The 2021 Titleist Experience is Here!
Emptied the golf bag and used the leaf blower on high to blow all the dust off. ?
Now to wash the grips, then all of the clothes from the trip!

Just walked in the door, what a long day to finish off a great week. Left the hotel 21 1/2 hrs ago. Clubs made it hike in one piece and they will be getting cleaned up tomorrow

Glad you made it home.

hope the grip tip works out for you! Great to meet you and the others. We will plan a Carolinas gathering soon!

That tip was magical, I’m not exaggerating either. I played today on my Dad’s home course and I only missed one fairway on the front and that one missed by a couple of feet. Back 9 I missed 3 but I drove thru a dogleg on on number 10 and other two were barely off line. Iron play was way better too, the irons just feel so great at impact and the ball was jumping off the face. I had a side hill lie on the 7th hole and put a horrible swing on my 8 iron lay up shot and hit the ball 20 yards. Caught my breath on the next shot that had basically the same lie focused on my grip and hit a nice baby draw 168 yards with the 8 to finish the layup. I love these T200s they are so solid if you put a half decent swing on the shot and much more forgiving than I expected.

Love to hear it. The soles on the T Series are just fantastic! They have something going brining in the Vokey Team
Reminder fellas: Don’t forget to wash those grips! All kinds of dusty.
Yuck!
Luke emailed me today about my missing GW!
With all he has going on he remembered!
He had a very nice comment on the TSi4 performance I had that last day and blew me away!
He wanted to confirm specs and shipping before getting it in motion. Asked him a couple questions and let him know I’ll be adding another Titleist club at the top end!
What a couple great guys Titleist has!
I’m always slow at getting a wrapup to an event out, but it will happen. Following another great THP experience in the mean time.
Thanks again Luke for the follow-up and kind words!

I played with Luke both days and he really was a great guy.
I would like to share a memory with you of your drive with that TSI4 on the 14th. And the green was elevated #beastmode…..[ATTACH type=”full”]9038813[/ATTACH]

That putt looked more like 15 ft haha. Makes sense as I calculated just under 300yds to the front of the green.
That was a fun line! Needed to as Luke also drove just left of the green. I really appreciated the first part of your read putt.

Thanks for clearing that up. I was about to read through the thread again. I was wondering how I missed that and why weren’t there 2 pages dedicated to a monster putt getting drained.

GPS might be off a few feet but it was at least 50 to 60 up hill. Heck I was 15 ft short on my try… That was some of the greatest shots I have seen in person.

I enjoyed that hole a lot.
The drive on the stairway to seven was nutted…170 out for approach. Been a while since I’ve had two eagles in a round (stairway one was with a pop of course) Such a great day golfing with you, [USER=25892]@GoldenBuff[/USER] and Luke!

Here was your drive, ignore my second and third shots and it was nice I didn’t have to putt. What was the iron you hit for your second shot? To bad I don’t have a 3D version of the hole I think people would really appreciate your drive and approach shot much more. You did yourself and Titleist proud on this one. [ATTACH type=”full”]9038842[/ATTACH]
305 up that hill on that course is nuckin’ futz. That’s all I’m saying.

8I for approach, maybe that’s why it flew the green?

BEAST!
I hit a pretty damn good drive on that hole Sunday as well with [USER=38594]@MH[/USER] TSi4, but nowhere near 305…probably 270yds which is a good poke seeing that hole is straight up hill. [USER=10934]@J4U[/USER] puts a beast of a turn on the ball!!!

Luke has been awesome from Titleist helping me figure things out with the irons and the pending GW.
Got an email yesterday following up on both irons and the GW. Unbelievable really, but not really once you meet both him and JT. Getting through some things at home and then will reach out to him maybe tomorrow.
Quite amazing really since none of it was a Titleist issue at all!
I ordered a 16.5* tsi3 with a tour ad-di 7s shaft the other day. That purchase was definitely made because of the experience. It will have a tough time knocking the mizuno 3 wood out but if it is anything remotely like the tsi4 driver it will get in. Looking at my bag now the only thing that isn’t Titleist are my 54*/58* wedges, putter and bag. I do need some new wedges for next year so may have to order some sm9’s in the spring. I am missing golf already, I really need to move South

When I talk to Luke I will probably ask about the T200 2I DI. The combo I want is pricey but want it so bad.. It is showing 10 weeks out with the shaft pairing.. May also ask about buying another TSi4 to replace the one I lent out and getting the next step up in the shaft flex.
This release is so good across the board!
I am considering buying some Vokey 52 and 56 wedges That would give me a 4 degree gap for my wedges. Currently I have a 48, 54 and 60. Not sure if I will but I am thinking it over.
The final member of the new family showed up today!

That club is just fantastic, the star of the set so far for me. I think you are going to love it, it did everything for me from 120y and around the green it is just so versatile. The only thing I didn’t use it for was bunker shots

Love having a other wedge option besides the PW that I’ll full swing. The 9,PW, and now the GW will also be used for touch shots.
