  1. Yep, you're correct. You need to select the event before you enter your score. The app being on/off is of little relevance unless you also like the gps yardage features it provides on course. Regarding tee accuracy, unless I shank it way left/right, I normally leave it as "HIT" in the scorecard. That's the default selection, so don't feel like you need to adjust unless necessary. Hopefully that helps @artful_golfer!
  2. Travel + Leisure sure put out an article recently listing the best travel bags for your clubs. Have any of you guys tried these? Do you like soft or hard sided bags? I have an only soft sided bag that's full of random clubs I probably need to get rid of, so I'm no use for this topic, haha! See the full list here
  3. Unfortunately the App isn't supported anymore and the test section will not be available on it. We're in the process of taking it down, in fact...
  4. Ah, I see - yea, so since the test section isn't technically a "forum," the IPS software doesn't allow a follow button for the entire section - just individual tests. However, knowing that, I make it a priority to create a site-wide announcement to alert everyone of the opportunity as well as sending out dedicated emails to our entire membership with a reminder a day before the test closes. Any bets on how many signups we get for CC5? 3K for the Sub70 test blew me away...I thought it would be closer to 1-1.5k at the most.
  5. No, I do not believe they need to be attested since the winning metric is unknown
  6. No, it would just be the person who's account the entry is under.
  7. While this has been mainly handled by the blog and manufacturer staff, we thought it a good idea for our membership to get involved and ask questions, learn about the device from testers, and see if this solution would be good for those sufferers of tendonitis. Hopefully the Fiix Elbow by Stā Active can assist some members! I have personally invited all testers to join us in this thread, so feel free to start posting questions!
  8. **UPDATE** I wanted to alert you guys to some answers to couple questions I have seen lately in a condensed post to clear any confusion. You can only enter ONE (1) round per event. I realize the original post stated otherwise, but that is not the case and I was mistaken - apologies to those who have been frustrated at that change. To be clear, you could still only have one entry in the contest, but it was my understanding you could overwrite your round with another if you continued to select the event. I do believe you can withdraw your entry to the event on the web (not the app) and then reenter it, but do so at your own risk! Keep in mind that the winning metric is unknown at this time so you might do more damage by reentering your round. You can use Arccos and TheGrint simultaneously, but there is no app integration between the two, presently. The "leaderboard" is meaningless. It's fun for smack talk, but has no bearing on the how we will chose the winner. ANYONE can participate, so tell all your buddies...or don't to improve your odds Right now we're sitting at 167 entries and for a $600 custom driver, those are pretty good odds!
  9. I believe you need to select the event BEFORE you play your round so it is properly added. I'll check with TheGrint guys to see if they have any other thoughts on the matter.
  10. Ping released 11 new putters for 2021 based upon their Putting Lab Design (PLD) program The putters feature multi-material construction and new dual-hardness, grooved inserts. MSRP of $249 (Harwood is $349) So what are you most excited about? Are you a fan of the new colorways? Do you like the return of the insert option or are you a purest and enjoy the *click* of a solid milled face? The full MGS article on the release can be found here: https://mygolfspy.com/2021-ping-putters/
  11. Interesting! It was my understanding that it was not setup that way...but I've been wrong before! Have any others who entered a round experienced similar issues?
  12. Thanks for the heads up - I'll investigate! **Update: I am still able to setup a round and tag the event appropriately. Make sure you edit your round before playing and click Tour Events and search for it.
  13. I sold cars for a brief period in my younger days and bringing your clubs to check the fit happened often - it was definitely not one of the odder things people "test fit" before purchase. Oddest had to be a strange fellow who wanted to make sure his two giant duffel bags would fit in the trunk. The other salesmen and I raised a few eyebrows at that request..
  14. I can investigate and see what it would take to implement. Not opposed to the idea for those that want to participate
  15. I believe there will be a leaderboard, but I'll check with TheGrint guys to confirm.
  16. Haha, yeah noticed that this morning and already sent a note to Dev to correct. In the meantime, please snicker all you wish at the silly name Good suggestion. I'll see what we can do!
  17. I see you tagged the Event in the top right corner of your entry, so I think you're good! Nice first round of the season!
  18. Hey @hckymeyer, great question! It's under the "REVIEWS" menu tab, although we could adjust that and make it a stand alone item...i'm open to other ideas
  19. Let me see what options I have to set that up Good suggestion! *update: Since the new test section is not technically a "forum" there is no way to setup a "follow" for that section. However, the other mods and I will make sure post it as an announcement up top - when space allows - to alert everyone of the testing opportunities. This would be in addition to an email blast to all members and any support from MGS HQ with blogs, email, social support.
  20. Hey Guys, We just launched the new member testing section and if you find bugs or quirks, please add them here so I can address with our developer. Thanks and we hope you like the new feature!
  21. Unsure as I've never used Golfpad. I would imagine there are many similarities, but only contests on the Grint...
  22. We're working on that now and will keep everyone posted on the solution. It will NOT impact any rounds/entries that have already been entered, though!
  23. Hey @Crossroads Golf, check out the screen shots in the original post. Before you start your round, you need to assign it/tag it to the correct event in the Grint system. No social hashtags needed!
  24. A neat article showing a behind the scenes look with lots of photos of how they make and test the Titleist Pro V1 series. Check it out! https://www.golfaustralia.com.au/feature/behind-the-scenes-making-the-no1-ball-in-golf-563342
