Stopped in the local Going, Going, Gone aka Dick's Warehouse/Closeouts. They had the Wilson Staff Model for $30/doz in yellow so I grabbed some to try out.

Went ahead and bought myself another Hell for Leather ball marker. This time venturing into the "Fallout" universe! This is my birthday present to myself as it will arrive in 2 weeks at exactly the right time. More to come of course because Taurus season is approaching 🐂

 

HFL puts out some really cool products -- I was tempted to join their cover club this year, but they usually have a few extras each month that they sell to the public, so I'm holding back and seeing if they do the same this year (last year I bought a couple of the Nintendo-focused ones). 

Driver: :taylormade-small: Stealth Plus 8* (adjusted to 8.75*), Mitsubishi Diamana ZF 70 X Flex (New toy incoming!)

Fairway: :taylormade-small: Stealth2 Plus, 15* (adjusted to 14.25*) w/ Graphite Design Tour AD-IZ 7X

Irons:  :titleist-small: U505 1 Iron (16*), T200 "Utility Build" 3 and 4 irons, all with Graphite Design Tour AD-IZ 95 X Flex, :titleist-small: T100S 5-9 with Nippon Pro Modus 120 X Flex (2021 MGS Test). These things are monsters. 

Wedges:  :vokey-small: SM9 46.10, 54.12, and 58.08, all with custom etchings & KBS Tour Masters-themed shafts, X-flex (CHA Post)

Putter: Total headcase and Putter Ho. Down to two main options in the rotation (one mallet, one blade), but have 4-5 by the basement putting green that might make it in the bag at some point this year... Mallet: :L.A.B.: Mezz XL 36" Orange; Blade: :L.A.B.: Link.1 w/Accra White shaft & :garsen: grip

I was very tempted to do the same but a new headcover every month seems like a little much, would have too many halfway through the year. The Nintendo ones were nice too. Their customer service was great dealing with the shipping and everything coming from the UK.

Odyssey Toulon Design Memphis putter. A few years old but in great condition and feels nice rolling the ball on the indoor putting mat. I've tried a few mallet putters in this shape and really liked the alignment and strike feel when I tried this and the more recent version of the Memphis. Got it for a great price, so if it doesn't work out after some initial testing I shouldn't lose much $$ on resale.

Stellar find @Indy_Oz! Love the record player design on the bottom - gives it a nice touch with the naming.

That was a great find on a Toulon and it looks sharp! I hope you sink some putts with it.

Same. I tried and loved a couple in this shape and was really happy when I saw the condition this is in when it arrived. Very clean and seemingly little used (grip is like new, but could be a recent version added for sale I guess). The milled face has a couple of minor dents around the edge but otherwise immaculate. 🙂

Thanks! The record player was a bonus for me. Music is always on around the house- my wife used to be a professional singer (and I was her roadie on weekends pre-kids) 🙂.

Picked up 3 pairs of Tifosi sunglasses. The Rivet, Seek FC 2.0, and the Centus. The Rivet and Seek FC 2.0 are worth a try but pass on the Centus. I did an unofficial review of all 3.

Driver tech in a hybrid? I'm intrigued. Not sure it finds a permanent spot in the bag but his feels like it could be an absolute weapon for long par 3s or when I'm feeling squirrely on the teebox. Love that it can be adjust 1 degree strong to 2 degrees weaker. Gonna take some time to find the perfect set-up but love the idea of a club I know will get up easy and have some pop.

The Super Hybrid line from Callaway is criminally underrated. But that's due to the hefty price tags. Carried two different versions in my bag for a while. The 2HY and 3HY are get FW replacement options. The #4 you got there is a cross between a 3iron and 7w... it just works.

Its been a good off season for the game and upgrades:

  • Promoted this year (LT, USN) so bought myself a Garmin S70 as a promotion gift.
  • Coworker is moving, recently got new clubs and gifted me his old set: 5-PW,AW Rogue Pro, True Temper S300 Shafts
  • Wife went 50/50 on a new putter for my birthday, so just placed my order for a LAB DF3!! Green, 3 bar alignment (M), Standard shaft, Press II 3* textured grip.
  • Pulled my old GoPro out of storage and got everything set up to start filming my practice sessions and my rounds so i can look back later at what I'm doing wrong.

Was in the market for a Melin Links collection hat, but unfortunately they sold out my size before I could stomach 70$ for a hat. 

Congrats! One of my fitters is a retired LtComm. Something about Navy guys and golf. You will love that garmin. They are great watches, not just for golf.

Found a crazy deal on a Stealth 2+ Driver & 3w. Got to try them out on the sim and let me just say the 3w is HOTTT. Both clubs feel good so be interesting to see some results at the range and the course. Wonder if the Stealth 2+ replaces the G425 Max

Just bought 2 irons off of Callaway pre-owned. Some '21 Apex Pro's, not great at striking my 4-5 irons so looking for something towards the top of my bag to give me more consistent distance. Maybe also give me something I can hit off the tee more consistently than my hybrid. 

Will update with pictures and maybe a mini review once I get them in my hands.
