Just ordered an used Adams 2014 Tight Lies Fairway 5 Wood for a nice cheap price. Very curious to test it out.
Been looking for a fairway wood to replace my 3 hybrid to help give me a bit more distance on par 5's and long par 4's.

@retoid you’re gonna like the vice better. I use them both Bridgestone e12 and vice 

Well you were certainly right about this. Didn't notice much difference from when I switched to the e12's from the Kirkland balls. But today when I first tried the Vice Pro's, wow noticeable difference. Longest drives I've had so far and I think I need to club down on iron shots with it. Kept overshooting the green with them. Great feel and sound too.

I am using up my Taylor made distance balls. Went thru half of my tp5’s. Prolly finish the season with axt titliest. But not buying any. I still have a few hundred maxfli balls in my safe.

They are Still in the box. lol

   Maxfli softfli is the specific name. I hate hitting a ball that has anything solid or like hitting a rock. In the past (a few seasons ago) I remember using maxfli but they scuffed easily. So I went with a more expensive albeit “soft” ball. 
With the maxfli purchase ,off season, I. got over a hundred balls for eighty bucks so I figure what the hell.

54 and 58 degree SM9 wedges, replacing 4 year old Callaways.

Have chipped with them twice so far and 1 range session.

Carry yardages were right where I expected, nothing crazy there. They did seem to launch MUCH higher than what I'm used to, but it possibly could have been the range balls too since I was at a different range than usual and they weren't the best quality balls.

 

Chipping has taken some getting used to, significantly more spin and stopping power especially on uphill shots. 

Generating quite a bit more spin out of the rough too.

I went through those Vice Pro Plus' too fast lol. Loved them but I lost 6 the other day. 2 over the fence and the rest in bushes/tall grass. Decided to pick up and try out the Sugar balls. If those go just as fast, I'll probably resort to looking for a deal like you just got :D

Just picked up a mint condition Spider X Hydroblast putter. 

35", small slant neck. 

Been putting with a blade for a while but haven't been a fan of it inside 10 feet.

This Spider X seems much better inside 10 feet so far during my practice session today.

What I like best about that putter is the ability to tap in the small putts from the opposite end. I have the ordinary knock off.  By far the best club in the bag.

      Bryson DeChambeau Breaking 50 With DT

      By Beastie ·

      The course I mentioned was not Turnberry but Trump International links in Aberdeen. A course I have played and rated  it a “5” on my “golf courses I have played ranking”.  i am not alone in thinking its amazing, but apparently it has to be top 3 world wide to qualify for that. If anyone else has played it and has a ranking for it then please share. I realise it’s still off topic, but i wrote a 2 line comment which seems to be generating a lot of discussion.  And any list that has the Old course in the top ten world wide is obviously bollocks. It’s not even the best course in St Andrews. ( making no allowance for historical value)

      Anyone Shipped Their Golf Clubs?

      By Conner ·

      I'm planning on traveling and was thinking of shipping my clubs instead of taking them with me in the airplane as I have layovers and that would be an 'extra' luggage for me. I've looked into ShipPup and ShipSticks, I got a better price with ShipPup but they seem to be newer on the market. One of my buddies used it a few times with no issues, was wondering if anybody else here used ShipPup? I know about ShipSticks, was just looking into alternatives as I have had a few issues in the past with them when a shipment was delayed. To be fair, it wasn't probably their fault, more carrier fault. And their prices seems to go higher…

      Clear Golf Balls?

      I thought the same thing. I was disappointed after a google search.

      I thought for a second you meant a golf ball that was quite literally clear. Like see through.
