie machine is properly secured and installed on a level surface there should be no "tolerance". An angle is an angle. If a loft/lie machine is off it's user error. Either from being installed incorrectly or not securing the club in the machine correctly.

I tried it and didn't find it to be bad performing shaft, but I like stiff/heavy/low torque shafts. However, I did return it because of the epoxy issues that happened with both shafts I received from them. The second I just returned for a refund, which they said would be no problem. Then I never got a refund. I eventually had to file a claim on my credit card to get my money back. I would say stay as far away from this company as possible.

He’s the fifth player on a team at a smallish university. It’s also a historical black college. The number of golfers that would be looking to be a number 5 at that school is probable in the low hundreds of that.
What coach is going to put a bad golfer in a team over a good one?
One who is looking for the coverage. I think @Berg Rymancovered the why better than I could have. Like I said, I'm not opposed to him playing, but I think someone(s) are losing out because of it. Maybe the coverage this brings to the school and their program will pay dividends for others in the long run, but to act like that's not what is going on is disingenuous at best.

How is he stealing someone’s spot? If there was a better player dont you think the coach would have put that player on the team?
Do you think international women coming to play college golf in the states are stealing a spot from a potential American woman getting on a team?
No, I don’t think the coach would have put a better player in that spot. The guy shot an 83 his first round out. There have to be literally thousands of potential college athletes without a spot that could out perform him. He’s there because of who he is.

calling NC A&T State "the limelight" is a stretch that a gymnast would be envious of.
This thread and all the media coverage is the limelight. It wouldn’t have mattered what school he played at, being a former NBA player will keep him in coverage for the foreseeable future. Probably right up until he’s done playing.

I'm not opposed to him playing, but I feel like there is some young potential player that is losing out so this guy can stay in the limelight.

Strong Lofted Irons
in General Q&A
Posted
I think it’s mostly a fitting issue. Someone with a slower swing might opt for lower loft to get some easier distance back, or they might need higher loft to get enough spin to carry. I swing on the fast side (~100 mph with a 7i) with slightly too shallow of an attack angle and was fit into stronger lofted clubs to get my launch and spin manageable.
