Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?


Recommended Posts

Just ordered this this morning. God knows when I will have a chance to actually hit it. I hit the standard Mavrik before all this shit hit the fan. I absolutely love my Mavrik Pro 3 hybrid, hopefully this is just as good. A 3-wood I can hit consistently is all my bag is missing.

A club in the hand is worth two in the bush / rough.

I have a good friend who I think has been buying them all up. 

He suffers from thinning hair; He claims that sunshine on his head helps his hair grow. Personally, I'm not seeing it. But to each his own.

Trust me, it doesn't. If it did I would look like one of the Ramones from all the sun here.

I bought a groove sharpener for my wedges.  Never tried one before but have heard they can make your wedges spin like new.  Worth a shot to see if it saves me $300-$400 on new wedges.

Welcome to TST!  @bkuehn1952 and @criley4way are located around Ann Arbor.   Go Blue.   There are a lot of "good" members from that team down south but they are good people.  

Enjoy the site.   There is a ton of great information and a lot of great people.   

I've played Leslie Park because of Brian's recommendation and our foursome plays there and really enjoys the course.  

From the land of perpetual cloudiness.   I'm Denny

I was able to get my newly purchased Titleist carry bag out at Rustic Glen last week. It was a good walk of 9. Love the new bag as well. I went for no stand just the lightweight double strap bag.

    • Couple things to update First on the clubs/ball. I switched golf balls to the Left Dash ProV1x. It seems like a great fit for me. I always need lower spin off the tee, it's about a half club longer into greens, and still gives me enough spin with chips and pitches to hit whatever shot I need. The durability is insane too, played 35 holes with one over my last two rounds and it still looked brand new until I lost it. Hybrid is no longer. Couldn’t quite get a consistent strike and the random snap hook left was always lurking as soon as the strike drifted out towards the toe. I know it was me not the club but I couldn’t stand the lefts anymore. Titliest fitting guy came to our club a few days ago and I had been curious about the T200 3iron. I hit a few with it and the stock HZRDUS graphite shaft, it wasn’t bad at all but I could definitely tell when I mishit it. Then the fitter had me try the U505 3iron. When he asked if I was open to trying it I said something like “Isn’t that the game improvement one?” and he said “Just trust me and hit a few with it”. Within 5 swings I was sold. Suddenly it didn’t look as big and chunky when I started hitting rocket after rocket. It did every single thing I want a 3 iron to do. It flies very high, forgiving, can hit it off the tee and ground, can flight it low when needed, and best of all, it doesn’t go left. He had me try to snap hook one left and it resulted in a nice tight draw, nowhere close to a hook. Tried it with the stock shaft and their upgraded one, ended up hitting it the best with the Graphite Design Tour AD IZ-95. Ended up getting a great deal on a used one that arrived yesterday so going to go measure my numbers with it today at the range. I expect to be using this a lot for 2nd shots into par 5s, being that 230-250 club. Hit some on the Mevo+ yesterday and the distance is exactly what I needed.     From a playing perspective, been playing pretty solid so far this season, driving and putting have been solid overall, approach shots have been good for the most part and short game wasn't great to start the year but it's been getting better lately with some more dedicated practice. Compared to scratch over 7 rounds:
    • so with the driver. Feel more arm  width at A4. keep an in the eye on the ball. The first move from the top is lowering the hands down. Don’t mix that up with looking up at the target as the club comes down from A4 with the body. Feel like I get width with the arms from the chest in the Downswing.

    • Went back and reviewed my rounds this year at my home course to fill out the spreadsheet. Realized I have made at least par on each hole but two that I have bogied. At my skill level, it gives me a new confidence that I can play each hole decently well and strong together a lower score. Great mental boost. 
    • I'm at 330 I think. I have a spreadsheet with all of them in it. It helps having lived in two countries. 159 in the US and 136 in the UK. Then a handful in Europe and a few in other countries (Canada, Australia, Mexico).
