[Best Car to Carry Your Clubs?]

Sucks that they don't have big trucks in the UK my 2500HD can carry 10 sets of clubs with room for pull carts.

[Back from deployment.]

Is it golf season yet? Re-newed my membership last week and am looking forward to another great season with you folks. Fingers crossed covid doesn't mess with the season too much.

$160 is what I paid for them.

160$ for 3 wedges is a good deal, if they play well. I hope to see some reviews soon.

[WHAT AFFECT DOES INCORRECT LIE ANGLE POTENTIALLY HAVE?]

It will affect your fade(slice) or your draw, depending on how agressive the lie angle is. 

[How'd you play?]

Played the worst game of the season last week played the best game of the season this week. I played a United way charity tournament today and it went amazing I don't think I'll take a trophy because there's some very good players but nonetheless I played incredible today. I missed a hole in one because it lift out and I got a birdie from 6 in. On the par 5 on the back 9 from 220 out I had a good lie so I said screw it and hit my driver off the deck and nailed the green and it's stuck. Freaking three-putted for a bogey but that driver off the deck shot was awesome.the guys I was playing with said they'd never seen it that happen.

Wasn't Morikawa the new face of golf?  And then it was DJ?  Now its Bryson?  Then it will be whoever wins the next major...

As an engineer/(amateur)scientist, it insults me to hear Bryson being called a scientist.  Just because you throw around some numbers that only make sense to you doesn't make you a scientist!  Just my opinion.

I cant stand Bryson, guy frigging drive me up the wall.

[Weather in your neck of the woods?]

Last week was good, got some rain and the smoke cleared. This week we back to hot and smoky and its frigging THICK. Kinda sucks but what can I do. 

[Cell Phones - Advice]

I switched to android quite a few year ago because I didn't like Apple locking my phone up, Android is much more user enhanced I can do whatever I want to do. If your not tech savvy though I would say go with apple. My parents use apple and have no problems. If your into having a bunch of apps and personalizations get the Android. Just my 2 cents.

[Ball info]

Thats cool, I hope its genuine! I would put it in my collection anyways because .... how would you really know unless he handed you the ball.

[How'd you play?]

Not sure what happend saturday but I shot the worst round of my season, 56 on the front nine, found the water found OB found every sand trap it was a battle. Kinda sorted myself out on the back 9 and shot a 41 but damn that front was brutal!!!

[Z Stars for $29.95]

I've played zstars for a while now, Never noticed much difference in years. I guess i'm not good enough to need the best of the best. I play srixon exclusively now after playing prov 1's and not seeing much difference between the balls other than price. Thr srixon is a great ball and a great price.

[Best Golf Games to Play on the Course?]

Thats a great idea, have it pinned to the top too.

[Reasons for Super High Ball Flight]

How do you know your launching high? Do you have something to compare it too? I launch higher than most people I play with and they scoop the ball. I'm compressing the ball and getting more distance and height than the guys I regularly play with. unless I think the piss out of it hahah.

[Best golf gift as addition to new clubs]

Gift Card, like everyone else mentioned. Any time I tell my wife what I want for a gift xmas, birthday whatever she ends of getting me something weird. The gift card seems kinda unpersonal but its the best option. They can get whatever their heart desires, shoes, putter, anything.

[Biggest Mistake Average Golfers Make?]

Buying new clubs to fix a problem, pay for lessons. You can play with old clubs and still be very good. And like the above post said trying to fix problems watching youtube videos. you need to know the route cause to fix the problem. Everyone has a different swing there is not a one swing for everyone don't fix what aint broke. 

[Thoughts on a 3:1 Tempo?]

I don't know if 3:1 is best for everyone. I know when my tempo in my back swing gets too quick I tend to come over the top and slice the ball. Tempo is something I'm constantly thinking about. I try to think low and slow for my back swing to prevent me from coming over the top.

[How'd you play?]

Bahahahaha, played in 70-90 kph winds and crazy rain. Shot a 48 and was super happy about it. The winds were so strong I needed to aim almost 70 yards offline to hit my target area. This was the worst weather I have ever played in so only played 9 holes but had a super good time, drinking beers and shooting the s*** with buddies.

[Fitting Today was AWESOME]

I' love my mizuno's nothing better than hitting it pure with a mizuno.

[New Clubs or Lessons?]

Anyone debating lessons or gear needs lessons. You can always improve your form. Even the pros are constantly getting lessons, clubs ain't going to make you better lessons will.

[Garmin Approach S60 or Comparable]

I have had my S60 about 18 months and it's great.  I upgraded (from TomTom 2) as I wanted hole maps.  I wear it as my normal day to day watch and battery life is fine, but i think it could struggle to do 2 full rounds comfortably without a little top up.  I find the fitness tracking features useful to have, but it has no heart rate monitor built in, which is no big deal for me (if it stops I will find out soon enough).

Mine will not make it through 2 rounds. I can play 27 and it will usually die a few holes after that. for 18 its great no issues and come home with 20-30% left. I also use it as my dailey watch and if I know i'm playing saturday I will usually fully charge it the night before and it still wont make it though 2 rounds.

I have an old Garmin Approach S2, and a Bushnell Neo xs.  I am a watch and not a rangefinder person.  I was wondering if anyone has any personal experience with the S60 or any comparable Bushnell watch.  I am thinking about upgrading. 

I have the s60 and love it. It does everything I want it to do. I previously had another garmen product that was more for back packing and back country stuff. It had a golf app but wasnt great. The s60 is nice and slim in comparison and combined with the app it's a great tracking and all around great addition to my game. On the course everyone always asks me yardage and compared to my range finder it's usually within 3-5 yards. I'm not that good anyways to dial in 3-5 yards so it's perfect. My greens in regulation have gone up big time because I'm choosing the right club more often. If I hit it pure haha

Less spin? Do you hit wipey fades otherwise?

I usually hit a fade yes, So I guess hitting the ball straighter with a pull would reduce spin and either carry or roll a little farther, but 30 yards is quite a bit.
