  1. I used Shot Scope for a while. I didn't really find it useful - anything it recorded I could see happening on the course anyway. I found it more useful and less distracting (and more fun) to just use the old fashioned method of analyzing shots visually and adjusting as needed. Also, I've never liked playing golf with a watch on, lol.
  2. I used to play the ProV1x but bought them used to reduce the cost. But then I found a Titleist TruFeel and was happily stunned when I played it to find a ball that costs less than half of the ProVs but performs almost as well, with minimal loss of distance and spin on greens. In fact, it costs less new than the ProVs do used. I've switched to TruFeel and am very satisfied. I highly recommend the TruFeel - and yes, it comes in yellow.
  3. I've played well and I've played badly in club competitions, even won a few handicapped and flight events. I competed hard but I really can't say I had fun. A few years ago, I introduced my youngest son, who has autism, to the game. We played strictly for fun, playing preferred lies and giving ourselves a free drop now and then. Once I dropped the "golf is a serious moral enterprise" approach, I started loving the game again. Man, we've had some laughs. Now my son is my regular golf partner and I doubt that I'll ever enter a competition again.
  4. I use the Four-More-Yards tees for driver. Just the right height and they last for dozens of rounds. I love only having to carry one tee in my pocket. I don't even care if the silly name is accurate or not.
  5. Believe it or not, my Versa hatchback comfortably holds two sets of clubs and two push carts with the back seat down. I have an F-150 as well but the Versa is a heck of lot easier to park!
  6. I play a Ping 400 Max right now and hit it well but I went through a period about 10 years ago in which I played a 14 degree 3 wood off the tee (230 to 240 yards) because my driver of the day was too unpredictable. Sure I gave up some theoretical distance, but ... I say theoretical because 230 yards straight is actually longer than 260 yards right or left off the fairway in the fescue. Remember, most of us play this game for fun and it's a lot more fun to play second shots from the fairway.
