Yeah, no more ProV1x in there. You'll be inserting a TaylorMade Red under "ball."

Boy-oh-boy... There's a lot of TaylorMade stuff in there these days. Rafi would be proud.

if it's a ball - it has to be black, not red... note he'd be switching from Prov1x, not Prov1.
As far as TM dominance goes - what can I say. I guess I was just ahead of the time, taking all the abuse couple years ago ( some quotes with koolaid drinking come to mind )

Ball and or 3 wood are my best guesses. You should really try the TP satin wedges too. The Taylor made koolaid tastes real good!

if you like RAC satin wedges - try the black nickle Y-cutters... according to TM advertisment they're adding 400rpm to a shot comparing to "regular" cut groves... That's the Raspberry koolaid, sweetest thing ever

ok, ok, spin-milled Vokeys are comparable....

I have a pair of RACs. The 54 degree RAC is what convinced me to go with a 54 and a 60 instead of 56/60.

But the 60 has 6 degrees of bounce and, despite what the guy who designed it tells me, I could feel the bounce and I didn't like it. So Vokeys are available in 60.04 models, so I have vokey wedges. The 3-wood stays. I like the r7 steel and like the r7 TP. And no, it's not the TP Red, either.

I shouldn't have edited my original post which said "black."

Well, it's done. The only reason a slash exists is because of what you see attached.

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
