No3PuttLaLa Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Looking forward to this! Excited to see, as a high handicap golfer, if it really does help me form more of a process for every shot.

Bortery Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 These look well worth trying out. I would love the opportunity to test this technology out. I would love to see if it will drop stocks off my high handicap. William P 1 I am a golfer that is getting back into the game. With luck I will get to update my lower handicap.

Kgrover59 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) I love this idea and the opportunity to test out the mindset concept!!!. I stopped using a line on my ball about 2 years ago and just use a single circle drawn with sharpie (primarily for putting), it will be interesting to see if the mindset “logo” will be beneficial off the tee as well. Thanks to MGS and Bridgestone for putting this test/trail on. Cheers!!!

Yes, it struck me as interesting. I was once told, focus on the top, center of the ball, not the back of the ball; you want to essentially think impact 1/2"-1" ahead of where you really want to make contact so you hit the ball first, this seems to take a new twist on that "focal point" concept and expands it.
