  2. I was away from golf for 11 years and in 2018 my wife suggested I get back into it. Which I did but knowing I would not be anywhere close to my playing abilities when I last played I would only go to the driving range. With me working second shift hours I had to try to go before work since all the ranges near me would be closed by the time I was off. By the end of 2018 I set up a hitting area in my garage and could practice whenever I wanted. This lead to a purchase of a SkyTrak and by 2019 an upgrade to a GC2. I currently use GC2 and GSPro as my simulator software. When CoVID hit and all the courses were closed I still was able to "play" and practice. This year work has kept me from playing outside but I play/practice 4 to 5 times a week in the garage. I finally went to go play my first round outside this year last month and can say without a doubt the transition from golf sim to real golf was spot on for me. My ball flight was exactly as I was seeing in the simulator, full shots, chips, pitches, putts all translated. And the guys I played with that had not seen me in almost 20 months noticed the huge improvement as well. I think as long as you have a plan and practice accordingly and your simulator/software is accurate it will at the least maintain what you currently have or you could improve drastically and actually dial in your numbers. Hope you much success with your adventure!
  3. Thanks for posting this! I ordered the Gen5 7.5 degree back when it was on super sale with the Fujikura Motore X F3 5- R2 with hopes of doing something similar to this. I have my normal Project X Evenflow T1100 6.0 60G shaft that I have used with previous Gen1 and Gen4 heads so figured it would be worth trying the Motore. I swapped weights and lofts but none of that mattered really since I could not consistently find the center of the face with the Motore shaft. Swapped it back to the Evenflow and I suddenly started getting better contact. I wish I would have seen this before I ordered I probably would have just got the Riptide with no upcharge. Now you have me thinking maybe I can get them to swap it out for me? If not maybe I should try this Garafalloy Pro Launch Blue. Looking forward to the rest of your testing!
