Bought a Callaway X460 Tour 9.5 today.

I tried the Nike Sasquatch, Tietlest 905T, Callaway X460 standard and several others.

I hit the X460 Tour straighter than I've hit a driver in years.

I didn't like the Nike at all. The standard X460 had a noticable fade to it. The Tietlest jarred my hands when I hit it.

Keep in mind that until today I played with a Ping ISI wood driver. I never could hit a metal wood.

I'm still trying to figure out what he meant by "jarred his hands."

Well, I broke down and bought myself some fairway woods and irons to go with my new Driver.

I got the 3,5,7 X-fairway woods
and 3-SW X-18 irons.

I still have to get used the the little bit of difference in yardage but so far so good. No regrets yet

Looking to get a new bag soon also.

IACAS- you asked;
........I'm still trying to figure out what he meant by "jarred his hands."

Well here in the south it's the same as "rattled", "vibrated" etc. (It felt like I was hitting rocks not golf balls)

but both of those words just don't have the same ring to them

    • I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers 
    • is it though?????? "Millions of fans"?????
    • Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.
    • So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon 
    • It is a known technique, similar to the armed forces box technique. They use a 4x4 , in through the nose and out through the mouth. I use it to go to sleep fairly often. It works for me
