Recentley I just purchased a Momentus(which is amazing), and for those of you who dont know, its a training aid that you swing that ingrooves the correct plain. Is this legal to carry in your bag if you dont go over the 14 limit of clubs? you dont hit with it, if i were to bring it with me to a course, all i would do is swing it 3 or 4 times when i got the chance to, like if i was waiting. So what do you think? thanks!

Decision 4-4a/7 Carrying Weighted Training Club says that a weighted training club can be carried as long as it conforms with rule 4.1 appendix II and doesn't make you go over the 14 club limit. Appendix II deals with what makes a club conforming. I don't think a momentus conforms to the rules of golf, not because of the weight ( rule 4 does not regulate the weight of a golf club) but because it has a training grip (and maybe some other things as well). So from what I can see make it conform with the rules and you can carry it. Check out the rules website for yourself.

That is correct. You can't carry it unless you modify it to fit the rules, and then it counts against your 14-club limit.

I have a Momentus also and this time of year while I'm just getting my game on track I carry it with me.

I figure I paid my money I'll play like I want too! While waiting around at tee-boxes I'll get it out and swing it a few times.

I'm not referring to while playing in tournaments or scrambles. Mostly right now I play during the week by myself. So I'll take what ever I might want to try out or practice with for the day.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
