I’ve subscribed to his content for a few years now. He has great concepts and I heard them from him 1st in some cases. You could do a lot worse than TopSpeedGold.

I think the cover does not hold up very well. I did the ballnamic ball fitting and was recommended the XLS, I bought a dozen and while I like the performance, I don't love it and think I get more out of the Bridgestone Tour BX and ProV1 in performance and durability. I'll likely keep playing one of these going forward.

These look amazing. I’ve got a new set of Mizunos, but might need to upgrade.

Rangefinder Question: Precision Pro NX9 vs Blue Tees S3 Max
DarthGator007 replied to djtech2k's topic in General Q&A
I have the Precision Pro 9 and I really love it. It's the only range finder I've ever had experience with, but it works really well for me. -
I just started a 10 lesson package at GolfTec and just had my 2nd lesson. I will say that I've been very pleased so far. My first lesson, there was a discussion about weight shift and what I thought it was and his explanation was very eye opening. I've played once since my lessons and working through the swing stuff on the course was tough, but I didn't want to revert right back to my old habits. I really find the video to be very valuable and good feedback. What I feel and what's actually going on are often drastically different. So far, its been worth it to me.

I can't say that this is particular to PING or any other brand, but a few weeks ago, I was in my local golf shop (Golfdom, Tysons Corner, VA) and the PING rep was there and putting restocking the G425 fairway woods and drivers. I overheard him talking to one of the employees that the factory is having a hard time getting people to come back to work, post COVID. He didn't elaborate further, but in addition to ongoing shipping and material availability, it's no real shock that there are delays for many manufacturers.

Hey all, I’m looking to go in for a driver fitting and have quite a few options around me in Northern Virginia. I have Golftec, Club Champion, Dick’s/Golf Galaxy, as well as a local place called Golfdom. There is also a 2nd Swing about 45 minutes away. My question is, is one place that much better than any other? Does anyone have a really great or bad experience I should consider before going in? As reference I’m about a 10 handicap and play 2x a month. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

As an update, I bought the ShotScope and have played one round with it and really like it so far. I do say one round because I put the watch in my bag after being on the charger for a few days and thought I turned it off. Apparently, I was wrong because when I got to the course I had like 30% battery and it died on me by the back 9. Hopefully this won’t happen again. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy

Buyers Guide - Spiked Golf Shoes 2021
DarthGator007 replied to Tarheelvolvo's topic in Fashion & Style
I just bought the spiked Adidas that won last year, so I'm not in the market for new shoes (per say), but I do like these. I do find it odd that on New Balance's site, they don't have the Striker 2.0 option available. -
So like most people I played more last year than I have in quite a few years. I’m really hoping to keep that going in 2021 and am looking to try and improve my game at the same time. I’m thinking a shot tracking device will help in this pursuit. That being said, which system do you think is best? Both seem to get good reviews here, but I’m looking for feedback for people that might be familiar with both. I’m leaning towards the ShotScope since it’s a touch cheaper and doesn’t have extra costs. Plus a quick check of a watch on the wrist seems a lot easier than keeping a phone in my pocket and checking it all the time. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

ncwoz's WITB
DarthGator007 replied to ncwoz's topic in Introduce Yourself/ WIYB (What's In Your Bag)
I bought a set of Ping Eye 2s as my first "big money" set, back in 98 and to this day they are still the best irons I've ever owned. I truly regret getting rid of them and should have just kept them around.
