He plays both the TP5 and ProV practice. This is a killer price too! They carry them regularly at PGATSS for $29. In fact I am swinging by there tonight for the TP5's. My "gottahaveitnowitis" won't let me wait to have them shipped so I'll have to forego the $10 savings. Still, $30 for a $55 box is a hell of a deal in itself. Great "awareness" post!

sirchunksalot 16,368 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Thanks for the information, I just ordered two dozen of the pix. At that price it's hard to pass up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRJyzr 1,241 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Piling on with thanks for Brother @chisag for sharing this. I jumped on five dozen of the TP5 when he'd posted them in another thread a couple weeks ago. Quite happy with them. Amusingly, I lost the very first one I'd put in play, with Mr Snappy showing up, taking the ball off a tree, and subsequently into a small pond. I said bad words, dropped, moved on, and since then have played with the same two balls in my pocket. One is showing some wear after 4 or 5 rounds, but they've held up well, overall. Thanks again, Sam. <tip cap> Last note, I also like that they came in little bags, instead of the boxes. 3 Quote Driver: TM Original One 11.5* set to 11*, Aldila NV75 X, 43.5" -or- SpeedZone, HZRDUS Black 75 6.5, 43.5" 3w: Cobra King LTD, RIP Beta 90, 42" -or- Stage 2 Tour, NV105 X, 42.5" 2h or 3h: TaylorMade Stage 2 Tour, Aldila NV105 S -or- RIP Alpha 105 S Irons: 3-PW Mizuno MP37, Recoil Proto 125 F4 (reshaft in progress, slowly); 1i & 3-PW Golden Ram TW276, NV105 S; 2-PW Golden Ram TW282, RIP Tour 115 R GW: Dynacraft Dual Milled CNC 52*, Steelfiber 125 S; Scratch 8620 DS 53*, Steelfiber 125 S SW: Ram TG-898 56*, DGX ss2x; Ram Tom Watson 55*, DGX ss2x; Wilson Staff PMP 58*, DGS; PM Grind 19 58*, stock shaft Putter: Snake Eyes Viper Tour Sv1, 34"; Ping Scottsdale TR Craz-E, 35"; Cleveland Huntington Beach 1, 35" Ball: Wilson Staff Duo Professional, Bridgestone Tour B-RXS, Callaway Chrome Soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
