So much awesomeness, thanks for sharing.

It's pretty easy to figure out your glove size by simply measuring your hand. That's all I'm saying. You don't need a fancy machine to do that.

I think we're ignoring the real reason it exists...It's fun, it's unique, it stimulates sales.

And a lot of people do that wrong, so I could see why they have a machine at a big store.

Another cool machine- Glove fitting machine that takes a 3D scan of your hand, provides exact measurements and recommends a size

We had something similar for shoes when I was a kid. Dosed everyone in the proximity with X-Rays......

Did you get a radium energy drink afterwards?

I need a Vokey Forged 60K

Stopped into a Callaway store today and got a chance to try the X Forged wedges and they were really nice. Unfortunately 4/10 release date otherwise I would’ve grabbed one

Also saw the “Mini Spinner” and “Mini Buffy” woods but wasn’t able to hit them as another customer came for their fitting appt

X Forged…. But RAW

I have the raw x forged - they are so good.

Ok this might be my craziest find so far. Was going thru the sale bin and find a BRAND NEW 2023 Forged Vokey which is wild as it’s 3 years old and still brand new in plastic. 20k yen which is around $120!

I think I’ve seen enough across a few store selections to be happy with picking up a Vokey Forged that I saw yesterday! Heading back to that store after lunch

These forged Vokeys are SWEET - love that there is no badging crap going on just clean !

What a great thread! Golf shopping and just perusing the stores in Japan is a ton of fun!

After seeing all this cool Japanese stuff, I don't even want the inferior crap the OEMs are releasing in the US. I feel very slighted.
