Played 18 today at a course I hadn't been to yet. Slope rating of 121 with very narrow fairways, plenty of water & tall grassy areas to lose balls in. Didn't risk losing the Bridgestones on the tougher holes, leave those to the D2's of which I did manage to lose 3 today. Anyways I had a few really nice fairway shots with my 3 wood & the Bridgestone E-6's really seemed to get more distance than the D2's. Maybe it's just a placebo effect since I seriously doubt my own abilities or lack thereof to actually gauge a difference between balls. But as of right now I am sold on the E-6's & will be using them from now on.

Oh yea score was nothing great, 48 on front & a 50 on the back but considering I have only been playing for 2 months I am relatively happy with that for now.

I play the V1X, though the 2007 V1 is pretty awesome.

I recently tried out the Srixons and loved it so I bought myself some and they are great value. I used to use the Callaway HX Hot which were great balls too.

I have been playing the new pro v. I have now played the last month with them and cannot be more satisfied. Dallas has been getting a lot of rain than usually and with the wet courses they still played good.

I play Callaway HX Tour 56 normally. I'm suprised nobody has mentioned them yet. $10 less than pro v1 and superior spin off irons and wedges in my opinion. I also bought some d2 Feel the other day but havent put them into play yet.

Ive been playing Precept Laddies this season. Got a few dozen of them for a pretty good deal after I heard some good things about them. They are actually a pretty decent ball for the price.

I just got a new 56 spin milled and it shreds the hell out of all my golf balls, including some NXT Tours I got for my birthday. Phenomenal wedges though.

    • Day 65: Played 18. Decent round with the exception of two doubles. 
    • Went back to feeling the hands slowing down and stopping at A3. Feel a significant pause at A3. Hands down towards the ground. I get the mental image of Morikawa with how he pauses at the top of the swing, but then really rips at it.  For me, I have to  grip the club about 5° open. Or at least what looks like. With the driver, it’s another story. A bit of a regression here. Lots of John Daly– esque over swing. Lots of  shallowing with the body. If I try to send the club behind me with the hands going down to the ground. I have a bad habit of timing that with an over swing. So, I had to go back to feeling a significant positive again to control the back swing length. Then I went back to try to bring the back of the right hand down to my right hip. It feels stupidly, awkward. Like no flow to the swing. But from A6 through impact  feels more effortless. Now I’m hitting some decent push cuts this way. In the swing feels like it has no speed. But, it’s probably better overall. something I noticed that is way different from my irons to my driver is that with my irons I can keep my eyes looking at the ball much better through the downswing. With the driver, I find it pretty much impossible to do. Will post some videos later.
    • The text, in case Elon ever kills Twitter (more than he already has): Quick 18-hole game you can play on a launch monitor: Write 90, 95, 100, 105… 175 on 18 balls. Put them in a bag, pick one out, try to carry the ball the listed distance. Scoring: - ≤ 1 yd, Eagle - 1.1 - 3 yds, Birdie - 3.1 - 6 yds, Par - 6.1 - 9 yds, Bogey - > 9 yards, Double Of course, you don't have to do it with 18 balls; you can use slips of paper, etc. You could also set a start and end point and randomly generate 18 numbers, and play to those yardages. But… let's see some scores? Let's see what people get. The nice thing is… you only need a Mevo level device.
    • He's entertaining. I still don't "like" him, and he has said a lot of stupid shit over the years, recently about the LIV stuff and the OWGR, etc. TikTok is infinitely more evil than Bryson.
    • I have a full day of house hotel (not true, I went to Golf Evolution before 7am and just got home: four hours of work and 40 minutes of practice) and I'm primed to watch the U.S. Open.
