Hey JRC welcome. I'm also new, joined yesterday, but planning on contributing a lot to the forum. I have an Odyssey, Duel Force 2. Personally I never could get into the 2 balls, and especially the new 3 ball. It just seemed to distracting. Anyway, enough of my rant, I'm sure it'll go great for you and welcome!

Thanks for the welcome Minnesotagolfer! Yeah, I never thought I'd go for the 2-ball/3-ball thing either. As it happened I was trying out a number of different styles and brands in the putter-box at our local Bobick's Nevada Bob's store and the two-ball caught me on how easy it was to line-up. Swings and feels great too. At 33 inches, it fits me well. I guess the proof will be in the putting this Saturday. Have a great 4th of July weekend.

Yea. You should let me know how it goes. Maybe I'll have to jump back on the wagon and maybe give it a chance. Good luck and have a great 4th too.

Hey bzotta: Lately it's been Honey Bee, Sewell's Point, and now Bide-a-Wee. I'm really impressed with Bide-a-Wee and am planning to join the association out there. Haven't been to TPC yet, have you?

Well. I'm back from my Saturday round with the new Odyssey 2-ball and loved it. Line-up was so much easier and gave me greater confidence in striking the ball and going fro the cup. Unfortunately, the golfer wasn't so good, shot a 99..not the putter's fault. Yep, I guess I'll keep her.

      3 Wood Shafts

      By rod7515 · Posted

      Im struggling to hit a 3 wood any distance. Im 67 now and used to use a 3 wood all the time. My swing speed with the 3 woods is between 80-84. I am only 5'5" tall. I currently have 4- 3 woods in my used club selection. I have an old Titliest 910FD, a Taylormade Sim2, a PXG gen 4 and a Ping G430. None of these can i hit more than 180 yards and often much shorter. My driver which is a Ping G430 I hit about 210-225. Heres the crazy thing, I carry a Taylormade Sim2- 7 wood that I hit 175-185. I carry an older titliest H1 Hybrid 23* that i hit 165-175. All yardages are with carry. When i hit both the Hybrid and the 7 wood they feel like very solid strikes yet I never feel like i hit any of these 3 woods solid. All of these clubs have regular shafts of different manufacturers. I would like to be able to hit a 3 wood 200 yards. Im thinking I need to start playing with shafts, Maybe even shorten them some. I have equipment to pull shafts and set swingweights and reglue. I have a bunch of reg flex old driver shafts that i could shorten. My driver, 7 wood and Hybrid are all D3 Swingweight. The 3 woods are D3 as well.  Where would you start? Thanks Rod

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By rod7515 · Posted

      This was a great read from start to finish. Ive been watching the LAB putters for 3 or 4 years now. Ive never been a good putter and Ive worked at putting but i just dont seem to get better at it. I play at least 3 times a week with a 11.6 Hdcp and i have owned probably 20+ putters over my last 10 years. Ive even tried the broomstick putters which at first I thought helped but as time went on i missed just as many putts. For me it comes down to nerves which i struggle to control when putting. I always feel like i have someone leaning over me watching my every move when i putt. I had a friend I play with this fall go get fitted for a LAB and he came back all excited, he bought one and he was already a player that probably averages 32 putts a round. So i think I would say hes a good putter. I used his putter a few times and the feeling i get compared to my putter which right now is a Ping Vault 2.0 Piper and just before that an Evnroll ER5v and before that Spyder Ghost........anyway the feeling I notice was that i can take the putter back without it twisting some. At least thats the feeling i get. I dont know if i would be a better putter with a LAB putter but after this year i will know as I went and was fitted and have one on the way. I can only hope it makes a differnce. If not ive got plenty of putters to fall back on!  Rod
