BestGrips/Zalbert's WIYB


Recommended Posts

Maybe it's an Adams Golf club but it was shipped in a Yes box.

 

 

Yes! is owned by Adams, which is in turn owned by TaylorMade ... so the possibilities are endless lol (no chance its TMaG with the Yes! on the box though, so my guess is something AdamsGolf!

 

We got us a winner!!! I hope to have pics up as soon as I get them regripped!

Very cool set!

 

I know a lot of people that swear by new balance shoes, but I've never seen nb golf shoes. Where did you happen to find these?

Thanks!

 

I've had some foot/ankle issues this last year in fj and adidas. I was on another forum a few months ago and found a post about these. So about a month ago I was in the local New Balance store and they had them. Right now there are Minimus styles (no drop) in mesh and leather (with wide widths). These do not have spikes. They are coming out with a spiked sneaker style in the spring that looks pretty cool.

 

I absolutely love them! Some of the best spineless shoes I've tried. I have mine in 10.5 wide and they fit like a glove. I'm going to do a review of them for MGS this weekend. I haven't seem amy other reviews, so they must not play the standard golf-review-media game.

hmmm.... a mother forum ... I'm not sure that I want to know the answer...  :D

Whoops. Probably shouldn't be so open about reading mother forums. Fixed!

Well the contents of the package was a new set up from Adams. XTD Driver, XTD Ti Hybrid and Dhy Hybrid. All three clubs are top notch and the driver is threatening to remove the SLDR from the bag. There is also a new MicroPerf with Skull and Crossbones in red on it. The new line up as it stands:

 

D: XTD

Fw: XTD Ti

H: DHY

I: s55

W: Mack Daddy 2

P: Braun & Wessner

 

Oh and the first panel of the FCO III is done!

May be one final change, we shall see.

 

Very nice, interesting to see the Adams putting up a fight against the SLDR, I've never given much thought to an Adams driver.

It's an interesting driver. I've always been a big Adams fan. Love the feel.

I like it a lot. Same distance as the super L's, with a much better sound at impact and a little more forgiveness. Plus, you can adjust it 1.5°.

 

I'm just curious how you went XTD at 10.5° but SLDR 430 at 9°.  Haven't you heard of Loft UP+?

Both are set to 10°. Sldr numbers were 15-16° of launch and 18-1900° spin. I hit the ball high to start with.

 

That driver has good feel, but I felt like I had to give it everything I had to get the ball to go anywhere. Not bad just kind of so so.

I never hit it in the store and wasn't expecting it. It just kind of showed up. It very well could be the difference in a retail red tie and tour red tie. I found that if you can get a positive AoA it will go forever.

There's no difference other than the Not for Resale serial etching on the Red Tie. Just their way of tracking them, especially if sold on the secondary market.

In The Bag
Driver: TaylorMade M2 (2017) w/ Project X T1100 HZRDUS Handcrafted 65x 
Strong 3 wood: Taylormade M1 15* w/ ProjectX T1100 HZRDUS handcrafted 75x
3 Hybrid: Adams PRO 18* w/ KBS Tour Hybrid S flex tipped 1/2"
4 Hybrid: Adams PRO 20* (bent to 21*) w/ KBS Tour Hybrid S flex tipped 1/2"
4-AW: TaylorMade P770 w/ Dynamic Gold Tour Issue Black Onyx S400

SW: 56* Scratch Tour Dept(CC grooves) w/ Dynamic Gold Spinner
LW: 60* Scratch Tour Department (CC grooves) w/ Dynamic Gold Spinner
XW: 64* Cally XForged Vintage w/ DG X100 8 iron tiger stepped
Putter: Nike Method Prototype 006 at 34"

Have a ton of back-ups in all categories, but there are always 14 clubs in the bag that differ depending on the course and set-up. Bomb and gouge. Yes, I'm a club gigolo.

What's the point of the serial number then?

Tracking purposes. They're not supposed to be resold and that way they know who has what. Kind of like the Jim Wells Ping putters

The SLDR made a strong case for top billing this Spring. Hard to ignore a ball that carries and rolls so far. #BestOfBothWorlds
