I'm surprised a pitchmark repairer is considered and accessory. I played in a tournament where we had to show we had one in our bags and were fined or told to buy one from the pro shop if you didn't have one!

In the Matrix XTT Standbag:

Driver: Biggest Big Bertha 11*
Fairway Wood: Steelhead Plus 3 Wood
Irons: T-Zoid Titanium Insert irons 3-SWWedge: Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.04Putter: Pro Platinum Laguna 34" w/ British Open '04 headcoverBall: ProV1 Rule35 Playing again after a three year hiatus...

I can't decide between a towel and a pitch mark repairer, if pushed I'd say towel because at a pinch you can get away with using a tee to fix pitch marks, wiping your grips dry and mud off your clubs with your shirt would probably be considered bad form although I'd do it if I had to and deal with the consequences of ruining a shirt when I got home and the missus saw it

i should proly get a divot tool. don't know if they make a divot/ball marker that clips on the hat. Most i've seen arn't cheap tho. Youd think a divot tool wouldn't be more than 4-5 bucks. but i've seen them for $10-$15 :\

In the bag:
Driver: Slazenger Wrath
3-Wood: Slazenger Wrath
Irons: Slazenger Wrath
PW: Slazenger WrathSW: None yetLW: None yetPutter: Slazenger WrathBall: Slazenger Raw(yes, it was a package)

My bag towel. I've got an Augusta National bag towel that's made of heavy terry cloth. It's green on one side and white on the other. I use the white side to wipe and dry my hands and face. I use the green side to keep my clubs clean and dry. I take it off and wash it every couple of rounds so that it stays nice and clean.

Just make sure you know how to use it correctly!

I always stabbed around it then tapped down on it, never lifted up on it since I saw a pro on TV do it and tried to emulate him (don't remember who). But either he was doing it wrong or I didn't see exactly what I thought I saw.

Thanks for the tip, I have never seen anyone fix them that way before.

My single-most necessary item is my Bushnell Rangefinder. There's other things too but narrowing it down to one thing, that has to be it. It works not only for me but my wife as well and/or anyone else in my group that wants to use it or have me check their yardage for them. I NEVER volunteer yardage; they have to ask but I make sure they know I have it with me.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
