    sporter got a reaction from William P in What is your golf pet peeve?   
    Slow play, I play in a lot of tournament golf, and nothing drives me crazier that a 25-handicap player taking 10 practice swings before stepping up to the ball and still shanking it right out of bounds. Or the player that waits until it is his turn to look at his putt from every angle and take 4-5 minutes to make a putt. And lastly the guy who takes one club to his ball from the cart just to decide that that is not the one he wants and goes back to get another one. What ever happened to taking several the first time. I know, we all have to be new sometime, and no single digit handicap started out that way, but the driving range and practice facilities are where you go to work on improving your game, not a crowded golf course on the weekend.

    I had the same interest in the fairway and iron shafts. I have reached out to the company rep and when I get a response, I will post it.

    I purchased one of the new Freeflex shafts (FF45) and I love it. My shaft is set up a 1/4 of an inch longer than standard and is a Stealth 2 head set at 10.5. I love the set up, I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the shaft and would purchase it again. I like it so much I am putting them in my fairway clubs.

    I will play a ball until I lose it if it is just a relaxed round. If it is a tournament, I will go with a sleave of new balls. Most of the balls I take out of play are due to cuts on the cover from my wedges. The longest I ever played a ball was 22.5 rounds, I wore just about all of the logo and writing off the ball be for I hit an errant shot with it and put it in the water.

    Has anyone tried the new Free Flex golf shaft that was just introduced? It is a new company in Korea with a similar product to the Autoflex shaft but with a little tweak in technology and at a reduced price. I ordered one and thus far, 7 rounds in I love it. I'm not going to tell you that I have gained 20 plus yards, because I have not, I'm still 225 to 240 with 250 plus with a dry fairway but with this shaft they are almost effortless yards, for a guy turning 60 this year I do not think that is half bad I'm not someone who believes you can buy a golf game, but I do believe in taking advantage of changing technology and materials to try and stay competitive as we get older. If you get a chance to try one of these shafts sometimes, I would defiantly recommend trying it, I'm think of putting them in my fairway clubs as well.

    I have a 6-way Staff bag with my clubs arranged as so.

    Like many of the respondents to this post I am OCD about where the clubs are in the bag. I even put the bag on backwards when I ride in a cart, so everything is just the way it is displayed. For me it is based on shot selection, when teeing off, take the cover off the driver, store the cover on the OW , tee off replace cover and move on. Most of my second shots will be one of the three groupings of clubs. Finally, I take a wedge and putter to the third stroke and when all goes well, I am in with par or better. I even have head covers on my irons to protect the face as well.

    As crazy as it may sound, my Sand Wedge. I have a Lobe Wedge for green side bunkers, and I rarely find myself in the sand wedge distance. But like everything with golf, it is subject to change.

    Nice units, both of them.
    You can purchase the conversion kit to upgrade your V1 to the V2 for about $250.

    I recommend both. I have both on my Clicgear and could not imagine the V2 without the front wheel conversion. Is maneuvers so well. Besides the cart, the V2 wheel conversion was the best money I have spent. If you have not seen it put on, I can send you pictures of mine.

    I walk most of the rounds I play unless they are tournaments, and I can't. I enjoy walking more than riding on most courses. I have a tricked out Clicgear pushcart with the Alphard V2 power unit that makes walking even more enjoyable, if you're a walker, I highly recommend it.
