  1. I echo the sentiment with T Squared. What shocked me the most is their putters are available for lefties! That is the worst part of MW testing (putters especially) is that it seems a large percentage of top performers aren't available on both sides of the ball. ER2 taking top honors seems like it's rightful place. But isn't it ironic that Sweet Face tech performed so poorly at 20' compared to the others?
  2. 40 year old Ping Anser. When I have a putting funk and am too stubborn to practice, it comes off the bench for a month and works a Miyagi miracle on the greens. Gamer comes back in and all is well.
  3. Good seeing all of you guys yesterday! I was holding my breath that the call would still be going at 5 when I signed on. I always forget it starts at 4
  4. Awesome news! Congrats on breaking into the single digits---with any good thing keep up the grind!
  5. Rob has probably already bought and sold this putter. @GolfSpy BOS Your move.
  6. Top of the morning gents! As a manager once said, "Monday is the day of greatest potential." Hope you guys have a great and promising start to the week!
  7. Hadn't really thought of reaching out to Callaway; but I did see on another site that Callaway had taken care of those others affected. However, that was back when Mavrik was still fairly new. I am not going to sweat over it. I posted more out of curiosity and finally remembering to throw a line out to the forum. My very weak thought was that it could be a face material weakness due to metal fatigue, but I don't have the swing speed for that, nor do I use 3w often enough. It didn't appear to my eye to be rust/chemical reaction, but that makes the most sense and aligns with the others. I appreciate it! The shape of the discoloration made me think it was the welded/brazed/superglued face. I haven't tried a cleaning product, other than vigorous scrubbing with both a cotton terry and microfiber towel--which made zero difference. I'll give a good cleaner a try and see what difference it makes. The discoloration reminds me of the faces from the wooden-wood days.
  8. I didn't know this until just now, apparently it was a problem with Mavrik fairway woods. I am not the world's best but I do take extra care of putter and driver!
  9. Got a question for all of you guys. Metallurgy, material science and the like is way beyond my pay grade. Do any of you guys know what would cause the discoloration going on with my 3w? It was all the same shade of gray a couple of years ago. This has been changing for the last year iirc.
  10. Top of the rainy morning fellas! Coffee time is here, with metric football kick off in 10 minutes. Here's to a great weekend! You guys that have dry and warm weather, please hit an extra bag of balls for me.
  11. Top of the morning fellas! Hope the week is going well!
  12. One more video for your viewing pleasure. This one gives a little more insight as compared to the first video plus it has our old HQ Spy Harry running Paddy through the Fit AI system.
  13. I recently moved from D7s to the previous gen Staff CB, and I love them so far. I know Srixons have a great and well earned reputation, you can't go wrong either way!
  14. First 7 minutes or so give a pretty great look at the system. Looking forward in seeing results from those of you who can try it out. I'm going to try and do the same!
  15. You got it! I was building a dream set the other day. Can confirm they had lefty options in stock then
  16. They are both available for lefties through the custom order part of Wilson's website (as of a couple of days ago)
  17. Anyone have a chance to test the new FitAI system yet?
  18. Are you asking about the woods/hybrids or irons? The Carbon driver has been phenomenal for me. It kicked a long seated Ping G410+ out of my bag. I have noticed a fairly consistent 10-15yd gain in distance; my misses seem to similar to what they were with my Ping except for bad swing slice. It is a little worse, but that's my only real gripe. Absolutely love the driver and glad I gave it a chance because it is firmly in my bag now.
  19. Great article Rob! Fun seeing familiar names on the main site. If it weren't for Pinehurst last year I wouldn't have heard of them. McGolf had a Makefield and a LAB Mezz Max in his bag. I could comfortably game either one based on performance. Highly recommend anyone looking for a putter to give this home-delivery fit/putter trial a go. It is an unconventional looking putter, but the Makefield guys have done their homework. There is something to their wizardry weighting system.
  20. Bottom of the morning fellas! Weather is warming up here, which means longer days and golf after work is not far away. Hope your week is going well!
  21. Welcome to the forum! Always good to see another member on the correct side of the ball
  22. Rob, at this point how are you not on the tour validation schedule? With your order history and timing they might as well ship one to your door the same time they do Spieth, JT, and crew.
  23. Those OG Ping Glides were hugely underrated! Are these all from Canada?
  24. Paging @Yellow Ball, couldn't give Tom just one little wiggle to the cup? He treats you better than anyone!
