Let us know how you like it. I have a 2013 EZ Go Gas right now. We were originally thinking of a 2nd cart for the wife, then she said I should get a "newer" one since I use it more and she'd take the gas. Today, she was all behind getting a new cart and even pushing me toward the Li-Ion model. I just couldn't let her down. Actually, we had looked at the new models (and choked on the prices, of course...but....) and wife asked about used Li Ion ... the guy said that they were expecting a model (this one) to be available sometime today (someone had bought it in March, used it very little, then found out he was being transferred to an area where a cart wouldn't be useful to him). We went to lunch after giving him my cell number. After lunch, 5 pics showed up and we were only 5 miles away, so we went back and made the deal. Nice thing was that it already had a few nice options installed already, had seen very little use, and best of all, because it wasn't new, sales tax was not collected...a nice $1500 savings! How could I refuse my wife? Right? Won't be delivered until next week or the week after. I like the gas because I can drive between courses here in the Village easily, but I think I'm going to enjoy the quieter electric. Not to mention the cost of gas now. The range of this cart is 2 rounds, and unlike lead acid batteries, the power is consistent thru the charge. Supposedly more torque, as well and longer longevity over the years. We'll see. We also looked at a standard electric lead acid cart, but opted to go this way...especially when a used one became available. cksurfdude, GaDawg, chisag and 2 others 5 Quote Driver: Rogue ST Max (10.5* set at -1 and neutral) -- Mitsubishi Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Fairway: Rogue ST Max 3 wood (16.5*) and Heaven Wood (20*)-- Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Hybrids: Rogue ST Max 5H (23*)--Tensai Blue 55g R shaft Irons: Apex CF19 6-9, PW, AW -- KBS Tour Graphite TGI 70 shafts R +1/2 inch 3* upright Wedges: Edison 53* and 57* KBS PGI 80 Graphite +1/2 inch 2* upright Putter: L.A.B.

When it arrives you can decide to try it out or sell it. Well I decided to try it today and it actually didn’t play too bad. Had a couple snap hooks but I’m guessing that was more swing related. Gonna give it another go tomorrow and see what happens. I was playing a different course today so hard to get a read with distances. Tomorrow I play my normal course so should have a better read on it. The real surprise today was the P790’s. They felt so good and meet a nice middle ground between a super thin top line and the thicker 699 pros. The reminder strips were a bad idea. I have small hands and prefer to put grips on without any tape to help with size. That isn’t possible with the strips and it lets the air out. I will give it a few more rounds to see if I like the idea of them then will probably go the align route. Also not thrilled with the Z Star Diamonds. Prefer the AVX so will probably try to trade my 2+ dozen for some 2022 AVX’s. sirchunksalot, edingc, ParFore74x and 4 others 7 Quote What is in my Sun Mountain C-130 bag or Jones MyGolfSpy bag Driver: Dark speed LS 8* set to -1.5* with an Attas Daaas 4x shaft @ 45” Fairway: F85 3 wood with a XPhplexx Agera X @ 42.5” F85 5 wood with a UST Elements Chrome 7F5 @ 41.5" Driving Iron: Rapture 2-Iron Irons: SMS Pros 4-PW with Steelfiber I95s Wedges: SMS 50* T grind with Steelfiber i110s Glide 4.0 46* zz wedge shaft Glide 4.0 E grind 54* zz wedge shaft Putters: Mezz.1 34” 69* lie EV5.1 black 33.5” 69* lie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first started almost every grip made had a reminder and when I found one of the few without one, the Tour Velvet Round, I switched and never went back as I have strong grip, worked the ball with different grip positions and always disliked reminder ribs. Then reminder grips from all OEMs started to fade away. Golf Pride simply bringing back the reminder but under the Marketing of Align is a little stroke of genius. sirchunksalot, Rickp, MattF and 2 others 5 Quote Driver: Qi10 10.5* ...

The shaft is there to give weight and feel. If either are off for your swing or could negatively impact your results. When it comes to launch you need to evaluate your swing path, face to path, aoa, dynamic loft and where you are making contact on the face. Also evaluate what those do to spin Kenny B, Vegan_Golfer_PNW, KC Golf and 2 others 5 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning on picking it up soon, things have just been a bit crazy here lately and reading time is at a premium. I can say for certain I enjoy the podcast Jon and Adam put out is one of my favorites. fozcycle, Vegan_Golfer_PNW, GolfSpy_SHARK and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My set is definitely different than my sig, but i haven't updated my sig for a while. But been gaming the Rogue ST LS for a while, my Mizuno JPZ 921 hot metals. Bought some wedges though, seeing if i like the Vokey SM9 wedges or the Ping Glide 4.0 better. I'm known for going through different iron sets, but what i actually churn through the most is grips. I think i'm sticking with the Iomic 1.8 stickys, though i have some gripmaster leather grips sitting in the garage that want a shot lol.

JerryB Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I bought a Callaway Rogue ST Max D driver recently and am liking it so far. It's much more forgiving than my old driver and it seems to launch farther the easier I swing. Also just for the heck of it, I got a couple dozen TaylorMade RBZs to try out.

vandyland Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I posted about this elsewhere but I am so firmly in the honeymoon phase it is unbelieveable. I bought a 12* Speedzone Xtreme to test against my 9* Speedzone SZ (same shaft in both) and the early returns are amazing. My dispersion is much tighter and launch is obviously significantly up but really I just feel like all my strikes (both centered and otherwise) end up in about the same place distance wise. I didn't have any poor strikes off the tee, missed 1 fairway and overall just felt so in control of my driver. I will need to revisit this post in a month and see if I still feel this way. The only thing I can see happening is I continue to hit this driver so well that I decide to try my 9* again because of renewed confidence....or just trying to get back an extra 10 yards I am probably giving up. I should probably just sell the 9* head to prevent this from happening... sirchunksalot, MattF, cksurfdude and 3 others 5 1 Quote STZ 230 9.5* PinHawk SLF 16* STZ 230 Hybrid 21.25* MALTBY TS1-IM 5-GW Equalizer II 54* Glide 4.0 (S) 58* L.A.B.

Jon Sherman is the founder and author on Practical Golf; seems to post a lotta good info about playing the game of golf (ie. on course coaching, and not swing instruction). The first part of the book is all about "Managing Expectations" - which I really really need..... Then he goes into.. "Strategy", "Practice" (he also does a podcast with Adam Young) and "Mental Game". Lots of charts, tables, data, illustrations to help reinforce ideas. The whole thing looks very well produced and presented, and really looking forward to digging through it!

Also want to try the blue for more launch but can’t find that shaft in 65x anywhere besides in a new driver from Callaway. His podcast with Adam young is the bomb. I was tempted to get his book but I already obsess about golf too much Spin for varies from potentially to low to too high. Contact point and club delivery will cause this but will also affect launch.

If you are getting 10-11* and sun 2500 spin that’s going to be a problem especially with that land angle. With that low launch you would want/need more spin to help keep the ball in air probably around 2800 spin. Your land angle should be 40-45ish When doing your testing pay attention to all those numbers on each strike. They all matter when trying to find the best fit Vegan_Golfer_PNW and cksurfdude 2 Quote Driver: PXG 0811 X+ Proto w/UST Helium 5F4 Wood: TaylorMade M5 5W w/Accra TZ5 +1/2”, TaylorMade Sim 3W w/Aldila rogue white Hybrid: PXG Gen2 22* w/AD hybrid Irons: PXG Gen3 0311T w/Nippon modus 120 Wedges: TaylorMade MG2 50*, Tiger grind 56/60 Putter: Scotty Caemeron Super Rat1 Ball: Titleist Prov1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
