[How Much for a Bucket?]

Like everything else since January 2021, TOO MUCH  !!!!

[How Long Do You Keep Golf Gloves?]

First of all I wonder if MG golf had their gloves tested ?? They’re in Irving, TX and their gloves sell for $6.99 & $7.99 and can be personalized. I’ve been wearing them for about 10 years.

I play a couple times/week & my gloves last about 2-3 months depending on the time of year. Obviously during the summer they become slick faster. But at $6.99 or $7.99 it’s not a problem.

[Cost of Your Fitting?]

I think if you’re purchasing equipment upon completion of the fitting the fitting should be free

[Would you give up distance for accuracy?]

I already have it’s called “getting older” and like it or not the distance leaves you. I’m 74 and my 7 iron is 135 yards when it used to be 155 yards 10 years ago. Deal with it !!!!!

[Making The Switch To Graphite]

I made the switch about 5 years ago using Aldila NV 65 gram shafts. Dispersion is really the same as steel, just lighter weight overall in the club. I really like them

[Do you choke down on your clubs?]

When I’m hitting a knockdown shot into the wind then I choke down an inch or 2

[Why are we still using Swingweight?]

45” Cobra Aerojet Max

[Do you still carry a 5-iron?]

I’m 74 and I play forged CB irons with traditional lofts. So I carry 4 - GW & 52 degree wedge. I also carry a driver, strong 3w, 4w & 7w. The forged irons just feel better than cast clubs.

[Opinion Stand vs cart]

So I have a 14 club cart bag & a couple of stand bags, one of which is waterproof. Just returned from a trip to Scotland and the waterproof made the trip. Fortunate to play the Old Course, Carnoustie, Kingsbarn, The Castle Course, Jubilee and Elie Golf Club. Stand bag better for caddies and electric trolleys. 

[Seven wood anyone?]

Just started using my 7 wood a couple of months ago. It’s a PXG with their stock A flex shaft & it replaces my 3 iron. I’m 74 and it’s for a shot of 170 - 180 yards

[MyGolfSpy X Bridgestone Mindset Sampling Opportunity - Closed]

Here’s the recommendation from Bridgestone for my game

[What's Your Favorite Iron Shaft?]

Aldila NV 65 gram A flex. Also I’ve tested their 55 gram A flex & it’s also very responsive 

[Do You Own A Launch Monitor?]

No I don’t as I can’t justify the purchase. 74 years young with an 8 handicap, I play twice a week and never practice. Go figure but I’m happy !!!

[2024 Masters Pool Sponsored by Titleist and Vokey Wedges]

Well I think the cut will be +2 and the low amateur will be Stewart Hagestad. 

[How long do you play a ball before retiring it?]

27 holes max by then it’s probably scuffed, those unforgiving traps & cart paths

[What Is The Most You Would Pay For A Putter?]

The most I’ve paid was $349.00 for the new Odessey A1 Cruiser Jailbird. So far the jury is still out as I’m on a learning curve 

[What is your driver for 2024?]

Last fall I purchased a Cobra Aerojet Max 10.5 degree. I put the Jupiter A flex shaft tipped to play between an R & A flex as my driver swing speed is 83 MPH. For me it’s really straight and plenty long for this 74 year young golfer !!!

[When Do You Normally Golf? (Times/Days)]

Good morning being retired I normally play on Tuesday & Thursday usually tee off between 7:30 - 9:00. Never play weekends too crowded and takes too long to play

[Forum Re-Testing Opportunity: MacGregor MT86 Irons! Sign Up Now!]

WOW I’m playing the 2002 VIP Forged 1025C model with Tensei R AV shafts. Really love ‘em & would honored to test the new MT86 model. Also those specs are my specs as well. Bring it !!!

[You win a shopping spree to your local golf shop but you can only pick 1(!) item free of charge... what is it?]

Well now being a lover of watches I’d pick a 

TAG HEUER

Connected Calibre E4 45MM Golf Edition Smartwatch

from the PGA Superstore in Southlake, TX

This would make an excellent bday/Xmas gift as the bday is 12/24

Thanks 

[Anyone completely ditched fairway woods in their bags?]

I’m a senior, 73, and my 3 wood is not leaving any time soon. I also carry a 4 wood & 3 hybrid then 5 thru SW irons.

[Will a Stroke Lab shaft perform better than a steel shaft?]

Goodness gracious in my opinion paralysis by analysis 

[MyGolfSpy 2023 Golf Ball Test!!!]

Callaway Super Soft vs Srixon Soft feel

[What brand do you game?]

My 5 thru GW are MacGregor VIP VFoil forged irons & SW is a JAWS 54 degree. If I were picked as a tester I might switch but I’m a forge lover the cast clubs are too clunky.

[Best value golf ball?]

In my opinion if I were losing 2 - 3 balls/ round I’d get with an instructor who could get me swinging more consistently & keep the ball in front of me. COSTCO sells their balls in a 2 dozen pack for about $25
