There site says it has 22deg of toe hang. Is it really face balanced then? I game a Las Vegas stroke lab but the evnroll love has got me thinking. 

Yeah, that’s fair, it’s an exaggeration to say it’s face-balanced...should have said more face-balanced in comparison to my old putter.   It’s just a lot less hang than my Scotty.  A little hang is better for me since my stroke isn’t quite straight back straight through.

Haven't bought it yet, but I did schedule a fitting for a L.A.B. Directed Force 2.1 putter. The more I keep reading about them (and watching YouTube videos), the more I'm really interested in one. I actually have putted really well (for me) the last two times out by just being focused on being less hunched over - which has solved my speed control and start line issues. 

This would have been the time of year I would have wanted to pull the trigger on a Skytrak (which I've gotten the wife to commit to), but they are 3-4 months delayed due to the additional demand. That means I wouldn't get it until around January, and by that point hopefully I'm only 6-8 weeks away from playing actual golf again. I'll stick to the local heated range for this winter and maybe next year will be a better year for a Skytrak/similar purchase.

Point is, I've been looking for a Christmas/birthday present to myself, and the DF seems like it would be a good fit. It's going to be pricey when all said and done, but hopefully it's the last putter purchase for quite some time. 

Just looked it up, that putter seems like it could open some very large bottles!

Lol. Yes, it is very reminiscent of a gigantic can opener. If it helps me make more putts though... I'm good with it!

I really shouldn’t be buying stuff as our season is winding down but just picked up a Stroke L.A.B. Ten S putter.

I know that pain I tended to get golf stuff for my birthday and then get to play once before having to wait all winter for another round with them. Not the ideal way to break in some new clubs, but sometimes the deal is too good to pass up.

Yeah fall birthdays and living in Iowa doesn’t always work well when getting golf equipment. 
 

I will say that my 40th is Friday so I’m hoping for some gift cards or just money to replenish my PayPal lol

I was able to convince my wife to just let me pick it out so super speed golf is on the way for some winter training.

Even though it is for sale I took it out this morning and put it away after 3 holes. I hit a big push fade in the first so I decided to aim left edge of fairway on 2 and 3 and let it fade back.  This was a terrible idea for me after working so hard to eliminate the right miss. Not only did it not work for the Max, it screwed up the rest of my swings. I am a head case on the course when I can’t find my swing and today was no exception. Gonna have to find a Max D or just move on to something else. 

Well a Sim Max D 9* head is on the way to me. If I can’t make the D work, I guess that will end my Sim experiment.

Maybe I can talk the wife into a TSi3 for my birthday!

Almost pulled the trigger on these but I’m waiting to check out the Mizuno ES21s...

Bought some Kirkland Signature golf gloves.  I normally don't wear a glove, but the price is right so decided to try them.  Very soft!!  I don't know how long they will last, but I can't imagine a softer glove.

Wouldn't you be better off not buying bags with club logos?   Or are you going to collect one from each manufacturer so you can buy anything?

i just love the way Vokeys look and i can’t wait to see how the black patinas and wears in. 

the only question now is 50* or 52* to round out the set. or maybe one of them bent to 51*. too many options.
