I hear good things about the Paradym TD…

I think the G435 looks really nice.  Played last night with a guy with the 435 Driver, FW and 5W.  Looked really nice, but it’s got to be a big hit to the pocket book.

The TD I tested I found it to be pretty darn forgiving.

The other thing i’ve gotten is a bag boy cart as recommended by this site - I’ve been very happy it - mainly how easy it is to collapse and expand as well as it’s compactness when collapsed.

... I have been listening to more music lately and realize I can no longer stand my Emotive XPA-5 channel Amp. Living in Phoenix I needed a cool running 5 channel amp and since it was mostly used for film/TV I went with the Emotiva. It does a credible job with film but not so much with music as it is a bit analytical and cold sounding. At higher levels I would even say harsh sounding.

... So I just bought a new Class D 5 M3a-2000-5 Five Channel D-Sonic Amplifier. I was considering the Legacy i-V5 but at $7,000 I am not willing to pay more than twice as much for a small improvement in sound. After talking with the owner at D-Sonic I feel pretty confident this amp is exactly what I am looking for. Not gonna match my 2 Ayre V3's that were $3200 each for a warm and pure sound but they ran extremely hot and while they were great winter amps in Chicago and actually allowed me to close the heat vents in my media room, the last thing I need in Phoenix are 2 space heaters running 24/7.  🙄

... For those interested here is my new amp:

I picked up the Ping 430 7 wood and it came senior flex which is a little whippy but I hit a 196 yard shot out of the rough onto the green  Tuesday so I will keep it but maybe change the shaft. It goes super high.

Just got a subscription to red roster,  got the starter kit. I'm a black glove guy and really hard to find for my right hand ( waiting for the kit to arrive).  Yes I'm a lefty! Also bought a club scrub keeps my clubs and balls clean during the round. I also found out it will remove minor scuffs from the ball!

... Well that is a bummer. Thankfully my ex was all in on my audiophile journey, as long as I didn't involve her in any decisions. Sound bars are certainly better than TV speakers but after 5 speakers and a sub I would be looking for a 2nd opinion. 🤪  I hadn't watched The Dark Knight in probably 5 years and a friend wanted to watch it on my system last weekend. Without a sub and good surrounds that experience would be less than ideal.

... The front 3 speakers are ... well ... front and center. But my plants and faux trees do a good job of disguising the sub and surrounds.

Decided not to buy a new putter,  so I bought a putter shaft   I found a used stroke lab shaft that was pretty cheap so I ordered to see how I like a lightweight shaft.  Once it gets here I am going to put it in my TaylorMade putter.

A TaylorMade RBZ hybrid for my wife, hoping it’s easy enough to hit that it’s a gateway club of sorts. Worst case scenario is that I’m out $24 (and have a brand new ladies flex club to use as a LagShot).

Put in a bit more work on the 8802, got it to a near mirror finish, just need to touch up the paint fill now. Though, I'm considering giving it a brushed satin finish still. Hmm

Looks great!!  Brushed finish might help with glare.

Just bought the Amazon Basics version of the orange whip trainer. With a newborn, getting to the range, let alone the course, is few and far between now so doing some full swing practices at home with this will be nice.
