We'll be making changes slowly but surely throughout the winter.  We'll start small, first up: upload limits.  

 

Donors can now upload up to 1GB of attachments

Members remain at 500GB

 

 

Stay tuned.  We'll use this thread to announce new changes.

Did we put some sort of limit on HarintheHat's GIF use though

Stud and Rob  - I like the new "SPY VIP" tag you have. Is that new  - never noticed it before.

Old thread but this has been on my mind every time I've ever seen the most wanted results.

 

It would be amazing if members could access the data for particular testers individually.  Maybe allow for an even more individualized appreciation of the great results.

i.e. May be able to isolate on one tester who produces similar SS/LA/AoA etc .... and see what worked better for that golfer.

Just a thought.

Interesting thought snd i see how it could be useful. Off hand i say they already have so many demands for the data to broken down such as:

list by swing speed

list vs last years winner

list versus last 5 winners

list versus own OEM previous years model. 

List versus drivers hit in 50 degree temps with 20 mph winds.  
well i made that last one up, but you get the idea

I do, I guess it is simply making the existing data available to be sorted.  However I know that is not just one mouse click and it appears.  But in defense of this one thought it is not additional to the data being sorted through each season.

I laugh when people request year-z to be compared to year-x, that is available all over youtube.  It is also not that hard to simply pull up the past data and just look at it.

Though something must be different because when I did that a couple times the data was drastically different ..... 10-15 yd carry different.  So that likely wasn't a good comparison.

 

Yes - this website likely does enough already ..... but someone (was it you?) started this thread and I fell right in the trap!

I think it was my esteemed colleague Studque 

And yes, I don't pretend to know enough about data and how to sort and qualify.    I'm sure too it in a meaningful way Is as you said more then one click. 

But I agree. It would be awesome to put in a filter.  60 year old 15 handicap with 90 mph swing speed and see that guys results for each driver.  Definitely would be of interest.

I'd like to be able to see my own data from all the clubs too

Yeah - that is much better.  MGS is just sitting on their hands, now that you brought it up!

Not sure that understand your comment.  MGS is free to publish whatever information that they want and no matter what they do someone will complain about some aspect of what they do.  Why do you think they are sitting on their hands?

I'm guessing you guys might be talking past each other here (though I could be wrong). @Badams69, @cnosil's comment about wanting to see his own data is a reference to the fact that he does a ton of testing for Most Wanted. So he was joking (though it could happen) that he could narrow down a filter and actually see his own data with each club.

Cnosil, if he doesn't know that you're a tester, the comment about wanting to have your own data visible on MGS would sound absurd, which I think was the basis of his joking comment.

Again, I might be wrong, but I think both of you made jokes that might have been lost on the other.

Right on.

No - I hadn't the slightest clue. I thought he was joking about seeing his own (i.e. that would be most pertinent of all)

Sitting on hands - correct .... in jest as if MyGolfSpy is lazy for not getting every reader their own numbers with every club imaginable.

All kidding aside - input is great!

Sorry to have caused confusion. I forget that new people to the forum don’t know that I am one of the testers.

Not an issue here.

I'm looking at your shafts in your clubs signature 

Seems we likely aren't all that far apart in what we use .

So I'm rooting to see those results individually
