I carry a Callaway Paradym set at 11 degrees at the top of the bag. My 3W is a Cobra F9, but set at 16 degrees (considered a 4W loft) Callaway EpicMax occupies the 7W slot A 'old' Adams a12 OS is my reliable 3-hybrid All of them misbehaved - at various levels - until I found an EvenFlow Green shaft fits my swing. Period. 55g Stiff in the driver, 65g Stiff in the FWs. ProLaunch Blue 60g Stiff shaft in the hybrid.

Thank goodness I pulled Ludvig Aberg in our Member/Masters outing yesterday! I certainly didn't do my job playing amongst the rice paddies (we had 7" of rain in the last week). The kid is gonna be a star! I'll keep my day job as an engineer & cancel my plans for playing in Augusta....unless there's a local muni course

I have a unique connection with Cleveland - my grandmother lived in Parma & my dad caddied at Ridgewood as a teen (he's 85 now). Thanks for introducing yourself! Get some rounds in before the next squall sweeps in off Lake Erie Joe

Yes, the V5 is a significant upgrade over the 'box on a wrist' V3

I haven't experienced this phenomena. For shots not on the green, I always take a practice swing, standing behind the ball & looking down my intended line, and have only had actual shots recorded/registered. See above. A shot is not registered/recorded when/where the club is 'tagged'; it is registered/recorded when/where the shot is struck with the club. Real-life scenario: I played cart golf this week - due to the 'flood season' we are currently experiencing. I pull a 7-iron out of the bag & walk to my ball. My watch shows '7i". I decide that I need a 6-iron due to the headwind. So I walk back to the cart, replace the 7-iron, pull a 6-iron, and my watch shows "6i". I take my normal practice swing, then step into the ball & strike it. Only 1 shot was recorded, with a 6-iron, from the spot I struck the ball (left rough). I did not have a 7-iron registered as a swing, a shot, or anything else - it was only displayed on the X5 while the club was in my left hand. When I switched to the 6-iron, the watch changed (appropriately). Again, no practice swings were recorded & the shot itself was recorded (properly).

ShotScope X5. No annual fee....considering I can't play for x-number of months between December-April without a snow shovel & heated cart or a bag full of hot packs

I had the original Odyssey #7 when introduced & it performed well....it just had a fickle owner. I went through an extensive fitting(s) this winter - various manufactures & various models, thanks to a very patient fitter at Club Champion - Indy. I settled on a Bettinardi Innovai 6.0. It's taken this pre-season to get re-accustomed to a milled face again (after a decade+ of playing inserts) but the roll is consistent

PING S159 wedges to replace my Cleveland CBX2 wedges that are now 2 years old.

I agree completely!

That beats our forecast (in Indiana): chance of snow today (so we covered the tulips AGAIN!), 50s this weekend, then 60s-70s for the days many of us work for a living! Congrats, testers! Yes, I'm jealous!! I scheduled a fitting for these next week at our 'local' PING Fitter of the Year - Bunker Run Golf Shop. The early photos & results have me drooling

@tony@CIC I noticed that playing with @IndyBonzo last weekend - we were playing the White tees but the only one the watch offered was Gold (shorter). I told Bonzo I picked the Gold & just played. Got home to edit the round & all the drives/shots were from the correct tees. @PhilM75072 I have told everyone that between yourself, @cnosil, @Northern Monkey, and a couple of other users, I've been able to glean all I need to be functional with the X5. Still waiting for the swing assistance

I paid $400 for my Bettinardi Innovai, but I believe I get a more consistent, predictable roll with a milled face than I had with various inserts and micro-hinges. Yes, it required an extensive fitting session & I originally went to purchase an Evnroll. Results don't lie. Get fit & try multiple options on multiple days to remove the variables.

Snap hook. Low grounders to 3rd base. The one fairway I hit, I intentionally altered my tempo. It was long & straight - I will admit - but not enough to displace a shaft I'm accustomed to & is paid for. Again, the is my opinion & my experience. I want to be careful to not disparage Newton & encourage everyone to experiment themselves. Personally, I'm not an Otto-Phlex guy either....I think the last tee shot with an OP shaft is still going OB right!

Well, different strokes for different folks, right? I was able to get a round in today & the Newton is going back Maybe it has to do with transition/loading (as @Javs was discussing with Angelo) or something else, but I only hit one fairway today It is a decent shaft but MY go-to is still my EF Green & I don't have enough 'disposable income' to have something end-up in my golf rack (with the other wedges & putters) It IS very nice that Newton even offers a Demo program
