My clicgear 3.0 I went away from walking because of a bad back and carrying was getting to hard. This has made it so I can walk again without my back getting to bad

Do not buy the Golfsmith groove restoration tool. I purchased one, used it on my old Ping Eye 2 wedge and the tool cutting blades (six of them) went flat before even making a dent in the grooves. Maybe it took the dirt out of the grooves but a screw driver worked better; $20 down the drain.

I really like the Orange Whip.   It's great for limbering up before playing and helps with rhythm.

I have the Medicus 5 iron but I can still swing outside to in after using it.  I can swing it without the hinges breaking down but still slice the ball.  I'm not sure I'm getting my $$ out of it.

I have a three wheel golf cart that works well.

Laser Range Finder - whenever I'm in between yardage markers and/or at an angle near or into the rough, I don't EVER have to guess my distance to ANYTHING.  FWIW, I use a Bushnell Medalist.  It's not difficult to use - meaning you don't have to have the steadiest of hands - due to it's pin-seeker technology that recognizes smaller objects that are vastly closer that other objects in the range of view, like the trees 50 yards behind it.  If your pins have reflectors, it doesn't even matter, it's ALWAYS dialed in.  It does help - sometimes when I  will play at a course that doesn't have them, I will have to be a little more steady and it will take a second before the pin-seeker indicator in the viewfinder confirms that I'm indeed on the pin.  At my home course there are reflectors, and it's a simple as point and shoot and it's dialed in as long as I'm not trying to do it while I'm walking, bobbing all over the place.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.
