    Edel grips

    Sorry for what may be a silly question but, I really enjoy putting with my Edel 4.0 putter. But, the grip has gotten as slick as an ice rink. I've tried scrubbing with a green pot scrubber with dish soap, a Brillo pad, even sandpaper but I can't seem to get that tacky feeling back. Does...

    Comments on Vessel VLS DXR

    I walk and carry 3-4 times per week, 6 months out of the year so I walk somewhere between 70 and 100 rounds a season. I've been carrying a SM 2.5 14-way for the past 3 years and, while it has been ok, it is wearing out. I've ordered the Vessel VLS DXR as its replacement and am wondering if...

    Arccos is failing

    I have been an avid Arccos fan for 3 years. I have 2 sets of clubs, 2 sets of sensors, and 2 accounts (because they don't let you have 2 bags on the same account - dumb). Lately, the web apps for Arccos are a joke. The beta version has been available for over a year and is still not...

    Motocaddy vs. MGI

    I'm in the market for a new electric remote trolley. I've used a Cart-tek for the past 6 years but it's time for a change. From what I can ascertain from this forum and from the manufacturers' websites, the M7 and the Navigator AT are pretty close. I'm leaning towards the Navigator AT for a...

    Humbled in Ireland

    Went on a 15 day (11 days of golf) trip to Ireland, returned this week (with Covid). Index went from 7.0 to 8.3 in 11 rounds of golf. The conditions were abysmal. Temps never got above 60, usually in low 50's. Royal County Down (2 rounds), 30+ mph winds; County Louth 25+mph, rain that felt...

    Shipping clubs to Ireland

    Hi, We're preparing for a 14 day trip to Ireland with 11 rounds of golf scheduled. We have heard horror stories of clubs being 'lost' as checked baggage so I am looking at alternatives to getting the clubs there. We are looking at either ShipSticks (www.shipsticks.com) or Luggage Forward...

    SIM2 hybrids/fairways

    I went to my local simulator yesterday for a 'recreational' round of golf. While there and warming up, my pro asked if I had hit the new TM SIM2 driver yet. Nope. Well, after 20 balls with the SIM2 and my older XXIO X, I ordered the new SIM2. Then, just for fun, I asked about fairways and...

    Changing putting styles

    I get in putting ruts. For most of the season of 2020, I was keeping my head down while putting after picking my line and judging my speed. One other quirk I have when putting like this is I keep my left eye closed during the stroke to keep my head still. I really have a hard time with both...

    Is GameGolf dead?

    I also posted this over at the Sandtrap. I've not been able to login to Gamegolf.com for the past couple of days. Does anyone know if the site is still active and if the company is still around?

    P790 replacement rumor?

    I was told yesterday that TM is coming out with a P790 replacement at the end of the month? Does anyone have any information on this? I was getting ready to pull the trigger on a second set of P790's and was told to hold off.

    1st PGA event ever attended - US Open next week - need advice

    I have been into golf for about 15 years but have never attended a professional golf tournament. So, breaking it in right, my wife and I are traveling to Monterey to attend the US Open next week. For you seasoned tournament attendees, especially those who have been to PB, what nuggets of...

    I can only imagine what motivated this

    I assume the guy hit into the next foursome. And, isn't hard to put your bag on the horse? A golfer and a horse are recovering after being injured in separate bobcat attacks in Connecticut on Thursday morning. The attacks happened in Baltic, a small town close to the Rhode Island state line...

    Under Armour shirts and shorts fade horribly

    I keep trying to like UA clothing because it is so comfortable but I can't get more than 6 or 8 rounds out of their shirts because they fade so badly. I'm giving up on their apparel. I love the shoes. It's too bad because their fabrics are so good, especially the HeatGear. Anyone else have...

    P790 - frustration

    I have recently acquired a set of P790s wit the standard stiff graphite shafts. My previous irons were regular flex PSI. Here's my problem: I was very consistent with the PSIs, hitting my 7 iron 175 and my 8 about 160-165. The 790 7i now goes about 185 carry, total distance of about 195-200...
