Something to be aware of, by default the Apple Watch will default to the phone's GPS rather than its own. This may or may not be a problem based on how close you keep the phone to yourself. To use the watch's GPS, you need to turn off the phone's. Putting it into airplane mode is one way.

nice!

Greetings. Do any of you who are using the Planemate also use the Siekmann pitching/chipping technique? Are they comparable mechanics wise? The latter has really improved my short game. I'm worried Planemate will screw it up.

I recently ordered one. Last year I did the Gankas online course with good results (I couldn't get the footwork right but dropped my HDCP by 3 just with setup, alignment, and general swing sequence). Does anything about the Planemate contradict Gankas' swing?

Just saw this. Do you still have it?

Yes, you can slide them in without taking your gloves off. I dont really do this though

I dont think the tile will influence it. I have a 10 or 12 ft birdie ball matt. NEVER use it. At all.

Check out FJ Stasof Winter gloves. Interlocking is not a problem. The price may be.

Footjoy just released some Stasof Winter grips. They are fantastic. Like to high quality "normal" gloves with just a bit of fleece on the top of the hand. They do not feel thick like normal gloves. The downside is they cost just as much as two high quality gloves would.

We are about a month or two away from cold golf here in the north. Can anyone recommend good winter golf gloves? The best I've done to date is FJ Rain gloves. Alternatives have been a bit too thick in the wrong spots for an interlocking grip. I'm considering football receiver gloves!

You will find that the Eye 2 shafts are very difficult to pull. Have patience.

You can get a (relatively) cheap tumbler and media from Harbor Freight to get back that really nice tumbled finish that the Eye 2 had. I used it for an Eye 2 restoration that I did and I was pretty happy with the results. Here's another idea I came across. Note: I have NOT tried this one, but I intend to on some wedges: DIY Sandblaster $10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6L_ArXCbYs

I have Oakley Half Jacket Prizm Dark Golf lenses and Maui Jim's with rose glass lenses. The Oakley are fine, but the Maui Jim's are superior in every way. Unfortunately their price reflects that.

Those were new balls? Glad to hear both companies took care of the issue.

Interesting question. Over time I think it would improve your ability to improvise shots. However, from a scoring perspective I can't see how you'd be better off carrying less clubs.

Another vote for Ping Eye 2. The + was my favorite iteration.

Nice job.

I thought so too. I subscribed to his online lessons despite that. They are very good. I'm not a good player and I don't practice much. I've dropped 2 strokes so far.

Good grief! What is going on at that golf course?

I have not been happy with my Clicgear 3.5+ either. I've used it 4 times in the two years I have owned it. Nothing but problems. First setup was with the "Pro Kit." That's garbage. Don't get that. It was as if my bag (whether a Ping DLX, Ping Pioneer, or Sun Mountain 3.5LS) was on a swivel. Nothing but turning. I got rid of that. Next round the arm that holds the bungee snapped. Instead of pushing the bag, I've been carrying the cart and bag for 3 of 4 rounds.
