Gonna have to give this a go this week.
Recently I came to the realization that i cant be flag hunting with the longer irons. 190+ out I need to aim for the center of green and more than anything think about just making solid contact. This could be a good addition to that thought process and hopefully help straighten out my longer irons. 
Thanks for sharing!

Dont have all the facts here, but heard an interesting comment from Dechambeau this morning. He claims that he takes more time over certain shots but that he hurries to his ball while others take their time.... (insert GIF of Koepka sauntering down fairway lol) If this is true, should he be allowed more time at his ball? I would imagine that you can make up more time hurrying to your ball than is actually taken once behind it?? 
Not on either players side here but thought it was an interesting point. I personally dont have too much of an issue with slow play at the tour level as i could watch a pre-shot player/caddy convo all day. Especially in the bigger tournaments.
As someone mentioned above, i think the issue is at the local courses where avg. golfers mimic what they see on tv..... and then you also have ppl with general lackadaisical attitude toward getting to their shot, and getting out of others way... 
unfortunately I think this issue is here to stay for awhile. 

So, I'm doing to drop the link to a really good article on this from The Fried Egg right here
Basically, here's the jist if you don't want to click over. He followed DeChambeau, Kisner, and JT for 9 holes at the US Open. The players took the most time when they were first to play in the group and took their most time on Chips and Putts, likely due to the green reading books. Andy submits further removing the greens book from tournament golf and setting a tiered shot clock, 60 seconds if first to play, 40 seconds if you're second or third as potential alternatives.

Brooks is one of the fastest players on tour. Him sauntering to his ball is a normal paced walk. 
Getting to a ball faster than others doesn’t mean anything. Jb Holmes doesn’t even start his process until it’s his turn instead of doing all that while waiting for the others in the group to play theirs.

I took the week off last week to prepare for back-to-school and do some stuff around the house before we get too bogged down with school activities.  I played golf almost every morning last week before beginning my daily chores.  I figured why not, right?
I was asked to play with two junior players at my home club last Wednesday and offer an evaluation for the middle school golf program.  I think the parents wanted an unbiased perspective on their kids and trusted me to give an unvarnished opinion.  They are both very good players.  Well trained in proper golf etiquette, other than pace of play.  I had absolutely no issue with their golf games.  At 11 years of age, each young man shot 84.  And that was about the worst they could have done.  One young man 4 putted from 6 feet while the other 4 putted from 8 feet with his first putt ending up off the green.  My only issue was, a threesome walking 18 holes at 7am with nobody else in sight took over 5 hours to get around 18 holes!  And this is a course they play every day!  I will add, I often walk 18 in under 3 hours with my daughter!  They were mind-numbingly slow! 
They wouldn't begin a pre-shot routine until it was their turn.  Wouldn't even calculate distance until it was their turn.  After a conversation when we were finished, I began to realize they are emulating what they see from the best players in the world.  Calculating distance, checking wind direction, evaluating a lie and choosing a club are all a part of their pre-shot routine.  It has never occurred to them to do that stuff while the other person is playing a shot.
The only way this is going to change is to force change at the highest levels of golf and hope it trickles down like this "paralysis by analysis" generation has learned.

Trail mix or nuts, banana, protein bars ( i like One bars), also a big PBJ fan.
Adding a drink with electrolytes can help with hydration.
Eating healthier alternatives and drinking lots of water should help your game, especially as the round goes on and if you are walking. Its cliche at this point, but imagine your game/body as a vehicle with the wrong type of oil. Its not performing at its optimal level.
Plus I have found that golf is more enjoyable when you can swing without worry of soiling yourself... lol 
*disclaimer*  I very rarely heed my own advice and usually settle for hotdogs and brews at the turn. 
Cheers!
 
 

Worst feeling in the world, is thinking that your golf ball may have been picked up by another group....
With that said, a couple years back i decided that unless the ball is mine- I'm not picking it up. Maybe generate some good karma!!
I know that doesnt answer your question lol, so Id say play them or giveaway should you have some you don't care for. 

This was such a great post.  Thanks for sharing it. 
One reason it's so great is you had no problem saying you were initially influenced by the marketing of TaylorMade and Callaway.  
Being that we--golf forum readers---represent less than 1% of the golf playing/buying public, we have been informed enough to not always fall for the hype but look for real data and get fit. 
I see it si many times in our Pro Shop people go straight for the M5/M6 and ask which one Rory or DJ is playing.    
Kudos to you and your fitter for taking the time to find what worked best for you.  
Both your finalist drivers are excellent and you couldn't have gone wrong with either one.  
The TS2 is plenty forgiving in its own right as well as long as any other current driver out there. 
When I tested it against the G410 on Trackman, they were very very close.  
Enjoy the new stick and keep us updated on it. 

