I'm not trying to really disagree with you guys.. but you think that a like new taylormade r5 with an Aldila NV65r shaft for $157 is a bad deal? A brand new NV65r shaft runs for around $90 itself unless I'm just finding bad deals.

can't you still get tm R580XD's at dicks sporting goods for 150 bucks. Wouldn't they be on par with an R5 Dual anyways? Depending on the dicks you can find aldila shafts on some of them.

I'm terrible, but i have fun.

oh..well if it's BRAND NEW..that's a different story..thought I was looking at used prices..if that's the price shipped..then sounds good..I guess I've never bought anything brand new for golf equipment (besides clothes, balls, putters, tees) They're like cars..once you "drive" it..it's gonna drop..

Yeah, i just bought an R5 on ebay about 2 months ago for $130+$15 shipping= $145. It was new with a headcover, but only had a stock TM shaft.

    • Day 118 - Spent some time working on the full swing. Need to film some swings for Evolvr tomorrow. 
    • playing with cleveland hybrid irons have friends that use hybrids anyone using hybrid irons or hybrids would appreciate fwwdback
    • I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory. 
    • Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
    • Day 296: did a stack session.
