yea, you can get them alot cheaper

G5 Driver(10.5*)
G5 Fairways (15* and 18*) Dual Force 2 #1Home Course Indian Valley

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.
i saw a brand new one on ebay for about 150-something

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.

    • Par is just a guideline, a reference for a hole or a course. At the end of the tournament the player that took less strokes to hole out is the winner, no matter how much it is against the Par of the course.  35 under par is not desirable? then change a few holes par.. make all reachable par 5's as par 4's.  Every hole below 350 is a par 3.. This will make those 7200 courses play "harder" with a par of 66..67.  (Ridiculous, let's just appreciate the amazing game this players have).
    • Didn't Mike Souchak (and possibly others as I'm just going by memory, but I'm pretty sure Souchak was first) shoot a 257 years ago?  It wasn't on a par 73, so it wasn't 35 under, but still.  
    • I like Golf Pad app.  I do pay a little per year for the premium version.  
    • Sounds like you're trying to prune gorse.  Seems as if gorse can actually throw its needles at anyone nearby!
    • BTW - The bush was ugly.  Anyway, in an attempt to add some clarity the ball was under some of the branches of the bush. But the bush was shaped in such a way where a left handed player could have played the shot without hitting any of the branches. A right handed player would have no chance. Thus my buddy/opponent I think was "reasonable" in addressing the ball with a flipped over 7 iron as he could have hit it lefty. .... There was, however, no guarantee that he would get good results as I've actually never seen him try to hit a ball in that manor in all the years I've played with him.
