Fox Hollow is the closest course for me, so I play there often. I played Sleepy Ridge a few times last year. Only made it down to Hobble Creek once, but really liked it.
I had been debating between the Speedblades and the CBs. I went to the Taylormade performance lab up at River Oaks and the system recommended the CBs. I hit them on the range and really liked them. They do measure half an inch shorter than the burners, but that didn't give me too much trouble. Distance wise they were roughly 10 yards longer.
I need clubs that are 1/2 to 1 inch long, so if I went CB, I'd have to go custom or put in extensions. The longer SB's fit right out of the box and I scored a new set for just $350, so I'm loathe to switch.
Well, if the snow ever leaves, we'll really be able to compare TMag stuff side by side, won't we. I have a new Jetspeed driver and HL 3 wood I'm testing, but they are not proving longer than what I hit now. Nice feeling clubs though, I can't complain. I'm waiting for those Bertha's to hit the street as my Optiforce was an eye-opening surprise when it bested the RBZ 2, R1 and SLDR in my tests. The guys on this forum like Jman and Hawk who liked the Opti rave about the BB's.
How much snow does Fox Hollow have? My scouting shows that NOTHING in this valley is close to being playable.
