24 views ain't a whole lot. Obviously some people don't have some comments. Not a big deal...

Since you're so desperate for opinions, here's my honest opinion: I've hated every paint job you've put on that club. They're ugly, hideous, and downright unplayable in my opinion. Also,who cares? If you like it, keep doing it.

+1000. If you absolutely must paint that club over & over, how's about doing something that actually might look good? Do some NFL team logo or something similar. I think most people wont comment because they tend to subscribe to the old saying of "if you don't have anything nice to say, then say nothing".

I'm down for a hate too. Why paint the club at all? How could you possibly concentrate on the shot with... that sitting behind your ball?

Quit with the swirly pattern. Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should. Looks awful. Something simple but stylish would be far better.

Pic #4 looks like it is a heat shrink vinyl. I think I see a crease , fold, or a bump at the shaft-club connection. I like it but do you paint something then put "it on" the club or what?
I have a 30" cutter to mess around with with and that happens when I apply the vinyl sometimes.

    • 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.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
