    Which ball would you choose?

    Spent some time today at the PGATSS testing some golf balls with a 54* wedge and 7i Srixon Z-Star Mizuno RB MAX Mizuno RB566 I set the greens at 75 and 140 yards, so that will effect the total distance as the balls tend to slow down on greens. I didn't hit driver because I ran out of time...

    Club Champion now offering $25 0.5 hour "Current Bag Assessment"

    Saw this on IG: Apparently @Club Champion is offering to assess your current bag set up for $25.00 for a 30 minute time frame. I like it. Yes, it gets me in the door however it also gives me a snapshot of my bag. Cheaper than renting Sim time with a Trackman and you get the fitter experience.

    Golf isn't a technique game, not a Mental Game, It's a PROBLEM SOLVING GAME

    Saw this on "X" today: I don't know if I disagree with this. Might be why I like golf so much, It's a "What is the quickest way to get myself out of trouble" game. Think anyone that I've seen play this game well have been "Problem Solvers" Thoughts on this?

    So the Theoretical Physicist in me (Think Leonard Hofstadter not Sheldon Cooper) thinks that the all of the smoke from the Canadian wildfires here in the midwest has an effect on the golf ball distance. When you see Orange Sunrises and Sunsets, you can tell there's obviously particles in...

    Club Gaps - How wide/tightly gapped are your Irons?

    I saw this photo on the ShotScope X5 thread and it makes me wonder how tightly gapped your irons are? With all conditions being benign - Would this gap of 156 to 159 cause you to change clubs? If the goal of any weekend "Hack" is aim for the center of the green, does 3 yards matter? 6 yards...
