Yesterday, I went out during these Indian summer days we're having in the Northeast this November and decided to depart from the B330RX/E5's and use the TF Gamers. Beat my previous low round by 4 strokes.

... course was short too. I'm calling out sick today and playing so I may mix the two for more comparison.

I just got 'em home and putted with one in my house and it most definatly feels amazing off the putter, very,very pleased so far.. Ill get to try em on the course tomorow.

9.99 for 15 Used Callaway HX Tours

if your talking about online, yeah i like the prices too, but then you end up paying nearly another 10 bucks for shipping and tax, so it kinda dilutes the deal..

if your talking about at a store, all the power to ya.

+1 for the Srixon AD333. An outstanding ball for distance off the tee and feel/spin/stopping power around the greens at its price.

FYI - at my local Wal-Mart they have Callaway Warbirds on closeout for $9/dozen . I bought a few boxes . This was the first time I have used Callaway balls and I did like them .

I picked up some Bridgestone e6 balls last night at Dicks for 25$. I got them because they say they reduce spin and help hit straighter shots. I already put enough spin with my wedges to check up the ball, but it is embarrassing when I slice 1 out of 5 drives really bad. Hopefully they treat me well.

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
