Just received my Callaway X2 3-wood...

(why does the box say "preowned"?)

I can't wait to try it out this weekend.

I will write up a review within the next couple of weeks.

Before I saw the pictures, it sounded like the box had an enormous "PREOWNED" label slapped ontop of it. If I had to guess, putting the website there is to advertise that they sell preowned clubs as well as new ones.

That is a sweet looking club, congrats!

When do we get to hear how that thing works?  I would be interested to hear how it stacks up against your SLDR.

Mark Crossfield has a comparison video between the sldr and bertha I think. If I remember right they were pretty darn similar. I'm in the market for a new driver if you don't like that one my good friend Matt :-P:beer:

Nice review!

Is it going to replace your SLDR, or function more as a reminder for the SLDR that you have options if it chooses to act up? B-)

Right now they are both in the bag, so I am pulling a Phil right now, TWO DRIVERS BABY!!!

Honestly, I think I might be gaming this Big Bertha for a while. If it keeps going well, I might actually pull the Fujikura Shaft out of my SLDR and see if I can get a Callaway Adapter for it. I still prefer a slightly heavier shaft.

Yea, I like how the Bertha driver performs. I'll have to go make an excuse to visit the golfsmith to get some numbers. Would be interesting to see the differences.

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.

      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.
