I spent a considerable amount of time today testing the latest and greatest from Taylor Made as well as Titleist, Cobra and Ping and I'm nowhere near close to making a decision. I'm not sure if this is the thread to expand on my search for a new driver or if I should start a new one but I have loads of Trackman data that I'm compiling so maybe I'll summarize and share it at some point.

I've been a T.M. guy for a long, long time, going back to the original bubble shaft, but I'm really intrigued by the results I've obtained so far from this year's Titleists, especially the TSR-3. I was sure I was going to choose between just the Stealth 2 and TSR-2. But then, I tried the TSR-3 and was blown away and to complicate matters even further, a very good golfer from my course who I know fairly well (190 mph ball speed) who, coincidentally, was doing the same thing as me in the Trackman bay next to me, was nearly having an orgasm over the new Cobra Aerojet which was never even on my radar, so I tried that, as well. So now I have six, count 'em, 6 heads to deal with, each with two different lofts to consider and God knows how many shafts, so I'm in a dither at the moment. Me being overly analytical when it comes to these kinds of decisions certainly doesn't help matters but as I said in an earlier post, this is kinda fun, although my back is kind of achy after today's activity.

One thing I will say at this point, looking at the numbers I have so far, my current Taylor Made M-3 is in last place by a large margin.

Driver, 3W & 4 Hybrid: 2023 :titleist: TSR3 
Irons: 2020 :titleist: T300
Wedges: 2012 :callaway: XTour 56o & 2021 Jaws 60o

Putter: :odyssey: Marxman (Mallet) / :tmade: Juno (Blade) plus 7 or 8 others in a barrel in my basement

    • The channel itself was an integral part of the course, so no relief. I only got relief because of the sprinkler head that was in the middle of it.
    • Yea, over +4 strokes gained putting. Which is about 3.5 strokes better than what his year strokes gained putting is at.  Regression to the mean might be brutal out there. 
    • The course looks challenging this year with hitting fairways being key. Spaun is leading right now but there’s a long way to go.
    • Ty-Webb Why did you not get relief the from the channel filled with pebbles originally?
    • To set the scene it is the 2023 AMCC conference championship at Indiana CC (Indiana, PA). I walk off 8 flustered after making a triple bogey with a GIR (putted off a false front; and took a couple to get back on). I get to 9 a drivable par 4, and in front of @iacas top the ball so bad it jumps back staying in the teeing area. Since, like many of you I'm sure, I watch the USGA rules videos they put out on Instagram and YouTube, I knew rule 6.2b(6) which states if the ball does not leave the teeing area, you may retee anywhere in the teeing area with no penalty (hitting 2 of course). After embarrassing myself completely and showing & explaining the rule to my playing partners I walked off the hole with a bogey.