Did you keep track of your stats on the golf course before the driver change?  I'd like to see the on course results after you put a few rounds on the new stick.  Did FIR go up?  Driving distance? and most importantly did your score go down?

Your experience sounds like mine , went in thinking flash or f9 but walked out with a ts2.
Sound, look, performance, it to me has it all.

I dont know what it is about twist face and speed injections but I've hit m3,m4,m5 and m6 and I just can't control them, worst of the lot for me.

Nice post!  I have said this before, and I think I am in the minority here...I hate the way the Ping looks.  It has too much going on for me looking down at it.  I like simple and clean, the TS2 looks and feels amazing!  Good choice!

Kudos to you for being open minded going into your fitting and not buying into the hype. If more people ignored what Rory and DJ play ('cause they certainly don't have either of their games!) and took all the marketing with a grain of salt, I think we'd see a lot more happy and better golfers out there.
Thanks for the share!

Great job leaving biased out of it! I recently had done a fitting as well and told the pro that i dont care what driver you put me in, al I want is to hit it long and hit the fairway consistently. After a poor range session (poor hitting on my part) my fitting pro did an excellent job deciphering my good shots to the best combination of driver and shaft. In my case i ended up with the TM M6. For my swing it was down to the TS2, Callaway Rogue (yes he fit me for LAST years club), and the TM M6. I took the clubs out to the course for a range and course session and after looking at the #'s again it worked out the TM M6 was the most consistent. though not fully the longest but close.
Since getting the new driver about 1-2 months ago i have added about 15yds to my drives, hit approx 65-70% fairways and dropped about 5 strokes! Its amazing what the RIGHT equipment for your swing can do for you scores. You HAVE to be non-biased if you want the best equipment for YOUR game.

I loved this post for a different reason than others

I could sense the joy and excitement that you had with your experience and are still having with your new driver.

My it continue for years to come (until it’s time to do it again.)

Nice writing!

It was time for an upgrade. After many years of faithful service, my Callaway Diablo Octane driver was ready for retirement. I needed to see how the new twist face technology on the Taylormade would make me a FIR hitting machine, and of course how the Jailbreak tech in the Callaway was going to give me epic distance! These are the clubs Tiger, DJ, Phil, Rory, etc all play, and the same tech that I have heard discussed each time there is a commercial on PGA radio or golf channel.... 
With holiday gift cards in hand and an excitement level that rivaled Masters week, I drove across the street to the PGA superstore i conveniently live near. After getting situated in a fitting bay, I warmed up with my old driver while the fitter grabbed several clubs for me to grip n rip. I started by hitting 10 balls with each of the OEM drivers I was handed, each time analyzing the numbers that appeared on the simulator screen. In between clubs, we would make certain that we documented the change so we could compare the data at the end. All the while, i was noticing subtle things about the feel, look, and sound of each driver head. 
When it was all said and done, I could not believe that neither the TM or Epic had generated the best results. Instead, I was now stuck between two fantastic drivers, and for very different reasons. The first was the Ping G400max, and with this I could not miss a (virtual) fairway... it was so forgiving, and yet It also had ideal launch angles and solid carry... the only thing i wasnt fond of was the loud, tinny sound that came with impact.... but how could i go with anything else!!!
But then there was the TS2.... It wasnt the FW magnet that the Ping seemed to be, but it had something more tangible....I had no idea hitting a golf ball could feeeeel that damn good! Even mishits felt as if they too were produced in the sweet spot factory.... It also produced the highest ball speed and carry of all the drivers I hit that day, which helps lol!
So... I went with the beautiful feel, clean pear-shaped look, and faster ball speed of the TS2 and have since been having a ton of success off the tee box this season. 
I felt like writing this for a couple reasons, and maybe some can relate... I think a lot of times people make purchases solely based on the marketing/ tour pro endorsements of these club manufacturers and to that i would say, make sure you get fit or at the very least give other options a try before you spend a ton of $$.
Also, some may say I should have gone with what seemed like a more forgiving club in the Ping.... but I would argue that looks, and feel are almost as important if not more so... When i stand over the ball I have a ton of confidence that I made the right choice, and also that my little white ball is going a long way, and hey... as long as it's still in play its good, right???
