Clayton Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 3 hours ago, LeftyMatt89 said: I need to get in and di a gapping session with both to compare. For reference my current 60 is my 100 yard shot. It won’t go further so I just take a nice smooth swing and if the number is 100 I’ll be between 90-97. That's about where I'm at these days as well, so anything you have would be very useful for me as well. I'm supposed to be working at a simulator business this winter so I have LOTS of time for that kind of thing... wish I had the clubs to test though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the view from the 10th tee.

Popular Post gavinski91 Posted September 9, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2021 Ran into a herd of elk a few holes later. I was a little nervous - there was a bull elk just off screen in the trees bugling every few minutes, and a few of the closer elk were snorting at me like they didn't want me there. Made it a bit tough to be totally focused on the shot, so I blocked the 8-iron a little bit right. 5 3 3 Quote Driver - Radspeed XB, Aldila Rogue Silver 70-S 3 Wood - Radspeed, Aldila Rogue Silver 70-S 5 Wood - Radspeed, Fujikura Motore X F3 6-S 7 Wood - PXG 0341x Gen 4, Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Blue 75-S Irons - Radspeed 5-GW, KBS $-Taper Lite S Wedges - King Cobra Snakebite 52° & 58°, KBS Hi-Rev 2.0 S Putter - Stroke Lab Black Ten 35" Ball - Z-Star XV Powered by Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of UNC basketball when Dean Smith made the team sprint a lap if anyone missed a free throw at practice. Buzz Peterson missed and they sprinted, and getting back to the FT line Buzz threw up. He then bounced the ball in the vommit 2 times just like his normal routine and sank the free throw. Dean Smith said "THAT is the concentration I am looking for". 3 3 Quote Driver: SIM2 Max 10.5* ... AD-IZ 6SR Fairway: SIM2 Max 15/18* ... Tensei Raw Blue 65R Hybrids: RBZ Tour Hybrid 21.5* ...

I haven't played much golf north of Texas, but I remember playing up west of Calgary and seeing warning signs for bears. Being a Baylor guy, I thought it was cool but didn't really heed the warning. I started the round -3 thru 6 and then ran into a couple of black bears on the 7th tee. It wasn't the fun, cuddly experience that I'm used to seeing at my local zoo. They were pretty aggressive and we had to retreat for a bit. Needless to say, I proceeded to play the remaining 12 holes +12. I think I'll stick with snakes, rabbits, deer and nutria here in the piney woods of SE Texas. Y'all are nuts hitting golf balls next to wildlife of that size. Or maybe your balls are just bigger. 4 Quote Cobra Connect 5 Competitor - Team Chad King Radspeed 10.5* w/ Hzrdus RDX Blue 60 6.5 tipped 1/2" - Peacoat/Red King Radspeed Big Tour 3 Wood w/ Hzrdus RDX Blue 70 6.5 Tipped 1/2" King Radspeed Tour 5 Wood w/ Motore X F1 70 X Flex King Utility 4 21* w/ Tensei Pro White 100 X Flex King Tour MIM Copper Irons 5-G w/ AMT White X100 Onyx King MIM Black Wedges 55* & 60* w/ AMT White X100 Onyx Spider SR Pro V1x Left Dash Lefty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey @gavinski91, I'm over on the east side of the state. So if you need to make a golf trip to an area that is sunny and dry to better test those clubs you are welcome over here. Tell the wife that 4 or 5 rounds on different grass types is really needed for testing. Sea level VS 2000' might be worth looking at, even the effects of humidity on the finish would be worth a set of pictures I'm sure 1 1 Quote WITB: Driver: SIM2 Max 12° - Accra TZ6 M4 FW Wood: Gen5 0311 7w Fujikura Motore X F3 Utility: King Forged 20.5° Utility - Catalyst X Irons: D7 Forged GW-5i - Recoils Wedges: JB 52° , 286 56° Putter: MySpider X Cart: Onewheel XR+ Ball: Z-Star Diamond 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
