    14 way, 4 way, 3 way bags Thoughts

    in Golf Bags & Carts

    Posted

    For the summer, on my push cart, I like a 14 way divider.

    I’m a bit forgetful ( wedge left at the previous green type thing🤪) and like peace and quiet when I’m walking and to keep my clubs in good condition. I also I hate “club clatter” as I walk 🤨

    So the best bag I ever had was a Bennington Quiet Organiser. It had 9 spaces for the irons, a putter well and divided space for the woods. It was easy to see all your clubs, you could soon see if an iron was missing.

    I’ve not got one any more and this is making me nostalgic - maybe I’ll have to get one for my next bag IMG_3155.PNG

    Horrible day...

    Sorry to hear about this, I think it's terrible when someone won't do the right thing and turn it in. I don't see how people can live with themselves when they just take someone's stuff. 


    I agree

    Like someone earlier said, I’d keep phoning for a while, just in case. I’ve accidentally gone home with someone’s club before when I’ve picked it up on the course. I hope that’s all that’s happened 🤞🏼

    And if they have nicked it, I hope all their rounds from now on are worse than the one you had there. Much worse!

    JumboMax grips

    in General Equipment Talk

    Hi

     

    So I’ve taken the plunge and got myself a chipper to try to prop up my weak chipping game 🤞🏼

     

    A Square Strike 45 degree has been chosen and put in the bag. But it needs a putting type action and I’m using my putting grip but it feels weird with the standard tour velvet style narrow (standard) grip on there. I use a SuperStroke type grip on my putter and wanted something similar on my Square Strike. But it had to be legal so no putter grips allowed.

     

    I settled on a JumboMax Wrap Small (not small - bigger than Jumbo - +1/4”) - and I like it for chipping.

     

    But here’s the thing, with a bit of arthritis setting in to the fingers, I’m beginning to wonder about this type of grip for my irons too.

     

    Has anyone got any experience of switching to these on their iron set?

    My new truegolffit.com driver

    in General Equipment Talk

    I tried their app for a driver when I was starting to lose my love for my gamer. It came back with the exact setup I was playing! When I contacted them to complain I was told I should be happy that their software affirmed my setup as the best. PS, I’ve moved on rather quickly to a different driver/shaft. Waste of money. 


    Sorry, but

    I did wonder how they could quote, for example: +13 yards, 10% more accurate

    I mean, they take no data of your current setup or distance with it. So how can they know how much further you will hit their recommendation 🤷🏼‍♂️

    In your case, they didn’t. And I’m disappointed that they didn’t give you a refund. Poor show

    I’ll definitely let you know.

    In the meantime I’m doing swing speed training which might have an influence on the outcome (fingers crossed)

    But all I can do is test it when I get the chance and compare it to my old Ping G Series driver

    Really hoping that lockdown will be eased after this recently announced 3 weeks extension

    My new truegolffit.com driver

    in General Equipment Talk

    Ironic story really. Here goes:

     

    I decided to take the plunge and use the MyGolfSpy truegolffit.com app to decide my new driver. I’d been tempted a few times and the emailsjust kept coming until I crumbled. That’s what I’m telling the Mrs anyway

     

    So - for my 7 handicap, 100 mph (ish) smooth swing I received a first recommendation of a Mizuno ST 190G with a Mitsubishi Tensei CK Blue 60 Stiff shaft. Second recommendation was a Cobra F9 Speedback with a Fujicura Atmos Blue TS 60 Stiff shaft. This was on 03/19/2020

     

    I’d done this on a bit of a whim but did a little bit of research and managed to get a Mizuno to the exact spec for £165 which I thought was a bit of a bargain.

     

    But here comes the crunch - by the time it arrived, the UK had gone in to lockdown. All golf courses are shut and I’ve not been able to hit a ball with it!

     

    Swinging in the back garden only so far

     

    But it looks pretty
