  1. Looking forward to the results since I have been thinking about trying a set myself
  2. I have had tennis elbow 2 times and in the most recent case found the elbow strap helped tremendously but the culprit causing the pain was a combination of a head heavy racket and string that did not absorb shock well. Changed the string and have been playing since with no pain. My wife just developed golfer elbow on our trip to Hilton Head last week. This is on her left or trail arm and at the inside of the elbow. It became so painful during her third round she had to quit playing. I don't think the tennis strap I used will do her any good since it applies pressure on the tendon on the top of the forearm so any help from those with this problem is appreciated. I believe hers is from overuse after not playing for several months while going through Chemo so rest is one step but she wants to get back playing. Thanks to all those who have contributed.
  3. I find this to be an interesting topic. I never had a putter fitting until I went to Club Champion as part of a promotion they ran. They used the Sam and I took 5 to 10 putts with my putter reviewed what I was doing and what they would recommend to change on the putter. In this case it was correcting the bend by 1 degree and another minor adjustment to the loft. In the initial test I mad 50% at the 10 foot mark. After the adjustment I made 7 in a row. I was impressed but wanted to wait to when I played to see if this carried over. Well it has. I am making more putts now than ever and have become the best putter in our group. I have a couple of old putters in the closet that I am going to take to them to make the same adjustment and see if the results follow for those as well.
  4. Grabbed a dozen of these a year ago based on MGS. Played it along with the Vice Pro which had been my gamer. The Maxfli is longer off the driver (90 mph) and very controllable on short shots. It has become my go to ball and enjoy the yellow for those cloudy days when trying to follow a white ball is difficult. Thanks for the reviews MGS.
  5. I have switched to the Maxfli Pro and find it about 2 to 3 yards longer than other balls I was playing off the driver and irons. The covers have held up well and I like the yellow for contrast especially on cloudy days. The other less expensive ball I play is the Vice Pro Soft and find it gives me very similar performance on drives and iron shots. My sing speed with the driver is 89 to 90 MPH and these have been terrific.
  6. I have tried the Snell MTB black, the Vice Pro, the OnCor Elixr and the Maxfli Tour and have been very satisfied with all 4 I get good distance off the driver and good control around the green. I play yellow which I find easier to follow on sunny days and have not noticed any peeling of the paint on any of the above. I have compared them to Pro V and do not see any major differences except for price. I will stick with these and if I narrow it down more this year will update.
  7. I purchase DTC balls from OnCore and Vice. Have had excellent response from both companies and the balls play for me, like the pro V's
  8. I live in Fl and play in the humidity on a regular basis. I started wearing wrists bands like I do for tennis and found I only have to change gloves once a round as opposed to 3 to 4 times. I air dry by hanging on the bag or on the cart.
  9. I was cleaning out my closet due to the Corona Virus stay at home mandate and found a dozen Titanium Balata golf balls that have to be at least 22 years old. I gave a few away to friends of mine but wonder how much this type of ball loses in speed and performance due to age? Any ideas?
