    Is the utility iron necessary anymore?

    I’d argue that the 7 wood is more versatile than a similar utility iron, maybe I’m crazy. For me, the 7 wood is better from the rough, and easier to hold greens on long approaches. I think the only time I’d prefer the Utility is if I’m into the wind and really trying to keep the shot down...

    Is the utility iron necessary anymore?

    I think so, there are so many more versatile options. I think the growing popularity of the 7 wood, coupled with the tech advances in standard set long irons has made the utility extremely situational. Similar to what you said, I began only using them off of the tee due to the low launch and...

    Could you play a chipper?

    hahaha, forget what I said earlier. Anyone gaming or even considering a chipper needs to turn in their 14-way bag and quit golf immediately.

    Could you play a chipper?

    Yeah, why not? I bought my wife an X-act Tank chipper a few years ago, and it was fun to mess around with that thing! It would be fun to have an excuse to throw another putter cover in the bag!

    I'll say 2,5,8... mostly because the blizzard is the strongest thing on the menu IMO. That said, it'll be sad to see the McD's fries go...

    New tech in drivers and putters

    zero torque putter? No, I’ve tried them before years ago and I didn’t notice an improvement. Driver? Absolutely, In fact I just upgraded this winter and the difference in forgiveness has been a confidence booster.

    Best Electric Toothbrush?

    I have had my old sonicare for 20+ years and love it. My wife found it too aggressive, and bought a quip. I have tried it, but I don’t feel like my teeth get quite as clean, as it is very soft. To each their own though.

    Can “forgiveness” be a bad thing?

    “forgiveness in whatever form” I’ll pick irons, and I’ll assume forgiveness would mean easier to launch, larger sweet spot etc. In my opinion (anyone please correct me if I’m wrong) but there are certain trade offs that come with this forgiveness… such as lower spin numbers, and the irons not...

    How brand loyal are you?

    Callaway for woods and UST Mamiya for shafts. They always get first crack based on how they have treated me and other THPers.

    It's Jalapeno if I'm eating something mild like sub sandwiches, salt/vinegar if I'm already eating something spicy or super flavorful.

    The Education Zone – Putter Face Milling

    Great article! It was interesting to hear Sean say that through milling they can achieve a more perfectly flat surface! I wonder what impact milling has on distance control as well. IE if all other things were equal, would a putter with deeper milling putt balls longer or shorter when compared...

    I always keep the Seemore m6 around just in case my putter misbehaves.

    Why the hate on 14-way bags?

    Eh, I could take or leave the 14-way divider. I currently have an old OGIO Machu bag, but that thing is a behemoth (maybe partly because I over-stuff it.) I think my next cart bag will be a smaller, 5-way divider, as @JB has mentioned (numerous time ;)) I could see shaving off a few seconds...

    WWYO - Manny’s Burritos/Loaded Nachos/Bowls

    A burrito with al pastor and all the toppings. I'd probably try the salsa verde or creamy chipotle sauce... bonus if either is a little more spicy.
