What would you like to see MyGolfSpy test?

Any boutique putter over $1000 vs the top putter tested at MyGolfSpy

 

I really want to see like a Tyson Lamb vs Evnroll or something. Even better the sub $100 Cleveland Huntington Beach vs a $1000+ putter

How about testing the boutique putter against something like say a 60s Mac Ironmaster or an original 1972 Ping Slotted Anser? Yes I have about 100 vintage putters. I like the thought of testing my rusty lead taped 1998 Santa Fe against a new Scotty or my lake refugee battered lead taped Rosa Daytona against a new T-Mag

To expand on the wild turkey. Just an all around whiskey test. After 3,6,10 drinks which one makes you play better.

 

Yup. We'll have to add you to the testing panel on this one. :D

Exactly! An original dalehead anser vs a cameron 009. What is that 8-10k getting you?

 

Not bashing on the scotties - I collect the studio designs, circa 62's and the old aop's. But... I've never spent over $100-150 on a putter (I like to refurb the old ones).

I also have always wanted to test the Cobra Ferrari see what the $2,000 driver could do. Was it better than the regular Cobra of the day? Is it better than my trusty Ping Anser?

Premium shaft ONLY MBP,

 

How about "spined/pured " shafts versus "randomly" installed shafts

 

Or the Wilson Triton set up in "illegal" mode

Grips grips and grips! Tapered vs. non. How much difference does it really make if your grips are the wrong size. I would love to see these sorts of things looked into, maybe even some head to head testing like golf pride's mcc vs. mcc plus 4.

That being said, I wholeheartedly agree that the SLDR C needs to be tested in some official capacity. It's like the most infamous club on the forum.

Great idea...but don't limit your testing to the SLDR-C Driver!  You should also test the SLDR-C Fairways and the SLDR-C Rescue Hybrids as well.  (I suggest the lofts shown below).

 

 All perform very well!.. :)

If the SLDR-C is tested, it should be tested with OTHER non-conforming drivers.  What are the distance gains of non-conforming drivers over the MGS Most Wanted?  Are they accurate or not?

Only Taylormade knows if the SLDR-C Driver is non-conforming, (because it fails the CT test), but it does seem to be a very 'HOT' clubface. :rolleyes:

 

In the absence of any formal declaration that it has been deemed 'non-conforming', I plan to keep on playing it.. :P
