I went to my local Dick's Sporting Goods last night to get some tees, balls, and such. I just happened to be checking out their sale items and ran across an odd Nike Dymo driver. I have the Dymo2 3 wood and love it, and have thought about getting a Dymo driver. Although this Dymo is not a STR8 fit, it does have the yellow UST Proforce 79 shaft like the STR8s. All of the non STR8s that I have seen, have the black 55gram Wide Body shaft. One other thing, the top of the club had no alignment marking. The salesman had no information about these differences. It has a legit serial number on the head. I am really interested in getting this Dymo, since I want the heavier shaft but no STR8. Oh yeah it was $99 just like the other no STR8s. Has anyone seen others with this configuration? Could it be a fake that got through to Dick's? Maybe a STR8 that was made into a standard?

In my  Warbird Hot stand bag:

 Classic #1,  NXT Tour or  Burner TP

I called Nike Customer Service and they verified that a few non-STR8 Dymo's were released with the STR8 upgraded shaft. I had a $20 off coupon and a $30 Rewards certificate, so went to Dick's yesterday and picked it up. $50 for a new Dymo 10.5 ain't bad at all. Now if I could just have some days off without rain, I would be happy.

That seems like an odd find to me as well. Not too bad of a combo, the STR8 model didn't do too well with me but it was the shaft, it felt too board like. Hope it goes well!

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
