Forget about money and the cost, what would you rather have in your bag and why.

1. A particular well known manufacturer made driver( any make or model) with a stock proprietary shaft (unknown maker) that has their silk screen logo and paint right off the shelf after you fondled, wiggled, oggled, and hit it into an indoor net

OR

2. A high quality component head such as SMT, Bang, Alpha, or Geek with a super shaft such as Accuflex, Harrison, Penley, etc. custom fitted on the driving range for distance, trajectory, accuracy, and consistency.

I don't want anything, doesn't matter to me one bit. Just curious where all of you guys are coming from in your decision making for clubs. From what I see in the "what's in the bag" area of most everyones posts, I think it's evident.

Lead Tape,

I'll take choice #3. Using an interchangeable head system such as Nakashima, Callaway's Optifit, or TaylorMade's Selectfit to try out numerous head and shaft combinations on a range with a launch monitor until the customer find the appropriate combination for him or herself and then custom ordering that club and having it delivered to their door.

I would love to have a place to get option #2. Since I'm in a small town in Rural Montana, there aren't a lot of great golf shops.

Lead Tape,

That's not bad either. How many courses or ranges have that available? How many courses or ranges even have an up to date fitting cart with a pro that knows what he's doing or takes the time to go onto the range to fit someone? Usually if there is a cart (Ping, Callaway, Hogan, etc.)

the golfer asks if he can take a club or two on the range to try out and many times it doesn't come back.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers

      Electrolytes

      By Elmer · Posted

      Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.

      LIV Golf Now Closed?

      By imsys0042 · Posted

      So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon

      My Swing (saevel25)

      It is a known technique, similar to the armed forces box technique. They use a 4x4 , in through the nose and out through the mouth. I use it to go to sleep fairly often. It works for me
