Price increase on Maxfli Tour & Tour X
the great spinks replied to kmoneill9's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
For sure. Incredible value. I would expect every manufacturer to take a price increase in the next 6-8 months if they haven't already. I work in supply chain within the beverage industry and have seen it pretty much across the board. The suppliers and distributors aren't taking the hit, it always falls to the consumer. -
Price increase on Maxfli Tour & Tour X
the great spinks replied to kmoneill9's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
Surprised it hasn't happened sooner. The cost of materials and transportation has gone up a ton. DSG wasn't going to eat that cost forever. -
Callaway Hex Tour from Costco?
the great spinks replied to sosuHands's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
Rick Shiels just did a video on these recently, and while they weren't great, he said they were great for the price and the demo graph it's targeted at. -
How many different shaft models in your bag?
the great spinks replied to BostonSal's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
Driver- Ventus Red TR 3 Wood- Tensei Orange 2 Hybrid- KBS PGI Irons/Wedges- Fuji Vista Pro 2.0 Putter-The OG Stability shaft -
I've got a Red TR, 5 rounds in along with two range sessions. I'll let you know if anything happens to mine. Hoping it won't though. Not a pleasant swing thought...

Perfect. Thank you!

A friend had a meltdown and sold his TM Spider with a stability shaft to me for a song yesterday. I had been looking for this shaft to throw on my PXG blackjack. I've never dealt with removing putter shafts from existing builds and putting them on another putter. Are there any issues with doing this? Both have .370 tips, so no issues on that front. I'll pay someone who does club work in the area, my question is more about the integrity of the shaft after having it removed from the Spider. Thank you in advance for helping this simpleton.

New Wilson Triad Golf Ball !!!
the great spinks replied to RATOUR7's topic in General Equipment Talk
I was also unimpressed with the sleeve I put in play last week. The conditions weren't great, but my issues were with wedges. The cover didn't hold up on wedge shots and the cover had a crease in it after a single shot. -
I'm going back to Cobra with my driver today. Fitted last year but couldn't sell the idea to the warden on another golf club spend at the time. Putting my Sim Max in the corner and I have the RadSpeed XB with the peacoat blue finish being delivered today. Freaking stoked about it.

Grass roots effort in changing who buys with a hole in one.
the great spinks replied to Muckinfiddle's topic in General Q&A
The warden at home doesn't care what I shot. Me buying a round for strangers because I did something well on the course would not go over well and I'm more afraid of Latina Rage than I am of people not liking me for not buying them a drink. In reality, I play with a core group of guys that don't go higher than Jack or Crown and will drink whatever beer is cold so it's not an issue. It's also not a concern because I've accepted that I will never hit the shot we're discussing. But I couldn't care less about a tradition that says I should buy a round for anyone not in my group. -
AmazonBasics Golf Net

Just got this and it's missing parts. Absolutely dreadful. -
I'm starting to play every weekend or so. I'm mid to high teens though. In Frisco, play all DFW.

Positive AOA, low face impact... Driver Yips
the great spinks replied to the great spinks's topic in General Q&A
Thank you, will absolutely work on this. My guy I was getting lessons from from has me going incredibly high. Defiantly could be an issue. Slightly forward in relation to the armpit. -
I'm fighting out of a dark spot, the driver yips. At one point my driving distance was 250-265 with an outlier in the 280's. I took some lessons to get better and it all unraveled. I've stopped lessons for the time being, but have access to a launch monitor and have found that I have a positive AoA, but I'm also hitting striking the ball low on the clubface. Without a video at the moment, what in the world am I doing wrong?

What Have You Bought Lately? (CHA - Club Ho's Anonymous)
the great spinks replied to hckymeyer's topic in The Daily
Havent been on the boards for a while since cornea surgery, so a little late responding. Facebook Marketplace. Lots of dudes get out over their skis with clubs they have no business playing. Buy them because they see them on the internet or on TV, get them and immediately bail as it's not the magic pill that will make them better. Finding these deals and flipping clubs I was able to turn $200 from a putter I sold into a new set of custom irons. Deals are there to be had. -

Picked up an unhit speedzone 3 wood demo from PGATSS for 150, then a Taylor Made SIM DHY that maybe had been hit for a single session by a guy that didn't know what he was doing. $100 for basically new. I can't pass up deals. -
NPG Episode 69: Crazy Claims from Callaway
the great spinks replied to GolfSpy MPR's topic in General Equipment Talk
The pod is great, but it just hits different when Adam is on. In the podcast world it's the equivalent to the first four Sabbath albums. -
PXG 2021 0211 Price Drop.... ALREADY?
the great spinks replied to Grand Stranded's topic in General Equipment Talk
Is this foreboding with PXG dropping prices after establishing a new market/price point a few years back? -

Is Adam done with the podcast all together? Will he be on special episodes?
