I'm going to need something when my hitting bay is complete, but haven't decided what to get yet.  Will have to start looking at options.

I’m a BIG Detroit sports fan, so “Another One Bites the Dust” is a favorite song of mine (Detroit Lions victory song when I was a kid), and is representative of my relationship with drivers, so today that song played again as I made a switch from the Stealth to a Ping G425 LST 9* with a Speeder 661 TR shaft. I’m not going to be effusive about numbers BECAUSE of my history, but I did see what I was looking for, so I hope it translates on-course. 
Here’s a link to info on the Speeder TR

An order has been placed for a new bag. I got tired of fighting with getting clubs in and out of the 14-way top. (My buddy kept thinking I was mad but it was clubs getting stuck going in out. 😂) Forbthe first time a Ping Japan exclusive ticked all of the boxes. I walk with a pushcart most of the time and ride occasionally.

Had already mentioned a few posts back … rcvd Shot Scope’s H4 in the mail ystrdy evening and my initial impressions are that I’m really going to enjoy this purchase. 

Was hesitant on the H4 for I didn’t think I’d be all that jazzed about the belt clip, along with its available hook … but I had no idea it attached to the belt clip via a nice strong magnet. And the tags are, IMO, way more aesthetically clean than Arccos and less obtrusive. 

Look fwd to posting my non-wind and non-cart path aided 335+ yard 💣! 😜

I visited the Shot Scope thread and got all my questions answered there. 

To be honest, I never gave Arccos a fair shake. They came with the Cobra F9 OLs via built into the Lamkin grips, then got the screw-ons for the remainder of my clubs.

Between the screw-ons and my phone needing to be in my pocket, I gave up after 3 rounds or so.

It's a shame they don't have the 2 for $60 deal on the yellow ones and it's even sadder they don't sell the 4 packs of them. I would have snagged them up if they did. I can't say I've ever played a yellow ball, but it's been pretty tempting lately. 

The MaxFli Tour is one of the best balls I've played in a long time. Love the feel off every club in the bag and most importantly I love the way they perform into the green. Hot one today from about 70 yards out and it stopped an inch from the ball mark.
